Actually, I don't think it's SM's fault. I bet the process of getting her CD into stores is much the same of getting your book into a bookstore. The store has to place the order to get the artist's CDs on the shelf. If the store doesn't place an order then obviously they're not going to stock the CD. I'm guessing that since BoA's an unknown artist that no one's heard of there's no incentive for the store to have her CD in stock.

If people were to place orders for her CD, then that would get them to stock and let them know there's actually interest for that artist.

Anyway, check it out here!

Don't forget that the album is being distributed by Arsenal...something... I forget their exact name, but they're an independent label, so that fact might also be why it's so hard to find BoA's album: maybe they don't have the ability to manufacture that many copies per shipment?

do you not watch any of BoA's english interviews or something? she always sounds like that. but i understand what she's trying to say. i agree with the people who said BoA needs to spend more time here, get a better grasp at english and then release another album

It's not that bad. She sounds better than me at least. LOL.
Personally, I don't really care if her English gets better. It's time to go back to Korea now!

Anyway, I love how BoA always makes a few silly jokes in her interviews.

Is the full "I Did It For Love" MV released yet?

i think boa's engrish is cute tbh. she is working on being fluent in three (maybe more) languages, cut the girl some slack? most people can't even balance two (i have trouble myself sometimes )

bradlee thanks for posting the interview. you're lucky you got to talk to boa! i know how nervous you must have been but you did a good job!

my favorite engrish BoA quotes:

"i never tried to be a sexy, but if you guys think about that i'm sexy, thank you!!"
"yeah i'm watching gossip girl.. why you guys laugh? is it funny??"
"when my korean fans notice i'm coming to america, they support me so hard, and after i saw that they were supporting, i got so many confidence"
"i really don't like some cheesy guy or greasy like that"
"this is my cell phone, but nobody call me! it's okay.. whatever."
"my favorite drink is vitamin water.. they have so many color"

I, I, I, I did it did it did it for love (4x)

(I know that I did you wrong)
Please forgive me, baby girl, I'm sorry
(You know that you did me wrong)
Why you crying, baby girl, I'm sorry
(I know that I did you wrong)
Heaven knows I don't mean to hurt nobody
(You know that you did me wrong)
Let me take this time to tell you I'm sorry

Loving you is causing me to change
And it hurts so bad, it don't feel the same
And now my friends are asking me
"What did I do?"
Im done hurtin' myself, over loving you
Oh I

I, I, I, I did it did it did it for love (4x)

I had some injunctions baby
But I'm done hurtin' you
Wanna make it up to you

Didn't you see in it my heart?
I can't trust it anymore

I, I, I, I, I, .... want to make it up to you (2x)

Didn't you see it in my heart?
I can't trust it anymore

I I I I did it did it did it for love
Did it did it for love

BoA is too cute! She's really down-to-earth in her interviews!
