Queen of Enka’ Kim Yeon Ja Says “BoA-TVXQ’s Hallyu Activities Are Amazing”

Famous Hallyu Trot singer Kim Yeon Jae highly praised BoA and TVXQ on their Hallyu activities.

At the press conference that was held at the World Ruby Room at the Lotte Hotel in Jamshil-dong, Songpa-gu, Seoul on the 24th for her nationwide tour, Kim Yeon Ja said, “BoA and TVXQ are truly amazing.”

Regarding Korean singers who enter the Japanese market as Hallyu stars, Kim Yeon Ja said, “Before, it was disheartening to see celebrities entering Japan without doing any research and just singing. To be active in Japan, you have to be knowledgeable about the country but there are a lot of juniors who entered the market without any preparations.”

But Kim Yeon Ja praised some of her other juniors and said, “But now, a lot of celebrities learn the Japanese language and the culture before they enter the market. These days, they are smart and know how to succeed. BoA and TVXQ speak Japanese more fluently than I do. I don’t know how they did so well in such a short amount of time.”

She also stated, “If I ever get the chance to stand on one stage with TVXQ and BOa, I would work very hard with them.”
