HANI (real name Ahn Hee Yeon), former member of the girl group EXID turned actress, is heading to India for the third time.
On July 29, HANI shared a photo of a document on her social media story, captioned: “Third time in India.” The document referred to a “meditation journey in Ladakh, India,” suggesting this trip is the final stage of her recent yoga instructor training course.
The day before, she had already posted photos from her certificate ceremony, sharing her thoughts on completing the program. She wrote:
“Yoga has changed my body, but the biggest change is in my mind. Bit by bit, I’m learning to be kind to myself.”
She also expressed heartfelt gratitude toward her fellow trainees and instructors.
Back in May, HANI announced her engagement to Yang Jae Woong, a psychiatrist and television personality. However, the wedding was postponed indefinitely following a controversy involving a medical error at the clinic he manages.
Recently, after nearly a year away from the spotlight, HANI appeared on MBN’s program “오은영 스테이”, where she openly shared the emotional struggles she had been going through.
On the show, she revealed:
“I’ve always cared too much about what others think. But now, I want to stop. Recently, I’ve realized that life doesn’t always go the way you want.”
She continued:
“Being part of this program feels like making a declaration. I came here to say: ‘I’m going to try to have the courage to be disliked.’”
Through this, she hinted at her desire to move past the judgment and criticism surrounding the postponement of her wedding.
