Milestone marks BoA’s 10th anniversary in J-Pop. In 2001 she made her way over to Japan at an age of 14.
Next year the movie Cobu 3D will be released. It’s a (3D) dance movie where BoA plays one of the major roles. I heard that it will be out in cinemas early next year, but on IMDb the release date is stated as October in the Netherlands, so perhaps it will only be shown in the US first :S.
Today I received three out of the five packages of K-Pop and J-Pop goodness that I’ve ordered. I haven’t ordered much this spring… until now that is.

Earlier today BoA tweeted a picture from her Cosmopolitan photo shoot where you can see the tattoo she has on her back. You could spot a part of it in the music video for Copy & Paste, but this is the first time I’ve seen the whole thing.
The photo shoot was for the April issue of Cosmopolitan. You can check out the scans from the magazine below:
This song has grown on me since I saw the first live performance. The music video is quite good.

It’s nice that she’s releasing more songs, but I’m not too fond of the whole repackaged album concept, since it means that fans who pre-order the album get less than people who wait for the second version. It’s still better than the “let’s release a gazillion versions of the same album” strategy though.
The file is a bit big, so if you have a slow connection you might want to use a download manager. Check the FAQ for details.
I think I promised once upon a time that I’d post a better version of Woo Weekend. Here it is

Hurricane Venus is the title track of BoA’s new Korean album.

It’s a pretty “normal” music video, but I like it more than Game. They got better use of the “Matrix” photo rigg in this one.
I really dig the “angelic” outfit and makeup.
Here’s the higher quality version of Game that I promised.
I’m not a big fan of the “80s workout tights”-outfit. She uses it in Hurricane Venus too.
I also thought I’d post a little teaser for the Hurricane Venus PV. […] there’s more! »
BoA is finally releasing a new Korean album! It’s called Hurricane Venus and will be out August 2nd 6th.
One of the new songs on the album is GAME, which you can check out below (performed by a blonde BoA).

Update: better version here
When I first watched the video, my first thought was along the lines of “wtf” when the song started, but the chorus is pretty good and it’s growing on me fast. It’s nice to hear BoA sing in Korean again .
The video is from a YouTube rip, so the quality isn’t the best. I’ll repost once a HQ version is released.
Woo Weekend is BoA’s latest Japanese single, which is coming out later this month. The song was made especially for the 25th anniversary of Disney on Ice in Japan.

Sorry about the so-so quality. The source video wasn’t the best. At least now the audio is somewhat in synch.
