BoA Will Play A Chinese Music Festival,

After recent comments from “Star of Asia” singer BoA hinted at retirement, fans were worried, and now she’s scheduled to play at a music event in China. Star News reported on July 18 that BoA will be performing at the “2024 TMEA 5th Tencent Music Entertainment Awards” (5th TMEA 2024), which will take place from July 19th through the 21st at the Macau Galaxy Arena. A music festival and awards ceremony called the “5th TMEA 2024” will be hosted by the biggest music platform in China, Tencent Music Entertainment. Epik High, ZeroBaseOne, NMIXX, NCT Wish, ILLIT, and BABYMONSTER are among the K-pop stars on the lineup. Standing with these performers is BoA, who has been in the forefront of the Hallyu movement since her debut. Actress BoA demonstrated her versatility as a multi-entertainer in the first part of this year by juggling her singing career with her acting career. In the tvN drama “Divorce Attorney Shin,” which aired from February 20th to the 20th, she played the role of a vicious villain. In her role as producer for NCT Wish, who made their official debut on February 21, she further showcased her production abilities. The 26th of March saw BoA’s new single “Emptiness” drop, continuing her musical career.

Nevertheless, BoA made a stir among her admirers in early April when she hinted at a retirement from singing, citing the stress brought on by hateful comments on her personal social media accounts as the reason. My contract continues until December 31, 2025,” she replied, adding, “Can I retire when my contract ends?” Until then, I shall be completely content singing BoA. After that, her agency SM Entertainment said, “The defamatory acts have reached a level that is unbearable for one person to handle,” and hinted at legal action, saying, “We have been collecting concrete examples of malicious acts, including false information, defamation, appearance insults, and sexual harassment against BoA.” In the hopes that BoA’s retirement suggestion was merely a passing notion, fans have shown their enthusiastic support. Thankfully, on April 21, BoA was able to meet her admirers at the “UTO FEST 2024 in Fukuoka” celebration in Japan. Additionally, she announced on May 14 through social media live stream that she would be performing in Korea in October.
