How accurate do you want the tags?

I'm asking because both of those links don't really represent the track titles as they actually appear on the back of the album.

The problem with the JPopstop info is that they seem to assume the English title is an official translation of the Korean but this isn't always the case. In some cases the Korean has a different meaning while the English is supplementary to that, so in those cases, if you just go with the English, you're missing some of the intended meaning. Another nitpick is that they put the English text before the Korean Hangul when, for some tracks, it's actually the other way around.

Also, the maniadb entry doesn't take into account the formatting of the titles in regards to capitalizations and such (i.e. "Searching for Truth" vs. "Searching For Truth"). Although, for Korean releases, the formatting of a title (album or track) isn't always that strict as they sometimes vary between releases.

However, if you still want things to be accurate to the way they're represented on the back of the album, I can help you out since I have all of BoA's albums.
