IVE's Jang Wonyoung is facing growing concerns from her fans as health issues continue to appear during her busy schedule.
Recently, multiple signs of declining health have caught the attention of fans, sparking fears for the young idol.
Jang Wonyoung, one of the busiest members of IVE, has been juggling a jam-packed calendar filled with group activities for their third mini album IVE Empathy, fan meetings, advertising shoots, and international events. Industry experts have even noted that she is one of the most spotlighted K-pop idols right now.
Despite her incredible work ethic, fans are becoming increasingly worried as they've noticed troubling signs at recent events.
Last year, Jang Wonyoung faced recurring eye styes, which happened more than four times while working. Despite this, she completed her performances while wearing an eye patch, and even earned praise for handling the situation with grace.
She explained to fans, "When I woke up in the morning, one of my eyes felt really weird, and when I looked in the mirror, I found a stye. I wanted to make my eye patch cute, so I got some stickers and made it look adorable." Her calm attitude impressed many fans.
However, at Paris Fashion Week, fans noticed her eyes appeared swollen, with more pronounced double eyelids, which led some to wonder whether she had undergone cosmetic surgery.
She also revealed skin allergies, which left marks visible while wearing an off-shoulder dress, raising more concerns.
Adding to the worries, Jang Wonyoung was seen with black lines on her nails in a recent photo, which she made while gesturing toward the camera.
While these vertical lines can sometimes be harmless, they could also signal a more serious illness like melanoma, though it's important to note that such cases are rare.
To make matters worse, fans spotted broken blood vessels in her eyes, and during a recent fan concert, the marks from an IV drip on her arm were also seen, heightening concerns for her health.
In addition, it was revealed that Jang Wonyoung gained around 5 kg recently. While her new look was praised as natural, many fans are now wondering if the weight gain is linked to her health issues. Some believe it could be a way to improve her condition.
Despite these troubling signs, Jang Wonyoung continues to be known for her calm, stable demeanor in tough situations.
Unlike other idols who have struggled with health issues or on-site disruptions, she is admired for her ability to keep things together.
Fans, who’ve always seen her as a positive figure, are now questioning if her health is quietly suffering behind the scenes.
Fans hope she takes care of herself and gets the rest and treatment she needs to stay healthy.
