BoA To Feature EXO's Sehun In Comeback Music Video For 'Who Are You'

A member of one of South Korea's most popular idol groups will be featured in a music video for one of Korea's top stars.

On May 6, BoA, SM Entertainment's top female solo artist and one of the forerunners of the Korean Wave (Hallyu,) will make her comeback with a new song "Who Are You." According to SM Entertainment, the song's music video features an appearance by EXO's Sehun.

The music video will be dramatized and "about a man and a woman, who have good nervous feelings ahead of their blind dates with each other," explained SM Entertainment. "EXO's Sehun will make a special appearance to support BoA in her comeback."

SM Entertainment revealed the news on the company's blog, SMTOWN Now, and BoA shared a post on Instagram about Sehun's appearance.

"In the music video... I... didn't meet Sehun... hehe," wrote the singer, adding hashtags for the Korean and English title of the song.

Sehun will be acting as the man opposite BoA. The EXO member previously worked with BoA during her promotions of "Only One" in 2012, appearing in her performances as the male counterpart dancer. Several other SM Entertainment male idols also appeared during BoA's "Only One" promotions.

"Who Are You" is a pre-release song from BoA's upcoming eighth album. SM Entertainment revealed that BoA wrote the song, which is an electronic dance pop track that features a rap by Dynamic Duo's Gaeko.

The album is BoA's first Korean album in three years, following "Only One." The solo artist released a Japanese album, "Who's Back?" in 2014.

BoA's new album will be released on May 12.
