Singer and actress Hanni (Ahn Hee-yeon) candidly confessed her recent psychological distress and fear of public scrutiny.
On the 14th broadcast of MBN 'Oh Eun-young Stay,' Hanni, a former member of EXID, shared her story with the keyword 'sensitivity.'
Hanni said, 'I want to stop being overly sensitive, but I keep finding myself being sensitive out of habit.' She opened up, stating, 'Through various experiences in life, I often felt that the things happening to me are not things I can choose.'
Hanni paused her activities after the patient death incident that occurred in May last year at the hospital operated by her partner, psychiatrist Yang Jae-woong. Following that incident, the couple, who had promised to marry, indefinitely postponed their wedding, and Hanni also withdrew from the programs she was set to appear on. Despite not being the involved party, the unrestrained malicious comments and scrutiny directed at her continued.
Hanni noted, 'In the past, my dream was to become famous, but recently I've even been afraid to take public transportation.' She expressed, 'What if people think, "I guess she failed"? What if they laugh at me? It was terrifying to confront those thoughts.' She continued, 'Even if I tried to cover my face, just making eye contact with others was difficult. I tried to act casually on purpose as well.'
In response to her confession, Dr. Oh Eun-young said, 'Humans cannot be perfect. If there is truly something you did wrong, you should sincerely apologize and give it time.' She advised, 'If not, you need time to think about what is truly important to you.'
