Fans Raise Questions as Yong Jun-hyung Is Seen Smoking on a Paris Street
French Law Bans Smoking Near Children in Public Spaces; Violators Face Hefty Fines

Singer HyunA recently drew attention by sharing photos of her husband, singer Yong Jun-hyung, smoking on the streets of Paris.
On August 24, HyunA posted several travel photos, which appear to have been taken in Paris, France, on her social media account.
In the pictures, HyunA wore a gray top with a deep neckline, accentuated by a cross necklace, highlighting her signature sexy charm. Yong Jun-hyung matched her look with his own gray top and necklace, completing a coordinated couple's style.
One picture showed Yong Jun-hyung with a cigarette in his mouth, attempting to light it while standing on the street. While it's unclear whether he actually smoked, some online commenters expressed discomfort over the image.


Since July, the French government has implemented a decree prohibiting smoking in outdoor spaces commonly frequented by children—such as beaches, parks, areas near schools, bus stops, and sports stadiums—in a bid to protect minors. The law, however, excludes café and bar terraces from the ban, and the new rules do not apply to electronic cigarettes. Anyone who violates these restrictions faces a fine of €135 (approximately 210,000 Korean won).
HyunA and Yong Jun-hyung tied the knot in October last year.
