Moon Hyun-ah (also known as Hyuna), who debuted as a member of the girl group Nine Muses (often stylized as 9Muses) in 2010, gained a lot of love for her excellent singing ability and stunning looks, especially as the group’s lead vocalist.
Standing at 172 cm with a slim figure and a sophisticated image, she had been active as a model even before her debut. She took her first step into the entertainment industry by winning a special award at the 2007 SBS Supermodel Contest.
In 2017, she made headlines by announcing her marriage to the CEO of her agency, who is 8 years older than her.
Moon Hyun-ah’s husband, the 8-years-older CEO of her agency, became her partner in what seemed like a storybook romance. She revealed, “I’ve known my husband since before I started my activities with Nine Muses, we were neighbors living next door.”
In particular, because the couple’s landlord had split a house into two and rented them separately, the two of them lived with just a thin wall separating their rooms, making it natural to hear each other’s daily sounds.
She recalled, “My husband didn’t make a bad first impression, so I would sometimes sit and lean against the wall for no reason,” remembering the innocent memories. Her husband also proudly told his friends, “There’s a pretty girl living next door,” already recognizing the special connection they had.
As time passed, they became a couple and tied the knot in 2017, embarking on a life together. Moon Hyun-ah now has a son and a daughter, creating a happy family.
Even after marriage, she continued to pursue music and hobbies. Recently, she challenged herself with horseback riding, setting new goals for herself. However, while preparing for the practical exam to become a riding instructor, she suffered a serious injury from a fall, fracturing her wrist.
Moon Hyun-ah shared an update on her SNS, saying, “I’m in the 5th week after wrist surgery,” and updated fans on her condition from her hospital bed. She expressed, “I’m learning things I wouldn’t have known if I hadn’t fallen,” and added, “Now, I’m living my life as if I’m driving safely.”
Despite the accident, she vowed not to give up on her dream of becoming a riding instructor, leaving a deep impression on her fans.
Netizens responded passionately, saying, “Marrying the neighbor is really like a drama,” “Her attitude of not giving up on her dream despite the accident is so admirable,” and “She’s amazing, balancing marriage, work, and motherhood as a working mom.”
