Early Life and Background
A-na was born Roh Yu-na on December 20, 2008, in Suwon, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea, and grew up with her parents and an older sister born in 2005.
She attended Seokhyeon Elementary School and later Heungdeok Middle School, though she withdrew early to focus on her idol training, going on to pass both her middle school and high school equivalency exams. She became a trainee during her second year of high school, joining SM Entertainment exactly one day after fellow member Ian.
Her audition stood out for an unconventional song choice — rather than a typical pop or ballad selection, A-na chose to sing the South Korean national anthem, and she performed a rap during the trainee showcase, a genre outside what would become her primary focus within Hearts2Hearts.
She trained for roughly two to three years before debut.
Career Highlights
Debut and Hearts2Hearts’ Formation
Hearts2Hearts was first teased publicly during a surprise trailer at SM’s 30th Anniversary SM Town Live concert on January 12, 2025, before the eight members were formally revealed through the “Chase Your Choice” video on February 3, 2025. A-na officially debuted with Hearts2Hearts on February 24, 2025, with the single album The Chase.
A Record-Breaking Debut
The Chase made an immediate commercial impact, selling 408,880 copies within its first week on South Korea’s Circle Chart — a new first-week sales record for a girl group’s debut album.
The album went on to be certified Platinum by the Korean Music Content Association, and Hearts2Hearts earned their first music show win on March 12, 2025, on Show Champion.
A Recognized Visual

As the tallest member of the group alongside leader Jiwoo, her presence has become a visually distinctive element of Hearts2Hearts’ stage formations and choreography.
Continued Momentum
Following their explosive debut, Hearts2Hearts continued releasing new music at a steady pace, including the singles “Style” and “Pretty Please,” and their first EP, Focus, released October 20, 2025. The group returned again in 2026 with the EP Lemon Tang, with A-na continuing to develop her performance role across the group’s evolving discography.
Personality and Public Image
A-na is described by those close to her as quiet, but kind and sociable once fans and fellow members get to know her, a personality that’s earned her genuine affection within the fandom.
She’s known as the member who cries the easiest among the group, tearing up both when she’s upset and when she sees someone else crying — a sensitivity that fellow members have noted with warmth rather than teasing.
She’s also known for a sweet, grounding habit: the first thing she does after waking up each day is contact her older sister, a small ritual that speaks to her close family bond.
That emotional openness has made A-na one of the more relatable members within Hearts2Hearts’ lineup, particularly for fans who appreciate seeing an idol who doesn’t hide her feelings behind a purely polished public image.
