Jang Won-young, who has been embroiled in controversy over her way of eating strawberries in an entertainment show, is being criticized by netizens again for trivial reasons.
On Sep 19th, IVE’s episode of the “2 Days 1 Night” spin-off entertainment show “2 Days Idol Night” was uploaded on YouTube’s “KBS Kpop.”
Since then, an article titled “Jang Won-young is mean” has been posted on the online community Nate Pann, sparking controversy over Jang Won-young’s personality again.
In the post, the author criticized Jang Won-young for compromising with the members to change her team, and that she only proceeded with everything in her favor.
In the video, IVE, who traveled to Chuncheon, was seen enjoying special tourism experiences such as canoeing at Mullegil and cable car riding on Samaksan Lake.
IVE filmed with the concept of freshmen who just entered college. The members were divided into Romantic and Youth teams, and each had to choose between a canoe and cable car experience.
All members chose to experience cable cars. In response, the production team proposed a 3:3 game of lucky draw.
The members who selected the Romantic team and were chosen to experience canoeing in the first drawing result were Jang Won-young, Gaeul, and Leeseo. The remaining members, Ahn Yu-jin, Rei, and Liz chose the Youth team and got to ride the cable car as they wanted.
The members of the Romantic team expressed their envy toward the members of the Youth team. Jang Won-young continued to worry, checking with the production team again, saying, “But is this canoe really the canoe in the water?”
However, when Liz said, “I do want to try Romantic,” Jang Won-young handed Liz her canoe paddle with ‘Romantic’ written on it, saying, “Then change it with me.” Liz and Jang Won-young asked, “Can we change? I want to try canoeing,” and “If we can, how about we exchange team with each other?” and suggested exchanging their teams.
Jang Won-young and Liz eventually switched teams.
However, when the members of her team were the same as the previous game, Ahn Yu-jin decided to pick the team again for fun. Liz also seemed to agree with Ahn Yu-jin, asking, “Should we pick again?”
In the previous game, the members were divided into Ahn PD team and Writer Gaeul team. At that time, Ahn Yoo-jin, Rei, and Jang Won-young belonged to the Ahn PD team, while Leeseo, Gaeul, and Liz belonged to the Writer Gaeul team.
Later, in the second random draw, Ahn Yu-jin, Rei, and Leeseo went to the Romantic team while Jang Won-young, Gaeul, and Liz became the Youth team.
The netizen who wrote the criticizing post of Jang Won-young said, “At first, she showed that she didn’t like canoeing, and when Liz said she wanted to canoe, she snatched the chance and changed to her choice,” adding, “Then the staff mixed the canoe paddles again while she looked at the barrel. After that, she quickly picked a paddle of the Youth team she had seen in advance and rode the cable car as she wanted,” they pointed out.
