1. [+473, -24] BoA debuted at the same time the internet was becoming a thing in our country. I still remember all of the unbelievable things that people were saying about this young girl from sexual comments to hate comments about her family. At least the kids who are debuting today are able to prepare themselves for internet hate but BoA debuted before that was even a thing and had to endure a period of all those hate posts about herself... I find her amazing.

2. [+428, -14] I remember it really was bad back then. So many unbelievable rumors too from sex comments to even rumors hooking her up with Lee Soo Man.

3. [+196, -27] All of the people who are moms now were teens back then and stupid fangirls of HOT. HOT fans were the absolute worst of the worst. They wrote all sorts of hate comments about BoA whining about how SM was giving her more attention than their HOT oppas. They booed her at every concert, yelled swears to her face... quick reminder that this is the same fandom that sent blood letters and razor blades to Kan Miyeon for getting into a scandal with Moon Hee Jun ㅋㅋㅋㅋ You would think that they would've grown up now that they're ajummas but they're still turning all that hate to Moon Hee Jun now for treating them like ATMs ㅋㅋㅋ

4. [+17, -5] All of the haters now grew up to become the annoying moms that sit around mom cafes and start rumors about each other

5. [+14, -5] She has a strong head on her shoulders. Imagine enduring all that endless hate and coming out on top with your skills alone. I would've broken down and become a druggie or an alcoholic.

6. [+14, -4] It was needless jealousy that caused all that hate about her. Rumors just kept spreading and spreading among students. I reckon it really must've been hard for her before 'No. 1' became a hit nationwide.

7. [+13, -5] Imagine how scary it must've been getting so much hate right when you debuted at 15 ㅠㅠ

8. [+12, -0] BoA, you're forever the #1, the rest can screw off

9. [+9, -1] I remember so many crazy sexual comments about BoA on the internet.. I was young back then too but I remember it still.

10. [+9, -4] Yeah, a lot of idol fans back then hated on her... they were totally jealous. I couldn't have endured all that ㅠ

11. [+9, -5] I remember too, only because it was so shocking... calling her Lee Soo Man's second and everything ㅠㅠ
