Background

On February 17, 2009, SM Entertainment USA released a 1:30 clip of the song on Myspace, Facebook, YouTube, Imeem, and iLike.[2] The song is about a woman who's been hurt by her lover and despite the fact that he leaves her, she continues to love him.[3]

Music video

The music video for "I Did It for Love" was filmed by Joseph Kahn in January 2009 at Ren-Mar Studios in Hollywood. It was released on April 15, 2009, on BoA's MySpace page. The music video incorporates themes of water, mysticism, and the color black, as well as BoA's use of a hand-held fan to produce an oriental feel to the video.[4] Portions of the video were considered reminiscent of Janet Jackson in its choreography and outfits.[5]
