It has been about two years since five-membered FTISLAND appeared in POTATO (magazine)! On the day of shooting, they greeted the photographer and then started the shoot. In the end... When he saw the photographer's unique actions, Hongki suddenly burst out laughing!! And then, Minhwan, Seunghyun and Jaejin, who had been stifling their laughters, also followed. One by one, they started to laugh out loud!! Hongki said, "What is this!? What's wrong with you!?", as he happily laughed and talked to the photographer.
And then Jonghun, from the back, hugged Hongki and tried his best to stifle his laughter!...The atmosphere immediately became warm and fuzzy. Following, the rock and roll rhythm (background music in the photoshoot venue) made the five of them sway and laugh! (To see these, please look at P134~135 of the May issue!)
Having completed the shoot under everyone's continued laughters... they walked to the photographer who had used much of his talent for the shoot, asking, "Are you tired? Are you okay?". Everyone said such heartwarming words!
During the interview, we gave everyone each a fruit cake, eating while doing a FREE TALK regarding "Marriage". When it came to the question on Ideal Marriage, Hongki teased Jonghun about what he said quite a few times. From the start till the end, they freely and happily talked; the atmosphere was really warm!

◆ Ideal girl type
JH: I like girls who are gently and come with a fragrance MH: Someone with beautiful eyes JJ: Someone with fair skin SH: Someone who is tall, a charming smile and nice legs HK: I like someone who has charm
Additionally, please talk about the difference between Japanese and Korean girls.
HK: Their voices are high, and they are gentle~ Korean girls are a little on the strong side (laughs)
Also, where would you like to go with Japanese girls?
HK: I want to bring her to Korea's amusement parks, or the sea
What if it has to be in Japan?
HK: If it's Japan, because Japanese girls would know better~ So I'll ask her to bring me JJ: Fuji-Q amusement park JH: DisneySea or aquariums HK: Are you guys kids?
If you have someone you like...
JJ: Every one of us will actively pursue
They have stayed put in Japan for nearly two weeks. Have they refreshed themselves with Japan?
JH: We all went to the hot springs in Hakone HK: I didn't go (lonely expression)
But Hongki said that when he is in Japan, he went to celebrate Kenn Sato's birthday; spent time together with Japanese friends ONE OK ROCK's Taka, Miura Shohei and Yamada Shintaro. He was asked regarding his friendships.
HK: Originally, I already liked ONE OK ROCK. After bumping into them coincidentally in Korea, we got close. I'm close to main vocalist TAKA because of SUMMER SONIC, where we sang the opening stage and right after was ONE OK ROCK.
◆ The secret to realising your dreams
MH: Embrace a big dream, and never stop thinking about it JH: No matter when, please be cheerful and strong JJ: Look upon somewhere much higher~ And then have confidence in yourself SH: Please find something you like~ I will support you HK: You're not allowed to give up~ Don't hide away
The reason why they can be alive is because the PRI exist. During the interview, Hongki also said, "I like our fans the most~ Today, I also had a promise with them." That is what he wrote on Twitter a few days ago: "Tomorrow, let's do something interesting. When I said, "Do you know FTISLAND?", everyone replied "Do you know Primadonna?"." In that instant where his stage was affirmed, a smile appeared on Hongki's face as he said, "Thank you everyone, for keeping to our promise."

- (To Seunghyun) How do you feel after joining FTISLAND?
SH: I'm very honoured to be able to join FTISLAND. Although I could not believe it and I was shocked, I believe that as long as I can do it, I will put in my utmost effort. So I ask for everyone to support me.
- In the band, who's the strictest?
SH: There isn't a member who instils fear in me (laughs) The hyungs are all very nice people, really great. During the times when I make mistakes, "This here isn't right", they would gently teach me. They also treat me really well, especially Jaejin. Because he is only older by a year, our ages are quite close and so we especially hit it off.
- (To Jonghun) From the leader's perspective, how has it been since Seunghyun joined?
JH: Not only myself, but the others have also taught Seunghyun many things. Although he isn't here to replace the empty space of (former member) Wonbin, he is really working very hard. I look forward to when he can shine with the status of an FTISLAND member. HK: I did teach him guitar. All (except HK): Liar (laughs)
- From today on, who would take over Wonbin's parts? And can you please tell us how FTISLAND will be different from in the past?
HK: Firstly, Wonbin's part will be taken over by Seunghyun and Jaejin. Furthermore, the area in which there would be a difference from before is that because of the addition of Seunghyun, we have become younger (laughs) In the character aspect, because he is very cheery, our band will also give off a much cheerier feel. Seunghyun's height is also tall and he is handsome; he has a really good feel. Band-wise, Seunghyun possesses a good voice. If we are able to meld the singing vocals together properly, I think we can bring everyone even greater music.
- (To Seunghyun) Your thoughts regarding the first time meeting Japanese fans?
SH: Because it's my first time meeting the Japanese fans, I'm very happy. Even Japan has our fans: This issue gave me a shock. Also, I kept thinking that everyone might not pay me any attention. But everyone kept screaming, "Seunghyun~ Seunghyun". I'm really very happy. HK: Seunghyun was really very nervous at Osaka. His face turned pale, and his lyrics parts also had many errors. From now on, we've no choice but to increase practices.
- Did you eat anything nice in Osaka?
SH: (in Japanese) In Osaka, I had Takoyaki and Okonomiyaki. They were delicious.

As FTISLAND's lead vocal, not only is Lee Hongki largely popular in Japan and Korea, it is also true around the world. Apart from this, after his acting stint in serial「You're Beautiful」, he also received explosive popularity, retaining his identity as an actor. Additionally, last year, he was chosen as an MC, simultaneously also kicking off filming for a movie. He was so busy that he didn't even have time to sleep. Although it was only been a short 3 months, the MC activities has left him with a priceless experience. Now let's have him look back and talk about challenging the MC role.
