Jang Da Ah stated that she didn’t want people to know her as Wonyoung‘s sister.
On March 28, Jang Da Ah’s interview with SPOTV News was released. During the interview, Jang Da Ah spoke about acting in Pyramid Game.
I’ve dreamt about becoming an actor for a long time. I am grateful to have been able to debut through a good project and a good character. I am so thankful and I was so happy filming it.

Jang Da Ah then revealed what feedback she received from her sister, world icon Jang Wonyoung.
She didn’t really give me any special feedback. I am just happy that my family enjoyed the drama.

When asked about being known as Wonyoung’s sister, Jang Da Ah stated that she had accepted it but that it wasn’t due to her choice.
It had been revealed (that I was her sister) when I was becoming known. I’ve accepted that this could happen, even if it wasn’t my choice. I feel like that title would disappear once I make a name for myself as an actor. Of course, this isn’t something that I wanted from the beginning.

The actor then stated again that if it had been up to her, she would have kept the fact that she had a famous sister secret.
I didn’t want anyone to know. The fact that people know has nothing to do with my wishes.

Jang Da Ah’s comments quickly went viral, with many expressing conflicting views. While some felt the actress was ungrateful, others defended Jang Da Ah.
- Lol, the only reason she’s an actor is because of media play revealing that she is Wonyoung’s sister.
- There are so many twisted comments. Do you guys really have nothing to do?
- The comment section here f@cking sucks. You guys are idiots for not being able to take her words at face value.
- This is pretty hypocritical, though.
- She’s only known because she is Wonyoung’s sister. I am still surprised when I see her ad on some fashion sites.
- Wow, what is up with these comments? So many professionals that are stuck at home, lol.
- I mean, why is everyone so upset? What she wants might not align with her agency’s plans. You guys are so twisted.
- Huh? She may not want to be known as Wonyoung’s sister. What’s wrong with that?
- To be honest, she only received attention and was cast because she is Jang Wonyoung’s sister.
What are your thoughts?
