HyunA Faints on Stage in Macau, Later Reassures Fans
K-pop singer HyunA experienced a medical scare during her performance at the Waterbomb Festival in Macau on Sunday. She suddenly collapsed on stage while performing her 2011 hit “Bubble Pop.” Her dancers quickly came to her aid, and a bodyguard carried her off the stage as the show came to an abrupt halt.
Moments later, social media was flooded with messages of concern from her fans, who anxiously awaited updates about her health. HyunA addressed her supporters later through Instagram, assuring them that she was recovering and feeling much better.
“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. I just want to say thank you for admiring, cherishing, and loving me since I was very young, even though I’ve always been lacking. Don’t worry about me.”
Her fainting episode is believed to be linked to vasovagal syncope, a condition she has struggled with for years that can cause frequent blackouts and extreme emotional distress. Some fans also speculated that her recent rapid 10 kg weight loss from a strict diet might have contributed to the incident.
