Former SISTAR member Bora is getting candid about her romantic preferences, revealing the qualities she looks for in a partner and the importance she places on chemistry in a relationship.
During her appearance on the YouTube show No Back Tak Jae Hoon, the singer and actress spoke honestly about her ideal type, past relationships, and how her expectations for love have evolved over time.
Bora’s comments came as she continues her solo activities following the release of her latest track, “Period.”
Speaking with host Tak Jae Hoon, she explained that while emotional stability and self-control are important qualities in a partner, she also believes that an initial connection plays a significant role in deciding whether a relationship can develop.
Her straightforward answers offered fans a glimpse into her personal outlook on dating, with Bora emphasizing that compatibility involves more than simply finding someone who looks good on paper.
Bora Says Emotional Stability and First Impressions Matter in Dating
During the conversation, Bora revealed that she prefers men who are emotionally stable and capable of exercising self-restraint.
She explained that these qualities have become increasingly important to her when considering a potential partner.
However, the former SISTAR member also stressed that a strong first impression cannot be overlooked.
For Bora, there needs to be a natural sense of connection when two people meet for the first time.
She described being drawn to someone when she feels that their personalities and energies naturally align.
Bora also spoke candidly about physical attraction, explaining that it is an important part of her dating criteria.
Although she does not necessarily imagine every aspect of a future relationship during an initial meeting, she believes that romantic chemistry needs to be present.
Her comments highlighted her practical approach to relationships: emotional compatibility matters, but so does the feeling that two people are genuinely attracted to one another.
When discussing her past boyfriends, Bora noted that their appearances varied considerably.
Nevertheless, she observed that they generally shared a warm and kind-looking demeanour.
Rather than following one specific physical type, Bora’s experiences suggest that she has been drawn to different kinds of people while placing importance on the overall impression they create.

Her remarks also showed that she is comfortable discussing the realities of dating without pretending that attraction plays no role in choosing a partner.
Bora Wants a Relationship Where She Can Be Taken Care Of
Bora also reflected on her own behaviour in relationships, revealing that she often finds herself taking care of the people she dates.
She explained that her tendency to look after others has sometimes led people to describe her as being like a mother in a relationship.
While caring for a partner comes naturally to her, Bora admitted that she would now like to experience a different dynamic.
Instead of always being the person who looks after someone else, she hopes to find a partner who will also take care of her.
Her comments revealed a desire for a more balanced relationship in which affection, support, and consideration flow in both directions.
For Bora, finding the right person appears to involve not only attraction and emotional stability but also feeling cared for and supported.
The conversation offered a more personal look at the former SISTAR member beyond her public image as a performer.
Her willingness to discuss her preferences openly also made the interview a memorable moment for viewers interested in her life outside the entertainment industry.
Bora’s latest remarks come as she continues exploring her solo career with “Period.”
While she has not revealed any specific plans regarding her romantic life, her appearance on No Back Tak Jae Hoon made her current relationship priorities clear: she values stability, natural chemistry, and a partner who can offer the same care and consideration that she gives to others.
