Edit: WWOW! … we just learned BOA debuted in her first beer advertisement.
BOA was chosen as Hite’s new advertising model!
“We had a hard time picking the new model for the commercial because we wanted to have a celebrity who can show her hidden cheerful, honest and liberal side. In the end, we decided on BoA who is a global star for our new model,” a HITE authorized personnel revealed.
The commercial concept was to show a candid real talk of BoA that is why there was no basic copy or a script that the production team will follow.
BoA shot the commercial for about 6 hours and she said that being able to drink beer during the shoot helped in relieving the stress.
It was just yesterday we were talking about BOA and her new drinking habits …
When did this baby (Meaning the CF) pop up from?
Man, these Businessman Ajusshis really know what they are doing!
Don’t you think? They can even smell the right time to sign up for their CFs!
*scary*

It feels as if the world has come to an end! we have seen this bunch of SUJU wanna-be(s) collaborations with everyone you can think of so far … from Eugene to SEEYA but now Sushi-Nova!? what on earth were they thinking!!! the last thing I wanna see is to get them dance “Tell Me” around the stage!!! One thought, How much do they pay around to get these collabs? … if there is a good bucks somewhere we don’t mind helping out a bit!
But seriously if they had to do this many collabs to get their name around then shouldn’t they think there is something fundamentally wrong with this boy band to begin with!?
Wish they would at least pity on us …. ever since their one hour long debut MV, we haven’t had enough time to digest them. Now, they have them combined with 9 look-alike cheerleaders we can’t even distinguish apart since this very day!!!?? why not add suju to the league next time? I donno about u people … but to me … this CF seems like has been filmed in a random high school with bunch of even more random high schoolers!

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!

[Info: This SamSung AnyCall commercial features ANYBAND; Kwon BoA, Xiah Kim Junsu, Tablo, and BoRa]
[The message of the picture is really nice. BoA holding her finger in a number one right next to the sign that says LOVE, showing 'ONE LOVE'. then the band being together showing unity and happiness.]
FRAPPIN’ FINALLY! Fuack man, I’ve been waiting for this commercial for so long. How long exactly? 2007/9/03! And it was only weeks later in early October that I realized that there still hadn’t been a commercial which was completely odd. Odd because Jessica Alba and Lee Hyori’s commercial together was released less than two weeks after it was reported. And that’s when I though….
“And what is up with the CM, BoA-unnie?! I know it doesn’t take that long… unless that whole CM was just a story cover up and you really made my dreams come true because you’re really with JUNSU! I mean, when Jessica Alba and Hyori did a commercial in Vancouver, Canada, they released the CM less than two weeks later! And they still had time to make interviews and translate it and etc! So that’s it! Junsu was the boy you were being blackmailed for by that college student, and you knew it was forbidden, and because MR. SM is such a jerk and not letting you back to Korea, he got you covered with money!
It’s been how many weeks now since the news and spotting of you guys in Australia, Brazil, and buncha other places? And the reason why those two other celebs were with you was because you went on a double date/vacation so it’s less obvious! Oh, you guys are so smart and clever! You know that if you were to get caught in Korea, all the crazy DBSK fangirls would kill you and you might loose a lot of your female fans that were DBSK fans as well (if such things exist anymore, those damn hating ajuumas…!), and that’s why you are afraid to come back to Korea and have been absent!“ *cricket cricket* Hey, every fan has their fangirl/fanboy tourette’s syndrome keep acting up! And it didn’t help that the >>Teaser website<< was so cheap about it’s information!
Okay, so I’ll shut up now so you can watch and ENJOY this commercial.
Before I get onto the news about the four people, I will share my opinion (but what’s new? I always do!).
When the commercial was finally finalized but not yet released, while looking at the previews and pictures I thought to myself “The heck? Every time there are more pictures for this commercial, it looks more and more like a movie! And it wouldn’t surprise me seeing as it took them forever just to release!”
But now that it has been released, I can say I was quite satisfied. And because I like to get other people’s opinion other than mine, here’s what someone from BoAsHouse thought about the commercial and how they interpreted it:
“The campaign tries to imply that today’s societies are becoming a world without love, fun, or happiness. We as citizens are merely slaves to society, going to work, eat, and sleep, without any time for leisure. Samsung’s new logo, “Talk Play Love,” tries to persuade people to have some leisure in their lives by talking, loving, and playing on their cell phones.” – BoAsHouse
To me, it seemed to me like some epic suspense/action movie (like Rseident Evil, minus the zombies) where people are ordered to do certain things only and completely forget what technology has done for them but also forgot how to live their loves because of all the work they have to do (thanks to technology). So the four star’s mission is to get everyone to act more human again and do that by actually communicating with other people (through their sexy phones of course!).
Haha, but one part I still don’t get is why they got a couple of hot chicks to take off their shirts just because they were free from being caged up. Come on now, really, would THAT be the first thing you’d do, girls?
Mmmm, Tablo looked hotter than Junsu in the commercial. Junsu is my davorite DBSK member, but for some reason, I recognized Tablo more (which always seems to happen even in DBSK. Poor Junsu!). It’s odd how in the conference thingie, BoRa looked a bit chuby but in the commercial, she looked normal. Anyway, other than that, everyone looked great! ~ I was totally digging their fashion. It’s like watching a Korean movie where all the urban, dancers, or bad kids are dressed like that. That kind of fashion is nice to me. Plus, it’s ED HARDY! Mmm, Ed Hardy <3 And did you notice how short BoA’s skirt was? It’s as short as Hyori’s in her drama, ‘If in Love… Like them’.
Oh yeah… and the phones (right, I forgot). Man, SamSung phones are so hot! They always have the best commercial people to advertise. I've got a SamSung phone myself, but I'm looking to upgrade. I guess commercializing with celebrities really does work! How do I know for sure? Well, me, as a fan, wants to get Samsung phones because people like Junsu, BoA, Jun Ji Hyun, and Lee Junki advertise it. Plus, the songs are catchy! In America, how often is it that an artist writes/sings a song JUST for a commercial? That's some great marketing Korea has!
AND THE SONGS! Freaking catchy buggers! I wonder which one will be their advertisement song for commercials... BoRa really got me with her piano skills. It was cool how she was the only one really playing her instrument. I’m not one really for faking instruments since I actually do play. But oh well, at least the rest of the three are talented in their own ways!
And ohmigawd, did you see that "drama" thing going on that Tablo and BoA did?! It's almost like T: "BoA, I love you, but I can't tell you" B: "Lalala, love, anylove, anyband, lalalala, everyone be happy, lalala" T: "Sigh, she'll never know. Man, she's such a kind person". Oh man, if there isn't going to be an album for this group, at least let there be a drama! THAT'D BE SO HOT, MR. SM! BRING BOA BACKKKKKK!!!!!! Though I sorta wanted Junsu and BoA to be the focus… now that I see how cool and cute Tablo is (wow, I can’t believe I haven’t checked out that much Epik High to know that Tablo was that cute) I definitely would support this pairing *nod nod*.
All in all, you can tell I loved it. Probably more than the hot commercial of Lee Hyori and Jessica Alba together (those two are hot)! Do I miss Hyori and Jun Ji Hyun doing it? Yeah I do, but at the moment I don’t care! Then again, Jun Ji Hyun most likely is still a sponsor since she actually is a model, and her commercials were so sexy. Sorta disappointed too though because I was wishing the rumor was true about Junsu and BoA being lovers… Rats! >>Photoshoot picture<<
The commercial gave a good feel vibe because it promoted happiness of course :] And the band had good chemistry together.

