So after a long time I decided to do a post on BOA myself ^^
Let’s do the warm up with BOA’s latest CF ~!

BoA - Toshiba W55T CF

So we never got a chance to talk about BOA’s latest single “loose Your” mind but if you have noticed the song is even in the background song of the CF so we take advantage and squeeze the MV post here too ^^

BTW .. is there anyone else out there who has no flipping clue what in the world did she say in the CF????? *looking around* and if you are thinking watching a 3 min long behind the scene of the CF would give you a hint you are so wrong my friends^^

BoA - Toshiba W55T CF(The Making)

If you have not watched BOA’s latest MV here comes your chance .. please note Japanese took away all the videos from youtube couple days ago .. we got lucky someone reloaded it again!

BOA - Lose your Mind [MV]

So back to the business …
after that literally failed “Love Letter” single, the concept of the new “Loose your mind” single went on as what any other entertainment company in his right mind would do! …. that is to take the concept on sexy gears! right?

But you sometimes think … that SM guy who looses control over his dropped jaw with that smirky nasty smile whenever interviewer brings out BOA’s name .. would at least care this much for the girl in return of all these cashes BOA brought over the years (only if it was enough to make it to pay SM’s phone and electricity bills) at least save her image in the public eye! Nah my friends … Lee Soo Man proved to me once again that he is no different than a stereotypical label company!

Now .. it’s not much of her image (make up and dress itself) here on this MV that brings up the question of this “new-whatever-you-call-it” image … actually let me be honest! This is only if we exclude a little tiny part of the wardrobe! (in my opinion whoever suggested that gray panties in contrast to the all over black dress … did SM GOOD … cuz it makes even your brain to stare it’s soul damn right at the hang of her crotch the whole time) .. it’s more that camera’s zooms is 90% time FOCUSED on the butt area for mother of heaven and that is that Lap-dancing piece that got me unease!

BOA’s signature
This is our holiday special to those fanatics living across the oceans. This is for them to sit down practice BOA’s signature and draw it for themselves on her new single as a special Xmass gift! (am I too mean?)

As our BOA’s expert sLaVe informed me this single will be officially releases on 2007/12/12 and it isn’t like any other Christmas singles that BoA has released over these past 7 years! wow! *i guess we got the idea already!* so we too can’t help but wonder how the ranking will turn out this time! sLaVe is also hoping the way it goes BoA doesn’t (get forced) to turn into the next Koda Kumi *outch*

Hopefully this single will do better than what her last 2 singles did … If you are new to BOA, those last two singles as i recall both landed at somewhere in 17th position in ranking charts (correct me if i am wrong) I was corrected by our expert that LOVE LETTER actually won an award in Japan and it made it to the top ten for the first few weeks, then sank on to 17 ……Her other single, SWEET IMPACT, peaked at number 5 in Oricon. It didn’t do as good as her others, but it still made top 10 oricon. So anyways, I bet if this one fails too (in a sense that it won’t make it as far as sale rankings that BOA is known for) .. no matter if thunder blows south Korea apart in half, earth quakes sinks Japan under the ocean, Jesus appears in the between, we win the war in Iraq, Brittany spear gets pregnant for the third time … SM will defiantly pulls the “acting” card this time for REAL! Oh btw that Ballet story of SM’s new motion project that poeple been chewing their nails thinking it was gonna be BOA’s piece actually ended up going to GO ARA ppffew!

So this “Lose your mind” song itself as sLaVe explained me talks about boys not knowing what girls want, so she’s getting bored. She wants someone that can make her wild “Stimulate me with a Wild Beat… I want you more and more into my dreams”. Aigoo, stimulation around Xmass time!! wow that is unheard of!!! This just tells me how important this single’s ranking is to them (hey! but I can be wrong)~!

2nd cover of the Single

sLaVe: The other songs on this single will be ‘SMILE AGAIN’ (the OST she was asked to write and sing for a prestigious Japanese Drama that has been running almost as long as the American, “Days Of Our Lives”).

