BoA reveals her first impression of Yang Hyun Suk
On the May 29th episode of KBS2 TV‘s ‘Win Win‘, BoA, who was on the judging panel of SBS‘ ‘K-Pop Star‘, revealed her first impressions of fellow judges J.Y. Park and Yang Hyun Suk.
BoA revealed, “I saw J.Y. Park and Yang Hyun Suk for the first time during the first recording of ‘K-Pop Star’. J.Y. Park told me to call him ‘oppa’, but Yang Hyun Suk told me to call him ‘President’, which made me feel a bit uncomfortable… But after President Yang Hyun Suk came late to a recording, I couldn’t help but ask him, ‘Can’t you come a little earlier?’, and I began to comfortably call him ‘oppa’ after that incident.”
She also commented on her nickname “sharp tongue”, which was given to her because of her critiques on the reality program: “My personality is usually very straightforward. Even when I work, I can’t [say things pleasantly]. After I became a judge, I tried to say things in a feminine way, but my [real] personality eventually came out.”

BoA confesses that she still suffers from stage frights
BoA’s abilities as a performer have always been one of her renowned qualities. Despite her being a solo act, her stage presence can fill an entire arena, almost on par with the on-stage antics delivered by larger group acts. The singer, however, confessed that she still has yet to perfect her art as a performer.
BoA’s appearance on the show will mark her first ever appearance as a solo guest on a talk show program since her debut 12 years ago. As such, fans and the like are anticipating to hear the star’s personal stories, from her road to becoming Asia’s star, her struggles as a trainee, as well as her future plans as a performer.
“
I still experience stage frights,” the singer confesses on
KBS 2TV’s ‘
Win Win‘, “
It started way back when I made my Japanese debut, and it hasn’t stopped ever since.”
“
I discovered how lacking I was in my skills through a debut showcase in Japan,” BoA says, “
I think that’s when my fear of the stage began.”
She reveals that one of the hurtful commentaries she heard during then was,
“It seems it’ll take this girl at least ten years in order for her to hold a concert here.”
“
Ever since I was a trainee I always had trouble with executing notes in the higher range and have been criticized for it,” confesses BoA,
“My live singing was never my forte, and I was trained more intensely in areas such as dancing more so than vocals”
She adds,
“For me it was 20% talent, and 80% persevering hard work,” revealing just how much effort it took for her to be recognized as the performer she is today.
The singer also discusses the truth behind the $3 million investment that SM Entertainment is said to have put into her debut on this same episode, so catch it when it airs on May 29th!

BoA received offers from 15 agencies before her debut
On the May 29th episode of
KBS 2TV‘s ‘
Win Win‘,
BoA revealed her popularity among agencies before her debut.
BoA shared,
“When I was in the [final year] of elementary school, I attended a dance competition at a local department store with one of my older brothers who was an active b-boy at the time. Although I couldn’t participate because I was too young, I got to go on stage and dance for the supporting guest ceremony. Afterwards, I received business cards from 15 agencies.”
“I signed a contract with SM Entertainment in elementary school and started my trainee period. I commuted by bus and subway for 2 hours everyday by myself to go from my home in Nam Yang Ju, Gyeonggido to Kangnam, Seoul where the company office was.”
“Because the definition of a trainee was fairly unknown at the time, I was embarrassed to tell my friends about it and trained quietly.”
BoA also revealed the truth behind the $3 million investment from SM Entertainment that went into her debut.
