When talking about celebrating her 20th debut anniversary, BoA started with a story about her fans. At first, BoA's fans came alone to watch her performances, but they came together at the next appearance. This continued until the fans came to watch with their children.

Some people married fellow fans after meeting at BoA's fan club. Even the background dancers of this veteran idol became couples and eventually got married. "I used to ask fans to study hard, but now I ask if they are on a work break," said BoA.

2. Agency Confident in BoA's Success

BoA started her career at a very young age. When BoA was still in 6th grade, there were more than 20 agencies contacting her, and SM Entertainment was the first agency to reach out to her.

Lee Dong Wook said that SM Entertainment was very confident in BoA's success, which is why they dared to invest 3 billion won (about Rp. 34 billion). BoA responded to that statement by saying that she was still young and didn't understand how much 3 billion won was at that time.

"The amount is not a joke, it's not just 30 thousand won (about Rp. 340 thousand). I helped the agency make a lot of money," said the singer born in 1986.

3. Health History
