No we don't know yet It can be aired on any another day...


Another article brought from her mother's book. Long but if someone is interested about pre-debut BoA, it's worthy reading.

BoA's Mother, "15 casting proposals for BoA, the reason why we chose SM amongst them is.."
(Interview ①)

In total there were 15 entertainment companies from which BoA received casting proposals. What reason could there have been to choose BoA's current agency SM Entertainment, in which BoA is continuing her trust for the 10th year.

BoA debuted in the Korean music industry at the age of 13 and even challenged Japan the following year. She became the female singer to take the number 1 spot when one counts Korea's representative female soloists. After BoA succeeded, there was a person who firmly anchored her so that she, having been thrown into the entertainment industry at a young age, would not be shaken.

BoA's mother Sung Youngja-shi raised the three siblings of pianist Kwon Soonhwon-shi who is the oldest child, music video director Kwon Soonwook-shi who is the second child, and the Star of Asia BoA. No matter who looks at them, they are successful children who have nothing to envy others about. Sung Youngja-shi published "The Golden Rule" and revealed the success story of the three siblings and her child-raising methods.

When BoA was in the 5th grade in elementary school she danced at a dance competition which opened at a neighborhood department store and came to be cast by her current agency SM Entertainment. Truthfully the main star of this performance was BoA's second older brother Soonwook-shi. BoA went up on stage and danced during the time the judging results were being brought out and caught the eyes of numerous scouts.

Sung Youngja-shi revealed during her most recent interview with Newsen, "We received 15 calls from entertainment agencies who saw that performance and wanted to cast BoA. However, we refused them all." It was a moment during which 'the Star of Asia' BoA almost came to not exist to the world.

Ms. Sung recalled that, "We rejected all of them because BoA was too young. However BoA went on about it the entire day. I asked our oldest what he thought. Our oldest vigorously recommended it. Because he was a child who attended an arts high school I thought that he would know more about it so my mind began to change a little."

Second child Soonwook-shi also wished to become a singer but was met with opposition. Why was only BoA allowed?

"It was determined that our second child danced well, but that his singing ability was average. BoA sings well so they sought to cast BoA rather than her older brother."

Could there be a special reason as to why they chose SM Entertainment, with whom BoA is continuing her 10th year, when offers came in from 15 places. For certain, the oldest brother's strength was influential in this.

"At first we refused SM as well. Our oldest said that the kids at his arts high school thought that even just auditioning for SM was a remarkable thing. He said that the one kids their age favored and wanted most was SM. Because our children are smarter and more knowledgeable than us it reached our thoughts."

Reading "The Golden Rule," one wonders how Ms. Sung is able to listen to her children's words without objection to such an extent.

Ms. Sung revealed her child-raising method by saying the simple statement, "I think that worse outcomes result when we oppose to what our children want to do."

When one thinks about what the presence of the singer named BoA is like, one cannot help but send applause to the valued opinion of Ms. Sung, who did not object to BoA's choice. 'The Star of Asia' BoA's birth began with the mother who supported her child's choice unconditionally.
