In particular, the post drew internet users' curiosity if what is the relationship between Wonyoung and Lee Joo Young. This is because this is not the first time that the two female personalities were seen together.

In the past, the chaebol also shared photos of Wonyoung on her SNS and would even comment on the "Love Dive" singer's IG, and vice versa. According to K-pop fans, the two also did pilates together.

Amid this, some netizens also expressed curiosity if Jang Wonyoung is also from a generation of "chaebol". In context, a " chaebol" is a rich business family; or conglomerate.

But it is most likely that Wonyoung just enjoyed a casual friendship with Lee Joo Young. Actually, Lee, the granddaughter of the Daelim group which is one of Korea's leading corporations is known for her interaction and closeness with multiple K-pop idols regardless of status.

In the past, she became the center of envy for living the "y/n" life for her meetings with BIGBANG, BLACKPINK, Girls' Generation, Wanna One, and more.
