Yeah that was a bit of a miscast but I don't think Japanese will mind too much as she is so well-known there. She's also a good friend of Crystal Kay. They actually did a collaboration together which was pretty epic in it's own right. BoA also has connections with Namie Amuro. Which is about as legendary as they come in the world of J-Pop!! She also sings in Chinese which I didn't even know. :b
oh plz guys..BoA character in this movie still KOREAN but born in Japan....just watch this movie u will know.....and she will speak 3 language : English, Korean and Japan...
As much as I love Kpop I'm here for Derek Hough. He's a great dancer...and while ge plot of the movie might not be the best I'm sure the dancing will be amazing! Can't wait!
As much as I love kpop I'm here for Derek Hough. He's an amazing dancer...the movie might not have the best plot but the dancing will surely be amazing! Cant Wait!
I really want to see this when it comes out on DVD!:) Honestly if Derek would've had BoA sing or dance with him on Dancing With the Stars to promote the movie, that probably would've sparked interest in it. I blame poor advertisement. I feel bad because the crew all worked so hard.
although its cliche, many people still love a good love story. im not going to compare this to any other dance movie bec each has its own different dance genre, there's hiphop, modern ballet, free style then there's tap dancing! woooow. it kinda feels different.
Yeah I totally agree, I cannot stand those movies in which they mixed up everything. Next time lets ask Jean Reno to play an American president just to see ^^
Rie Chan Thank you Rie, I am happy to hear that, she should definitely play a Korean, she doesn't look Japanese at all, I am glad they didn't make her play a Japanese
My Review: this movie is great and has a different take on romeo and juliet i give this movie 8.5/10, there was great actors/dancers in here Derek Hough great dancer from dancing with the satrs and then there is BoA a great k pop star and next we have Will Yun Lee who stared in red dawn and the wolvering and more but those is what i remember him from and last Wesley Jonathan who stared in roll bounce which was a great movie. The dancing in here was phenomenal, there was alittle hip hop, some contemporary and tap dancing, plus they added the drums which is a different thing you dont normally see in movies. The reason i gave it an 8.5 was the plot tho, if they did alittle different like at the end donny told nick he brought the sax but yet the whole movie we never knew he played it but they added that in there because if the sax part in the song which by the way is a great song choice which is called "now we know" by the outfits. So there was some small things here and there which could have been better but overall i loved it i would buy it and i would tell friends about it.
Reminds me of that one video Communitychannel did about dancing movies lol Only reason to watch would be if your a k-pop fan who wants to see their idol on the big screen. Unfortunately, BoA isn't really that popular compared to other k-pop idols anymore so I don't think fans could help her too much.
Keiko Katze Don't get me wrong here I think she is still smokin but it took her too long to get here. If she made this sort of movie a decade ago she would have been still alive in kpop world right now. Who knows she could have been a full time actress by now.
+dokkiro If she made this movie you mean when she was 16? Omg, kids don't act well and she didn't speak English so well probably a decade ago! And her main stuff is her singing career! And she's still alive in the jpop world so I don't know what you mean by her not being alive in the kpop world. May I ask where you live? I happen to live in tokyo.
That's exactly what I was going to say! Plus I'm sure terrible acting! But I love seeing Derek Hough dance and his choreography is amazing, so I'll still watch it.
I think so too. Just hearing the dialogue in this trailer just makes me cringe bc of the cheesiness. But they all look great and the dancing seems superb. I mean... It's not like step up had a great plot either.
Dance movies will probably all have the same feel but that's what I kind of like about them anyway, they're not the best films out there but when you sit down to watch one you know what you're getting yourself into a love plot + thug life + non-existent parents + choreographed-spontaneous-dancing = dance movie but this has BoA thus I will watch it :)
So i finally watched it. I'm a fan of BoA, shes just super awesome and admireable. Someone i have listened to since i was a kid. I wanted to watch the movie for sure just because of her. But her acting lacked a lot.. :( Sadly.. I couldnt get into it and it seemed stiff and forced. Tho when shes on stage her expression is awesome (ofc)
Omg!I want to watch this O.O I love this kind of movie (like step up)...its awesome.and omg!BoA!!!!her english are good but wish in this movie she's from korea.
It was never promoted that well which is a shame because it's actually pretty Epic. A much better effort then previous dance films. I probably put this one up with Step Up and Save the Last Dance. Definitely recommend checking it out and BoA is also celebrating her 20th anniversary this year. So she has been pretty active lately. Forbes just interviewed her a couple days ago and it's a pretty amazing interview in itself. :b
it's almost like iv'e seen it before i have memories of Tyra Banks in the year 2000 dancing in a bar called Coyote Ugly but that can't be a movie can it?
Watched because I love Derek and she was good too! I really liked the story and they had great chemistry however some of the lines were a bit cheesy especially her ones I don't know 😂 but I'd recommend it! The dancing especially the duo with Derek and Boa were beautiful and the group ones to were good and loved the soundtrack!
Is no one going to talk about the fact thay Derek Hough is in this .He is the only reason I wanna watch this movie. And I bet you he's the one who choreographed eberything , with his emmy award self. Gotta give him cred too guys. I'm surprised alot of you don't know him. I'm14 and I love him. He's also the only reason I watch DWTS. Love you Derek.
Why do dancers in these movies always have only one shot? Not really, if you don't make it this time at your age, you're most likely going to keep giving it a shot.
I love BoA so much! When infirstg saw this it was in clips and I was so drawn to her and I didn't even recognize who she was! She was waaaaay over rated. America has been sleeping on her for forever. Such a shame! 😭
From the creators of other dancing movies you never saw comes a movie, where instead of exploring the true depths of the human experience with controversial topics. Or the bravery of some like the 16 year old girl nominated for a nobel peace prize. They instead make a movie about attractive people dancing around before the thrilling conclusion where they stand up for themselves and dance around some more. Its a movie slow bland it almost doesn't exist. So sit back and get ready for 2 hours that you could easily replace by just watching music videos of your favourite bands. Make your Move.
I could complain that this trailer showed the whole movie. But is there a template you can download online for these scripts? Just input the character names and your done.
Not just any dance movie, it has BOA!!! A legend of dancing and signing Korean, English and Japanese! Omg I'm too excited haha
I don't care if it's going to be a bad movie, I just have to see BoA on screen, I need to fulfill my fangirl fantasies.
I am so going to watch this!! I think its funny how they make her Japanese when she's actually Korean though. I love BoA.
Catherine Z What's BOA?
Richiee Hernandez BoA is the name of the main actress in this movie! She's a kpop singer!
Catherine Z Sorry I didn't know by the way. I know right, I loved this movie so much!
She's still Korean in the movie only born in Japan :)
Yeah that was a bit of a miscast but I don't think Japanese will mind too much as she is so well-known there. She's also a good friend of Crystal Kay.
They actually did a collaboration together which was pretty epic in it's own right. BoA also has connections with Namie Amuro.