Because I originally like being a host, when (MNET) decided to make me the MC, I was really happy. So at that time, I was also anticipating the completion of filming. M Countdown has many diverse artistes' performances and every week, I can see many new and lavish stages. Hence I was particularly anticipative.
The first time he appeared as an MC was last year's 30 August. He did the recording where he almost did not need to read from the script. From the very beginning, he did not even let on to the audience that it was his first MC performance, smoothly doing his job and shocking everyone around.
During the first broadcast, although I was a little nervous, I was used to it prior (to the emceeing). So in a very happy mood, I was excited as we did the broadcast.
The difficulty of being an MC... There's almost nothing like that. But I wanted to let the audience have the same feeling (as I). I kept working hard hoping to achieve that. For me to be immersed in happiness (of being an MC) is also important. But compared to wanting the audience to be happy watching, the latter is more important. Also, I hope that as they follow my hosting episodes, they would see the silhouette of my growth. I embraced such thoughts as I continued to work hard.
On his own live, Hongki also leads with his words to bring up the atmosphere. This time, while he was in charge of being the MC, the experiences of those times gave him a lot of help.
On the live stage, as FTISLAND, I've accumulated lots of experiences. It helped greatly when I was the host for M Countdown, something like spontaneity. I felt that I was also given the ability to properly take care of any surprise situations. Additionally, it also made me gladly take to the stage without hesitation.
When asked what he does in the waiting room to relax himself before the recording,
In the waiting room, I would eat my favourite ice cream. Also, at that point, I was passionately into gaming. If I did what I like to do, my mood on that day will also be very good (laughs)
Q&A
Q: Recently, have you had a thought like「If it were like that, it would be great」or do you have a wish?
To be together with FTISLAND members. In future too, I want to be able to continue with music activities under the identity of FTISLAND; that would be great.
Q: You seem to be really into doing nail art. Are there any recommendations for winter nail art? Also, how often do you do your nails?
Yeah~ Winter nail art~ It's difficult. Contrarily, I actually want to hear everyone's ideas (laughs) To me, nail art can let me have a change of mood. I want to try unique styles~ It feels fun. How often I do nails~ I've to go by the situations, it's not always fixed.
Q: Right now, what is the thing which you are privately passionate about?
Recently, I've been composing and writing together with the members. I also enjoy listening to music together with them. After listening to many other artistes' songs, we would discuss the song and its contents. Also, I want to go traveling with the members. Recently, whenever the members get together, we would talk about things regarding travel.
Q: Recently, what are the pranks you pulled on the members?
I didn't pull them on the members. A while ago, I wore a pair of shades with an interesting style and did a selca, posting it on Twitter. The members, Jaejin and Minhwan, also did funny expressions in the photo. That seemed to create a huge topic in Korea.
Q: Please tell us about the movie「불사조 (Phoenix*)」. Also, in the midst of your busy schedule, what do you most want to make time for?
I'm acting as a star who is like a problem child. The character goes to the hospital to do community service and eventually becomes really close to the patients. Right now, if I have time, I really want to have a good sleep (laughs)
To each other, they say: I really cannot do without you!
The message boards on which we wrote our warm winter sweet nothings to each other!
FTISLAND will release again a new work「Polar Star」on 28 November, fully demonstrating their status as a band; delivering a work of an even higher level, their ever-improving prowess. In private, they are also mutually aware and tolerable of each other's temperaments. So, how do the members look upon each other? And regarding FTISLAND's performance to date, how many marks will they give themselves?
FTISLAND will release again a new work「Polar Star」on 28 November, giving off the feeling of their status as a band, a work of an even higher level. This piece, of a rock and roll style, narrates that just as the Polar Star (North Star) remains unchanging of its position, my longing for you is also never-changing. Hongki's occasionally-soft, occasionally-powerful vocals, when paired with Jonghun and Seunghyun's guitars and Jaejin's smooth bass, coupled with Minhwan's dynamic drumbeats presented a perfect product.
「Fallin' for you」was written and composed by Jaejin. Playing regularly with the guitar at home presented him with the inspiration to write the melody of this song; it is also a new song which was produced with the intention of grasping the emotions of a female who is in love. The other song「Beautiful World」was composed by Jonghun, written by Jaejin; It is the first time when Jonghun used the piano as an accompaniment to seriously create a Jonghun-style ballad. He made use of his imagination to envision a cute and beautiful girl, creating this song's melody. Seunghyun's gentle and clean vocals was partnered with Hongki's strong and powerful singing, resulting in an unforgettable impression. The three songs with distinctly different styles also demonstrated FTISLAND's versatile musical style.
✫ Giving oneself 70 marks - Is it too much?
Q: Having been through concert tours in Japan, Taiwan, Hongkong and other countries, do you already have some sort of band confidence (in yourselves)?
HK: Although we have confidence, we are all the same uneasy. Because every time is a new beginning; every obstacle needs to be challenged continually. We need to keep on putting in our best to do even better. No matter which live performance it is, no matter whether it's the creation of the lyrics or song, we have to complete them with our own strength.
Q: Then, if 100 is full marks, judging by FTISLAND's performance to date, how many marks will you award yourself?
MH: 50. JH: Above 50? HK: Yes~ About 50. JJ: I'd said 70! SH: Me too! HK: Isn't 70 a little too much? We should be even more hardworking! Let's try harder~! Jaejin, the bass that you play - what is that. Aren't you going to put in more effort!
✫ Amongst the members, Seunghyun is the one with adheres most to the men's brotherhood.
