BoA’s Nylon Korea magazine interview
EuseneLee on Monday, September 14, 2009 2:00PM

BoA recently had an interview with Nylon magazine again. She talks about her experience in LA, and some basic personal questions like the surveys you get on Facebook.

What song is the most played on your iPod lately?
‘N Sync’s “Selfish”. For some reason, I’ve been enjoying quiet ballads nowadays. Perhaps it’s because I listen to solely dance music during practice.

What did you do yesterday?
Attend a recording meeting for my new upcoming Japanese single.

What is the first thing you do when you wake up?
Drink water.

When you brush your teeth, is there any tune that you hum to?
I’m concentrated on brushing my teeth so I don’t hum.

What book are you reading these days?
To be honest, I haven’t been able to read many books lately. The most recent thing I read was the souvenir pamphlet on the plane?

How do you usually answer to friends who ask, ‘How are you doing?’
“Yes. My life is not any different from others.”

What kind of news do you like best?
Any news regarding the currency. I suppose it’s because I’m living overseas now. Haha.

Who is your favorite movie character?
Joker from The Dark Knight!

Are there any items you must absolutely keep in your room?
My cellphone charger and the side table next to my bed. The reason for the latter being so I can place my cellphone on top of it.

If a friend comes to visit you in L.A., where is the first place you would take him/her?
Melrose Avenue. There are many, beautiful multi-shops there.

Which restaurants do you like to dine at in LA?
Japanese restaurants ‘Gonpachi’ in La Cienega Boulevard and ‘Sushi Roku’ in 3rd Street, Kings Road Cafe in Beverly Boulevard, and the Korean diners at Koreatown. I also frequently visit game restaurants ‘Dave and Busters’ and ‘Lucky Strike’, where I can drink beer and go bowling.

If you could appear on TV, what role of which program would you like to do?
Go Eun Chan from the Coffee Prince drama. For some reason, I think I would cross-dress well.

What is the best memory you have of this week?
When it rained. After seeing sunshine everyday, the rain was refreshing.

What is an advantageous benefit of living in the 21st century?
The production of hybrid cars. They’re quiet and fuel-efficient.

What is something you would feel sad leaving without?
My cellphone.

What is something you are anticipating right now?
I wish winter would come soon. I bought a new leather jacket that I want to wear.

Since I live in LA, I know most of these places. Let me say this, BoA has good taste. She seems like one of the stars in those reality MTV shows hanging out in the popular streets of Los Angeles.

BoA is getting ready to release her repackaged deluxe album and her Japanese single Bump Bump. I am sad that she isn’t doing more activities in the United States for now. Let’s all hope her album will rock and will be successful in the US!

The first and last pics are so fug. The other ones are gorgeous.

lol the last thing she read was the pamphlet~

she looks so cute in the nylon scans! <3

Oo yesasia has already posted that BoA deluxe is already available before the 22nd? I'm going to put my order in now.

this is really random but.. boa doesn't want to go back to korea because she doesn't make really make money in korea right? i mean the SM contracts and stuff.

^Yeah well...she's not gonna get any success in the U.S either....and its not like Japan wants her either....:( Korea seems like her best bet. Give the motherland another shot...

Awww, that doggie is so cute! :D

BoA supports SM Entertainment, picks f(x) Amber
EuseneLee on Wednesday, September 16, 2009 5:00PM

BoA will be performing a particular song in her upcoming Japan tour dates that will require the help of a rapper. The song is “Crazy About.” However, the song’s original rapper will not be available for the concert. Who can BoA rely on?

Another SM artist! An artist lots of people are “crazy about,” specially. She chose f(x)’s Amber to rap the English section. This will benefit everyone. Amber is Asian so it would be more comfortable for BoA and the Japanese fans. In addition, Amber is part of SM and this will provide good publicity for f(x). Everyone in SM Entertainment thrives in this decision. No wonder SM Entertainment is so popular and big. In addition, the concert will be held in Tokyo on Oct. 10.

I remember seeing a video of SNSD being fans when they performed with BoA near their ending song for the SM Town Concert. I bet Amber is jumping up and down, and feeling nervous simultaneously. I know for a fact that both of them will do really well.

Yay yesasia shipped my BoA Deluxe. <3

wow. im not getting my copy until quite a while after the release :dead
