Superstar BoA is continuing her efforts in Japan. The PV's for 'Kissing You' & 'Sparkling' (see videos below) were released recently. This on the heels of her 26th Japanese single album titled 'Vivid', due to be released on June 4th. The first track from 'Vivid' titled 'Kissing You' will be the theme song for Japanese Drama '7 Female Lawyers'. The second track 'Sparkling' will be used for a Commercial. There is also a third track on the album titled 'Joyful Smile'. Like most things on the internet, 'Vivid' has been already leaked and is being downloaded through various outlets.

BoA's next scheduled performance will be on popular Japanese show, Hey Hey Hey (Heyx3) on May 18th.

Personally I prefer "Sparkling" over "Kissing You". I haven't heard "Joyful Smile", but it seems to be the favorite of most people who downloaded the leaked album. Truthfully speaking, I would prefer BoA to come out with some music I can dance to, not fall asleep to. Regardless, whatever she does - it's going to be a success in Japan.

Wth, am I the only one who likes freaking Kissing You more? Sparkling took some time to get used to. I like Joyous Smile more smile

These two PVs (promotional videos = MV in Japan) have to be the trippiest videos BoA has ever released… probably because they are so JAPANESE!  It’s almost a month too early and already it’s been leaked. Good sign that she’s still loved and bad sign because more downloads LOL I might be subbing KISSING YOU since I did a rough translation of it… oh yeah baby.

she still needs to come back to Korea T_T

P.S.  for anyone who wants to comment on how hideous her clothes are in KISSING YOU, you can’t really comment unless you’re into Japanese fashion. It’s the “in” thing right now to be weird such things. Which is the reason why the sing cover for VIVID has weird clothes too. they wanted to go back 80s style..don’t know why.

o_O BoA looked weird in the beginning of Sparkling PV.

well the songs are good..but then haven’t you noticed that those eggs in kissing you MV were so big and her legs were so skinny? does she still eat? and the Kissing you MV is a little childlike but cute…
well SLAVE i think kissing you is better than SPARKLING too.

but the MV of sparkling is better..

Is SM running out of titles?
Now there’s ‘Kissing You’ by SNSD and ‘Kissing You’ by BoA.

The song sounds nice though ^^

Kissing you PV is cute and sweet. But I have to say that I dislike her hairstyle. It’s too tight.
Sparkling PV’s concept is good. The mic looks freaky with a mouth and arms. LOL

The songs are not appealing to me, maybe by listening more I will start to like them…

Bluecat, I can’t SPEAK it (well at least not much anymore)… but I can read it (not all, I still need my tablet) and understand audios/videos.

i love her outfit in the “kissing you” video!  i’m not really that into boa and definitely not her japanese music...i think she sounds too nasal-y.  but i do like these two songs.

I like Sparkling MV alot better than the Kissing You MV.
in the whole Vivid single though, i thought Joyful Smile was the best, then Sparkling, and last place is Kissing You. Kissing You was kind of boring to me. It wasn’t bad just not that great. Joyful Smile made me, well, smile! ahahaha

she messed up in the dance at the end of sparkling and quickly corrected it. hahaha.

I really love the concept of the Kissing You MV.
I personally like the song Kissing You better than Sparkling.

I personally love her voice very much.
This Single is freaking awesome!
Why do ppl even complain about some clothing? I mean, come on man. She is obvoiusly not limited in something like clothing, she’s a star. Maybe the clothes suits the mood of the video. Now stop complaining.

shes so cute! but i want her to return to the korean scene. If you guys havnt noticed, but she’s becoming too much of a japanese :( she sings well in both languages. dont get me wrong i love jap music and culture. but i think she shines more when singing korean!
