BoA Radiates Happiness After Leaving SM Entertainment, Fans Note Her 'Rebirth'

K-pop icon BoA (Kwon Bo-ah) shared that the past few years were incredibly difficult due to personal matters, leading to a breakdown. While she didn't explicitly detail them, it's understood these included family and health issues. After leaving SM Entertainment, the agency where she spent over two decades, she initially anticipated an aimless wait. However, she has been diligently working on rehabilitation, likening herself to an ox, and has even established her own company. She plans to continue touring until next year, though she clarified it won't be a dance tour.

Her appearance now reflects a profound sense of relaxation and freedom. She smiles constantly at every event. Her eyes sparkle when open, and she even smiles with her eyes closed. Addressing malicious comments, she admitted to previously believing that 100% of the world disliked her. However, after seeing so many negative remarks, she now finds every word of encouragement incredibly precious, and positive comments stand out more. She described the feeling as a rebirth.

BoA also mentioned that after seeing a viral video of her performance of "Amazing Kiss" filled with fighting spirit, she felt compelled to regain her focus and the sparkle in her eyes, which she believes she has now achieved. Regarding her health, she is still undergoing rehabilitation after surgery and can now climb stairs. She recently resumed strength training and has gained weight, realizing that health and muscle are paramount after experiencing their loss.
