Well it's about time. I've always had the impression that BoA never had a normal life. Her friends were other singers and I don't think she ever dated anyone. Her life is glamorous but she had to pay a price. Artists like Ayu and Kumi had a chance to try things while growing up because they were pretty unknown during their teenage years.

In any way I wonder when she'll eventually leave to study. I'm pretty sure avex and SM won't be happy with this. She still has a Japanese album to release and her Samsung contract so I'm imagining it will take a while before she goes to the US.
