Most of the negative comments on Chinese social networks are directed at the most popular member of the IVE group. Many people call Jang Won Young a “greasy idol” because she always appears with glossy, plump makeup and a dreamy, lovely expression.
“I’ve never seen anyone wink while eating”, “The facial expressions are so greasy, there’s nothing like that in the other members”, “I know idols try to maintain a good image in the public’s eyes, but It’s too much to do like this, it’s frustrating to watch”, “I was going to buy pizza, but watching Jang Won Young’s commercials doesn’t taste good anymore”… Chinese netizens criticized the 4th gen female idol’s expression.
The female idol was once criticized for eating strawberries.
Previously, Jang Won Young was criticized for her elegant way of eating. On the show The Manager, IVE members gathered to chat and eat strawberries. Jang Won Young attracted attention for holding strawberries to eat with two hands, chewing lightly, looking straight at the camera and “acting beautifully”.
Before the controversy, the gen Z singer explained that because the strawberry was so big, she had no choice but to hold it with two hands.
Jang Won Young was born in 2004, standing out with a height of 1.73 m. She became famous following taking first place in the program Produce 48 in 2018 and debuting with the group IZ * ONE.
After IZ*ONE disbanded in 2021, the female idol returned to Starship management company and worked with group IVE. She is praised for her beautiful appearance but limited ability. In January, the beauty was “exposed” for lip-syncing and was criticized for being weak in art, focusing only on her appearance.
