On the August 15 installment of JTBC's 'Witch Hunt,' SECRET's Hana revealed the main reason why she changed her name from Zinger.
As the girls were being introduced, the MCs brought up the fact that Hana used to go by Zinger as her stage name.
Sung Si Kyung joked, "It's probably because she got mistaken for a burger a lot" (In reference to the KFC Zinger Burger). Hearing this, fellow MCs Shin Dong Yup, Heo Ji Woong and Hong Suk Chun asked, "Wait, really? Is that really the reason?"
Hyosung chuckled and said, "She was pushed aside by the burger..." and Hana admitted it really was why she changed her name. "If you would search my name, you'd get more results about the burger first. So I decided it wasn't going to work out," she said.
That is seriously so sad and stupid. Like people couldn't distinguish the difference between a burger and a human being, in her own country, where Burger King isn't even that popular

No she meant it as in "more people were talking/results popped up about the Zinger Burger" when the word "Zinger" was searched so she changed her name
