(This special was aired in JFN Tsuki-ichi Musik slot.)

BoA starts the show by recapping what she has done in the past 7 years, followed by her new album introduction, and Q/A from fans.

"I laughed listening to BIBW BGM again in 7 years."

"This 8th album contains a lot of singles. It's a very high quality album consiting of various genres: pop, ballad, dance, R&B, EDM. It can be enjoyed with various moods."

Commentary of each track in WHO'S BACK
1. FIRST TIME - The MV is documentary style showing recording session of the song and what we do during breaks. There's scene of me making quesdilla in the MV too. I hope it will be more fun listening to the song after watching the MV.

[translation] 140828 - NACK5 monaka (radio)

BoA in NACK5 monaka

The show host, Ikebe Ai, is very impressed by BoA's no make-up face and her beautiful hair.

B(for BoA): From now on, I should wear make up more. Everybody keeps asking me "No Makeup?" LOL

A(for Ai): It's very rare for women to be able to walk on the street without make-up. 

B: I don't get to walk on streets much anyway plus I've been rehearsing a lot lately. Sweating while having make-up on is not good for the skin.

Ai reads out long profile of BoA then they talk about the new album WHO'S BACK.

B: When I got an email from the producer asking for my opinion on the title "WHO'S BACK", I thought it sounds strong and impactful suitable for the album.

B: Lately, I've participated more in song and album production, be it song selection or other stuff. This way, my affection for the song and album grows bigger.

A: What's the song you love most in the album?

B: Only One since it's a self composed/written song and including in Korea, I've been singing it for one whole year. 

Masayume Chasing promotion

[translation] 140802 SAPPORO BEER "OTOAJITO"

BoA and Chris (the host) drink beer, munch on Bagna Cauda, and talk about music and movie.

Chris debates with himself whether he should call her BoA-chan or BoA-san. He seems comfortable with her and even speaks informally to her.

B:So we do really drink here (the idea of drinking alcohol on shows must have sounded weird to her). The veggie looks expensive.

*talk about BoA's music influence*

B: One day, my brother let me listen to MJ, Boyz II Men, and Mariah Carey and play MJ's music vdos. I was impressed.

C: Moonwalk?

B: MJ didn't do moonwalk in the MV. He did it on Motown Anniversary stage.

*plays Billie Jean*

B: So I started looking at his old works and stuffs.