Q: So what do the members feel about each other? JH: Although Hongki seems to be a little kid and is playful, when he steps onto the stage, he emits sexiness and charm; his eyes sparkle and he exudes attractiveness. But in private, normally, it is not that kind of feeling. Although in private, he has his personal and different sort of charm, on stage, he just has that charisma to own the whole stage. Seunghyun, although he is young, he is the one amongst all the members to demonstrate men's brotherhood the most. It's not a gentle feeling, but more of one which is like "I want to look after my friend." He places high importance upon friends, and has a strong sense of responsibility. But, of course, up till today, I haven't had a time when I needed his protection or help, because after all, I am the older brother. HK: Jonghun hid away a sort of charm which only I know about... Because we do not keep things from each other, we show everything out. This sort (of relationship) is quite rare, but because we're staying together... Yeah... Recently, Jonghun has been building up his body. JJ: Seunghyun, this child, has charm; from this angle, I feel that he is really very handsome! Jonghun has a lot of talent when it comes to interior design. When you see his room, you'll feel: "Wow, that's really cool!" I feel that if he buys his own house one day, staying in it must be really comfortable!
✫ Deep inside, Jaejin is a gentle older brother.
MH: Jaejin originally gives others a feeling of seriousness and quietness. But the one whom I know is very happy and how do I say this- has a sort of elegant feel. Normally, he would pull pranks and joke around, but he would also seriously listen to others' troubles and even helping others solve the problem. He's just like an older brother: He's very reliable, very dependable. Jonghun is that kind of person whom you meet for the first time and feel that he's a very cool person. But he really is a person whose inner heart is much warmer than what his exterior. Of course, there are times when his actions appear cold (laughs), but if you examine him closely, he's a gentle person.
✫ Minhwan has a slightly shy heart.
SH: Minhwan is someone who is resistant to strangers, always being shy to people who he meets for the first time. But actually, he is a very manly person, occasionally giving off the older brother feel. When I am vexed by many issues, he would often be the person I turn to for advice and discussion. Jaejin is really a gentle person, and he is one who warms up the atmosphere. During practice, he would assist in clearing up any situations, and I feel that that is his biggest charm. Also, recently, something else about him which shocked me is ... (At this time, Jaejin appeared: "You gotta say the good things!") I saw him bathing... (Hah!) (Jaejin: "So? Very sexy, right!")
PLEASE TAKE OUT WITH FULL CREDITS, INCLUDING TRANSLATORS. THANK YOU ^^
To FTISLAND, what is the Polar Star?
JJ: We will always be FTISLAND, even up till we're 40, I think. We will also persevere on in making music. JH: And all of the PRI(MADONNAs) who are very important.
「Polar Star」is also a very cool song.
HK: The song itself, of course. Even when performing it, it's also really cool. Please pay attention to the guitar solo part too. SH: If everyone can envision the scope of the lyrics while listening carefully to the song, we will be really happy. JJ: Coupled in the recording is「Fallin' For You」, where the song was composed by me and the lyrics written together with someone else. The content of the lyrics is that when the ideal girl appears, because one is afraid, he does not dare to approach and thus hates that cowardly self. JH:「Beautiful World」was composed by me. It is a ballad which brings with it a new feeling. I ask for everyone to try listening to it.
What kind of man do you feel is very attractive?
MH: A man with money. JH: Aye~ Minhwan is really weird (purposely sighs) MH: (laughs) I was joking. A person who does not talk about business in the middle of a conversation when everyone is having fun. JJ: I feel that a person who has the ability but does not really show it out is really attractive. MH: Is Jaejin hyung that kind of person? JJ: Aiyoh~ Before that, I'll have to add to my ability first, otherwise, I can't (be that kind of person). JH: I feel that work is work, play is play. A person who is able to properly distinguish between these two is attractive. To know how to relax is also a very important thing. SH: I feel that someone who can consider the people who are around, whether male or female, is very attractive. JH: That's right. A girl who is proper in her manners and also polite will look very attractive, and that's great. HK: I I feel that girls who have sufficient vigour to rival the boys are attractive. I will be mindful of her, full of anticipation for her.
When do you feel that you are handsome?
HK: For me, anytime. (Although he said it, he was shielding his face.) JH: For me, it should be after I shower. MH:Jonghun hyung is really handsome after he removes his makeup. JJ: Before, when Jonghun hyung was bathing half-naked, his hair was all slicked to the back; it was really handsome. SH: It was when I went out playing in the night, right? HK: That- what's so handsome about that? (laughs) SH: Is ... is it? JJ: (laughs) Then when do you find the other members very handsome? HK: When Jaejin went out to play, I don't know why, but he looked really pitiful. JJ: Eh? Why? HK: I'm kidding! Everyone is still the most handsome when they stand on stage. JH: Yeah~ The side profile of Jaejin seriously playing the bass is really handsome. JJ: Ah~ Only the side profile...? (cries) HK: Yeah~ Only the side profile (laughs)
☆SEUNGHYUN☆ What are the difficulties of being in charge of an instrument (the guitar)?
Recently, I bought a classical guitar. The (amount of) guitars which I like using is gradually in the midst of increasing. To be able to make each and every one of them into my own item is really difficult. (A/N: He means to be able to be really proficient in playing them.)
☆MINHWAN☆
Recently, what changes are (you going through) musically?
Although I'm the drummer, I recently bought an acoustic guitar (laughs)
What is your composing style?
Because I like ballads or Japanese band music, I would always use those as my references.
☆JAEJIN☆
The musical instrument which you love to use is?
From debut until now, I've been using a blue bass which is called Music Man. And recently, a largely used LAKLAND too. If a bass (guitar) cannot simultaneously present the rhythm and the melody, it won't do. So it's really hard.
☆HONGKI☆
When you're singing, what's your style?
Emotional. I want to become the type (of singer) who is able to steadily sing no matter the type of song; a main vocal like a chameleon (laughs)
For the (protection of your) throat, do you do anything?
I go for periodic checkups and eat health products.
☆JONGHUN☆
When you're composing, what's your style?
I play the piano or the guitar (when composing). Firstly, I would consider the portion on chords, and the last part will be the melody. The composition will also appear in my mind. I've created many ballad-type songs; I hope everyone can listen to them.
