BoA: If I were a producer, I would debut a hardworking trainee.
– But I really want to say this… I was in a system that wasn’t systematic at all.
BoA: They claim it was a systematic system, but it was really haphazard…!
BoA: I would like to experience a real systematic system too.
1. BoA might be referring to her early days in the industry, during the first generation of K-pop, when the systems were less developed compared to now
> It’s not like that. You need to watch the video to understand. When BoA debuted, the company heavily promoted the idea of a “systematic training” process for producing artists, using BoA as an example, claiming that anyone could achieve her level of success with the same training. However, contrary to the media hype, the system wasn’t as organized as it was made out to be. For example, the story that BoA learned Japanese from an announcer was exaggerated. They also claimed they spent billions on her debut, but the truth is that most of that money was spent on setting up the company’s legal entity, not on her training.
2. But weren’t all entertainment companies of her time like that…?
3. If you think about BoA’s age at that time, she’s really impressive…
4. She’s talking about the 90’sㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ큐ㅜ It’s after they trained BoA that they came up with a training regimen…
4. But BoA was really a genius. She was 15 in Korean age and she was perfect both in terms of dancing and singing if you compare her to her peers who debuted at the same age
5. But I saw a documentary where BoA said that she received various lessons and learned English and Japanese too. Is she talking about another instance here?
6. All start-ups are like that though…
7. BoA always seems to have a lot of unresolved frustration every time I see her. She has a lot of lingering resentment
8. I’m curious about her times now
9. How many things has BoA achieved for SM though… can she not even complain about this?… it’s not like she’s not a competent person either
10. Is everyone an SM worker here…? You guys are crazy about SMㄷㄷ
[instiz] BOA-SSI, IF YOU ARE UNHAPPY WITH SM, THEN LEAVEㅋㅋㅋ
No one’s stopping you.
It’s like she’s still under the illusion that she’s an important figure at SMㅋㅋㅋㅋ Classic ego trip
1. For real
2. Last time she said she was stepping away from activities, was that just a meltdown?
3. Didn’t she buy SM shares?
4. She just said what she felt, why are you offended?
5. Anyways, isn’t she gonna leave once this contract ends? She’s definitely leaving and probably said what she wanted before leaving
6. At that level of experience and with significant contributions to the company, it’s understandable that she made those comments
7. But the negative reaction might be because BoA tends to always be like this…; moderate complaints are acceptable, but…
8. Why are you so mad? An SM employee is saying thisㅋ who are you to judge?
9. Stop self-inserting yourself into SM..
10. Without BoA, your bias wouldn’t even have debuted in SM sigh…
