Singer Na Hoon-ah (77) has confirmed her retirement 58 years following her debut. It was a solo performance held at Songdo Convensia in Yeonsu-gu, Incheon on the followingnoon of the 27th. On that day, starting at 3 p.m., a total of 22 songs were played for approximately 2 hours and 25 minutes, and the word “retirement” was mentioned several times. He said this to the audience, who immediately responded “Yes!” » to the question “Are you sad?” “That’s why I stopped. “If I had said I might go, how sad it would have been if you hadn’t been disappointed to see me turn away.” In the public, “Who will appease the people now? » “The millet gull must continue to fly. With signs such as “Retirement as a referendum” and “No, no!” A sigh broke out. Some spectators shed tears.
The last song that concluded the performance was “The Man”. At the end of this song, Na Hoon-ah suddenly stopped singing, singing “Living like Hoon-a (the original lyrics are a man)/Like Hoon-a” and said, “Everyone, I can’t not sing because I’m putting the microphone down. “Please sing for me (continuing the last lyrics ‘I’m leaving’),” he said as he bid his final farewell to the audience. Then a microphone was attached to the drone and it flew away. Even following Na Hoon-ah turned his back and disappeared completely below the stage in the elevator, the audience applauded and mightn’t easily leave their seats.
◇Retirement From “current affairs” to the “corner”… “I will never sit in front of a piano once more.”
Today’s performance was the first day of the national tour announced by Na Hoon-ah in February with the subtitle “Thank you (last concert)” and a letter hinting at his retirement. In the letter, there were phrases such as “I will put down the microphone” and “I will follow instructions to leave with applause”, but the word “retirement” was not directly used. For this reason, some continued to speculate that “he might just stop playing and continue composing.”

However, as soon as the day’s performance began, Na Hoon-ah said, “First of all, this is the last performance in Incheon,” and called it quits that she was retiring. The reason I didn’t write “retirement” directly in the letter before the performance was because I didn’t like it. Because I feel like I’m being pushed (down). I can still do more. “That’s why I’m putting the mic down.” “Some fortune tellers said on YouTube that I would die next year and that I looked sick. I had 25 blood tests done in February of this year. “(I am so healthy) that the doctor was surprised,” he said, making people laugh as he revealed a Japanese health check believed to have been tested in Japan.
At the end of the performance, he said, “You might be wondering if I’m snooping around the entertainment industry by writing a song for someone, but since I (initially) don’t even know young people well singers, I don’t care. lyrics or songs to anyone. “ “I won’t look at you,” he said. Every time Na Hoon-ah holds a show commemorating her first anniversary, she takes 1966 as the starting point. Until now, he has written and sung more of 1,200 songs, including “Love”, “Hometown Station” and “Weeds”, and actively released new songs until last year. However, on that day, he declared that he would not return once more. never as a singer or composer.
Immediately following singing the new song “Gijang Seagull” released last year, Na Hoon-ah expressed his feelings regarding retirement more honestly. “The only job I was born into was being a singer,” he said. “Everyone, do you know how hard this must have been for me? Even if there’s something delicious on the street, I say, “Oh, let’s wait.” “Even though no one talked regarding eating, I lived like that. » » he then declared. “I won’t sit at the piano anymore. Other, I won’t touch it. I will read books, but I will not write anything. Forty-eight newspapers remain to this day. I won’t even write a diary anymore. Thank you all. really!” The applause fell on his face which seemed to be holding back tears.
The performance of the song “Gong”, in which Na Hoon-ah is famous for revealing his inner thoughts like a comic story on the chorus of the song “Tiri~Tiri Tiri Tiri~” during each performance, was also a bit more serious that day. “Before I stop singing, I have to tell you this story,” he said, adding: “I don’t think of the North as a country. “It’s a strange group, not a country,” he shouted. “The pig named Kim Jong-un in the North is starving or getting fat. It’s not a country. (Kim Jong-un) launched harsh criticism, saying: “If you tell yourself everything and say no, that’s the end.” » “Today, even wars require money. “Iran is said to spend 1 trillion won a day blocking its missiles, blocking 99 percent of them,” he said. “We must become so strong that even if we want to hit them (the North), we cannot hit them. .” “With strength there can be peace,” he said, raising his voice. The audience said, “It’s true! ” ” It’s true ! ” continued.
