On the April 14th broadcast of MBC FM4U’s Kim Shin-young’s Noon Song of Hope, Hwasa opened up about a terrifying incident involving a steam humidifier that led to an emergency room visit and a serious diagnosis.

The Accident: A Split-Second Disaster

The story surfaced when a listener recalled Hwasa appearing injured during her solo concert back in January. Hwasa candidly explained the situation:

• The Situation: Hwasa was moving a steam humidifier while unclothed. These devices work by boiling water to over 100°C to release hot steam.
• The Spill: She accidentally spilled the boiling water. “Fortunately, it didn’t hit my body,” Hwasa shared. “But the water hit the floor, and I stepped right into it.”
• The Diagnosis: She was rushed to the emergency room, where she was diagnosed with second-degree burns after blisters covered her entire sole.

Professionalism Over Pain: The Concert Must Go On

The timing of the accident coincided with her highly anticipated solo concert. Most performers would have postponed, but Hwasa chose to push through.

• The Performance: She took the stage with her foot heavily bandaged and swapped her signature high-heeled boots for sneakers.
• Adrenaline Surge: “I didn’t even realize it was painful while I was on stage,” she admitted, highlighting her “born-to-be-performer” mindset.
• Recovery Update: Hwasa reassured worried fans that she is now fully recovered. While there was some dark scarring initially, she confirmed her skin has now returned to normal.
