South Korean singer HyunA raised alarm among fans when she collapsed during her performance at the Waterbomb 2025 Macau festival. The 33-year-old artist fainted while performing her hit song "Bubble Pop," just weeks after revealing she lost 10 kilograms in one month.
“Suddenly lost consciousness during her act. Her backup dancers quickly came to her aid, and a security guard carried her off the stage.”
Following the incident, HyunA apologized to her fans, addressing concerns about her health linked to the drastic weight loss she recently disclosed. The Korea Times reported that she achieved this rapid loss through a very strict diet regimen.
Experts have warned that sudden and extreme weight loss can cause fatigue, dizziness, and nutritional deficiencies, which may have contributed to HyunA’s onstage collapse.
After marrying fellow singer Yong Junhyung last year, HyunA faced persistent pregnancy rumors due to slight changes in her appearance caused by weight gain. According to Chosunbiz, the pressure from this scrutiny prompted her to start a strict diet on October 3.
“The scrutiny led her to start a strict diet plan on October 3.”
