Following the release of episode seven of "1,2,3 IVE," IVE's Jang Won Young has been criticized for his attitude while recording their song, 'ELEVEN.' After a period of going viral on social media and winning various music show trophies, Starship Entertainment shared a video revealing how the members recorded their debut song, "ELEVEN."
The audience paid special attention to Jang Won Young, a former member of IZ*ONE and arguably the most famous member of IVE. Unfortunately, the female idol received a negative response because of her attitude in front of the camera.
People believe he is too focused on the camera and tries to make himself look good in all his shots. While recording, Jang Won Young often stares at the camera and makes the same expressions as he does on stage in the recording booth. Fans noticed that the microphone was too far away to perfectly record her vocals, which led people to believe that her voice had been edited into the video.
Others noticed Jang Won Young's expression while talking to his members. Compared to Ahn Yujin and Leeseo who talk naturally and act as if the camera doesn't exist, Won Young tries to show off his cuteness. Others highlighted that Rei, the member he was talking to, also seemed awkward about it.
Following the video, internet users couldn't help but have mixed opinions about Jang Won Young. Many compared the IVE videos to SM Entertainment's artist videos and recordings and commented on how "unauthentic" the IVE videos were.
Some comments regarding Jang Won Young in the video read, "This is the first time I've watched a video footage that looks so fake," "Is Won Young just acting or is his personality like that?" "The microphone is only for show. Wonyoung is too busy dancing," "The microphone isn't even close to his face, and he's staring straight at the camera," "Look at Rei's resigned face," and "No wonder you're being criticized."
