Jang Da Ah Confesses To Lacking An Important Skill As A Celebrity

In the Korean entertainment industry, there is a particular set of skills that all celebrities are expected to know aside from their main craft. These skills can be anything from public speaking to posing to composure.

Jang Da Ah, the sister of IVE’s Wonyoung, has been in the buzz ever since she was announced to be debuting as an actor. Initially, there were doubts surrounding her debut, but with her first drama, Pyramid Game, Jang has managed to garner positive reactions from viewers who praised her acting skills and on-screen visuals.

However, the actress has been honest about one skill she seems to be lacking that is essential for celebrities these days — the selfie-taking skill. Recently, she sent fans multiple messages on a communication app, confessing how inadept she is in the craft, after she shared a selfie with them on her Instagram.

Ah, I’m really bad at taking selfies.

If I take one without thinking, it’d be disastrous. Haha.

Fans, who would usually oppose such a claim from their favorite celebrity, were instead humored by this and ended up posting side-by-side pictures of how her visuals appear different in selfies.

Netizens were endeared by Jang’s inability to take selfies and even joked that maybe Wonyoung should come to her sister’s rescue.
