HyunA's tears were not just a display of vulnerability but also a testament to the genuine emotions artists experience behind the glamour. She revealed that her recent song "ATTITUDE" was inspired by Uhm Junghwa's resilience and attitude, symbolizing a tribute to her mentor's impact on her career and mindset.

Expressing her gratitude, HyunA thanked Uhm Junghwa for being a source of inspiration during challenging times.

"Meeting you was like finding a four-leaf clover. I feel very lucky to have found someone like you. Thank you, unnie,"

HyunA emotionally expressed, highlighting the profound impact of mentorship and support in the entertainment industry.

Meanwhile, HyunA is facing backlash from her fans for continuing to date Yong Junhyung following the release of a BBC documentary on the "Burning Sun" scandal.

The documentary detailed serious crimes including sexual violence and illegal filming involving K-pop idols. Fans spotted Yong Junhyung in photos from HyunA's Japan trip, leading to disappointment and accusations of hypocrisy.

While HyunA previously had strong fan support for her relationships, her association with Yong, who admitted to sharing illicit videos, has caused her to lose many supporters. Fans are particularly upset given HyunA's advocacy for women's rights.
