Fans Call Out Starship Entertainment For Neglecting IVE’s Wonyoung Using Protest Trucks — Netizens Are In Full Support
Fans have recently been concerned for IVE’s Wonyoung, due to her arm injury that flew under the radar.
It was belatedly revealed that Wonyoung had sustained an arm injury on the set of “I AM,” leading her to get several stitches on her elbow. She later returned to the set to complete the filming. Fans wondered why the company did not address the matter. They called our Starship Entertainment for even going as far as removing videos that revealed the matter.
Her Chinese fans took things a step further, sending protest trucks to raise attention for the issue. They demanded that Starship Entertainment provide an appropriate response.

The truck will stay at the company daily until a satisfactory response is given.
Amongst issues raised is the fact that Starship Entertainment failed to protect Wonyoung from online rumors and bullying.
- We held it in even though you’ve been neglecting her since 2021. We can’t hold back anymore.
- Don’t stay silent about the cyber witch-hunt, malicious rumors, and comments any longer, Starship.
- Did Starship request for the video about her injury to be taken down? Stop taking us for fools and making us trust you less.
- Although you don’t post anything about legal actions, you guys immediately delete anything that insults Starship. Just who’s management are you?
- Starship only serves to block their artists’ paths. Repay them with the appropriate support and actions.

Netizens have expressed their agreement with the fans
- Wonyoung really needs to be suing.
- Things were really bad for Wonyoung… It’s shocking that they never posted anything about legal action…
- It was really bad for Wonyoung. Are they even taking legal action?
- It was so bad for her. They have to be suing.
- Seeing how Starship takes down anything badmouthing the company within an hour, it renders me speechless.
- Please post something official about legal action, f*ck. I’m so annoyed at this crazy company.
- When Wonyoung comes up, I’m so frustrated… Even though her schedule is killer, she just keeps silent saying that it couldn’t be helped, and even on the normal, she doesn’t let her emotions show. Because if she does, people around her will have things hard.
- Please sue them. Until when do we have to keep forgiving the losers who attack her from the corners of their rooms?
Starship Entertainment has yet to respond to the issue.
