Hurricane Venus is the sixth Korean language studio album (fourteenth overall) by South Korean singer BoA, released on August 2, 2010, by SM Entertainment, to coincide with the tenth anniversary of the singer's career. It is BoA's first major Korean-language release since the repackage version of Girls on Top in 2005, and subsequently her second major release in a year following her seventh Japanese album Identity in February 2010. A dominant electro-pop and R&B record, the album was executively produced by her label's founder Lee Soo-man, while seeing BoA co-writing and composing along with several songwriters and production teams, namely Hitchhiker, Kenzie, Yoo Young-jin, Erik Lidbom, Anne Judith Wik, Martin Hansen, Kim Jong-wan, Kim Dong-ryul, Lindy Robbins, Toby Gad, and more. Under the repackage title Copy & Paste, the album was re-released on September 27, 2010, nearly two months after its original release. Announcement In March 2010, SM Entertainment announced that BoA was to release a new Korean-language album—her first since 2005—to commemorate the tenth anniversary of her 2000 debut. BoA was said to be in the process of selecting songs for the album, and would return to South Korea following the completion of her Japanese tour to promote Identity in April.