ORIGINAL CHINESE TRANSLATIONS BY @ejinhyun Special thanks to Mooe_Chu for scans of the interview!
PLEASE TAKE OUT WITH FULL CREDITS, INCLUDING TRANSLATORS. THANK YOU ^^
The 9th single「Polar Star」is an album which has a strong and powerful, gentle and hopeful song order.
JJ: Polar Star is also the north star; always at the same position, never-changing. This song is like it, illustrating how missing her will never change. JH: Traveling by light, five people will search for her together. All: That's not bad~! SH: It's very suitable for winter. HK: Personally, I feel that its sound feels more like the theme of an animation. JJ: Ah~ I know! MH: You can put on a comfortable feeling while listening to this song. HK: The rhythm is also very easy to remember, but the instruments seem to be pretty hard. MH: No, this time, it isn't that tough already. HK: Right...... I, my Japanese is almost all forgotten (laughs)
Everyone's Japanese is still very good.
HK: It's been a gap of 4 months before we came to Japan again.
After going through such a long time, how do you feel towards Japan, which you have not seen for so long?
HK: There are so many things I'm anticipating~! My friends have also been waiting in Japan; I always wanted to quickly come to Japan, but I had no choice. Today, let's all play until the last~! (Totally unable to calm down) JJ: Hongki hyung, before that, please complete all your work!
You must work hard, and play hard.
HK: ...... After that, I'll hand it over to Jaejin. JJ: Aye? This cannot be. I'm like hyung, having forgotten all my Japanese.
When you were on the plane, did you practice your Japanese?
JJ: I slept on the plane (bitter smile) HK: Today, we set off in the morning, so we wanted to sleep a little. Once on the plane, we immediately fell asleep.
Because your schedule is busy, so taking the planes must be the most important sleeping time.
JH: But everytime, we sleep until the right time before we reach. SH: That's a real pity (bitter smile)
The second song「Fallin' for you」was written and composed by Jaejin; it's a great ballad.
JJ: At first, I wanted to just use the acoustic guitar to record and produce, to create it holistically from a simple rhythm. But when I was doing it, little by little, I added in different effects. In the end, it became a feeling which is a little like U2 or British pop.
The third song「Beautiful World」was composed by Jonghun.
JH: I wrote all my feelings at that time into the song. When I was done, I felt like, "This is Jonghun's ballad!", and I was touched by myself (laughs)
The sad piano introduction is very impressionable.
JH: At the beginning (when you listen to it), you'll feel very sad and emotional. But as you listen on, you will feel that your emotions will become warm. SH: This song was sung by Hongki and I; it is really very hard to transit from the pre-chorus to the chorus's rhythm, especially the part A stanza. MH: There's an appearance of another good song! JH: From the start until now, although I've already made a lot of songs, I really like this one. It's probably my favourite. Because of this song, I want to try even more songs of different styles.
To you all, what is the thing which you cannot live without, the most important thing?
MH: For me, it's the phone.
Minhwan is someone who often sends messages and calls?
MH: Yeah. But recently, there isn't really anyone who sends texts to me; I'm so lonely.
Don't the other members text you?
HK: There isn't really anything which requires texting (laughs) MH: Even if I send texts, no one replies me...
Wah, that must be really lonely.
MH: Especially Jonghun hyung. He almost never texts me. HK: Jonghun ah, he usually doesn't pick guys' calls. But if it's a girl calling, he picks up immediately. JJ: (very high) Yes, yes, yes~~ All: (burst out laughing) JH: Talking nonsense~ MH: That's good~ Occasionally, pick up my calls too (fumes) HK: Ring~ ring~ ring~ (imitating Minhwan calling Jonghun) Jonghun hyung, quickly pick up~. JH: (looking at his phone screen) Ka-cha (hangs up the phone) Pu, pu, pu...... All: (burst out laughing) MH: Hyung, you're really too much~ JJ: But if it's a girl... JH: (enthusiastically) Hello~ Yes, hi, hi~ All: (burst out laughing) JH: I'm just kidding~
Then what is it which Jonghun cannot do without?
HK: Girls. All: (laughs)
That~ We should get back to business.
JH: For me, it's the computer. Because I need to use the computer to compose; emails and some information also need to be accessed with the computer. No matter whether I'm at home or outside, I really need it. HK: For me, it's clothes. JJ: Because Hongki hyung is the style icon!
Then let's ask the style icon, regarding this winter season, what are your recommendations?
HK: Languid style. And the furry type of things. Because it's very cold, wearing those will look really cute apart from keeping you warm. Recently, I've bought a lot more clothes again.
Hongki's closet feels like it should be very shocking.
HK: There are lots of clothes, I'm a little worried (bitter smile)
What about Jaejin?
JJ: For me, it's DVD. Because recently, we haven't done live performances, so I would watch our own concert DVDs so as to not forget that sort of feeling. HK: Liar~ JJ: I'm not lying! But the more I watch the DVD, the more I feel like holding another concert quickly. I'm quickly losing control (laughs) MH: Ah~ Really want to quickly do a live!
What about Seunghyun?
SH: The most important for me, that has to be the only Primadonna. All: Oh, oh~~!! (claps) SH: Always waiting for us, we're really thankful towards everyone, we're very happy.
For the Primadonnas who have waited very long, the single also recorded the Saitama concert (in First Press Limited Edition A) and the Mezamashi Live 2012 (in First Press Limited Edition B).
HK: That was a really good wrap-up. (laughs) JJ: No doubt it's Seunghyun~ SH: Nah~ I'm really sincere~ While watching the images of the live, everyone, please don't forget the initial feelings!
Alright, next, there's a line in 「Fallin' for you」, 'Your innocent smile took away my everything'. What actions of a girl can take away your hearts?
