The wedding announcement of HyunA with Yong Junhyung has created a stir among the fans and promoted severe criticism of singer HyunA. In her recent events and performances, the audience lacks enthusiasm. Since singer HyunA announced her wedding to Yong Junhyung who was involved in an infamous and controversial scandal, she has been facing boycotts and concert cancellations not only in South Korea but also in North America.
The reaction of the K-netizens to HyunA’s wedding announcement with Junhyung has ignited widespread criticism and backlash for her. Shockingly, HyunA’s North American concert also has been canceled amid the boycott and backlash from fans, showing the extent of the fallout.
As the singer is currently going through a difficult time, we have reflected on the challenges posed due to her wedding announced with Yong Junhyung.
A few days ago, the singer announced her wedding to Yong Junhyung in October which eventually ignited widespread criticism and backlash among the fans. The reason for the outrage is Yong Junhyung’s involvement in the s3x scandal.
Nevertheless, HyunA is experiencing significant backlash from fans and has faced a boycott at events and the cancellation of her North American concert. To note, singer HyunA performed at the Summer Night Race as a special guest singer on July 13, in Everland, Yongin, Gyeonggi-do, where she performed her popular hit songs like Red, Lip & Hip, Bubble Pop, I’m Not Cool, and her latest song Q&A. Despite singing her popular hit songs the crowd remained underwhelming and showed a lack of energy.
Several videos from the event also have surfaced on the internet, showing the lack of audience response to HyunA’s performance. However, HyunA had received an overwhelming and enthusiastic response and sing-along reactions from the fans during her events at university festivals and regional performances, but following her October wedding announcement, the crowd remained shockingly silent.
The K-netizens have attributed the boycott for HyunA’s concerts, as part of the repercussions of her wedding announcement with Yong Junhyung.
As mentioned, K-pop fans are boycotting HyunA not only in South Korea but also in North America where her international tour has been canceled. In an unexpected turn of events, the organizers of HyunA’s North America tour announced that the event had been canceled and the refunds would be issued through the mode of payment used at the time of ticket booking.
In addition, singer HyunA also takes down all the posts of her North American tour and concert-related posts from her Instagram account. But a media outlet explained that the low ticket sales led to the cancellation of HyunA’s international tour but rumors are circulating that her marriage announcement with Ying Junhyung led to the cancellation of the concert.
Furthermore, the rumors also claim HyunA’s marriage schedule was conflicting with her wedding ceremony. However, the organizers did not reveal the reason for canceling the concert. Thus, it remains a part of the scrutiny and speculations as well.
Following her breakup, singer HyunA made it public that she is in a relationship with Yong Junhyung through an announcement made in January earlier this year. Both, HyunA and Yong posted the same picture on their respective Instagram accounts and requested their fans to kindly loop upon their relationship.
Six months later, the singer announced her wedding to Yong at a private outdoor wedding ceremony on October 11, 2024, in Seoul at Samcheonggak. Her agency At Area also affirmed the news of their wedding.
