Hay Mar Nay Win

Her maternal grandfather was Bo Zeya, one of the Thirty Comrades that founded the modern Burmese Army in 1941.

Additionally, her uncle was Dagon Taryar, a renowned writer, who taught Hay Mar singing while he played the piano.

Her father was friends with Myanmar Pyi Thein Tan, from the LPJ band and prominent singer in the 1970s-1980s.

The success of her song Yone Lar broadcast on MRTV in 1986 was the main start of her popularity among audiences.

In late 1988, her prerecorded album before she left the country was released, named Pyan Yaw Pay.
