Korean Singer HyunA Collapses On Stage at Macau Music Festival
South Korean singer HyunA fainted while performing at the Waterbomb 2025 music festival in Macau on Sunday, November 9. She was in the middle of her hit song "Bubble Pop!" when she suddenly collapsed.
Immediate Response and Impact
Backup dancers quickly assisted her, and security carried her off the stage. The concert was paused temporarily due to the incident.
Health Concerns and Background
HyunA’s collapse has sparked concerns about her health, with speculation linking it to her rapid weight loss. She recently lost 10 kilograms (about 22 pounds) in one month through a strict diet after facing pregnancy rumors following her October 2024 marriage.
In 2020, HyunA was diagnosed with vasovagal syncope, a condition that causes sudden drops in blood pressure and heart rate, often triggered by stress, fatigue, or extreme dieting.
Medical experts note that fast weight loss can cause nutritional imbalances and exhaustion, possibly contributing to her fainting.
