BoA (보아) is a singer, dancer, composer, and actress. She was the host for Produce 101 Season 2. She was the representative of the nation's producers (viewers) and helped the trainees along the way.

Career & History

When BoA was eleven years old, she and her brother went to a SM Entertainment open audition. Although her brother was the one who initially wanted to audition, the agency noticed BoA and offered her a contract the same day. Her parents initially opposed, but after her brother's encouragement and persuasion, the agreed.

BoA trained for two years under SM Entertainment. She then released her debut album ID;Peace B at 13 years-old. While this album reached moderate success, her agency started working on her debut in Japan, which forced BoA to quit school so she had more time to prepare.
One year later, in 2001, she released her first mini album Don't Start Now, and then took a hiatus from the Korean market to work in Japan.
Her Japanese debut album was released in 2002, and titled Listen to My Heart. This album was a breakthrough in BoA's career. She became the first Korean artist to become a RIAJ-certified million-seller and debuted atop the Oricon.

One month later, she released her second album No. 1 in South Korea. This became the fourth-best-selling record of the year in South Korea. With this found success, she continued to grow, develop and garner success as the years passed.

In 2008, BoA made her American debut with the single "Eat You Up". She later made a self-titled album and released it in America as well. However, her career in America struggled to gain traction, so she ultimately returned to Asia around 2010 to continue her career.
BoA did make her Hollywood debut in a dance film titled, Make Your Move 3D, and it was released in 2013.

BoA continues to gain fame and success to this day. She has continuously worked to release music, collaborate with other artists, and even try her hand in acting.
