IVE's Wonyoung to Skip Out on the CSAT For Second Year

Singer Jang Wonyoung is focusing on her IVE group activities for the time being.

According to the news on September 30, Jang Wonyoung will not take the 2024 College Scholastic Ability Test, which will take place on November 16.

Earlier, Jang Won-young was eligible for the 2023 CSAT, which took place last year, but did not take the test due to her willingness to concentrate on her activities. It is known that she has decided to focus on activities even before the CSAT this year. Whether or not to enter college will be decided after further discussion when the time comes to focus on college life.

Not only Jang Won-young but also member Liz, who is the same age in 2004, did not take the CSAT last year. Ahn Yu-jin, the leader of IVE, born in 2003, was also a candidate for the 2021 College Scholastic Ability Test, but she did not take the test and focused on her debut activities.

Meanwhile, IVE released "Either Way," one of the triple title tracks of its first mini album "I'VE MINE," on September 25, drawing love from music fans.

IVE will then release its second title track, Off the Record, on October 6. All of the first mini album "I'VE MINE," including the last title song will be released on October 13. Prior to the release of the second title song, the first world tour Seoul performance "SHOW WHAT I HAVE" will be held at Jamsil Indoor Gymnasium in Songpa-gu, Seoul from October 7-8.

IVE, which began its official activities with its first single "ELEVEN" in December 2021, has grown into a fourth-generation flagship group with a succession of second single "LOVE DIVE," third single "After LIKE," and first full-length album double titles "Kitsch" and "I AM."
