What is a strong coreography for you? BoA doesn't need to be on baggy pants or wearing sneakers to show that she's a killer dancer (Copy & Paste, The Shadow etc) It didn't need to be "hard".
The problem is that the coreography was poorly done imo. The fan feather incorporation was a nice idea but nappytabs didn't know how to pull it off. I can save only a few parts.
I can resume the rest as "BoA looking pretty"

Hahas well a strong choreography really depends on the individual and how he/she conceptualizes a strong choreography to be. I've done hip hop in the past and for some of the easier looking choreography, it was actually extremely difficult to do.

Like I mentioned previously, the choreography of Kiss My Lips is very feminine, seductive, and sultry because of the lyrics. When someone tells you to "COME AND KISS MY LIPS", you would not want to show them brute strength and show that you can kick their butt with your strength. Instead you would want to invite them in a subtle and sultry way. I think the choreography went very well with her lyrics and she still maintained class and elegance, and I am pretty sure that was the intention of Nappytabs when they created the choreography.

When BoA did "Girls On Top", she had to incorporate a choreography that showed female strength and empowerment because the lyrics were about proving that women can be on top too with their strength! So I think a good choreography is one that can express and translate the lyrics into a visual (dance).

Yes but unfortunately BoA isn't helping herself :/
Don't get me wrong, I love Kiss My Lips and all but it doesn't show any of her abilities. The coreography is easy like all the girlgroups and she doesn't show any of her vocal skills. That's why some knetizens said that she "downgraded" from Only One.
I know she's not a rookie but she needs to show to the "new" public what she's capable of

Even her Sketchbook performances were lacking compared to 2012's performances :'(

I really have to disagree with your comment about how "Kiss My Lips did not show any of her abilities". The choreography was not the best but its because of the type of song that she made. With this song, she is on point with how she channeled her emotions and singing skills onto the song. Her production skills were top notch in my opinion with the mastering, instrumentals, and her voice production. I asked a lot of my friends who produce music and write lyrics and they told me that she did an outstanding job which I totally agree with. Kiss My Lips was meant to be a sultry and sensual song; and she expressed through her lyrics and vocal channeling perfectly what the song was intentionally made for.

She did show the "new" public her potential, but the music has an 80's American sensual funk sound that of course, is not meant for everyone. Especially the korean public, as you can see with their reaction. Also with regards with her Sketchbook performances, having to be requested to sing the same old hits songs AGAIN & AGAIN is kind of tedious, like "NO.1" and "My Name". As a singer and musician, I would be sick and tired of having to sing the same old hits from 10 years back in every concert or live performance, and variety show. The crowd really needs to move on from the old BoA and see/listen to the BoA that is present now.

Album is up for preorder on yesasia! yessss! Although it says the release date is the 15th? Maybe the physical album is getting released a few days after digital?

According to the korean translations, the physical release will be in stores, on the 13th of May.

My korean not that good but apparently for BoAs comeback she did or ll make a teaser/advertisement (?) With sehoon from exo. They ll play like couple.
Its good to start hearing some BoAs activities ha

Unfortunately it has nothing to do with BoA's comeback. It was just talking about how BoA and Sehun's ONLY ONE couple dance made them look like a real couple. And how fans were excited to see BoA's movie BIG MATCH.

well it kind of surprising that she debut at number 4.

maybe the first day figure should hover between 4-5k.

 

anyway, anyone order who's back from cdjapan? whats the situation there? did the shipment for your order been delayed due to stock issue?

seems like hmv japan is unable to cope with the order. the cd+dvd version has been pending for stock arrival 01 September 2014 whereas the cd version was in stock and is due to be release on 03 September 2014.

I ordered from CDJapan and my shipment of my two copies are on the way! They actually shipped my orders this past Sunday!! No problems, there!

I should receive it soon because I did the 4-12 day shipment!

for a price of 4100yen i expect it to be at least 15 songs, usually a cd+dvd edition is about 3800yen  nevermind it is already tax included -.-

and looking at the tracklist so far it seems to be a best of including songs that are already 4years old lol.

dont know what to think yet i just hope it has a lot of new material

 

I wonder if any of the B-sides such as "Close to Me" or "Call My Name" will be included in this album... Cause she already has 8 single tracks on this album and she will need to include new ones. 

Rino is overhyped as a choreographer TBH. None of her choreographies for BoA have really impressed me. They've all been good, but not GREAT. 

People just like her cause she makes SNSD step out of their cutesy comfort zone. 

 

BoA is entitled to her opinion, but I think it's a little sad that she always wants SNSD-like dance moves and talks about being a member of SNSD. BoA at her best is lightyears ahead of SNSD and most Asian female girl and solo artists. 

BoA never said that she wanted to be in SNSD. She mentioned that SNSD was luckier than BoA especially during her training days. BoA did say that she wanted to NOT BE ALONE and for her training days to be more like SNSD where she had friends to hangout, dorm together and be in a group where you are supported by 8 other members. The misunderstanding was probably due to translation error.

And for her choreography, she said she wanted to do something more feminine like SNSD, something more glamorous like the leg move for Genie. But I do also agree that BoA is entitled to her own opinion.

This is her singing/dancing career, NOT OURS!

I only remember 1 from THE FACE area. It must be season 2 then.

What's about season 1? Anyone remember?

Season 1 was THE FACE. I believe season 2 was BEST & USA

Someone correct me if I got it wrong!!

Well its obviously not correct because Shout it Out was already released on the 5th!

I was gonna pre-order on CDJapan but CD ver and CD + DVD [Ver. B]'s first press are already sold out. I will still buy her single regardless.

AND her mv count on youtube is already at 430,000 views in the past two days which means that she can probably hit a million views if more people watch it over the next few days. 

I can already predict that she will have somewhat decent sales compared to her past singles. 

I'll take pictures of the CD + DVD when I get my camera back

I wish I can work for her PR or marketing sales team!!

I would make sure she gets good sales and #1 on the charts

No problem. I just saw it and did a very quick translation. It took me like 2-3 minutes!

I'll try my best to be more active on BoAJjang

From my understanding of Japanese:

Tell me your story
I want to hear
It doesn't have to be cool/interesting

Just wanna get your message now, message now
So precious
For the messages that won't run away/disappear
Put it on Repeat
For I am up and down
My tears will disappear
Therefore for the messages,
Believe its for real

That is all to it.
My weather will change
I'm waiting for you
Today as well as tomorrow.
