IVE’s Wonyoung Looks Completely Different With Heavy VS Light Makeup, Netizens Weigh In

IVE’s Jang Wonyoung is no stranger to going viral for her visuals, but this time, it’s a side-by-side comparison that’s stirring debate — and netizens are making their preferences known.

Recently, posts comparing Wonyoung’s makeup styles began circulating on online forums and social media. One featured her with bold, glamorous stage makeup — thick eyeliner, sharp contours, and vibrant lips.

She often goes heavy on eyelashes in these cases.

The other pictures showed her with a softer, more natural look, with minimal base, light blush, and barely-there eye makeup.

In such cases, she tends to use pastel tones and only mascara.

While both looks highlight her doll-like features, most netizens agreed: Wonyoung truly shines with lighter makeup. Some noted that the heavy makeup, though suitable for performances, can sometimes overpower her youthful charm.

• Pretty.
• Wonyoung is f*cking gorgeous.
• Whenever I see her, her skin is out of this world. She doesn’t have pores.
• Makeup is one thing, but I think when she has thinner bangs, she’s prettier. She looks the best without bangs.
• Her face is different from back then, so when she has lighter makeup, it looks good like this.

This isn’t the first time Wonyoung’s visuals have become a hot topic, but the general consensus seems to be: less is more when it comes to enhancing the idol’s already perfect face.
