[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Park Hee-eun] Hwasa, a member of the group MAMAMOO, shared her daily life after releasing her solo new song "Maria."


On the 17th, MBC's "I Live Alone" aired Hwasa's daily life on the day she released her solo new song "Maria."


In the broadcast, Hwasa revealed the reason for her back injury, saying, "While practicing ahead of my comeback, I injured my back a week ago. I collapsed immediately and was taken to the hospital by ambulance."


She continued, "The hospital said the disc was already deteriorating. On the first day, I couldn't even walk. But from the second day, I was able to walk," and added, "It was difficult when I passed gas or coughed," which made the studio laugh.


She said, "I was actually in pain during the comeback stage. But I couldn't show it. I did the choreography mostly with arm strength. I got injured during the bridge part, and that part became more frightening as it approached."


On that day, Hwasa showed continuous nervousness as the time for the song release approached. Right after the release, she shared her trembling feelings, saying, "Honestly, I must have listened to the song 'Maria' at least 10,000 times. But when I heard the song uploaded on the music site, it felt like I was listening to a completely new song."


Especially after the new song release, Hwasa received a phone call from her father and heard the news that her mother had undergone a CT scan due to health issues. Upon hearing the news, Hwasa burst into tears immediately.


Eventually, Hwasa felt relieved by her father's words, "It's not serious," and jokingly said, "Dad will tell mom that I made him cry," trying to comfort herself.


Regarding this, Hwasa sincerely expressed, "While preparing the 'Maria' album, I was neglectful to many people. I selfishly focused only on the album. I do this work to be happy, but I missed too many things."



Afterward, Hwasa could not hide her joy over the high rankings of "Maria," which entered the charts at 2nd, 4th, and 6th place right after the release.