Wow! SM Ent now have a movie with CJES Ent featuring BoA.. fighting for our BoA!!
As much as I love kpop I'm here for Derek Hough. He's an amazing dancer...the movie might not have the best plot but the dancing will surely be amazing! Cant Wait!
awesome BoA is in it, she is like the biggest legend kpop star in korea
BoA is such a great singer (got introduced to her through Inuyasha). However...the movie is a hit or miss to me.
i watched it cos of BOA and honestly it was such a good movie. hollywood needs BoA. her english is really good tooooo omg. shes so pretty and talented
BOA THE GODDESS!!
I really want to see this when it comes out on DVD!:)
Honestly if Derek would've had BoA sing or dance with him on Dancing With the Stars to promote the movie, that probably would've sparked interest in it. I blame poor advertisement. I feel bad because the crew all worked so hard.
हींदी
"they're going to send you back to japan" i think im about to cry HAHAHA
although its cliche, many people still love a good love story. im not going to compare this to any other dance movie bec each has its own different dance genre, there's hiphop, modern ballet, free style then there's tap dancing! woooow. it kinda feels different.
Before I saw Boa's name I saw SM entertainment and was like, why tf are they with this. Then I saw Boa's name and got really excited.
Japan again? I think she should be from korea in this movie, can promote k pop dance style as well.. She's from korea k pop idol anyway..
Yeah I totally agree, I cannot stand those movies in which they mixed up everything. Next time lets ask Jean Reno to play an American president just to see ^^
in this movie her character still korean...but born in japan...she will speak 3 language: korean,japan and english...
Lionel Gamba Osaka in this movie her character still korean...but born in japan...she will speak 3 language: korean,japan and english..
Rie Chan Thank you Rie, I am happy to hear that, she should definitely play a Korean, she doesn't look Japanese at all, I am glad they didn't make her play a Japanese
Rie Chan i see.. it's better.. wow BoA can also speak Japanese.. it's difficult and i'm still struggling with it lol
omg they're literally dancing right out of their clothes
And some kids dare to say boa isnt qualify to be a judge on street woman fighter lmao
Hmmm I never would have thought you could make an interesting and romantically moving movie about tap dancing...and I was right.
My Review:
this movie is great and has a different take on romeo and juliet i give this movie 8.5/10, there was great actors/dancers in here Derek Hough great dancer from dancing with the satrs and then there is BoA a great k pop star and next we have Will Yun Lee who stared in red dawn and the wolvering and more but those is what i remember him from and last Wesley Jonathan who stared in roll bounce which was a great movie.

