130716 SISTAR's Hyorin Criticized for Having Cold Attitude During Fan Signing

SISTAR‘s Hyorin is currently on the spot for having a cold attitude.

On July 15, fan cams and photos spread throughout the Web, containing footage of SISTAR’s fan signing event that was held on July 13.

One fan cam was edited to be around one minute and 13 seconds long, which showed Hyorin having a cold attitude and face during the fan signing event.

Another particular fan cam showed Hyorin saying, “So I was in a ‘mental breakdown’ state before because I was sleeping in the van and just came out. It wasn’t that I was in a bad mood so please don’t worry.”

As soon as Hyorin said that, a fan replied, “You were so scary, my hands were trembling.”

Then Hyorin replied, “How can a person smile for 24 hours, 365 days a year? Right? So it wasn’t that I was in a bad mood, I just didn’t have any expression on my face.”

Then the fans cheered for her to show support and Hyorin’s face got a bit brighter.

SISTAR’s inside sources spoke with Newsen on July 16 and said, “The overall atmosphere of the event was very good. The clip only showed one part of the event, causing a misunderstanding.”

They continued, “Hyorin is the type of person who is real with her fans and treats them with honesty. The event was like a fan meeting so the fans were not offended either. We hope there are no misunderstandings.”

On July 16, Hyorin tweeted through SISTAR’s official Twitter, “Hello, this is Hyorin. I am so sorry for unintentionally disappointing many of you through the fan signing event incident.”

She continued, “I actually had a great time at that event, being with my fans. However, I tend to be really honest with my fans so I think my words and actions can definitely be interpreted in the wrong way.”

Hyorin added, “I will try not to disappoint you from now on,” and “I’m sorry. I will become a Hyorin who works even harder.”

130716 SISTAR’s Hyorin Apologizes On Twitter For Not Looking Like She Was Having More Fun At A Recent Fan Event

Singer Hyorin of chart-topping K-pop girl group SISTAR was forced to apologize on Twitter this week.

Being a pop idol isn’t always fun.

Lead singer Hyorin of chart-topping K-pop girl group SISTAR was forced to apologize on Twitter this week, after footage of her not appearing to be enjoying herself at a recent autograph signing for fans of the group, caused an online backlash, according to the website allkpop.

“Hello, this is Hyorin. I’m so sorry because I think I unintentionally disappointed you guys at the fan signing,” the singer wrote.

“The event where I was actually with the fans was a fun time for me. However, I think my candid actions with the fans was enough to cause a misunderstanding. From now on, I will not disappoint you guys. I’m sorry. I will be Hyorin who tries her best.”

A representative from the group’s record label Starship Entertainment claims the photograph doesn’t tell the whole story.

“The overall mood of the fan signing was good,” the rep explained.

“We think there was a misunderstanding from the short clip. Hyorin normally greets her fans candidly. The fans weren’t offended since it was a fan-meeting situation. We hope there aren’t any misunderstandings.”

K-pop fan Teikitekahioho sees Hyorin’s behavior as part of a pattern.

“I feel sorry for her, but lately I found her less enthusiastic,” Teikitekahioho wrote in response to the allkpop article. “It’s been a while since I heard her laughing.”

But SISTAR fan lili3456 feels everyone should give the star a break.

“I actually feel sorry for her,” she wrote.

“Yes, maybe she was rude, but how many of us have had a bad day and took it out on others? She was probably tired as hell, felling bad and had to work for many hours more. I would be a mess too. She did something wrong and apologized. Good for her for not making excuses for her behavior but taking responsibility for that.”

Perhaps Hyorin missed a meal, although not reportedly a common occurrence for her band.

Earlier this month, over a late lunch at a Korean restaurant, the members of SISTAR opened up to the Mnet program “M! Countdown” about how they avoid starving themselves to stay thin.

“To show a healthy image, we just have to eat,” Dasom said.

“We can’t sing without food. We do get something called ‘camera massage,’ so we don’t gain as much weight as we used to.”

“We don’t gain weight, but we don’t lose either,” Soyoo quipped.
