The rapper’s recent social media cleanse has fans speculating about his relationship with his former girlfriend

Dawn has removed all posts related to his ex-girlfriend, singer HyunA, from his Instagram. On July 14, he posted a new photo on his Instagram story and significantly cleaned up his account feed, leaving only 15 new photos of his activities.

Previously, even after HyunA announced her engagement to singer Yong Jun Hyung on July 8, Dawn had kept photos of himself with her, including some intimate moments, on his feed. This sparked debates among fans and netizens about whether he deleted the photos with HyunA as a courtesy to her and her fiancé, Yong Jun Hyung.

HyunA and Yong Jun Hyung started dating in January of this year and have confirmed to tie the knot this October. 

DAWN and HyunA dating history and timeline

After facing intense backlash due to their relationship, Cube Entertainment announced on September 13, 2018, that they would terminate both artists’ contracts, stating they could not “maintain trust” with the couple. However, the pair signed a contract with PSY’s new music company, P Nation, the following year. During their time at P Nation, they released solo tracks like Hyuna’s “I’m Not Cool” and Dawn’s “Money.” The duo also created a musical act called HyunA and DAWN, releasing a song and music video for “Ping Pong” together. In August 2022, the couple announced their departure from P Nation after their contracts expired.

Since going public with their relationship, Dawn and HyunA frequently posted photos of one another on social media. They got engaged on February 3, 2022, announcing it on Instagram.

However, on November 30, 2022, HyunA announced their breakup on Instagram. “We broke up,” HyunA wrote in her post. We decided to remain good friends and colleagues from now on. Thank you always for your support and for looking over us fondly.”