I like SNSD and so, but BoA still sell more album than SNSD in Japan.
Maybe not globally but considering Korea and Japan - she's huge.
Her biggest problem is her face being unrecognizable from 16 years ago. Who is really going to think that's the same face?
Boa, a kpop/jpop singer that can dance! 最高！
She is about a decade too late for this movie.
dokkiro she's hot and in her 20s? U think that jail bait should be playing her role? Stop hating on a trilingual world star 馬鹿！
Keiko Katze Don't get me wrong here I think she is still smokin but it took her too long to get here. If she made this sort of movie a decade ago she would have been still alive in kpop world right now. Who knows she could have been a full time actress by now.

Keiko Katze I live in Seattle. I sometimes wonder if she is the founder of Kawaii pop. ;)
BoA!!!! She is great! Have to watch the movie!
This looks like it'll have good dance scenes but I smell a flop in terms of plot and script
That's exactly what I was going to say! Plus I'm sure terrible acting! But I love seeing Derek Hough dance and his choreography is amazing, so I'll still watch it.
I think so too. Just hearing the dialogue in this trailer just makes me cringe bc of the cheesiness. But they all look great and the dancing seems superb. I mean... It's not like step up had a great plot either.
nutella871
The first Step Up wasn't too bad plot-wise (for a dance movie), but all the sequels have had horrible plots lol
OMG BoA! I am so watching this!
BOA is one of the biggest singers in all of Asia
I'm just watching this because of BoA
Dance movies will probably all have the same feel but that's what I kind of like about them anyway, they're not the best films out there but when you sit down to watch one you know what you're getting yourself into a love plot + thug life + non-existent parents + choreographed-spontaneous-dancing = dance movie but this has BoA thus I will watch it :)
BoA is queen of kpop & also known as 'Star of Asia'
Oh God, another dance movie. At least the characters are different.
So i finally watched it. I'm a fan of BoA, shes just super awesome and admireable. Someone i have listened to since i was a kid. I wanted to watch the movie for sure just because of her. But her acting lacked a lot.. :( Sadly.. I couldnt get into it and it seemed stiff and forced. Tho when shes on stage her expression is awesome (ofc)
it basically showed the whole plot in the movie. i might watch it bc boa's in it though
Omg!! BoA is in this movie! Woohoo!
BoA LOVE YOU
This was played on a channel in our country last year and I was wondering why I saw SM's logo then i realized it was BoA
This movie is at the Dollar Tree 🎄
Omg!I want to watch this O.O I love this kind of movie (like step up)...its awesome.and omg!BoA!!!!her english are good but wish in this movie she's from korea.
Wait.... is that... BoA!?!? In an American movie!?! Why did I not hear about this!?!
It was never promoted that well which is a shame because it's actually pretty Epic. A much better effort then previous dance films.
I probably put this one up with Step Up and Save the Last Dance. Definitely recommend checking it out and BoA is also celebrating her 20th anniversary this year.
So she has been pretty active lately. Forbes just interviewed her a couple days ago and it's a pretty amazing interview in itself. :b
my feeeeeeels! boa is so gorgeous and talented

