FT Island: I Hope on Music Bank (7 Aug)

FT Island talks about education

In a recent interview, FT Island gave their thoughts on giving up high school edication, as well as how difficult it is to combine school and work.

Currently, members Choi Jung Hun, Lee Hong Ki and Jae Jin are attending university while Seung Hyun and Min Hwan are in high school. There was a difference of opinions between the university students versus the ones that are in high school.

Jong Hun and Hong Ki expressed, “We should attend high school education.” Hongki said, “Through education, we can make our dreams come true.”

But high school students, Min Hwan, Jae Jin and Seung Hyun objected, “We do not support what he said about high school education.”

Choi Min Hwan said, ” There are many things about life that we cannot learn through education. It is difficult to combine out school life and being in the entertainment industry.” Jae Jin continued, ” We can still self-study, in order to achieve our dreams in music. Learning the subjects in high school does not change our social life significantly.”

Meanwhile, FT Island is actively promoting songs from their new album “Cross & Change”

A recent photo of the 5-member band F.T Island rocking the musical "Grease" themed concept has been released - The boys show off a 'jeans jeans look' in the picture and carries a look that screams 'free' and 'rebellious.'

Their upcoming album "Cross & Change" will not only show off a new style of music, but also show off the matured and upgraded members in skills and high quality vocals.

On a side note, F.T Island will release their album and full MV on the 16th. The boys will start their 3rd album promotions on SBS Inkigayo / Popular Song on the 19th.

FT ISLAND

HEHE, MY BOYS!




The concept for F.T Island’s new album jacket was to show a more mature pop group, hence the Western movie poster-esque feeling. In addition, each member’s photo tries to portray each of their own image and (hopefully) charm, a new concept they haven’t worked on yet. And like the title of their new album, ‘Cross & Change’, the boys focused on a “cross over” transformation to their musical style. How? Well, in addition to their usual tear jerking ballads, a more light and upbeat style will be introduced in their album.

F.T Island is scheduled to release a short teaser clip on various portal sites on July 10th and will make their official comeback sometime mid-July.
