Singer Heo Yong-yoon of the group 4Minute mentioned that he had lost his brother while preparing to go to Bali.
On the 28th, the 'Admission Sohyun' channel posted a video titled, "Everything I wanted to ask you. Today, I said it all | A video stating 'Gayun unnie's entrance'."
When asked why she fell in love with Bali, Yong Su-yoon stated, "I have struggled hard for my dream since I was young. Looking back, I have never lost hope, but in Bali, I experienced a sense of comfort and freedom for the first time," he said.
When asked if he would stay in Bali permanently, he said, "I don't want to make a decision. I want to live wherever there is an ocean. I'm concerned about my parents in Korea. I don't know how long it will be, but I also want to visit other islands. I think it's good to live freely now for my mental and physical well-being. I want to focus on myself." He added, "The compulsion to diet was gone, so I became physically and mentally healthy. I feel comfortable meeting anyone." He mentioned that he has found peace in Bali.
Kwon So-hyun mentioned, "I wasn't feeling well before my sister went to Bali. I've never seen it that swollen before," said Heo Yong-yoon. "So I felt a sense of dislike and bulimia. My body collapsed, and I also had hypothyroidism. These days, doctors are surprised by the improvement in my thyroid levels. He said that the solution is not to get stressed."
The idea that he is engaging in Balisal due to having a significant amount of savings is "There's no better place to spend money than I expected because I am not greedy for clothes and I am not trying to decorate them. I usually only spend on food or coffee."
On the other hand, regarding the aspect that remains unchanged even after moving to Bali, "expression of emotion" was mentioned. Heo Yong-yoon said, "I am someone who has certain emotions. I hold them in even if I want to cry, but they are still there. Did you get used to controlling your emotions when you were young? You couldn't laugh wildly either. I think I cared about others. I wondered how I would look if I cried." Then she added, "I have only cried once, when my brother passed away. At that time, I cried without worrying about others. I wondered if I could go to Bali alone or if I wanted to live without my brother's support. I was also surprised by that. Without this incident, it wouldn't have been easy to change." Park Yong-yoon experienced the loss of her brother in 2020. According to the agency at the time, Heo Yong-yoon's brother died at a young age due to the worsening of his long-term chronic illness.
Meanwhile, Park debuted with 4Minute in 2009 and pursued an acting career after the group disbanded in 2016. He recently shared his experiences living in Bali, and today (28th) published an essay titled 'I became the most familiar in the most unfamiliar sea'.