HK: For me, it's the same as the lyrics, that is, the innocent smile. JJ: A happy, playful attitude. I like girls who are outgoing and cute. SH: Giving something to others before folding her arms across her chest. HK: Ah~ I know! Especially (while wearing) clothes which easily expose, she will do this action. JJ: Aiyah~ (laughs) HK: Cute girls. (laughs) JH: Natural expressions. If it's an intentionally-created expression or attitude, I will immediately know. MH: A smell of refreshing shampoo or soap.
In front of those kind of girls, this song's main character will become speechless, become cold and cowardly, and unable to express his true emotions. If you come across such a situation, what would you do?
JJ: If I'm standing in front of the girl I like, I will become like the song's main character, becoming such that I dare not do a thing. This is the reason why I wrote this kind of lyrics.
That is to mean that the main character is Jaejin yourself. What about Minhwan?
MH: I will become speechless too.
That's like your image. What about Seunghyun?
SH: I will become one who loves to disturb her.
Hongki?
HK: I will want to touch her. (uses both hands to hold Jaejin's face and pretends to lean and kiss him) JJ: Ah~~! HK: ...... like this. I learnt it from Jaejin. All: (laughs) JJ: Aye? It's not me, it's Jonghun. JH: It's not me, it's Seunghyun. SH: It's not me, it's Minhwan. (pushes the blame around) MH: It's definitely not me, it's Hongki hyung!
In the end, it's Hongki, it's yourself! (laughs)
HK: What, erm~... Ah! It's Jonghun. JH: Me again? (laughs)
Then, what would Jonghun do?
JH: I'll... HK: Hold on tightly to her and not let go. (laughs) JH: I won't be like that. I will quietly look at her. HK: Look at her to find your chance. JJ: Sniper. (laughs) HK: The hunted will not be able to escape. JH: (does not agree or deny)
Not saying anything, does that mean it's not wrong?
JH: Hehehe. JJ: That's just a bluff. (laughs)
Then, to everyone, what do you hope a「Beautiful World」is?
MH: A world which doesn't require money. HK: A world which has only one man, which is me...... I'm kidding. (laughs) Everyone can do what they want to do; a free world. SH: A world where when two people are in love, they use an innocent heart. JH: A world where all girls can experience happy times together with the people they like. All: Oh, oh~~! JH: No doubt, whatever Jonghun says is different. JJ: Because he is the love sniper. (laughs) JH: I'm not! Because I'm not the love sniper, that's why I can say it out!
Jaejin?
JJ: Japan. Because Japan is a place where bands thrive; it's a world where you can learn many things. MH: For me, it's a world where there are the members and Primadonnas. Please always be by my side. HK: I don't want~ (laughs) SH: It's okay! There's me by your side! MH: Thank you, Seunghyun~ Next year, there are many plans in Japan; we want to spend it with Primadonnas! HK: Next year, we want to soak in music for the entire year!
Host: Welcome back to 日韓音樂瘋 (show name). Dear friends in the audience, do you know what I am holding in my hand? Yes, it is FTISLAND's personally signed board. Hey, aren't they in Korea? How can we manage to get hold of their personally signed board? Yes, because our Miss Dispatch for Korea-Japan went to Korea to do an interesting interview with them; and they mentioned in it about next month's upcoming Taiwan concert. Two concerts, right? What special things do they have to present to everyone? We shall have a look right now, at their interesting interview. After returning from the interview, we will give away this signed board! Is everyone really excited? Alright, let's watch the interesting interview now! Please watch!
-- INTERVIEW --
All:Hello everyone, we are FTISLAND.
SH:I am Song Seunghyun. Thank you. Happy New Year. May you prosper.
MH:I am Choi Minhwan. Thank you.
HK:I am Lee Hongki.
JH:I am Choi Jonghun.
JJ: I am Lee Jaejin. Jaejin, Seunghyun~
Host: Yes, you didn't see wrong. This round, 日韓音樂瘋 specially went directly to Korea; the ones who are coming to Taiwan again in December for a concert, FTISLAND, also received our interview! This year, FT released their new album, FIVE TREASURE BOX, which I believe to be an album which causes all their fans to want to collect! So what are the treasures of the five treasures? Leader Jonghun's answer made the members cringe. Let's listen to what they have to say!
- Question: What are the treasures of the five members? -
MH: For me, it's the computer. To me, both my computer and mobile phone are treasures. I think I don't have a real treasure. What do you have?
HK: My treasure is... (laughs) Same as me? For me, clothes are my most important treasures. Yeah, clothes. Clothes are my treasure.
JJ: For me, because I am the bassist, so the most important is the guitar.
SH: Are you referring to the guitar which you just bought recently?
JJ: Did I buy?
MH: You bought a new guitar.
SH: Please talk about what type of guitar you bought.
JJ: SG SG (electric guitar type). I bought a guitar even though I don't really know how to play a guitar, but because of composing, I started to learn [the guitar]. This time, I can really show the results, because the effects are good, so recently, I've been feeling really happy.
JH: Saying this at this sort of setting is a bit embarrassing; my treasure is actually the members.
(Caption: The others cringe.)
Host: And FTISLAND's previous title song, SEVERELY, had Hongki and AOA's Seolhyun acting in the MV, receiving much praise. This round's I WISH also had AOA member, Hyejeong, and Minhwan acting together. Now, FT will share with everyone the interesting happenings during the process of shooting (the MV)!
- Interesting happenings during I WISH MV shooting -
SH: During the MV shoot, something which happened on set, I didn't say anything wrong, yeah? Hyejeong, a member of AOA, a group from our company, did the recording together with us. In it, there was a part where the director requested for Minhwan to go really close to her. Because Minhwan has not acted opposite a girl for a long time...
MH: Just let me say it.
SH: The corner of his mouth kept shaking, shaking, shaking like this.
(Caption: The shy Minhwan is really cute!)
Host: Wow! Look at Minhwan being all shy. In the MV, I imagine that acting opposite Hyejeong made him really nervous! Also, FTISLAND's Asia Tour concert is also rapidly in the midst of being prepared. Coming to Taiwan again in December, FT also secretly revealed that the main vocalist Hongki will prepare a surprise for everyone!
