"Only One" is the title track of BoA's seventh Korean studio album, released in 2012. It is known as the first time a song she wrote herself became one of her title tracks. Along with the music, its lyrical choreography also drew a great deal of attention from fans and viewers.

To mark the 20th anniversary of her debut, BoA released the album BETTER in 2020. Led by the title track "Better," it was introduced as a celebration of two decades of music. It is a good album for understanding where this long-running artist stands today and how her sound has grown.

Since her debut in 2000, BoA has kept releasing music in both Korea and Japan over a long career.
