Singer Hwasa has shared her thoughts on experiencing a “good goodbye,” potentially hinting at her rumored breakup with a 12-year older businessman. She appeared on the October 22 episode of SBS PowerFM’s Cultwo Show alongside comedienne Hong Yoon-hwa.

Hwasa recently released her new song “Good Goodbye,” a ballad combining rhythmic melodies with her emotionally rich vocals. She participated in both writing and composing the track, which looks back at a past love while wishing the other person true happiness. The sincere lyrics have resonated with many listeners.

Describing the song, Hwasa explained, “I’ve been calling it a ‘Hwasa-style ballad.’” She continued, “The title means ‘a good goodbye,’ but when I first wrote it, people around me questioned, ‘Can there really be such a thing?’ or ‘I’ve never experienced a good goodbye.’” She added, “After releasing the song, people started telling me, ‘Even though I’ve never had one, I feel like I understand what it means now.’ That made me feel proud.”

When host Kim Tae-gyun asked whether she had ever had a good goodbye, he commented, “It’s hard to believe that can exist between lovers.” Hwasa responded confidently, “I believe it’s possible.” Kim added, “I agree. You can love someone but still be stressed in the relationship. If the connection isn’t right, parting ways might be better.”

In 2023, Hwasa was rumored to be in a relationship with a businessman 12 years her senior, with whom she had reportedly been dating for five years. Her agency declined to confirm the relationship at the time, citing respect for her private life.

Earlier this year, Hwasa appeared on the YouTube channel Naraesik with model Han Hye-jin, where she remarked, *”Aren’t the three of us single now?”*—a comment many interpreted as a subtle confirmation of a breakup.

With her new song and thoughtful reflections, Hwasa seems to be navigating love and closure on her own terms.
