JAM.

BoA always delivers jams, even when she doesn't.

Oh, that's nice. Going in too many directions but definitively a nice dance track
I wanna see more of that choreo!

For a second, while the page was loading she looked like SNSD's Tiffany. Been a while since I got into a BoA jam; looking forward to the full release.

I can see Tiffany-with-stronger-features in that full color pic in the collage, yeah.
Song is a little bit all-over like the usual SM-dance-track sound for the last few years, but it's a solid jam. She is still one of the strongest dancers I've seen.

I LOVEEEEEEEEE the dancing. It's fluid and wonderful. I really love her look, and the song will grow on me.

Mostly, I'm glad that I'm getting something next month. Sadly, it's in Japan... and Avex has not done right by BoA in terms of promotional oomph for at least five years. Queen of Hallyu, an artist who isn't actually viewed as a 'Korean artist' first, etc. She deserves so much better.

I also dislike the 'short' music videos. I want full length videos, god damn it.

Avex should really hire a new graphic design team because their promos for BoA always follows the nice photo bad type formula and it's been this way since... Sparkling?? Like ever since BoA's start of ~decline~ in the Oricon charts.

Also the studio dance scenes made me think of Make a Secret a little!! I always love BoA's JP songs but I always hate the cd jackets, no matter how nice the photos are lol

I didn't see the BoA/Luna comparisons, but the top right photo, I see it now. That hair color looks lovely on her.

she looks gorgeous here. i felt like something had seemed kind of off about her for a while, but as someone above mentioned, i think it's that for the first time in a long time, she looks genuinely happy.

also, i know she's been ~older and ~mature for a long while now, but this is one of the first videos i've seen where i really thought she carried off the mature (as opposed to young and cute) look so well.

She's always hitting it hard with the choreo. Always!

Don't really care much for the song though, unfortunately. Lyrics are kind of lame.
