HyunA then recounted her one memorable date with Yong Jun-hyung, “I really wanted to explore The Hyundai Seoul (a popular department store in Seoul). And beware, folks, it's packed in there! I went there with my boyfriend, and people They were surprised, 'Oh…', as they saw us and quickly retreated like ocean waves.”
“On that day, no one took a photo of us. I felt really grateful. Everyone took a step back when they noticed us to leave us alone. We soon left because it didn't feel like a good idea for us to be there. .”, HyunA added.

“I feel energized when I look at this photo. It feels wonderful to be in a relationship.”, HyunA remarked with a happy face.
Then, Cho Hyun-ah said, “To be honest, I was concerned about you. I was worried if you'd care about all that.”, indirectly mentioning the negative responses HyunA received for dating Yong Jun-hyung.
“I'm just grateful to have met someone who gives me the courage I need in my professional endeavors.”, HyunA replied, “If you care too much about what others think of you and try to keep up with it, you might forget. “How valuable your happiness is. So I try to focus on myself and the present.”
