On February 9, Jang Wonyoung finally finished high school by graduating from the School of Performing Arts Seoul (SOPA) located in Guro-gu, Seoul. Unfortunately, she wasn't able to attend the ceremony due to her busy schedule.
Despite this, she was able to convey her feelings about her high school graduation through an official press article released by Starship Entertainment.
"I'm grateful to everyone who congratulated me on my graduation. I'm sorry I couldn't meet my friends and teachers in person, but I really want to say thank you.
I still can't believe that I'm turning 20 after high school, and it's awkward, but now that I'm an adult, I'll show you a lot of maturity and growth with more responsibility for each action.
I ask for your love and interest in the future."
