Kiss My Lips is the eighth Korean-language studio album (seventeenth overall) by South Korean singer-songwriter and actress BoA. It was released digitally on May 12, 2015, and physically a day later by S.M. Entertainment, and distributed by KT Music. The album features twelve tracks in total, including a pre-release single "Who Are You" and the lead single which shares the same name as the title of the album. The self-produced record (for celebrating the fifteenth anniversary of BoA's debut) is her first Korean full-length release since Only One (2012).
The album's pre-release single "Who Are You", written by BoA herself, is an electronic dance-pop tune with sounds of guitar and bass. Featuring a rap by Gaeko from hip-hop twosome Dynamic Duo, the lyrics of the self-penned song expresses excitement of a man and woman until meeting each other on a blind date.
The single was released on May 6, 2015, with its accompanying music video. The singer's labelmate Sehun (a member from boy band Exo) and actress Kim Hyun-ji co-starred in the music video as blind date partners. The music video shows varied places and props, and also sensory images mixing reality and fantasy through a lot of CG-based special effects.
