BoA wrote, along with a photo of Amuro Namie, "When I stood in front of you I wasn't able to say anything.. but you were my idol when I was young and I think that from here on, sunbaenim's amazing performance will always remain in my memories.. Thank you for showing me stages where I could learn so much. I'm cheering for the human Amuro Namie sunbaenim's life from now on!! .... Sunbaenim really.. I love you!!"
