Singer HyunA fainted on Sunday while performing “Bubble Pop” at the Waterbomb 2025 Macau music festival, causing the show to be paused immediately. Videos show dancers rushing to assist her as she lost consciousness, with a security guard carrying her offstage.
Fans expressed concern following the incident, especially since HyunA recently disclosed losing 10 kilograms in just one month amid rumors of weight gain and possible pregnancy. She has a history of vasovagal fainting due to sudden drops in heart rate or blood pressure, along with other health issues.
HyunA has mentioned before that her stamina declines sharply and she collapses when her weight drops below 45 kilograms.
“I’m really sorry. It was a short break between performances, but I wanted to show you my best. I don’t remember anything that happened, and I feel like I wasn’t professional.”
She added, “I’ll try to build my strength and keep working hard. It would be great if everything went the way I want, but I’ll try. I want to thank you for loving and supporting me from when I was so young until now.”
This report is based on an article from the Hankook Ilbo, translated by generative AI and edited by The Korea Times.
