IVE's Jang Wonyoung has garnered attention for mimicking a famous line by her older sister, actress Jang Da-a.

On the 28th, a video call between Jang Wonyoung and a fan was posted on social media. In the video, Jang Wonyoung says, "Run away, now!" and "Would you like to sit? You can listen while standing too," replicating lines from the drama "Pyramid Game" where Jang Da-a played the villain Baek Harin.

In "Pyramid Game," Jang Da-a's character, Baek Harin, is the instigator of a secret vote to determine the school’s outcasts. When Seong Suji (played by Kim Jiwon) is about to transfer schools due to her father's job change, Baek Harin tells her, "Run away, now!"

Viewers at the time praised Jang Da-a's performance with comments like, "Jang Da-a's acting gives me chills," and "Is this really her debut? She's nailing the villain role." Jang Daah herself mentioned in an interview after the show ended in April that her most memorable line was "Run away, now." She explained, "It was a line I wanted to emphasize."

With Jang Wonyoung mimicking her sister’s lines, there is growing interest in whether she might do acting as well. Last October, she appeared on the online channel and expressed, "If I get the opportunity, I'd like to try acting."

Currently, Jang Wonyoung is actively performing as the center of the group IVE. There is anticipation about whether she will venture into acting as she gains more experience and starts individual activities.

Jang Wonyoung debuted as the center of the project group IZ*ONE after being selected as a final member on Mnet’s audition program "Produce 48" in 2018. Following IZ*ONE's disbandment, she re-debuted with the six-member girl group IVE and is currently one of the most notable idols.
