In a recent video released on the YouTube channel 'Weracle', singer Hyolyn shared personal anecdotes, including the reason behind her cross tattoo. Recalling her time as a trainee at JYP Entertainment, she recounted a pivotal moment that led her to reflect on fate and love.

Hyorin also delved into her childhood dream of becoming a singer, expressing disbelief at its realization and the challenges she faced as a latecomer to the industry. Regarding her cross tattoo, situated on her abdomen, she disclosed a deeply personal story. Born weighing 4.2kg with excess abdominal fluid, she underwent numerous surgeries as a newborn due to a blockage in her gallbladder ducts and an obstruction in her intestines, leaving her with visible scars.

Struggling with insecurities about her stomach's appearance, Hyorin eventually opted for a cover-up tattoo, transforming her scars into a source of confidence. Despite its visibility, the tattoo now serves as a symbol of resilience and self-assurance, marking her journey of overcoming childhood struggles with pride.
