Ahn Hye-jin (Korean: 안혜진; born July 23, 1995), known professionally by her stage name Hwasa (Korean: 화사; stylized as Hwa Sa), is a South Korean singer, songwriter, and television personality. She rose to prominence as a member of the girl group Mamamoo in 2014. In February 2019, she made her solo debut with the song "Twit" which topped the Circle Digital Chart and won song of the year at the Gaon Chart Music Awards.

In 2020, Hwasa debuted as part of the Refund Sisters with the single "Don't Touch Me," which reached number one in South Korea. In 2021, she released her EP, María, which charted at number five in her home country, while its lead single "María" peaked at number two on the Gaon Charts, earning her a Golden Disc and Mnet Asian Music Award. In 2023, Hwasa left RBW and signed with P Nation, releasing her second digital single, "I Love My Body," which reached the top-ten of the Circle Digital Chart and Billboard World Digital Song Sales chart in the United States.

Name

The stage name "Hwa Sa" (화사) is derived from the adjective "화사하다" (hwasahada), which means "to shine brightly". In Hanja, her birth name "혜진" (Hye-jin) is written as "惠眞" meaning "Grace in Truth".

Early life

Ahn Hye-jin was born on July 23, 1995, in Jeonju, Jeollabuk-do, South Korea, where she lived with her parents and two elder sisters. She graduated from Wonkwang Information Arts High School. Hwasa often cites Beyoncé as her music inspiration, stating that after hearing someone say that she was unique and good at singing but was fat and not pretty, she went home and watched videos of Beyoncé performing all night to comfort herself.

Even before her K-pop debut, a number of South Korean artists – including artist Solbi and the band Standing Egg – recognized her talent and featured her on their tracks when she was 18.

In February 2019, Hwasa made her debut as a solo artist with the digital single, "Twit," which she participated in writing and composing. The song was a commercial success, peaking atop the Gaon Digital Chart and scored a "Triple Crown," topping the Gaon Digital, Gaon Download and Gaon Streaming charts. "Twit" also peaked at number three on Billboard World Digital Song Sales chart for the week of March 2, 2019.

Hwasa joined the cast of MBC reality-variety show How Do You Play? On October 10, she debuted with Refund Sisters, the project supergroup created through Hangout with Yoo. The group released their debut single, "Don't Touch Me." "Don't Touch Me" peaked atop the Gaon Digital Chart for two consecutive weeks.

The article mentioned that "Hwasa is known to many as a fearless person but her single 'María' deconstructs that image, casting an image of a young woman who is at once vulnerable and confident, playful and seductive — idol and human." In Time magazine's article documenting K-pop songs and albums that defined the year, the publication wrote "of the solo releases year, Hwasa's "María" leaves the most searing impression".

Controversy

In May 2023, the Student and Parent Human Rights Protection Coalition of Sungkyunkwan University filed a police report against Hwasa for public indecency due to racy and sexually suggestive dance moves, including licking her fingers and touching her crotch, performed at the public festival. Shin Min-hyang, representative of the Coalition, filed the police report stating "Hwasa's controversial stage for obscenity was seen not only by students, but also by parents and the general public, so an unspecified number of people felt uncomfortable." Laws against entertainment that "creates public sexual arousal" or "creates an atmosphere of sexual disgust" have been around since the military dictatorship era, however the laws have not been used recently to target public performances.

On September 10, 2023, Hwasa's company confirmed that she had been called in and interrogated by the police in early September, also confirming the charges have moved into a criminal investigation instead of a civil code violation. Hwasa's company confirmed that she and the company are complying with all police and court orders.

On October 4, 2023, the police announced an acquittal for the singer. The police stated that "after investigating the content of the performance, and comprehensively reviewing the statements of those involved, it was determined that it would be difficult to bring up criminal charges ."
