Q. You release your new album after a long hiatus, while it is notable that you wrote all the tracks in the album. BoA: Yeah, the album is more meaningful than any other albums I released. I'm so nervous and just the thought of the album makes my heart flutter. I've worked on the album for more than a year.
Q. Before releasing the album, your new song 'Who Are You' was pre-released. It seems that many people like the song. How do you feel? BoA: Actually, I never expected. I was bemused with such a good result. I think it's thanks to Gaeko who was featured in the song as a rapper. I wanted to show a variety of performance through different kinds of music in the album.
Q. Eddy Kim is featured in your song 'Double Jack'. Are you close with him? BoA: No, not at all. Actually, I've never met him. I tried to visit the recording studio when he was recording the song, but I couldn't due to tight schedules. I want to meet him later. I think his voice is very sweet.
Q. Where do you get the inspiration for writing your songs? BoA: I'm inspired by many things. For example, before I wrote the song 'Green Light' which is included in the album, I watched the TV show 'Witch Hunt'. I really like the program. I watch it on Friday night and wrote the song on Saturday.
Q. I think your attachment to the album should be very strong because you wrote all the tracks. BoA: Yeah, that's right. I wrote about 20 songs for a year without any rest. I selected 12 songs out of them. The album has various music including up-tempo music, ballad, and acoustic music. And I wanted to write the lyrics about a realistic breakup. I worked really hard for the album, and I learned a lot from it.
Q. What made you decide to write all the songs in your new album? BoA: At our company meeting held in April 2014, I announced that I will release my new album which is full with my own songs in 2015. I just said so and regretted it later.(laugh) It was a big challenge for me and I feel really great about having completed the work successfully. And it was happy to become close with many composers through the process of making album.
Q. EXO's Sehun appeared on the music video of 'Who Are You'. Did you select him? BoA: No, director of the music video did. He thought that Sehun is the type of man all the women want.
Q. Let's talk about the title track 'Kiss My Lips'. BoA: I think I showed power performances when I sang 'Hurricane Venus' and 'Only One'. This time, I wanted to show some womanly things. Actually, I wanted to wear pretty high heels on stage. And I wanted to wear a skirt instead of baggy pants. I've never worn a skirt when I performed in Korea. So I wrote the womanly song.
Q. Do you think 'Kiss My Lips' will be able to make a good score on music charts? BoA: Unlike 'Who Are You', 'Kiss My Lips' is the song which is focused on its stage performance. I hope it will make a good score on music charts, but please just enjoy the stage performance.
Q. Did prepare for any special performance for 'Kiss My Lips'? BoA: Huge fans will appear on stage. That is the interesting point of the choreography.
Q. Are you going to produce other SM artists' songs too? BoA: I feel a little bit uncomfortable producing their albums because they are the singers of distinct individuality. Well, the company told me to write SM Rookies' song before. I think it is important for an album producer to help singers show off their talents on stage.
Q. It has been 15 years since you debuted. Will you hold any special event to celebrate your 15th anniversary?
BoA: Nothing is confirmed yet, but I think I have to do something including my concert. And I will try to reduce the interval between my albums. Next album can be released sooner than expected.
I’m sure you’re very curious about k-pop trainee’s daily schedule. Well, it differs from case to case, but let me explain about the general case. If you become a k-pop trainee, you should follow the daily schedule below. 8 a.m. : School attendance As most of k-pop trainees are students, they should go to school in the morning. They try not to skip breakfast if possible because it’s important for them to manage their health. At their school, they take classes just like the other ordinary students, but they usually listen to music during break time to make preparations for their weekly test. They sometimes write song lyrics, while there are also some passionate trainees who practice singing and dancing at their school. 5 p.m. : Go to practicing room After school is over, trainees go to their practicing rooms. The first thing they do when they arrive at their practicing rooms is give their cellphones and diaries to people who manage them. They get their cellphones back after the
According to the prosecution, a young k-pop female star G.NA has been called in to investigate on suspicion of having sex with a man of wealth in return for receiving about 30,000 USD in 2016. Of course, such allegations have yet to be confirmed, but it certainly was a shocking news for k-pop fans, while Cube Entertainment terminated its contract with G.NA due to the scandal even though the agency officially announced that the contract has already ended at the end of 2015. I can’t say she is guilty, but it’s true a few of Korean female entertainers prostitute themselves. They sometimes even go abroad and have sex with rich men to avoid legal punishment in Korea. You might say that you don't understand why some of Korean entertainers who seem to earn a lot of money prostitute themselves. Well, here are some reasons for it. First, everyone wants easy money. No one would say no to easy and big money, right? When I asked people in the Korean entertainment world about Korean ente
Have you watched “We Got Married”? As you know, the program is about male and female stars who entered their imaginary married life. Well, some of you may wonder if the couple's love for each other is real. Let's talk about the truth about “We Got Married.” Is WGM Scripted? Before filming the program, the production crew delivers scripts to the cast. However, the scripts of “We Got Married” are totally different from those of dramas or movies. The scripts of “We Got Married” do not have any detailed words. They just include general explanation of situation. For example, “It’s the day you move into your new apartment,” “It’s the day you introduce your wife to your friends,” etc. On the basis of the scripts, the cast prepares for clothes, accessories and more. And during filming the program, the production crew occasionally intervenes in the couple’s dating because the young cast who is unused to a real variety show such as SHINee's Taemin and APink's Naeun needs

Have you ever been curious about k-pop idols' microphones? Unless you are a professional, it’s difficult to know the details about the microphones. However, there’s a very simple way to make a guess at what kind of microphone your favorite idol star uses. Well, the way is to classify the microphones by their colors. Colors of microphones do not always mean everything, but like I said, you can at least make a guess at what kind of microphones those are. Flesh-Colored Microphone You might see the flesh-colored microphones frequently in various k-pop chart shows. Those are the basic microphones offered by the broadcasting company. People in the k-pop world usually call it "Band-Aid." The microphone is cheap, and it doesn't perform well. However, it doesn't matter because not a few incompetent idols depend on their AR and just pretend to sing live. Black Microphone The black microphone is not offered by the broadcasting company. If an idol group's
