Fans love the interaction!
New Jeans grew unexpectedly IVE‘S Jang Wonyoung during a recent broadcast.
Recently, NewJeans’ main source of communication with fans has been the Phoneing app. On the platform, idols can send messages and hold live streams, one of which recently received some criticism.

At one point during the stream, the group mentions the “Lucky Vicky” meme. The concept originated from Jang Wonyoung, whose English name is Vicky, and is based on her positive mindset of always thinking that she is lucky, regardless of circumstances.

It’s a boring Thursday, but thanks to ‘M Countdown’, if I could last just one more day, it would be the weekend! I am absolutely one lucky Vicky.

The members talk about how Wonyoung created the concept, with the members calling her a princess at one point.
Minji: It’s so cute!
Years: She is a princess, she is simply a princess
Years: All our sunbaenim are princesses, everyone is a princess
Fans loved the unexpected mention of Wonyoung during the broadcast and I completely agree with NewJeans’ thoughts!
Wonyoung is truly a princess https://t.co/nahUKtWPz9
