On the August 14 installment of JTBC's 'Ssul Jeon,' the topic of HyunA and her current song "Red" came up, bringing up discussion about her singing abilities.  

MC Park Ji Yoon claimed that the fact HyunA's sexy performance always became a controversy proved that she was a hot icon.  They then talked about why it's usually just HyunA that's chosen from the many singers who did the sexy concept and turned into a problem.

Kang Yong Suk said, "I hear that the viewers send civil complaints to the Korean Communications Commission's review room."  Heo Ji Woong said the sexy concept itself could cause controversies, but added, "I wish HyunA would practice singing more to put these controversies to rest."

He pointed out that compared to other sexy singers, HyunA's singing ability was weak. The other MCs said that she was indeed weak when it came to singing, but her tone itself was charming.  Kim Gu Ra stated, "But I don't think HyunA's song itself demands good vocal talents."

Heo Ji Wong reiterated that he wished she would be a bit better at singing and would advance one stage through practice so that she could ultimately be a singer with both a cool performance and great singing abilities.  

Looking through the comments left about HyunA, he continued, "There was a lot of comments left by women in their mid-twenties that were severe and excessive to the point they were hard to listen to.  Even I would get scarred, so think about how scarred the person directly involved would be."