If sLaVe’s words are too hard to digest … here i am to save you ^^
Folks, it’s a DOG movie! … BOA was reported that she is super happy singing the track song of this movie with the main character a dog! She explained that is because she loves dogs too ^^ so turned out the DOg movie is for something else .. when i heard this one i felt like the song is so different than what they normally sing for a Dog Movie *why do i keep emphasizing the DOG part?* LOL!

NEW BoA website for her Avex company
Stay Tuned for Anyband’s new MV which is on the way! *jumping*

sLaVe: Artists of one of Korea’s biggest Entertainment companies, SM Entertainment, that is responsible for artists that have started/made the Hallyu bigger around Asia, now are back for their biannual album, this time releasing ‘SM TOWN 2007 Winter’ compilation.

Their title track, ‘Only Love’ deals with children who have been neglected and they need to be loved. It has a joint chorus with everyone singing. It’s now being used as the theme song for Korea’s Children Foundation and 5% of the album’s profits will be going to this foundation. I’m glad to see Boa finally joined with the rest of the company as last year she had to do her scenes separately from the rest and wasn’t in the groups shots.

A total of 12 songs will be:
01. 사랑 하나죠 (Only Love) - SMTOWN
02. 12월 27일 (On December 27) - BoA
03. Evergreen - 동방신기 (TVXQ!)
04. 첫눈이 와 (First Snow) - Super Junior
05. We Wish You A Merry Christmas & Feliz Navidad - 천상지희 더 그레이스 (TSZX the Grace)
06. Winter Wonderland - Kangta
07. Love Melody - 소녀시대 (Girls’ Generation)
08. Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas - 현진 (Hyunjin)
09. 눈꽃이 날리면 (When snow scatters) - 추가열 (Chu Gayeol)
10. Oh Holy night - 장리인 (Zhang Liyin)
11. 유년의 크리스마스 (Christmas of Childhood) - 송광식 (Song Gwangsik)
[Bonus Track] 12. 여행기 (TRAVELING) - 동방신기 (TVXQ!)

2007 Winter S M Town | F U L L A L B U M!, Korean links, Romanizations from soompi

ShenYue!: WOW! SM Town Winter 2007 MV is Out already!
after that half-ass MV they got together after all that we complained last fall for SM town Summer 2007 .. which it turned out to be from bunch of behind the scene vidoes pic editorial they got randomly edited and called it SMTOWN “SUMMER” MV this time not only they are on time .. but took time and actually filmed each of these people on separate shots .. check it out~!

If you know SMTown MVs (they are my favorites by the way) .. they normally get all these people sit in one set and film them while lip-synching .. now only the super popular ones *cough BOA+Kangta + etc… cough* if they are lucky get a single shot of a wink or a smile .. but this time poor SM people had ….

…. 13 suju guys + 9 sushi guys Ops! girls + 5 DBSK(how did they manage to find these guys still alive and breathing) + 4 the Grace (wonder how their Japanese invasion plan went .. the way SM didn’t give them much timing here and they seems depressed i guess we get the idea T__T) + that women ayummi (which by the way what is she up to these days? planning another set of plastic surgery?) + BOA (finding this one free is quite a headache) + that Kangta guy (dragged from China! how did the drama rating go?) + wait a second hmmm where did that always-present Isak women go? I hope i didn’t leave anyone out ….

… on separated shots and dual shots also all at the same time in one place in one day??!!!

Ya know, even in crappy clinical psychology lab i work for we couldn’t find a single day and time to get all staff together to take a single shot .. we ended up photoshopping the individual pictures to put them in one frame O.O!!! Seriously, Kuddo’s to whoever lost-soul was in charge of this project ~! wonder what rehabilitation center he/she/them is/are spending these days at! SM have to give this guys and the editor(s) for taping up all these tapes triple bonuses!!!
you know Lee Soo Man? it’s cold and around Xmass time?!!?? *puppy eyes*

[Okay ya’ll, I know this is a hot topic right now, and you guys are probably sick of reading about it. But just because I actually have a life and wasn’t able to write, DOES NOT MEAN I will just trash this article.]
Alright ya’ll, “Do you wanna talk, Do you wanna play, Do you wanna love?…”

ANYBAND, made up of Korean talents such as BoA, DBSK’s Junsu, Epik High’s Tablo, and Jin BoRa have a new song! Looks like my dream came true (or should I say “day dream…”?)~ They finally have another song, AND they had a concert together! Not only has their two sings, ‘TPL’ and ‘PROMISE YOU’ have been topping radio charts all over the Korean nation since its release, but even the CF is still getting praise!

