They must be joking.
SM Entertainment wants the blogs that posted up Boa’s leaked track, “I did it for love” taken down. The song was supposed to be released on February 18th on 5 U.S. based sites, including Myspace, and Facebook, but since it’s everywhere, their plans for promotion has been thwarted. If anything, the “early” distribution has promoted BoA’s music.
Listen to the 1:30 preview of BoA’s “I did it for love” here (in Korean)
Heads up, the music video for “I did it for love” will be released in early March.
SM Entertainment is investigating into how the track was leaked.
FIRST
wonk wonk*
third
song sucks anyway
lols, yea its not sucha great song… no offence to any1 who actually likes it…
Geez, SM. Any publicity now is good publicity.
Songs get leaked before their official release date all the time, I’m surprised they didn’t anticipate something like this to happen to begin with.
you meant thwarted?
I wonder why SM wants to take it down. The leak was good publicity for BoA~ it got people excited about her album. Now people are anticipating to hear the full song, I don’t think the leak did any harm.
How pathetic!!
Don’t they know that this is the oldest trick on the booke?
1349boafan is right…
The leak has probably done more harm than good. I mean, it was the song leak that’s gotten me excited for her debut…
^I mean more good than harm. Typo. sorry
At first glance, I thought BoA was Ahyoomee.
It’s a good publicity but at the same time, it allow fans to download it. I mean when I searched for Eat You Up, I found a bunch of blogs that let us fans to download it.
maybe SM is juz paranoid since they are in the US market and to show they had nothing to do with the leak as a stunt for publicity?
Sounds like a nice little publicity stunt, and I bet they’ll still release it.
Really, though, MySpace would gobble this song down whole…I bet it can work.
Father LSM and SM really need to stfu, she’s a newbie artists and this girl is going to need to all the publicity that she can get, sorry most people here aren’t going to give a crap if she is hella famous in Asia so they need to shut up and get over it!
this is another reason why I’m not supporting her I freaking hate LSM for reals! He pays people to party and promote her but gets mad when her track leaks and he wants to raise hell over it, he needs to shut up!
oh she got her eyes redone~ her nose also looks different.
Awww, i feel bad for BoA..
but how did it leak out?
that is skills xD
LOL she sounded like a ROBOT and Sean Garret sung
like half the song w/o digitalizing his voice…can you really call that singing or her song???
ahhh COME ON everyone !! the all AMERICAN DEBUT its just a trick to make her comeback stronger in ASIA, it became quite obvious after they annouced the release of her US album(SM entertaiment) with her Japanese BEST of(AVEX TRAX).
I think her korean team just team up with her japaanese staff and created a buzz around that american debut
wow..
that’s dumb?
its not that good anyways…;;;
This song sounds a little deadpan…I mean BoA’s voice sounded monotonous most of the clip (at least to me). It isn’t all that good, but neither can I say it’s really bad.
Maybe Sean Garret leaked it. He has the right, as he wrote the lyrics, composed the music, and produced it.
very cute, have a glance shortly
It’s understandable why SM Entertainment wants the blogs taken down because of a leaked song, copyright music must be respected and understood. Remember Kevin Cogill who got arrested for leaking 9 Guns N’ Roses songs to his blog? Leaking copyright music is illegal. Try to understand that please.
Kev

agreed.
but i don’t know how SM can stop this now that its leaked everywhere D:
Love Boa’s pic up there btw
they should anticipaded this “leak” for happening or have a plan anticipaded as well, now you know this things.
Ah… leaks happen, and it’s not exactly like they can control it. They should learn to do it the American way: sue the jerks and be done with it.
No guessing what the bloggers defense will be “I did it for…”
i know rite, it promoted their song so much, so i dont see why their so ” NYAH NYAH NHYA” about…
SM should take SNSD down, instead.
booo like i said the song sucks either way.
the girl must want known a what a way to do other than selling you ass at least she doing it in a positive way!
by the way least her family can be proud!
Not the best way to promote. By the way, my book, the White House Mafia, was only supossed to be at Target but now it is everywhere and that is a shame because I only wanted it to sell at target.

Blah blah who cares!!! SM entertainment is FULL OF BS man
ps.
she totally done some PS on her face
why does everyone keep denying it????
HWAH!! BOA is so beautiful here!
Hello POPSEOUL!
vitamins.
most songs get leaks out anyway so why make a big fuss?
i don’t get lsm at all, instead of suing blogs why don’t he use that money to promote the grace? or jang ri in?
lsm must be on crack
seriously.
SM should thank their lucky stars that anyone is interested enough in boring Boa to actually “leak” any of her bland songs! These blogs are the only ones out here who’s giving any kind of attention to her anyway, major music sites, mags, tv, radio sure aren’t.
Ehhh…
Wow their marketing is truly clueless. More attention, the better the response after the debut. And if the song is good the more people will want to but it …external influences
Surprisingly,I think this is prettiest pic of Boa, xdd…..
Her face look shorter than other pics
I miss BoA
Lol smtown trying to take down all blogs?? that’s funny cause it’s almost impossible. even hollywood stars today don’t make a big fuss and demand blogs taken down. Leesooman should be flattered but then again, yeah when people post up stuff like that, their company does lose money.
