Lately, prominent female idols HyunA, Hani, and Jiyeon have been receiving attention in the media, but not for their creative achievements. Regrettably, the spotlight is on controversies surrounding their romantic partners.
Hani of EXID Involved in Scandal with Fiancé
Despite being engaged to Dr. Yang Jae Woong, who is currently being investigated in relation to the death of a patient, Hani has found herself at the center of attention. This has only intensified after Dr. Yang Jae Woong publicly apologized, leading to harsh backlash and criticism directed towards Hani on her personal social media platforms. Comments regarding her upcoming marriage to Dr. Yang are overwhelmingly negative.
Nate believes that the backlash against Hani is due in part to her announcement of her engagement to Yang Jae Woong on May 31, only four days after Patient A’s death. The public was angered by the couple’s decision to proceed with their wedding announcement despite the medical mistake, which was seen as insensitive and inconsiderate. Consequently, there has been a growing sense of frustration and anger towards Hani from the public.
HyunA’s Career Takes a Hit Following Engagement to Idol Involved in Burning Sun Scandal
In 2024, HyunA, a well-known “K-pop icon”, experienced a notable decline in her career after publicly announcing her relationship with long-time friend Yong Junhyung. Despite their close friendship, the couple faced backlash and criticism when they suddenly confirmed their engagement on July 8. This unexpected news shocked many fans, as Yong Junhyung had previously left his group due to his involvement in the Burning Sun scandal. As a result, HyunA has faced boycotts from her own fanbase and has seen a decline in her musical activities, including disappointing results for her most recent comeback and the cancellation of her U.S. and Canada tour dates.
HyunA’s live shows have additionally been met with apathy and lack of response from crowds, causing further harm to her image. The challenges in her career are a result of her own decisions rather than external circumstances.

As a result, Jiyeon has also faced negative attention, with netizens targeting her personal social media accounts after Hwang Jae Gyun closed his. Despite Jiyeon’s denial of divorce rumors, the ongoing scandal and backlash have forced her to take a hiatus.
Despite Jiyeon’s absence from T-ara’s recent activities, including a fan meeting in Shanghai, there has been speculation that she is intentionally keeping a low profile due to the sensitive situation. However, she recently resurfaced on social media to commemorate T-ara’s 15th debut anniversary.
