Kwon BoA is a beautiful name in Korean! You have obviously never heard it spoken. It's so much softer than most Korean names.

In fact, generally speaking, all of the names in this discussion sound 100 times more beautiful with their proper pronunciations. All of these butcherings are so hard to listen to.

I feel like if people are going to be fans of foreign music, they need to take the time to learn a little bit about the language and culture in question. Nothing annoys me quite like fans who think "Koda" is Kumi's given name, or that Utada Hikaru's family name is pronounced "Yu-ta-da".
