Many IVE fans, or DIVE as they are called, have agreed to an online forum post about Jang Wonyoung and her haters nitpicking everything the "It girl' does or wear. The poster speculated that if Jang Wonyoung did THIS that another member did, she would get so much hate.
What was it that made a DIVE thought like that? Read on!
Does IVE Wonyoung Get Unnecessary Hate?
In a PANN post, a fan noticed that Gaeul, IVE's eldest member, is the only one wearing a white dress. Because of that, they wrote in the article that if it was Jang Wonyoung, people would flock to the photo and swear at the young successful idol for having a dress that made her "stand out" from the rest of the group.
The photo was from their Music Core performance where the monster rookie girl group won the trophy. All the other members except Gaeul were wearing black and silver/gray outfits while the eldest IVE member was in a white dress.
The poster said that haters will say that Starship is only pushing her and making her stand out from the rest.
To this, many commenters agreed. They already know how Jang Wonyoung's haters think and have given many other examples of an event like this.
"That's exactly what they'll sayㅋㅋㅋ but Jang Wonyoung's clothes here suck so bad..."
"I f**king agreeㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ they just want to hate on Jang Wonyoung so their eyes are already automatically looking for her"
"For real, when Gaeul was wearing that peacock? outfit during Love Dive, nobody said anything and when Leeseo wore that dangly white outfit in Eleven, nobody said anything. But if Jang Wonyoung was the one wearing those, people would've gone crazy"
"Last time, the members wore outfits with clearly different colors but Jang Wonyoung had a ribbon in her hair and she had people attack her in a post with over 1,000 upvotes for a whole day"
"This is a no-brainerㅋㅋㅋ"
Meanwhile, there was one comment who spotted Liz's appearance and commented that the idol is not as "fat" as other K-pop fans make her out to be.
"Liz is f*cking skinny so why are people hating on her so much? They are seriously mentally deranged."
On the other hand, there are also those who noticed the outfit that Jang Wonyoung wore and said that it was not as appealing as her previous clothes for the "After LIKE" promotions.
There were fans that asked if IVE recently changed their stylists because the clothes they were on their first two promotions were not this bad and were actually really nice.
Also, in relation to the hate Jang Wonyoung's outfits get, fans defended the young idol by saying none of those was her fault.
It is the stylists who pick their clothes and fans should not hate her for it. Many DIVEs automatically think that Wonyoung will receive a pretty dress once in a while because she is the center of the group, so it is a given.
What do you think of the situation?
