IVE member Jang Wonyoung shared several Instagram photos on July 16 that appeared to reference recent criticism of her demeanor at an amusement park.
The images captured Wonyoung in a black sleeveless top winking at the camera and lying on a bed for selfies. Additional shots showed her in a hoodie zip-up striking a confident pose with arms crossed.
The posts followed an earlier incident at an amusement park where she was photographed listening to an employee with arms crossed. Netizens had criticized the gesture as dismissive, though defenders called the reaction an overinterpretation of a brief moment.
Wonyoung had faced similar comments after a prior airport encounter. Despite the backlash, she posted the new images without apparent concern.
Many observers interpreted the crossed-arms pose as a direct response to the chatter.
