[1] A dominant electro-pop and R&B record, the album was executively produced by her label's founder Lee Soo-man, while seeing BoA co-writing and composing along with several songwriters and production teams, namely Hitchhiker, Kenzie, Yoo Young-jin, Erik Lidbom, Anne Judith Wik, Martin Hansen, Kim Jong-wan, Kim Dong-ryul, Lindy Robbins, Toby Gad, and more.

In March 2010, SM Entertainment announced that BoA was to release a new Korean-language album—her first since 2005—to commemorate the tenth anniversary of her 2000 debut.

BoA was said to be in the process of selecting songs for the album, and would return to South Korea following the completion of her Japanese tour to promote Identity in April.

[10] On August 6, BoA performed "Hurricane Venus" and "Dangerous" on the Korean television programme Music Bank.

[citation needed] By the end of the year Hurricane Venus sold 55,776 units making it the 22nd best selling album in South Korea for 2010.
