BoA corrects typo and says she's ”retired”...Fans' concerns grow

Singer BoA's meaningful social networking messages have caused her fans to become increasingly concerned.

On the 6th, BoA posted a statement on her Instagram Stories, "Can I 'untoe' now that my contract is over?" on her Instagram Stories.

In response, some fans thought that BoA's 'untoe' meant 'exercise retirement' and that she wrote it as a joke, while other fans thought that it was a typo of 'euntoe' meaning 'retirement'. Other fans expressed concern that it seemed to be a typo for "retire". And the concern turned out to be true. BoA soon clarified, "I typed it wrong, didn't I? Euntoe (Retirement)."

BoA debuted in August 2000 and has been active in the entertainment industry for 24 years. However, she has recently been suffering from increasingly violent and malicious comments.

In an interview on CHANNEL A's 'News A' broadcast on the 30th last month, BoA expressed her belief in malicious comments, saying, "I hope that celebrities who have to lead a public life do not become a target for venting."

Fans and netizens alike expressed their concern and support for BoA's latest Instagram Stories statement.
