Hwasa's parents always supported her. When she was young, her dad would buy meat 6 days out of the week. He’d buy her anything she said she wanted to eat. Even when finances weren’t stable, he’d still buy any foods she wanted so she gained a lot of weight. They even knew that she would become a singer. Hwasa once stated: “When I was really young, my parents took me to their alumni reunions and once they went to a club. I was still a kid so they carried me on their back and went. However, my Dad left me alone for just a short moment, but when he came back he saw that there were people crowded around me. It turned out that I was singing in between people, using the buzzer button to call the waiter as a mic. My Dad carried me back home again afterwards and he said that I kept kicking my feet to the rhythm (laughs). He told me that this was when he knew that I would become a singer.” 2

Hwasa makes her own standard of beauty and rocks her own style regardless of what people think of her. She's bold, and doesn't listen to authority. In one instance, before debut, the CEO of RBW said “There are more ways to style long hair. We don’t know what your concept will be yet so tell the members not to cut their hair." The next day Hwasa came back with all her hair cut off, laughed and said “CEO how do I look?” 1

Hwasa is a perfectionist. She claimes that "I felt that it's really difficult doing your own thing without being shaken, calmly. I also became like that little by little. There some parts of me that are sensitive, and I still don't feel comfortable. I think I lash out at myself a lit, not being able to tolerate mistakes or faults." 3

Hwasa is also not as 'confident' as she appears on camera, in real life. When fellow bandmates Solar and Moonbyul were asked to describe her, they noted that "Hwasa has a very charismatic appearance and a cool image. However, in reality, She is shy and has a naive personality.
[She is] The youngest of us, and she has the cuteness of a younger sister. Hwasa has many aspects." 5

However, she is also insanely passionate to a fault. She states, “Whenever I wake up in the morning, I think, ‘There’s a chance that I may totally fail today.’ It’s my determination and resolution to not lose my initial passion. My popularity can’t last forever, so I’m going to live passionately during the given time.” 4
