BoA's travels April 2011

BoA has been all over the place lately: she's been in America, Canada, and is soon to be in Japan.  Only 24, BoA is at the prime of her life right now, so it's only natural that she would be visiting all these new places.  Through Twitter, BoA shows off her English skills (she has a English tutor online) and frequently posts pictures of what she's been doing lately (see under cut).

But is there a reason to why BoA has been traveling so much?

BoA is filming a film called COBU that will star her and Derek Hough (American dancer from DWTS). It will be BoA's Hollywood debut.  And according to the previews of COBU, there is meaning behind BoA's picture posts.   

MORE INVESTIGATION UNDER THE CUT

 BoA posed with taiko drums on Twitter; it appears that taiko drums will be used in COBU:

BoA's English lessons: to prepare for her Hollywood debut.

"Vacationing" in Canada and U.S.: filming locations for COBU.

This has nothing to do with her debut. :D.

Or this.

Hopefully BoA will be successful in her Hollywood debut, we wish her the best! 

BoA poses with a 7-foot bodyguard

BoA went clubbing tonight and guess what she found? A 7-foot bodyguard of course! BoA, who stands at 5 foot 4 inches, was very impressed by the height of the bodyguard and wrote on her Twitter:
"Look at this bodyguard!! 7ft!! Huge!!!".  BoA was clubbing at Whisper Entertainment in LA. Hmm, if anyone finds her around LA, do tell.

October 2nd Music Core

Music Core was hosted by Son Dambi and Sangjin this week on October 2nd.  The most prominent performance on this Music Core was probably the return on BEAST on Music Core.  Their performance was excellent if I do say so myself:

MORE UNDER THE CUT:'

Trax performed their song "Oh My Goddess" (The MV features Seohyun, my favorite SNSD member). BoA performed her song "Copy and Paste" on Music Core as well.  BoA had her hair in a ponytail and had a black suit-like thing on.

Infinite performed their old song "Come Back Again"/"Dorawa"  on Music Core.  I missed Infinite and their dance style :(.  As well as hosting Music Core,  Son Dambi (right) performed her song "dB Rider" on Music Core.

Se7en fangirls would have loved this.  Se7en performed his hot single "I'm Going Crazy" on Music Core.  Yes, it was good, but why the turtleneck?

Boa Releases MV for Copy Paste

Boa released her "Copy Paste" MV. Very slick clean moves as usual :) I'm sure Kim Hyung Jun is very happy right now. Haha

August 29th Inkigayo

Annyeong haseyo! This week's Inkigayo featured FT Island's comeback song "Love Love Love" and Sistar's comeback song "Shady Girl."  Sistar's Bora fractured her thumb recently and had a pretty silver splint during the Inkigayo performance. It was very unfortunate because Sistar was just beginning to promote "Shady Girl."  Read more to see a heck of a lot of pictures :D.

Who is hosting this week's Inkigayo?  f(x)'s Sulli, 2AM's Jokwon, and CN Blue's Younghwa!  Jokwon and Younghwa are such goofballs :P.

T Island came back with "Love Love Love" Sarang sarang sarang.  It's great to hear bands like CN Blue and FT Island that play their own music.

Secret performed "Madonna."  This song is so catchy and upbeat.

GP Basic performed "Game."  Is it just me, or did they sound especially squeaky this week? I think they were caught up with the dancing that they kind of messed up the vocals.  I think it's hard for anyone to do a mix of the two.

"Digital Bounce" by Seven.  I cannot take this guy seriously right now; not after he harassed Taeyang earlier. I'm still laughing about it... xD  He was wearing some kind of goggle... Worker's goggles? Hmm... construction goggles?

Homme performed "I Ate Well." Is that right? I'm still not sure about the song name... They have really good vocals though :).

SHINee performed "Lucifer."  I still love Jonghyun, and he will be my new hyung.

Taeyang performed "I'll Be There." Great great performance.  I liked the choreography and the execution of the dance moves.  Too bad Seven wasn't there.

BoA performed "Hurricane Venus."  She was wearing some kind of purple suit... Martian suit, perhaps? I'm not sure, but it was very purple and tight.  Oh BoA, we love your wide range of wardrobe surprises. What will you wear next?

When And Where Wednesday: SMTown Concert

Annyeong haseyo! The West Coast is going to be shaken up by the SM concert in LA on September 4th.  Groups such as Super Junior and SNSD will make it to the concert along with solo artist BoA.  The concert will be held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California.  Most K-pop related events happen here because of the Korean Town located in LA.

I can't believe there isn't more activity in the San Francisco Bay Area since I'm pretty sure we have a fair amount of Korean people here as well.  We should fit a Korea Town in San Francisco somewhere... There are some Korean stores around in the city; we'd just have to officially call it a Korea Town xD.  Then we would have more K-pop activity!

Music Mondays: August 2nd

Style Sunday: BoA Style

Don't you think every time you see BoA, there's something different about her...? LoLz it's her style, and it's pretty amazing.  When I think BoA, I think creative, imaginative, special, new, and... funny ;). Even though I don't understand what she's wearing sometimes, it just means her outfit is extremely special that day. :O Any suggestions for Style Sunday? Leave a comment below!
