Correct Tags for BoA albums?

zyoeru · #1 13th December 2009, 01:11 AM

Can someone post the correct tags for BoA's album SHINE WE ARE?

Also if someone could post the credits for all of her albums, I've tried and failed to add that info...
Like...if the name is Korean have it in hangul, and if the name is Japanese have it in kanji and if the name is Western have it in roman letters.

Thanks~!

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.

^well I think for the jpopstop info, whenever you see the orginal korean in the tracklist...you should use that instead of the translated english...

just as a given.

The BoA albums I own have got the Korean title with the English translation in brackets next to it in the tracklisting.
