Information

The single consists of one new song, "Milestone", and two previously released songs: "I See Me" and "Meri Kuri ~Best & USA Version~". BoA stated that "Meri Kuri ~Best & USA Version~" was also included because the release was around Christmas time. "I See Me", however, had previously been unreleased.

Music Video was released on MTV Japan on November 22, 2011.[2] It was later released by Avex on YouTube on December 4. The video was identified as the short version but it's actually the normal version.

Promotions

BoA performed Milestone in various events like Audio Technica 50th Anniversary Live Party, J-Wave Live: Autumn, and Soul Member Meeting Vol. 5: BoA 10th Anniversary & Birthday Party. Some TV Performances alongside the normal version of "Meri Kuri" were performed. BoA also performed a trio performance alongside Mai Kuraki and Kana Nishino. The trio sang a medley of their hits "Kimi tte", "Strong Heart" and "Meri Kuri" at Live FNS Music Party.

"Milestone" was used in Audio Technica 50th-anniversary products CM. Both "I See Me" and "Meri Kuri ~Best & USA Version~" were also used in Audio Technica commercials.