Other news on the commercial related things:
On 2007/11/07 (Korea time) at 12:30 in Seoul HanKangDonChi JanWonJiGu SeonSangCafe Fradia, BoA will attend the ANYBAND preview/press conference. This will be BoA’s first commercial as an AnyCall model. This will be SamSung’s fourth series of epic CF stories; the others being AnyMotion, AnyClub, AnyStar – all starring Lee Hyori as the main roll. – suejinners @ Soompi and sLaVe
“If Samsung decides to let go of Hyori, then this will mean that BoA will replace Hyori in perhaps the most coveted job among female entertainers in Korea.” -BoaJJAng
Luckily, for fans like me, there has been a rumor of an ANYBAND album and an ANYBAND concert! Right now, it seems like an album will be more likely since there’s more hype about it. I for one enjoyed both the songs on there, and if anyone wants to know the Romanization (who sang what as well) and the mp3s, email me : uhohspaghettios346@yahoo.com
Here is the showcase: >>They look so different in normal clothes now, haha<< The many blogs and forums I read have picked on poor Tablo for his weirdness around BoA! >>Wouldn’t blame them, he does look weird in this pic!<<
Poor him! I guess it’s because BoA pulled a Hyori and made him go gaga just because they were finally able to collaborate!
“An interviewer asked BoA what her first impression was of Tablo. BoA complimented him by saying “He was very shy, yet he seemed very clever, smart, and he was charismatic as well – in fact, he was the mood setter of the entire shoot” (me : he did act really good! Like I said, there needs to be a drama!) She then went on and told them that the first thing she did when she met Tablo was asked to take a picture with him. (me: Oh come on, how special. Everyone knows she loves taking pics with other people. She’s sentimental and she always has her camera with her. Hello, voted number for the Korean to most likely take the best album pictures by themselves or in general!)
Tablo then said “I’m actually a big fan of BoA’s, so I was very shy, yet extremely excited and thrilled at the same time! I think BoA’s style of singing and music is very powerful and attractive.” (me: uuuu~) I personally think that BoA’s adorable and extremely sweet, Tablo on the other hand looks like he did a crazy transformation into Stephen Hawking – what happened?!” – Johnnydrama @ AllKPOP and sLaVe
(Did you hear all the fangirls scream for Junsu?)
Lastly, the Teaser Website had a poll on who they thought should be the leader. I didn’t care of the outcome because I knew all the DBSK fangirls would of course vote a million times for Junsu, it wouldn’t have been a shock, And it didn’t matter because BoA was clearly the lead singer. She was the only one with the mic all to herself, not faking an instrument. Correct me if I'm wrong because I don't watch much DBSK anymore, but Junsu never seemed like the type to lead anything, sometimes he'd be too shy. He may be the topic of things sometimes, but never to lead. He's too shy.
BoA has her shy moments, but for the most part, she's pretty out going. And that's what a leader needs to be in a group like this. >>The results taken before aired commercial<<.
For those wondering what the teaser website was saying, Translations:
“She is in charge of devising a plan to take back ‘TALK, PLAY, LOVE’ [which, I presume, is some kind of a cultural movement of which BoA is a part]. Her powerful voice spreads through the dry city like a rain. To her, those who steal are sinners, but those who remain silent are just as unforgivable. There is no one who would not be overwhelmed by her charisma.”
‘Day Two’ shows a poll, in which visitors are asked to pick the leader of AnyBand. You have to be a member of AnyCall.com to be able to vote.” -BoaJJang
