Singer HyunA collapsed during her performance at the Waterbomb 2025 Macau music festival, leading to an immediate stop of the show. She later reassured fans through social media.
On Sunday, while performing “Bubble Pop,” HyunA fainted onstage. Videos show dancers quickly coming to her aid and a security guard carrying her off.
Fans expressed concern due to HyunA’s recent weight loss of 10 kilograms in one month, amid rumors of weight gain and pregnancy. She has a history of vasovagal fainting, caused by sudden drops in heart rate or blood pressure, along with other health issues.
HyunA previously mentioned that her energy dramatically decreases and she tends to collapse when her weight falls below 45 kilograms.
