Im curious why BoA seems to keep evading the korean industry somewhat i know she will be back but she hadnt been there for a while then came with anyband for like a concert then went back and made her JP album. The she has been slated to release an album in the US this year...i just dont get why she doesnt make her Korean album...most fans seem restless as do i....does anyone else feel shes evading the industry for sum reason"?

[ANGELIC_B~]

I don't think shes "evading" Korea. She's concentrating on Japan and the U.S soon and other SM artists like SNSD and Super Junior have Korea pretty much covered. I think LSM switches his artists around so their schedules don't clash too much which is pretty smart because he's probably making the most of his artists without having them overlap.

I kind of wish she would go back to Korea because I'm tired of all those Japanese singles... There are too many of them -.-;

[Lucky_Doraemon]

More money to be made in Japan and if she is able to crack US even MORE money. If you have to be honest, the only way she'll be able to shift cd's in Korea is if she goes on variety shows etc etc and promote. In terms of cd sales, numbers are much more higher than Korea so even if she did release an album, it won't make as much money as it would have releasing one in Japan. Only the odd single or duet thingy with other peple (e.g Anyband) are released because she has other people to promote the song without her being there all the time as well as letting people know she is still actually singing. Just not working in Korea.

I think BoA quite wants to go back to Korea. It's her homeland, and she really just seems to spark to life whenever she speaks Korean and goes on Korean shows and at the recent Anyband concert, she seemed happier than she has in a long time.

The thing is though, BoA doesn't quite call the shots on her own "career" (if you can even call being an idol, that). LSM and SM Entertainment does. She is at their whim, and obviously their goal is money. And frankly, Korea's small little fanbase is nothing compared to the massive profit that she can rake in Japan, especially since Japan is a VERY lucrative music market.

Besides, LSM has no need for BoA to go back to Korea to earn money when other popular SM artists (like Super Junior, DBSK, Ayoomi, etc) can easily fill in the gap for her. Whereas, BoA is firmly established as a Japanese "artist," she's going to keep on building credibility and popularity there. Fans may seem restless, but they are not of the violently and scarily indignant kind such as fanclubs of OTHER groups, so LSM is perfectly content to keep BoA in Japan for as long as necessary. As for America? Well, that IS the world's biggest and most lucrative market to conquer... soo, if she can go there, well, obviously all the more power to her..!

I love her!
she's my favorite singeeer!
I wanna get her new CD "The Face"
but.. with the special of 2 CD's.. Is it expensive?

I think the only way Britney and BoA should be compare is on the popularity, well.. a little bit, cuz brit gets the award in this topic , haha.. well I read, I don't remember where, that the ones behind BoA's career are trying to get her into America to get more popularity to promote her.
What I think makes BoA better than britney is that BoA has been fighting for her career as a known and respected singer and Brit just gave up with all this attention, she exploded, and BoA don't, she still standing up, and working. The bad feeling I have 'bout this is that I am afraid that she really gets into stress for all this work and maybe end up like britney :nuts . I sure don't hope so, but.. is the only thing that keeps me wishing for her to take a break. I really admire her, I mean all this strength!!!... it's just amazing!.. That's why she's my favorite singer. :dance

BoA coming to Korea in August?


Hi! Great news for BoA fans living in Korea or Japan... (Im so jealous)

My best friend Yumi has a sister who works for Korean Air and said that she thinks BoA will be coming to Korea from Tokyo on Aug. 23rd. at about 7:15 pm to Incheon Airport.
The reason why she thinks its BoA is because of the travel representative who called in to make the plane ticket reservation (who also made prior reservations for other SM artist) was trying to get a seat in first class but wasn't able to. So she is sitting in Business class. I’ve tried to google it but haven’t had much luck. I think maybe she is flying in for the rumored korean album comeback.

Im not sure if anyone knows any more info on it. Unfortunately, I live in America so I wont be able to see her, but hopefully someone will see her and take pictures to post on the website

[micha_yesung's future wife]

wow really...
ohh i hope it's true...
if it is... it's going to be a big comeback from 2005...
i just miised seeing BoA perform in Korea....

btw... i'm new here

[kiiangel]

Here are some photos I got from soompi. BoA looked so fine in a hat! Wearing hats is never an outdated trend when she does it.

And a fancam of BoA and Hee Chul fooling around! Hahaha... look how dorky they are. Hee Chul was teaching her some of Suju's infamous dance moves. She did it relatively well. I wonder what they were doing. She wasn't singing when it was her turn to sing in Red Sun.

Apparently I remember that. They are of the same age range and both are rather hardworking artists. However it's difficult to determine the truth since BoA also said that she's closer to KangTa. She didn't literally said that, but she went along the lines of "I only know KangTa in SM Town!" BoA and Jae Joong make a cute couple; I have seen some comfortable interactions between them. It's kinda rare to me, because BoA seems really... I don't know, "separated" from the rest. Maybe it's because she's a solo singer and she moves around alone while most of the SM Town members are in groups.

boa songs are very good, I must say, I like a lot, his style is "pop" but with something of her own.... besides being one of the most popular singers of asia puts her in a position very favorable for her and her career, also for her fans.

As you all know, entering the US market for an Asian is definitely not easy. I watched the 2 previews of her single "eat me up" on her website. So... what do you think? will this be enough?