- Surprise preview: December concert -
JJ: This round's surprise will be presented by Hongki to everyone. For all our fans and friends, we should be preparing a surprise activity. Like for our situation, because the concert theme and contents have been settled, there will definitely be an order to all the songs. Hopefully we can plan a middle segment as a present for everyone.
Host:Although the other members are playing around at the side, Hongki seems not to know what the surprise is? But he also said that being able to perform on stage is already the greatest present. Hopefully, at that time, the Taiwan Primadonnas can join in the fun too!
- Hongki's promise of a wonderful performance -
HK: I'm still not too sure what the contents (of the surprise) are. But every time we have concerts, we would always be asked, "What surprises have you prepared this time?" Actually I feel that every performance's contents should already be a very wonderful gift. So like what Jaejin just mentioned, because this concert has many parts where our members have participated in, we hope that everyone can feel the totally different contents of the concert. So this concert is actually a gift in itself. The most important part of a concert is essentially to let everyone listen to their hearts' content. Should we jump out on stage(as an opening)? The supposed surprise segment, I'm currently not too sure about it. Being able to perform already encompasses a highly important meaning.
Host:These words of Hongki's will definitely let the fans anticipate the concert performance even more, right? I believe on the concert day itself, FT will also display a perfect level of mutual understanding. Having debuted for 5 years, they must have many things to say to each other. Now, let's have them say a few innermost words to the member on their right. First, the words which Hongki wants to tell Jonghun the most seem to be related to his culinary skills!
- Innermost thoughts: Hongki to Jonghun -
HK: If I really need to say... Words which I want to say to Jonghun... Actually I normally say them all already. Jonghun really likes to cook. He really likes making dishes.
JH: Are you gonna praise me?
HK: That's not it. Actually I didn't really want to talk about cooking, this matter. I hope that after he finishes cooking, he can clean up a little. The matter of wanting to cook is a good thing per se. B ut I hope he can take care of this component called taste. And I hope he doesn't only "take care" of cooking, but also display the spirit of "culinary" delicacy. I hope he can be promoted to the level of a real chef and not just be a master of dishes. There's room for improvement; if it can be done, that would be good.
Host:Actually, Hongki just really wants to eat more of Jonghun's love-filled dishes; that's why he teased the leader like that! Then what does the leader have to say to the maknae Minhwan?
- Innermost thoughts: Jonghun to Minhwan -
JH: The words which I want to say to Minhwan... Firstly, Minhwan is preparing for his musical performance. Hope that every single performance will be smooth
HK: The performances will definitely be smooth.
JH: Hope that every performance will be smooth.
Host:Minhwan's musical will definitely go well! And Minhwan will do a love confession to Jaejin, because he thinks that Jaejin is really very handsome!
- Innermost thoughts: Minhwan to Jaejin -
MH: The words which I want to say to Jaejin... Recently... How should I say this. It's like I'm seeing Jaejin when I first met him.
JJ: Why do you say that?
MH: Because you're very handsome. Because he's very handsome.
SH: (Minhwan) said he's very handsome.
MH: Am I supposed to say the good points?
JJ: Good points.
MH: He really became handsome. Sometimes, when I see him in the morning, he is full of manliness. Like when he is fixing his tie, I feel that he's really handsome.
SH: Right, I think so too. When he's getting off from the car, the sight of his head emerging first is really handsome. At that moment, I think that he looks really "MAN".
MH: After getting his hair cut, he really became more handsome.
HK: It feels like he changed a lot. The people around us are all telling Jaejin the same thing: "Now we finally see Jaejin's even more handsome side."
(Caption: Jaejin is originally very handsome too!!)
HK: Very handsome~
MH: Anyway, he became handsome.
JJ: Don't you want to give me any advice or something?
MH: No, I am to say the good part.
JJ: Thank you~
Host:It's actually because Jaejin cut his hair that Minhwan feels he's handsome. The other four treasures are really too comical. So what does the handsome Jaejin have to say to Seunghyun?
- Innermost thoughts: Jaejin to Seunghyun -
JJ: For me, I want to tell Seunghyun... there should be many things to say. Recently, he started to exercise together with me again. I hope that he will eat more, so that he can hurry and become stronger.
SH: Me?
JJ: If you're stronger, you'll come across as more of a man. Just put in a little more effort. The two of them are fighting every night, like they're playing around, hitting about every night. But it's a feeling like an adult playing with a child; it's always Minhwan who wins. When it looks like this, I seem pretty pitiful.
SH: Actually, those people who exercise, their hearts are always good-natured. I am very kind-hearted.
(Caption: Seunghyun, fighting!)
JJ: Don't try to bluff others.
SH: Yes.
JJ: I hope Seunghyun will quickly put in more effort; things will become better.
Host:Hopefully, the kind-hearted Seunghyun can hurry and build strength together with Jaejin. Do win Minhwan next time! And Seunghyun has many things to say to Hongki, who has been really busy lately. And the dispatch team's specially prepared birthday surprise for Minhwan; all of it will be revealed in the next segment. Don't miss it!
~~PART TWO
Host: The bubbly FTISLAND's five members really have a lot to say. Regardless of whether it is to tease or expectations (for one another), they are all really cute. For the finale, Seunghyun really has many caring words to say to Hongki!
- Innermost thoughts: Seunghyun to Hongki -
SH:What do I want to say to Hongki... The fans all know that Hongki is currently filming a movie. The film's original name was "Our Heaven(*direct translation)", but is now changed to "FirePhoenix(*direct translation)". He is acting as a star who goes to the hospital to do social work. Hong-Star's starring makes everyone anticipate greatly. It's been filming for quite some time; he's quite tired, every time he wraps up filming and comes home, it is already the wee hours of the morning. And we nearly sleep till 2pm every day before waking up. We feel very sorry towards him.
HK: And Minhwan...
