BoA and Jun Hyun-moo’s Livestream Sparks Controversy
On April 5, 2025, a livestream hosted by South Korean personality Jun Hyun-moo, featuring popular singer BoA, captured the attention of fans and critics alike. The session appeared to take a boozy turn, with both participants allegedly under the influence, leading to intriguing discussions in the chat about Jun’s rumored relationship with comedienne Park Na-rae.
When the dating rumors surfaced, BoA responded candidly, stating:
“I don’t think they’re dating,” adding, “He’s too good for her.”
BoA’s comments quickly circulated online, causing many to scrutinize the nature of their interactions during the stream. The perceived intimacy of their exchange, which included physical proximity, garnered criticism from viewers. At one point, BoA expressed her affection directly:
“I like you.”
Jun Hyun-moo replied with a compliment:
“You looked so pretty.”
Their casual demeanor during the broadcast raised eyebrows, leading to a wave of public backlash. In light of the criticism, BoA issued a public apology on April 7, 2025, via Weverse, addressing her conduct and the situation surrounding Jun.
“First of all, I apologized to Na-rae Park for mentioning and making rude remarks in the absence of the person concerned, and thank you for your understanding,”wrote the “Step Back”artist.
She emphasized her commitment to improving her public behavior:
“Taking this as an opportunity, I will look back on myself once again, and from now on, I will try to show you my mature self without forgetting the weight that every word and action can give me.”
As of now, neither Park Na-rae nor Jun Hyun-moo has publicly addressed the incident, leaving fans speculating about their thoughts on the unfolding situation.
Park Na-rae Cancels Appearance Following the Incident
On April 8, 2025, Park Na-rae’s abrupt absence from MBC’s Trot Radio, hosted by Son Tae Jin, raised eyebrows, especially following the livestream controversy. Her agency disclosed that she could not participate due to medical issues. Notably, the announcement was made just an hour prior to the scheduled airing, leaving little room for context.
The unfortunate timing of her cancellation has led many to speculate whether it was connected to the preceding events. Although her agency claimed her absence was unrelated to the livestream drama, they emphasized that she was simply “feeling unwell.”
As fans continued to analyze the implications of BoA’s remarks, a long-standing fan account announced its decision to leave the platform X (formerly known as Twitter). This particular fansite had maintained a presence for 25 years but chose to close its doors, prompting speculation that this move was a reaction to the recent controversy, though no explicit connection was made by the account owner.
As the situation continues to develop, many in the fan community remain vigilant, evaluating the ongoing narrative surrounding these popular figures in South Korea’s entertainment landscape.
