But yeah, BoA is popular, not like HUUUGE popular, but very popular nonetheless.
Or so I gather...

I heard that BoA is like the Ayu of korea...they love her there and she always tops the charts with her albums/singles...She's like No. 1 in Korea.

not really ayu of korea. but if u look at her popularity it mite be considered 'ayu of korea' cos its either a 'hate her or love her' popularity.some koreans dont like her cos they feel she 'betrayed' them by spending most of her time in japan

that's what i meant---the whole "either you hate her or love her" thing
I guess she isn't No.1 in Korea, but I do think she seems like an Icon, regardless. With all the photoshoots and TV-CMs and stuff....

I think she's popular enough, just not as much as Ayu, who is really popular.

I've also got the impression that she's popular but not the biggest star.

How many of you actually live in Japan to determine her popularity, or lack thereof?

^ Not true. Plus, number 1 artist is Lee Soo Young, she outsold BoA in sales in 2004 and in 2005.

And I don't agree you must live in Japan to know how popular BoA is.

But yes, from what I seen, she is very popular: her albums sells strongly and her tours are in the same venues as Ayu [but Ayu is more popular than Boa, obviously] and it's always sold-out and she does lots and lots of advertisements. Her single sales are nothing special though.
