Hwasa is the stage name of Ahn Hye Jin, a 26-year-old global megastar. MAMAMOO’s youngest member, a fashionista, a reigning soloist, and a no-nonsense occupier in an industry that adheres to its own set of norms, she is well-known among K-pop fans. Hwasa, on the other hand, never yields to them, instead charging on with greater assurance each time, unwavering and generous.
Her journey, despite being difficult and marked by unmistakable traces of naysayer rejection, has resulted in a regimen of carefully crafted music that she takes satisfaction in crafting herself. Her raps drop like a hot coal on water, smoldering with the same zeal as the artist herself. Hwasa is your resident cherry bubble trapped in the spirit of an all-rounder, her songs interwoven with her low, enrapturing voice and her stroll filled with ambition.
Hwasa has established herself as a variety star on the rise by pursuing solo projects in addition to her work with the popular quartet. Fans have had a glimpse into her after-glam existence thanks to series like ‘Hyena on the Keyboard’ and ‘I Live Alone,’ while project group ‘Refund Sisters’ shows off her humorous side.
Hwasa’s solo debut was marked by the worldwide success of ‘Twit,’ her debut EP ‘Maria,’ and her single ‘Guily Pleasure,’ which restored faith in her potential. Hwasa has always been a force to be reckoned with, citing American rapper Beyoncé as an inspiration and someone who has helped her overcome adversity.
Hwasa continues to be an inspiration with her undeniable charm and growing talent.
