MACAU \u2013 South Korean singer Hyuna sparked further concerns over her health when she collapsed during a music festival in Macau on Nov 9.<\/p>\n
In videos circulating on social media, the 33-year-old K-pop star was performing her hit song Bubble Pop!\u00a0(2011) at Waterbomb Macau when she fainted.<\/p>\n
Two backup dancers rushed to her aid before she was carried off the stage by a security staff member.<\/p>\n
The former member of K-pop groups such as Wonder Girls, 4Minute and Triple H took to Instagram later on Nov 9 to apologise to fans and assure them she is fine.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m truly sorry,\u201d she wrote in Korean. \u201cIt was only a short time since my last performance, but I wanted to show you my best side.\u201d<\/p>\n
Hyuna said she had no recollection of the fainting, and apologised again to fans in Macau who had paid to watch her performance.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll try to build up my stamina and work hard consistently,\u201d she wrote. \u201cIt will be so great if everything goes my way, but I\u2019ll try my best.\u201d<\/p>\n
Hyuna, whose full name is Kim Hyun-ah, caused worry among her followers after an Instagram post on Oct 3 about her eating habits and weight.<\/p>\n
\u201cHyun-ah, you ate way too much,\u201d she wrote then, addressing herself in the third person. \u201cLet\u2019s snap out of it and go on a strict diet. You liked being skinny, right? Let\u2019s do it again.\u201d<\/p>\n
She then revealed on Instagram on Nov 4 that she had lost about 10kg in a month, sharing a photo of a weighing machine showing her weight of about 49kg.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s so hard to change the first digit from the 50s,\u201d she wrote. \u201cI still have a long way to go. How much have you eaten all this time, Kim Hyun-ah?\u201d<\/p>\n
Hyuna tied the knot with South Korean singer Yong Jun-hyung, 35,\u00a0in October 2024.<\/p>\n
In August 2020, she delayed the release of her comeback single Good Girl,\u00a0and subsequently the release of her full studio album, I\u2019m Not Cool, to January 2021.<\/p>\n
Her then label P Nation said it was due to vasovagal syncope, a type of fainting spell caused by a fall in blood pressure because of dehydration or standing for too long.<\/p>\n
Hyuna also revealed on social media in November 2019 that she has been suffering from depression and panic disorder.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"MACAU \u2013 South Korean singer Hyuna sparked further concerns over her health when she collapsed during a music…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":127922,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[156,263,157,111,139,69,4790,50469],"class_list":["post-127921","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-entertainment","tag-lifestyle","tag-music","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz","tag-south-korea","tag-the-straits-times"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/127921","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=127921"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/127921\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/127922"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=127921"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=127921"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=127921"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
