BoA-fan here! õ//

Maaaan.. this girl is soooooo lovable! and sooo hard-working.
The album is AMAZING! I didn’t get soo excited while listening to one of her albums in a looong time. All the songs are absolutely awesome! XD

I really, really, really hope she succeeds!

And thanx Rap-Up for all the support you’re giving to her! *–*v

I’ve just listened to her album, it’s really, really good. Unfortunately, as this video shows, her English is still not that good, but hopefully she’ll improve. It must be very hard for her, learning both Japanese and English, and singing in 3 very different languages!

The preview of “I did it for love” music video looks amazing and I hope people take notice of her.

Go, BoA!!

Is BoA back in the US? I thought she was still in Japan since she just performed at DCT’s concert a few days ago. BoA’s English is not as good in the video clip because she just came back from Japan and still haven’t adjusted to speaking English. A few weeks ago when BoA came back to Japan from the US, I noticed that she had trouble speaking Japanese as well- even though she’s fluent in Japanese. I think this is really normal for people speaking multiple languages. My BoA’s CD will come a few days, I can’t wait. Good luck in the US BoA!!

Her English still needs a lot of work but she keeps getting better and better! <3

I hope “I Did It For Love” becomes a big hit! It’s a very catchy piece of hers!

We from Brazil love you BoA!

Her english is awesome for someone who’s been learning it for only one year. I challenge any of the haters to learn korean in a year and have an equivalent level of her english level. Keep in mind that the grammar structure and alphabet of her mother tongue are totally different. I’m very impressed. I don’t know her music, besides her us singles, but just to see how hardworking she is, I will get to know this artist’s music and universe. I hope she takes over, it’s about time an asian artist gets mainstream respect in music.
