♔ General talk!

The release of the book written by BoA’s mother, “The Golden Rule,” has revealed many “behind the scenes” stories regarding BoA’s past. One story in particular has caught the attention of netizens because it accurately shows the sacrifices BoA had to make at such a young age in order to achieve her dreams.

BoA’s mother, Sung Young Ja, wrote that BoA was admitted to a private junior high school, but had to give it up in order to train in Japan to become a singer.

Scared for her 14-year-old daughter’s future, Sung was highly concerned about the choices laid out before them until BoA confidently stated that she would like to choose her dream over the school. Sung was impressed by her daughter’s drive and decided to respect her decision, eventually sending her to Japan with SM Entertainment. Fortunately, ten years later, BoA has now become the star of Asia.

The picture revealed along with the story shows BoA standing on a platform as her elementary school’s class president.

Netizens commented, “She’s such a respectable person. At such a young age, she had to fight against herself in order to get recognized” and “Both BoA and her parents are so amazing for finding a dream and working for it.”

BoA’s recent confession about wanting to be reborn as a SNSD member has been drawing attention lately.

During a recording of ‘Yoo Hee Yeol’s Sketchbook‘, when asked, “If you could use a time machine to go back in time to when you were 13, would you have still made the same decisions as now?” She answered, “If I could be reborn, I want to become a member of SNSD.”

She continued, “Because I had to develop and promote all by myself ever since the beginning, it was hard for me. I want to use my remaining time focusing on growing taller.”

Her witty comment aside, she later gave a more sincere response, as she said, “SNSD and f(x) may be able to practice in a nice building now, but back then I had to practice in a basement that leaked every time it rained. Hwanhee oppa and I scooped up the leaking water whenever the H.O.T oppas said they had to practice.”

During this recording, BoA also revealed more about her current self as a woman in her 20s.

When she was asked about her leisure activities, she replied, “Ever since I debuted, I’ve never had more than 10 days of rest because I’m always busy, however, whenever I do get free time, I like going out and watching movies, and I like drinking alcohol. If there is ever a movie I want to watch, I always watch it.”

Πρεπει να ηταν πολυ δυσκολο για ενα παιδι 13 να κανει ντεμουτο μονο του, να κανει Promos overseas και ολα αυτα... Ιδιαιτερα solo και οχι στα πλαισια καποιου group, οπου οσο να ναι εχεις υποστηριξη...
Παντως, η προσπαθεια απεδωσε!! Ηταν υπερβολικα καλη για να μην ειναι solo ετσι κι αλλιως!
Και για μενα καλυτερα που δεν εκανε τελικα debute με τις SNSD... Δεν ξερω, εχω την εντυπωση οτι δεν θα ταιριαζε τοσο καλα στο στυλ που εχουν... Μου φαινονται πολυ διαφορετικες σαν στυλ μουσικης κ εικονα που προβαλλουν!
