This Christmas show will be a one man live with her as the star, and shall take place on December 20th and 21st for two nights only. Tickets go on sale November 20th to the general public.

Although BoA has been promoting her new album in Korea, it is nice to see her lining up shows for the Christmas season. It is traditional for Japanese artists to have Christmas and New Year’s shows, and it just goes to show how acclimated she is to the Japanese music scene.

BoA’s Childhood Photos Revealed

BoA’s childhood photos, which were recently released through her mother, Sung Young Ja’s book, The Golden Rule, have stirred much interest. The book reveals BoA’s younger years and the events to her debut, among others.



The first photo shows BoA playing a Korean traditional instrument, called the gayageum. It is said that the artist preferred it over the piano. BoA started playing the piano at the age of five, but soon had her eyes only on the gayageum. It was only after three years of learning the traditional instrument that BoA decided singing was better.



Another photo is of BoA with her second brother/music video director, Kwon Sun Wook. It was revealed that it was him who actually taught BoA dance during her childhood years.
