HYUNA : A win for « I’m not cool »
On January 23rd, 2022, the « 31st Seoul Music Awards » were held. HYUNA, from the P.NATION agency, attended as a solo artist but also as a member of the duo HYUNA&DAWN.
The singer won the award for « best R&B/Hip-Hop song ». When she went to take her award she said :
I think I’ll spend the year wondering how I’m going to make you happy and excited. I think what I’m good for is the stage. Thank you to the staff who have been with us over the past year and to our beloved DAWN. I received help from many people while preparing « I’m not cool » so that I could enjoy it on stage.
Every time I go to the convenience store or go to the cosmetics store in front of my house, « I’m not cool » plays. I’m glad to be able to say thank you again here. I hope there will be many happy things for you this year too.
HEIZE, another artist from the P.NATION agency, was absent from the ceremony due to health reasons. HYUNA collected her award and gave a quick speech.
« This is my first time accepting an award for someone else, so I got a memo from HEIZE. I thought she would like to personally thank her fans. She said, “Thank you for enjoying HEIZE‘s music this year. I miss my fans and hope you all stay warm no matter the weather.”
HEIZE has been sick lately. She didn’t say it because she was worried about causing concern to her fans. I will take good care of her by her side. I hope you all stay healthy mentally and physically this year including all the artists who are here. »
HYUNA interpreted her title « I’m not cool » but also « Ping pong » with DAWN, two performances full of energy and glitter.
The young woman released her song « I’m not cool » and her mini-album of the same name just over a year ago. The track soared to the top of the iTunes World Albums Chart upon its release and earned two platinum badges after triple gold certification due to high sales on China’s biggest music platform QQ Music. This comeback won over her fans thanks to her charisma and her self-confidence on stage.
The duo HYUNA&DAWN debuted in September 2021 with the title « Ping pong » and the mini album « 1+1=1 ». They are the first couple in the K-pop industry to work as a duo, which has been very well received by the public.