SH: Minhwan always sleeps until 2pm.
JH: Only Minhwan sleeps until 2pm?
SH: Yeah, so anyway, I hope that the following filming sessions can go smoothly too, and I hope that the movie can have great sales.
Host:Hongki, who has many roles to play, recently has to film a movie, do hosting, and also handle the business of being the main vocalist. He's really very busy. Our Hong-Star then said, because they're all work which he enjoys, so he will prepare even more seriously for everyone to see!
- Doing what he likes, Hongki is happy -
HK: I didn't particularly put in effort to do anything. I should say, I don't need to especially try to work for it. These are things which I have always been keeping an eye on. Because they are things which I like to do, so they're even easier to achieve. If I don't like something, doing it will become particularly difficult. But I'm always doing what I like: I like being a host, I also like singing, acting-wise, I also like it. And I'm very fortunate to have the chance to meet good works, to meet songs which sound good, to meet good television programmes; and so there are good results. I'm counted as one of those who have good luck, but because in future, there will be even more diverse developments, I have to start preparing ahead now. Then in the future, when I need to, I will practice and prepare. I don't work hard because of a particular goal which I want to attain, but I still try hard to practice singing.
Host:Hongki, who has always been showing us different faces, it's been really tough on you! But we also want to know, if leader Jonghun has the chance to become someone else for a day, who would he want to become?
- Leader Jonghun transforms into Hongki?! -
JH: I choose Hongki.
HK: Why me?
JH: Do I need a reason? Becayse his character is more rebellious, so if I become Hongki, maybe I can experience a different world, you'd never know. If you still can't feel it... I'm not thinking too much, just... I'm not thinking too much, but I just want to experience once, the life which he led before.
Host: I believe that if Jonghun transforms into Hongki, he can definitely also do very well! And from the very start, the one who has been praised by the members for becoming handsome, Jaejin, will now also display through his actions, where his charm lies. Jaejin's 3 consecutive selca shots will be coming soon~ Primadonnas, don't miss this!
- Jaejin's charming three selcas -
JJ: It's not, it's not, no, no.
All: Jaejin, Jaejin, Jaejin, Jaejin...
HK: Let's have a suave pose first~ A handsome expression. Please give us a facial pictorial. ACTION~!
(Caption: The handsome Jaejin)
MH: Cute, let's have a cute one next.
HK: Cute~
JJ: I don't know how to do cute.
JH: You know~ Jaejin, you used to always do cute expressions.
JJ: I really can't do sexy actions, I really don't have any sexy actions. I don't, I don't.
Host:Whether it's the cute or sexy Jaejin, every fan will want to properly keep him away, right? Additionally, everyone must already know that Seunghyun has recently been studiously learning Chinese. Now, let's allow him to show off the results of his studying!
- Seunghyun shows off his Chinese, confident as ever -
SH:Friend, teacher?! Teacher...
HK: Does that mean teacher?
SH:Listen to music... Right now, have you %^&* already?
MH: He's good at speaking.
SH:Have you eaten? You're very pretty. I love all of you. Thank you!!
Host: Seunghyun's enunciation is quite accurate; even his Twitter account was changed to the Chinese sounds (of his name). Still seriously studying is Seunghyun, whom I believe will have tremendous improvements soon! Minhwan is embracing a new challenge too: acting in a musical for the first time, he is very nervous. Minhwan is going to share with everyone his feelings during the practice and preparations!
- Minhwan prepares for his musical, nervous and excited -
MH: Currently, I am in the midst of practising hard for rehearsals. Because when I speak, my enunciation is a little (affected by my) big tongue, I spent a lot of time to correct that. I think that it'll be like that for my whole life; I won't be able to change it in the future.
SH: This is also Minhwan's charm.
MH: Because when I speak, because of the big tongue, I have already given up on acting. And when singing, I also have to dance. The singing part is already very difficult by itself, it's really very difficult. I am also trying hard to practice. Because this is my first time challenging a musical, I hope that I can do it smoothly. Fighting.
HK: What about the dancing?
MH: I really don't know how to dance.
HK: You don't dance that bad.
MH: Really? When did you see it?
JH: When you have the chance, you gotta dance properly.
HK: Anyway, there was this once.
MH: I hope everyone can come and watch my performance.
HK: Aren't there any other interesting things?
MH: Nothing really special.
HK: Doesn't Yunho-sunbae like you? He kept saying he wanted to act with you.
MH: Because this time, TVXQ's Yunho-sunbae is also acting together (with me), Sunbae also often teaches me many things. We're able to act in the musical together, and he often encourages me to perform well, there are such interactions.
(Caption: Minhwan, fighting for your musical!)
Host:And the dispatch team specially went to Korea this time to interview FTISLAND, coincidentally meeting with Minhwan's birthday. Such a special day, of course we had to celebrate it properly with the maknae! Dispatch staff, Chris, and the team also specially delivered fried chicken, which FT loves to eat, as well as a birthday cake. Let's hurry and listen to what Minhwan's birthday wishes are!
- Minhwan's birthday surprise -
All: Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, to our beloved Minhwan, happy birthday to you~ Happy birthday to you (x4)
Chris:Alright, now, in Taiwan, there is a tradition: The birthday boy/girl is the highest (in rank), and can make 3 wishes. And the three wishes must be said out loud except for the last one.
(Caption: Hongki's formidable palm wind...)
Staff: Please voice your wishes. The first two can be shared.
MH: Three? I hope to continue making music together with the members. And then... that the musical can have smooth performances. I wish that our members will all become rich people.
Chris:Then, here, apart from having prepared a cake, we also prepared, for today, the food which the members love to eat most.
HK: Chicken, chicken!
MH: Wow, this smell~
(Caption: Even smelling it will make them happy)
Chris:Apart... Apart from these, we have also prepared our local snacks as gifts for FTISLAND!
MH: They're from Taiwan.
JH: This is ... Pineapple pastry.