This makes my day every time I read about this :] Anyway, moving on to the goods:

That right, there is the inside of the ANYBAND album. Looks pretty sweet, eh? >>COVER<< >>CD<< >>1 inside good<< >>2 inside good<<

Again, I have made it easier for you (lovely lazys) to view their so-far released videos of performances, previews, and fan stuff. >>AB/SB YOUTUBE PLAYLIST 2007/11/28< - A performance of ANYBAND’s new song, ‘DAY DREAM’. Sweet sound with a sweet performance. Listen to that crowd when they hear the sound of BoA’s voice, the lyrics of Tablo, the playing of BoRa, and Junsu’s voice!
- Fancam performance of ‘PROMISE YOU’. Sorry folks, people are being stingy, and so far it’s only fancams. I doubt there’s going to be anything new with ANYBAND by the time the higher quality stuff comes out, you’re on your own! But if you really are being lazy, you can email me at uhohspaghettios346@yahoo.com and ask for updates :]
- Closer performance, but shorter, of ‘PROMISE YOU’!
- ‘A WHOLE NEW WORLD’ by BoA and Junsu! I really like the vocals. But both their English…well… let’s just say that BoA can converse better, but she needs to get her accent better! The new trainees or groups from different entertainments have such good pronunciation now, but their conversational English is horrible!
- BoA doing ‘Meri-Chri’. Hey Shen-unni, remember this song? LOL.
Again, sorry, it’s not the whole thing!
- OH hellz yeah! It’s ‘GIRLS ON TOP’. This song never gets old. My first Korean BoA song, haha. Full version!
- Oh yay, Junsu fans can watch a pretty good fancam version of his SOLO song! I love him for his vocals (Well he’s cute too, haha, they always pick on him about his cute booty!~)
- MP3 version of ‘DAY DREAM’ Not the best quality, but it’s not live…
- BoRA playing a bit of her piano bits from the ANYBAND songs.
- THREE fan versions of people playing ‘TPL’ and ‘PROMISE YOU’.

The others that were there were EPIK HIGH and DBSK (because like BoA having performances, they did too), but of course, ANYBAND was the topic. Sorry guys, I haven’t found any videos yet, just pictures :T

Looking good boys…looking good…>>EPIK HIGH<< >>LOL JaeJong’s hand can be mistaken to be somewhere else…<<
_______________________________________
It was said that during the performances, Tablo held her hand! OMG THE DRAMA CONTINUES!~ Sigh, it’s so beautiful *o*. How many suitors does she have now?!
Haven’t had enough of BoA yet? Of course you haven’t! This girl’s busy, so you can bet I’ve got a big news article coming up about her recent achievements biggrin.gif Get ready, cuz it’s gonna be a >>kick*<< in your face! [hehe, okay, maybe not, but I wanted to share that pictures haha] so here’s more >>BoA (on top) and ANYBAND (scroll down)<< pictures from that night, compiled by BOAJJANG fans.
[*I don't know what's better... the laser poon picture (Sorry, I can't find it on my computer!) of BoA during the >>2006 LOVE BUG<< performance... I just love how these pics make her poon look so hot or godly. haha]

For those waiting for the KOREAN BoA blog, please wait. I don’t want to add that onto here, I’ll put it in another post.

