Fans flooded HyunA’s comment section with messages of support for the K-pop star.
“The problem is not stamina or professionalism,” one fan wrote. “K-pop company must absolutely understand they need to treat idols correctly in terms of health and work charge. Even considering their view of it, idols look prettier when they’re healthy and happy than when they’re overworked and trying unnecessary and unhealthy weight losses. How can’t they understand that ? Big support to you.”
Another wrote, “Whoever told you to apologize has no soul. It’s probably the same person that put your health in this position. You can either listen to your body and take breaks when you need to or your body will take a break and likely during an inconvenient time. You’re too young to be dealing with this. Mental and physical health go hand in hand. Eat something today, hydrate and rest.”