AHHYH BOA!!!!! IT HAS CJ AND SM ENTERTAINMENT ♡♡♡♡ OMGGGGG

"There gonna send you back to Japan."
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BOA IS IN THE MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait to watch it!!!!!!
wow derek is actually a decent actor
"They're gonna send you back to Japan"
NOPE can't take it seriously anymore the end
Not my cup of tea, but I hope this is a success so more Asian-Americans will get a chance in the spotlight.
Twilight doesn't look so bad now.
OMFG queen BoA
i have never seen a more original movie before!
Man, it's like Hollywood has some sort of obsession with pumping out original and fresh movies!
it's almost like iv'e seen it before i have memories of Tyra Banks in the year 2000 dancing in a bar called Coyote Ugly but that can't be a movie can it?
Watched because I love Derek and she was good too! I really liked the story and they had great chemistry however some of the lines were a bit cheesy especially her ones I don't know 😂 but I'd recommend it! The dancing especially the duo with Derek and Boa were beautiful and the group ones to were good and loved the soundtrack!
This movie was so underrated :(

OK Now this is gonna be an AMAZING MOVIE
It's like I've seen the whole movie after watching this trailer
I want to watch this movieee.....
woow boa's still got it
So inspiring
The movie we never asked for but the producers decided we're going to get.
BoA is amazing!
Did not know that this existed, so here is my comment; I like how BoA has a stronger accent than her father
BoA ❤️❤️
eeeek Boa is a legend!!!
Omg Boa 😎
*****
In the movie, she plays a Korean woman who was born and raised in Japan
Omg BOA !!!
Looks good
He's awsome
OMG BOA HAS A MOVIE!
Is no one going to talk about the fact thay Derek Hough is in this .He is the only reason I wanna watch this movie. And I bet you he's the one who choreographed eberything , with his emmy award self. Gotta give him cred too guys. I'm surprised alot of you don't know him. I'm14 and I love him. He's also the only reason I watch DWTS. Love you Derek.
I WANNA WATCH THIS!!!
BoA!! Although I'm not sure if I want to watch the movie though...
just came for BoA c:
what song is in the beginning?
Japan BoA? Really?
korea
She's actually Half Japanese and Half Korean
Ju Yeon Chae lol no shes korean. she's just promoting in japan!
I know she's korean you guys. I'm just being sarcastic. Lol.
If you guys are referring to the movie, she is a Korean who lives in Japan in the movie. (:
BoA !!!!!
Love BoA, but this looks terrible.
Wow
Pretty surprise that she speaks such fluent English
Thumbs up for that
BoA
Why do dancers in these movies always have only one shot? Not really, if you don't make it this time at your age, you're most likely going to keep giving it a shot.
I think this movie isn't just coming soon, we already have a tape of this Movie
Where can I watch this ?
BOAAAAA
i've since this movie several time, only this time it's a Japanese girl.
BoA is actually Korean...

That lucky bastard... lol
BOA is the Queen of KPOP
woow BOA never get young

I love BoA so much! When infirstg saw this it was in clips and I was so drawn to her and I didn't even recognize who she was! She was waaaaay over rated. America has been sleeping on her for forever. Such a shame! 😭

OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG BOA! BOA!
She's not Japanese, she's Korean....
No one said she was. In the movie she’s just a korean born in japan. It was to promote Japan at the time
BOA!!!!!!
Looks good... But then again, I've been a sucker for dance movies ever since I saw Channing Tatum in Step Up!
BOA!!! 💕
What's the music at the beginning
Does anyone know if this is gonna be released in the UK?
I don't think so i was checking on imdb and i can't find one for the uk :( :(
hahaha .. I really noticed in american movies they always change the nationality of asians... Koreans to Japanese sometimes Japanese to Chinese hahaha
I could complain that this trailer showed the whole movie. But is there a template you can download online for these scripts? Just input the character names and your done.
this movie was already last year in the dutch cinema #BoA
