BoA's first Korean comeback in over five years is expected to be on August 2, 2010. BoA has always showed the urge to make a Korean comeback for several years but it seems that her Japanese and American activities have kept this plan on hold. BoA has just finished recording the last song on her album yesterday on July 24th according to her Twitter account.
Last night at exactly midnight, Korea time, SM Entertainment released BoA's new music video titled "Game." The song was composed by Jinu, who composed Brown Eyed Girls' hit song "Abracadabra," in 2009. The song is very catchy, non-repetitive, and in many ways a fresh break from the same-old girl/boy group K-pop which dominates the Korean music industry these days.
The music video depicts BoA's sexy and seductive invitation of her lover to her fantasy-filled game world. With trendy props, chic clothing, unique ideas and moves selected by BoA herself, this music video was her project to show appreciation for waiting Korean fans. Makeup was done by world class makeup artist Gordon Espinet who complimented BoA's ideal eye length and majestic top lips which was emphasized by a red lipstick.
Her music video was a hit among Korean netizens. Thousands of viewers praised her for her artistic talent, her long-awaited comeback, and addictive music video which could only be accomplished by BoA. It seems mang Koreans and foreigners alike eagerly craved BoA's return to the Korean music industry. Will she reclaim her stardom in Korea? We will have to wait and see.
On a side note, BoA asked her Twitter followers to help her decide an English title for a song titled "하루하루," in Korean. Meaning "Day by Day," in English, it seems that she did not like that title since it's a cliche title. In the end, she decided to name it "Ordinary Day."
Please support BoA by purchasing her new Korean album "HURRICANE VENUS," which will be released in Korea on August 2, 2010.
