K-pop fans were delighted by how IVE Jang Wonyoung wittily and classily responded to a crush-related question.
On April 29, IVE appeared on the YouTube channel WIRED for an "Autocomplete Interview."
In this segment, the six members then answered the internet's most searched questions about themselves.
Who Is IVE Jang Wonyoung's Crush? Idol Sends DIVEs in Frenzy With Her Reply
In particular, she was given a cardboard that contained the most searched questions related to her.
When she opened the first one, it said, "Jang Wonyoung crush." Technically, fans are searching for "Who's Jang Wonyoung's crush?" or someone she's interested in.
One wrong answer and it would escalate to a dating rumor — but undoubtedly, Jang Wonyoung is a true professional and rather than directly replying to it, she wittily threw the question back and said:
"Crush? What does this mean? Like, you have a crush on me or something like that? Crush on me means like, 'You have fallen for me.' So maybe DIVEs have a crush on me. Okay. Come on."
“jang wonyoung… crush?? what does this mean? like… you have a crush on me, or something like that?” “hmm” 😭 YOU ALL KNOW DAMN WELL

Hilariously, when you look for the same question on Google, fan edits of K-pop idols having a crush on Jang Wonyoung were only the results!
When this certain part went viral on the X platform, K-pop fans were rolling in laughter at how she smoothly turned the question upside down to dodge it. Rather than panicking and being flustered, she was quick to think of a suitable response to it.
Nevertheless, fans were also saying that she's not entirely wrong though, since DIVEs truly have a crush on her!

Jang Wonyoung Reveals Her Favorite Food, English Name
As the interview went on, Jang was also asked about her favorite food and she answered:
"We (all) know, it's steak! I'm very happy in the U.S. because they are known for their good steak. Also, I like sweets like cheesecake and chocolate fudge or something."
Another question that she answered was her nickname. At this time, she revealed her English name which is also her alias, saying:
"My nickname is Vicky. I often use it in the U.S. because my English name was Vicky when I was younger. I love (being called) Vicky."
On the other hand, IVE to which Jang Wonyoung belongs just made a comeback on the 29th with their second EP album, "IVE SWITCH."
The new album is a signal of expansion that shows "another me," and is an album in which IVE, who has shown clear colors, tells a new story in their own style.
It comprised a total of six songs, including the double title tracks, "HEYA" and "Accendio" as well as b-sidetrack, "Blue Heart," "Ice Queen," "WOW" and "RESET."
