[translation] 150520 Park SoHyun's Love Game radio

Can you believe it? Only 1 radio interview for KML promotion. >_<
Look at this post and count how many she did for Only One.

Warning: translation might contain mistakes LOL

BoA greeted audience with a blowing kiss.
DJ: so cute
BoA: I can be cute towards women only. My friends say I'm a proof that man&woman can be friends. LOL
DJ: BoA has everything but no boyfriend. How could this be? But I'm sure her fans will gladly become her bf.

DJ went on to praise the album and wondered why KML was picked as a title song while other album songs are more public friendly.
BoA: If I went with a public friendly song, it'd be too predictable. But I do have Who Are You pre-release for public friendly song. KML is a genre that I wanna try and it's more suitable for performing.

BoA: Before album release, I've been really worried because it's the first time I produced all the songs and I don't know if others would like the songs that I like or not. I couldn't even sleep.

BoA: But the feedback is very good so far. If I knew the feedback would be this good, I would have made it a monthly release. Releasing a song a month. LOL

DJ: How do you feel having Who Are You competing as no.1 candidate in music show instead of KML?
BoA: Well, KML maybe too hard of a genre for people but they are all my babies so I'm happy in a strange kind of way. LOL
Being no.1 certainly is important but I'd like it if people can listen from the first track to the 12th track.
Charting is important but for now, I've worked hard for this album so I wish it could become a good memory or a present for listeners. I wish many people can listen to it. I'd like to thank the management and those who helped working on the album.

DJ: KML is addicting. It's a song to listen to at night.
BoA: When I first heard the track, "come and kiss my lips" automatically popped up in my head. I asked for the track, went home, made the melody & demo and people like what they hear when I let them listen to my demo.
There're many candidates for the title song. There was this idea to make them all title tracks but it'd be too divided so KML was picked.
Actually for this song, I don't know where the chorus is. I asked my fans and they all gave different answers. When I was writing KML, instead of verse A B chorus like usual songwriting, I wrote it as part A B C D. It also underwent mixing/mastering for 26 times!

They briefly talked about BoA love for gag show and how she did it in front of fans during music show pre-recording. BoA did it here again when the DJ kept asking her to do it.

DJ: Please smile/laugh more. You look very pretty when you do so.

DJ: Why did you choose fox, green light, and smash to perform on music shows together with KML?
BoA: They were title track candidates. I think the most public friendly tracks are fox and green light. I wanna show a stage with more girly, feminine side of me.

BoA and Gaeko recorded Who Are You separately. BoA thanked gaeko for making the song more refined. About appearing only briefly in the MV, BoA said she wanted people to focus on the music so they went with story concept where she only appeared as a cameo.

Talking about her title (not exactly, the words the media use to describe her), BoA said since she's been called Star of Asia so long, she's comfortable with it the most (and also joked that it didn't mean much to her now since it's overused)

Talking about Smash, BoA said her dancers had it tough and that the song was made in summer and has funky sound with guitar+bass that she likes so much.

BoA said she wanted to do variety shows, especially outdoor ones but no offer to her. LOL

Speaking of Running Man, it was too cold when they were filming. She's confident she can do better in current weather.

In preparing for her comeback, BoA studied what other artists were doing
and saw Eddie Kim on TV and liked his voice so much. She thanked Eddie for making the song sweeter.

DJ: Eddie is very good at making music and playing acoustic guitar.
BoA: I really like guys who can play guitar well.

BoA said she wanna meet Eddie (they recorded Double Jack separately). DJ said BoA and Eddie should collaborate again. Maybe an acoustic song.

DJ: If you have a bf, what u wanna do?
BoA: Nothing in particular. I just want a person who can communicate well with me, who I'm comfortable with, and will take my side.
DJ: Didn't you say you like Yoo Ah In before? What about now?
BoA: When you watch TV these days, don't u think there are so many handsome people?


DJ personally likes Home very much, said it was really touching and even moved her to tears
BoA: It's a song that vocalist can get praise from. As I faced difficult times working on this album, the lyrics in this song are what I want to hear myself.

DJ thanked BoA for writing Home lyrics. :)

BoA said here that concert will be held some time in the future.

Clockwork
DJ thought this would be the title track
(noshadow31: I don't understand this. Did she get to listen to the album before title track was decided? Is she that close with BoA?)

BoA: The elements of contrabass, strings, and electric violin in this song. I wanted to make a mysterious feeling song.

DJ: Won't u perform this on stage?
BoA: It was supposed to be a single cut but it just ended up being an album song. (BoA sounds frustrated here. I kinda doubt her authority as a producer for this album. SM can force her, the producer, to do anything or what?)

BoA: I can't do ballroom dance and this song requires a couple dance. Initially I named this song "taeyeop inhyung (wind-up doll)" but SM wanted all track titles in English and I was forced to change the title to Clockwork. The idea is a wind up doll moving slower and slower and asks another doll who she's in love with to wind up her key so that she can continue dancing with him.

DJ: pls make MV for it! Talking about MV, Sehun and Taemin starring in your MVs was whose decision?

BoA: For Taemin, since he's my only one couple dance partner who matched me well and Disturbance followed Only One in (Here I AM) concert so Taemin would be a good choice. For Sehun, it's the MV director who decided.

DJ: Who in SM would be good as a tango dance partner for Clockwork.
BoA: For ballroom dance, I think it'd be nice to have a professional dancer who can lead me. I got to dance with a pro ballroom dancer in MYM movie and it was amazing how he twirled me.

Blah
BoA: Since I work as an entertainer from a young age, I've heard a lot of hurtful words. Non entertainers also experience this kind of thing. Reckless words can hurt people so I wanted to make a song talking about this problem. I purposely made the melody happy in contrary to the message.


Skipping the last part where the DJ read messages from fans as I don't understand much. :P
