no close NEVER!!!boa is ok but not so close to SHINee.20%.I think Mehr SNSD are Mehr close to Shinee.80% but i dont like SNSD excavate Shinee i like they song but not Mehr with Shinee.sorry!!!
i wouldn't say really close, but quite close.. she's closer to Super junior and SHINee is closer to SNSD, F(X) and KARA. But there's a rumor saying minho started flirting with BoA. May be Minho likes her.. But SHINee seem to like BoA a lot since they always dance to her songs LOL