Here is my say about MKMF and clarify some things up…even though the topic has kinda died down now and I was gonna post this yesterday but Chris posted and I didn’t want to conflict with her post!! If u haven’t read it, go now cuz Shenyue is leaving!! And as a warning… I got really heated while reading the comments and writing this and I had a crappy day at school and on my way home cuz it was Monday (when I wrote this) …so, don’t take it too personally and I’m sorry if it sounds repetitive!! At first, this post was just to clarify about the show and SuJu but turns out writing about the show go too long…and now the SuJu thing will have its own separate post…

MKMF turned out to be a disaster because of a few main factors:

1. Attendees and performers
Some people received an invitation but didn’t go because of busy schedules…even though I don’t get how…cuz MKMF is like the biggest award show in Korea and like everything stops just for this award show! Some people rejected the invitation because they already knew they weren’t winning so going to this show will be useless. Getting all pampered up for this show is worst than a wedding…it’s like Oscar’s night in Hollywood! Some people decided not to show up an hour before the show started *coughminwoocough* and because some people didn’t show up, some performances were cancelled. Ivy didn’t show up because she’s still in hiding…but she can’t stay hidden forever…she’s gonna have to come out and face the media one day and everyone is waiting for that day! For some odd reason, only Junsu and BoA were to perform for Anyband…when there are 4 people in it and Tablo was there. FTTS didn’t show up for who knows what reason…they’re probably busy preparing for their concert! Minwoo’s cancellation caused JYP to stand alone on stage for like 10 whole minutes with the ugliest outfit ever…its worst than Andre Kim’s space suit and painted hair! Haha! AND NO, MNET DID NOT LIE TO THE TVXQ FANS! TVXQ and BoA were to arrive back in Japan but the excuse of “bad weather” prevented them from showing up! The weather was fine in Japan and was only raining and beginning to snow in Korea but people still walked the red carpet with no jackets!! Because my friend is a crazy Gackt fan, she said that he was in Canada (BC specifically) recently for a photo shoot so he probably able to make it to Korea if he took off from Canada, even though the weather here isn’t much better than Korea!.

2. Awards
I’m tired of hearing all the complaints on the results! MKMF had its judging criteria and wasn’t just based on the votes by fans!! To read more about the rules of the voting process, click here http://www.arirang.co.kr/event/2007MKMF/introduction.asp. And scroll half way down the page for more info about the whole process before u go on ranting about who should get which award… I’m sick of hearing non-stop complaints from fans!! And complaining now won’t make Mnet change the awards around! The voting/judging process is not rigged unless “professional” judges were playing favorites or if SM really paid or kissed his way in for the awards…haha!! Regarding the “Overseas Artist Award” on Arirang, blame all those people who made like 20 accounts just to vote for their favorite artists!! I didn’t cheat though! I had an account and I’ve had it for over a year now. Arirang stopped online registrations a few days before polls closed so it was too late to save the crazy voting!! So to all those fans out there who’s complaining about it, stop saying Shinhwa shouldn’t get it just cuz they didn’t have much overseas activities. It’s because their fans are very united, very supporting and they can never stop voting!!

3. Mnet and fans
More controversy came up when the TVXQ fans found out that their boys weren’t gonna show up. They got mad because they bought tickets (and who knows much how they paid!) and stood in line all day (so they could get good seats…seats were assigned). At the beginning and during the show, Mnet staff still said the boys were gonna show up and then as the show went on, the mnet staff then said they were showing up so the fans stood up and wanted to leave. Mnet on the other hand, already had its doors locked. It’s to prevent people without tickets and permission/authority from getting in. Mnet has the responsibility for the stadium since they’re renting it just for the show. They also didn’t want the fans leaving because it’s disrespectful to other artists and the fans took up most of the seats…meaning if the fans weren’t there, the stadium wouldn’t have been as filled. But I would’ve sued them if they didn’t let me out! Mnet then “apologized” and said they never confirmed that the boys were coming! But when I watched the show, just before the show started, they had this train going across the screen listing in alphabetical order who was attending the show! TVXQ, BoA, FTTS, Ivy, Wheesung, the Shinhwa boys and some other artists were among that list that didn’t show up!

And thanks for reading this rant ^^
Now preparing to run from crazy fans…
