“I haven’t been there, I’m looking forward to going. I haven’t stayed there before, so I’m looking forward to staying there. “When my legs are healthy, I can do anything I want.”
‘Vacuan’ Na Hoon-ah (77) once again performed as a retired officer on stage, 58 years after her first appearance. He was at the national tour ‘Thank You – Final Concert’ held at Songdo Convensia in Yeonsu-gu, Incheon on the 27th. He said, “(After I retire), I won’t sit in front of the piano or touch the guitar,” and “I won’t even look at the entertainment business with a little sideways glance.” Fans said, “No!” Here and there. Na Hoon-ah didn’t seem to be joking even though she passionately sang 22 songs for 2 hours and 40 minutes alone without any invited singers.

Before that, Na Hoon-a revealed the national tour schedule in February along with a letter saying, ‘I’m putting down the microphone.’ However, since there was no direct mention of retirement, there was speculation that it was a ‘retirement proposal’. Na Hoon-ah said on this day, “I don’t like the word ‘retirement’ because it feels like I’ve been pushed out, so I haven’t used it and I can still do it, but it means putting down the microphone.”
Na Hoon-ah sang six songs, including ‘Hometown Station’ and ’18 Year Old Soon-i’, and changed her outfit each time. When she sang ’18 Year Old Sooni’, she wore an unconventional outfit with a pink mesh top and pleated skirt. The audience burst into laughter during the ‘performance’, in which the performer took off his clothes on stage with a moving screen in between. He said, “Today, I will change my clothes 15 times so that you will not lose your senses. “I will say without hesitation and keep all lines clear and distinct,” he said. They would alternately sing famous songs and the latest songs such as ‘Change’, ‘Hongsi’, ‘Mushiro’, and ‘Tess Hyung’.
He said the 1997 consolation performance on Sorok Island where he kissed and sang to a leprosy patient was “the most memorable and heartwarming performance.” He said the Super Concert held in Osaka, Japan in 1996, where he was threatened by shouting, ‘Dokdo is our land,’ which was an “achievement where we put our arms on the line.” They also suggested that instead of ‘encore’, we should use the Korean word ‘again!’ shout and that instead of the Japanese expression ‘trot’, we should say ‘traditional song’.
As if Na Hoon-ah was aware of the rumors about his health, he said, “I did 25 blood tests in February. “(I was so healthy) the doctor was surprised,” he said, showing a health check sheet written in Japanese.
●’I’m going to live like a hoon-a’
The fans’ disappointment was profound. In the audience, placards were seen: ‘The seagull must fly’, ‘Retirement is a referendum’, and ‘Retirement sucks’. Na Hoon-a confessed her feelings while singing the song ‘Gong’, which tells a story every time the name ‘Tiri’ appears. He did not forget to satirize the social situation by saying, “Politics these days is terrible, so let’s shout ‘Tiri’ to the National Assembly building,” and “Let’s shout ‘Tiri’ to North Korea, a strange group that decides whether a person dies or not.”
Before he sang the song ‘The Man’ which decorated the final, he thanked his fans and he looked very happy. “Everyone, thank you. “Really!” he said, and began to sing ‘The Man’ with an expression that seemed to be holding back tears. He changed the word ‘man’ at the end of the song to ‘Hoon-a’ and sang, “Live like Hoon-a/Be like Hoon-a,” then asked the audience to to sing the next line, “I’ tha mi go.” Then he put a microphone to the drone. He bent down, bowed to the audience, and left.
Na Hoon-a continues her national tour until July. Additional shows are scheduled for the second half of this year. The schedule for the ‘ultimate performance’ has not yet been confirmed.
