And how she makes any difference in rest of asia I woulden't know. SHe's still another AVEX idol, and her sales aren't that tremendous. .

Well for BoA, she is a
korean. It's a lot harder for koreans to make it big in Japan. Her sales may not be like ayu's but having 2xMillion selling albums is pretty good. Plus, 4 straight #1 original albums and also breaking the tension between mainly JP/KR (and to some extent CN) is imo, quite influential. Plus, she made it a lot more easier for other korean stars to try go outside of korea and there have been countless "BoA #2"s out there.
