BoA (クォン ボア)

In 2025, when talking to a first-year university student (born in 2007) about BoA, they look confused, so I have to start by explaining GOT the beat.

大学一年生（2007年生まれ）にBoAの話をしてもきょとんとするので、GOT the beatの説明から入らねばならない2025年。

某Dレックスの店内BGMは邦楽のインストゥルメンタルなんやが、BoAことクォン・ボアさんのQUINCYかかって草生えたわ えっこれQUINCYちゃうん？ってなったんはめちゃくちゃ早かったが、いや、まさかな、、と思うやん🤔 ずっと紛うことなきQUINCYや たしかメリクリの前なんやわ 高3、同い年、黄金期！

The background music in a certain D-Rex store is instrumental Japanese music, and I burst out laughing when BoA, also known as Kwon BoA, started playing "QUINCY." I was like, "Wait, is this really QUINCY?" It happened so quickly, but I thought, "No way..." 🤔 But it was definitely QUINCY. I remember it was before "Merry Christmas," during my senior year of high school, the same age, the golden era!

Here’s the translation of the tweet text: "When listening to love songs: [Alone Again] & [Trust You] - Yuna Ito, [With You] - Kana Nishino, [Missing Promise] - Konomi Suzuki, [Amazing Kiss] & [Dearest] - BoA Kwon, [Sakura Regret] - Flower, [Metamorphosis] - iScream, [Elder Flower] - Aguri Onishi. It might not match my image."

The tweet translates to: "Debt hell, self-caused self-determination... - #Koudoukai (impostor) - #KwonBoa (#Medusa) - Some Abe (demon) - Some Takashima (crazy person) - Some Buchine (shit monkey) - Hiroko Yahagi (beast) - Riyo Yahagi (shura) - Others (including #rich people) Since the repayments aren't coming, continue to bear all of your sins on your own!! Until you can receive it, it's endless..."

Here's the translation of the tweet: "@a RedVelvet aespa got the beat BoA Girls' Generation trading cards Exchange: Offering → Image Seeking → Red Velvet Seulgi, Wendy not owned > Other members not owned Chillkill, cosmic priority Refer to other tweets Please reply or DM, thank you 🐻 pic.x.com/KPJKMrPCxV"

The tweet translates to: "@a RedVelvet aespa got the beat BoA Girls' Generation trading cards exchange. Offering → image. Looking for → Red Velvet Seulgi, Wendy (not in possession) > other members not in possession. Prioritizing Chillkill, cosmic. Please refer to other tweets.

The tweet translates to: "Got the beat. Either way, it seemed like there was nothing to do on stage, but it looks like I won't be able to see it at all anymore... The song was definitely a bit underwhelming, but it was legendary to see BoA-chan, who has continued to run solo, standing as the center of a girl group and being in the same group as the two from SNSD, even if just for a moment. 😭"

The tweet translates to: "If the WisDani gets excited again about interacting with BoA at Sumicon Tokyo, I will show GOT the beat and awaken all the older sisters to their melody, while also increasing the number of friends who will cry over the incredibly low chances of seeing this unit again in the future. Thank you in advance!"

♪Step Back 🎤 I want more people to know that BoA debuted as a member of GOT the Beat in 2022!! #BoA #KPOP #WantToConnectWithKPOPFans #WantToConnectWithMusicLovers pic.x.com/muptGAC2ag

The tweet translates to: "With the afterglow of yesterday's BoA fan meeting and today being Taeyeon's birthday, I was watching various things and ultimately ended up at GOT the beat. They really are an amazing group. I want them to perform live as GOT the beat... while mixing in each member's solo songs..."

The tweet translates to: "BoA is still active in the Korean group GOT the beat, which is amazing. She's performing alongside younger kids. #cnt873"

Here's the translation of the tweet: "[MPD FanCam] GOT the Beat BoA FanCam 4K 'Step Back' (GOT the Beat BoA FanCam) | @MCOUNTD... youtu.be/DYhIj7p8FNo?si… Recommended on YouTube 👀✨️ I wonder if GOT the Beat will release a new song soon~"

The tweet translates to: "If we were to form a group with GOT the Beat, it would be Fujimoto or Tanaka (Boa), Natsuyaki (Taeyeon), Okai (Hyo), Miyamoto (Seulgi), Takagi (Wendy), Yamazaki Yume (definitely Winter), Kitahara (Karina). If Hyo becomes Sugaya, I would be completely satisfied." (Note: The names mentioned are likely referring to members of various K-pop groups and their respective roles or comparisons.)
