The content "Jo Hyun-ah’s Thursday Night" featuring singer HyunA is facing a barrage of negative comments
On April 18th, HyunA appeared on the YouTube channel “Jo Hyun-ah’s Thursday Night” to share her recent status.
Jo Hyun-ah asked HyunA, who is publicly dating Yong Jun-hyung, “When do you have a date? Don’t you have a place to go? Don’t people look at you so much?” HyunA replied, “I don’t care.”
HyunA said, “I really wanted to go to ‘The Hyundai’. There’s scone which I like. There are new designers’ brands too. I want to see them. But guys, be careful. There are too many people. I went there with my boyfriend, and people were like… People scattered.”
She continued, “They saw me… And what I’m thankful is that they didn’t take pictures of me and they just went away like this. I felt so thankful. It was me who thought ‘I don’t think we should be here’ and came out.“
Jo Hyun-ah asked, “Do you roam around often? Did you watch cherry blossom in a date?” HyunA smiling replied, “I’m going to meet my boyfriend after this filming.” Also, HyunA revealed a couple photo as her phone wallpaper and expressed satisfaction, “I gain energy while watching this. It’s really good.”
Shortly after the video was released, negative comments poured into the YouTube channel.
Netizens left comments such as “I can’t believe HyunA is dating Jung Joon-young’s friend Yong Jun-hyung“, “I don’t know why an interview was done with this content“, “I hope they quietly date“, “MC Jo Hyun-ah, who invited a guest dating a sex offender and glorified it“, “Isn’t there anyone else to invite? This is not right“, “I’m unsubscribing. Just by inviting that guest, it feels like supporting their relationship“, “I don’t morally understand this“…
Earlier in January, HyunA surprised fans by announcing her relationship with Yong Jun-hyung. Yong Jun-hyung also informed fans of this fact, saying, “You might have been surprised by the sudden news. We are hanging out happily while receiving positive energy from each other, so please look at us warmly.”
Additionally, HyunA actively supported Yong Jun-hyung’s new EP “Beautiful Dystopia” on her Instagram.
However, some are criticizing HyunA for dating Yong Jun-hyung. Yong Jun-hyung was implicated in the Jung Joon-young scandal. Although he strongly denied involvement, it was revealed that he had watched illegally filmed videos shared by Jung Joon-young in 2015, leading to his acknowledgment and subsequent departure from the group Highlight in 2019.
