Because of that she stopped all the Atlantis Princess promos and started singing Tree instead, wearing yellow accessories (the mourning color in Korea), so she associates his death with the album

More recently she said she considers herself being too old to perform Atlantis Princess.

It's interesting to note that she never includes the song in her setlist, even though it's one of her most famous songs in Korea

OMG! No words could fully express how excited I am for "Lookbook". Not only is it a new Japanese single from BoA...but it's EDM too?! Way too excited, now. When's December, again?!

Truth.

However. I'm happy to hear about the new single! I want snippets!!! xD

I just watched her 'Here I Am' live concert and it's been so long since I watched something of hers that I forgot just how a.m.a.z.i.n.g. she is live. That girl is queen. No matter what.

YAY! Please blow me away with your new EDM song!

The self cover is kind of laughable, but I'll still check it out. Who knows!

I'm pretty sure Merikuri is ONE OF the most loved xmas songs in Japan, so it makes sense for her to flog it when she can. If you've ever visited Japan I think you'll agree it's a very consumerist market.

メリクリ ~ver. 2015~ would be more acceptable than Meri Kuri (Self-Cover)

Two new tracks is enough for me, she can add a self-cover and it's smart marketing IMO.
