October 24, 2020, marked the second anniversary of BoA’s 9th studio album, ‘WOMAN.’ The album symbolizes the idols transition from the girl on top to her identity as a woman. With a strong and powerful image, the 20-year-veteran showcases the attitude and grace of being a woman in her 30s and breaking societal definitions of beauty and age. Once again, taking control of her career, BoA is credited as writer, composer, and arranger of six out the ten tracks. 

Here are a few reasons why WOMAN remains iconic and why you should listen.

1. The clicking heels and incredible upside-down walk.

2. The jaw-dropping photos.

3. Empowering lyrics.

Just cuz you know something, doesn’t mean you know everything (y’all no no)
We have our own expressions and movements (I’ve got it)
There aren’t two of me inside (I know it)
There’s no second person
Feels good to be a woman

Hey yeah yeah yeah
No comparing
I shine just as I am, I’m beautiful enough
To be a woman
Hey yeah yeah yeah
In a stylish and modern picture
I’m enjoying this adventure
A true woman
