Soloist HyunA recently disclosed her plans for a North American tour, titled My Attitude Tour 2024, set to kick off this August.

The announcement follows the release of her latest album, Attitude, which debuted in May and will feature eight stops across the U.S. and Canada.

This tour marks her first since publicly acknowledging her relationship with former HIGHLIGHT member Yong Jun Hyung, who has found himself embroiled in the controversial "Burning Sun" scandal.

Following the recent release of the BBC documentary shedding light on the scandal, renewed criticism and condemnation have been directed toward Jun Hyung and others implicated, significantly impacting HyunA's own career.

HyunA's recent Instagram posts have been inundated with critical and harsh comments regarding her relationship, even if the posts are unrelated to her boyfriend.

With the tour announcement, the criticism persists and, if anything, intensifies, with many eyeing the soloist skeptically in light of recent events.

Here are some of the top comments on the post, reflecting the mixed reactions to the news.

BTS member Jimin made history at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS, becoming the first solo artist ever to win the prestigious Visa Fan’s Choice of the Year award.

On November 22, Jimin was honored with the Fan’s Choice of the Year award at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS JAPAN, held at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. This marks a huge milestone in his career, especially considering his ongoing military service.

Jimin made history as the first solo artist to win the Fan’s Choice of the Year award, a category that BTS had dominated for six years since its debut in 2018.

In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
