K-Pop star HyunA, 33, drew concern from fans worldwide after collapsing on stage during a live performance at the Waterbomb 2025 festival in Macau, China. The former Wonder Girls singer and solo artist, known for hits like Bubble Pop and Lip & Hip, was carried offstage by security after falling mid-performance on November 9, 2025.

A viral TikTok video captured the moment when HyunA, who had just turned her back to the audience during a dance routine, suddenly collapsed. Dancers immediately rushed to assist her, and the audience watched in alarm as she was helped offstage.

HyunA Addresses the Incident on Social Media

Shortly after the incident, HyunA posted on Instagram, sharing a black square accompanied by a heartfelt message to her fans. According to a translation reported by NME, she wrote:

“I’m sorry for not being able to perform as professionally as I wanted to. Honestly, I don’t remember anything. Many fans from Macao came [to see the performance], and of course, my fans too. Everyone came all the way to Macao, and I’m so sorry. I’ll improve my stamina and continue giving my best.”

HyunA concluded her post reassuring fans:

“Don’t worry about me. I hope everyone has a good night. Good night.”

Concerns About Weight Loss Sparked Alarm

The incident comes just days after HyunA shared a social media post that raised concerns about her rapid weight loss. In a recent Instagram photo, she showed her bruised and cut feet on a scale, with her weight reportedly dipping below 50 kg (110 lbs.). She joked about “changing the first digit of her weight,” which led fans to speculate she may have lost roughly 10 kg (around 20 lbs.) in a month.

Given her history of vasovagal syncope—a condition where a sudden drop in heart rate and blood pressure can cause fainting—fans were quick to connect her weight loss with her onstage collapse. HyunA has previously shared that she is prone to fainting if her weight drops below 45 kg, a common risk factor associated with her condition.

HyunA’s Health History and Fan Support

HyunA has been open about her struggles with fainting and stamina, emphasizing the importance of monitoring her health. The incident highlights the physical demands placed on K-Pop performers, who often endure rigorous dance routines and tight schedules while maintaining strict weight standards.

Fans worldwide have expressed concern and support, sending messages of encouragement on social media. Many are hoping for HyunA’s full recovery and greater attention to her health moving forward.