Chris:And this time, we have also prepared Taiwan's famous product, called pineapple pastry for FTISLAND.
(Caption: What are you doing?!)
HK: What is that?
MH: We've eaten that before.
Chris: Taiwan's famous product, pineapple pastry. This is to be given to our FTISLAND!
Host:We're really happy that FTISLAND took time off their busy schedules to hold an interview with 日韓音樂瘋. We are also anticipating the meeting with FT again in December. Lastly, let's have FTISLAND say a few things to Taiwan Pris!
- Words to Taiwan fans -
HK: We will go to Taiwan in December to meet everyone. I hope everyone can come and watch our concert. No matter when, whenever we think of Taiwan fans, we are always filled with grateful hearts. We will also repay you with interesting performances, please anticipate our performance. I hope we can play together happily. Thank you for always giving us strength no matter when it is. Thank you!

為什麼 Why?
飲料很撐肚子 Beverages fill up the stomach
哦哦哦 Oh oh oh!
(結果崔敏煥君的祕訣是不喝飲料啊?? So Choi Minhwan-gun’s secret is to not drink beverages??)

最後一次喝了 Drink at the very end
最後就 Then…
吃雞腿的時候也和吃雞翅一樣 有那個的 When eating chicken thighs, it’s like eating chicken wings, there’s that …
有方法的 there’s a method
與其說是方法 Instead of saying it’s a method
雞腿的話真的只剩後面一塊 For the chicken thigh, when it’s really left with the back piece
沒錯 That’s right
把旁邊的肉都吃了 And you’re done eating all the meat on the side
然後從上面這樣‘嘣’拔出來的 Then you pull it out with a “BONG” from the top
(哇~洪基的祕訣?? Wa~ Hongki’s secret??)
肉就吸進去了 The meat will be sucked in
這樣吃了以後 還有下面那個腳的部分 After eating it like this, and there’s also the lower part where the leg is
這樣‘嘣’然後就‘嘣’進去了 It will “BONG” like this and then it will go in with a “BONG”
就是這個 It’s just like this

連這個都吃了就只剩一根骨頭了 If even this is eaten, then there will only be one piece of bone left
想做這種不同顏色的炸雞 我們有什麼主意 To do different coloured fried chicken, what ideas do we have?
(Q. 想做這種不同顏色的炸雞 FTISLAND有什麼主意? To do different coloured fried chicken, what ideas does FTISLAND have?)
炸醬炸雞 用炸醬調料來做 Black bean sauce fried chicken. Use black bean sauce seasonings to make it
(炸醬炸雞??～ Black bean sauce fried chicken??~)
應該會很好吃 真的好吃 我的style It should be very delicious. Really delicious. My style.
那以上在追加 在放一點面 Then, adding onto that, add a little noodles
(Kya~~炸醬另外點?~~呵呵 Kya~~ Order that on top of black bean sauce?~~ keke)
啊 旁邊 Ah, at the side
像義大利麵一樣 Like spaghetti
那麼那個製作權這樣的 Then, about the creative rights…
沒有 現在我是第一個說的 None. Now, I’m the first one to say it.
可以稍微試試看 This can be tested upon
內 知道了 Yes, I’ve got it
炸醬炸雞 Black bean sauce fried chicken
點炸雞的時候 光點作料的不是會厭的嘛 一半是作料炸雞 一半是油炸雞 一半一半的 When ordering fried chicken, just ordering the seasoned ones might be a bit annoying. One half being the seasoned ones and the other being oil fried chicken, half and half
(一半是作料炸雞 一半是油炸雞~ One half of seasoned fried chicken; one half of oil fried chicken~)
不是一樣的麼 作料炸雞半 油炸雞半一樣啊 Isn’t that the same? One half of seasoned fried chicken, one half of oil fried chicken – it’s the same
(kekeke 承炫啊!! 作料炸雞半 油炸雞半 不是已經有了嗎～呵呵 Kekeke Seunghyun ah!! One half of seasoned fried chicken, one half of oil fried chicken – don’t we already have this~ keke)
是我的話 野芝麻炸雞 在油炸雞基礎上 放野芝麻 If it’s me, Wild Sesame Fried Chicken. Put wild sesame on top of the oil-fried base chicken
(野芝麻炸雞？？～ Wild Sesame Fried Chicken??~)
(你為什麼這樣捏～～？？可愛～ Why are you like this~~?? Cute~)
自己撒不就好了麼 Can’t you just put it on your own?
說的也是 Oh, that’s true
在家裡 很簡單的就可以完成了 At home, it’s very easily accomplished
我的話 泡菜炸雞 像用菜油炒一樣 For me, Kimchi Fried Chicken, like using vegetable oil to fry
菜油炒還放泡菜 Use vegetable oil to fry together with kimchi
(成員之間 互相揭短中～keke Amongst the members, there’s mutual interruption~ keke)
菜油炒不放泡菜的嗎 不是放的嘛 菜油炒的泡菜 雞肉和泡菜用菜油一起炒 覺得應該會很好吃 When frying with vegetable oil, isn’t kimchi used? Isn’t it put in? Vegetable oil frying the kimchi, chicken meat and kimchi together fried with vegetable oil – I think it should be very delicious
敏煥君的話 What about Minhwan-gun?
生雞 生雞 Raw chicken, raw chicken
就那樣吃吧 Then just eat it like this
放生魚片 Together with raw fish slices
(生魚片？~雞生魚片？？？keke 亂來⋯ Raw fish slices?~ Chicken and raw fish slices??? Keke ♥)
雞生魚片 什麼玩意啊 Chicken and raw fish slices － what’s that?
雞魚片 雞魚片 你就雞魚片吧 對不起 不管怎樣 Chicken and fish slices, chicken and fish slices. You’ll just have chicken and fish slices. Sorry. No matter what
就這樣過去吧 just let it pass like this
還有最近不怎麼想說的話題 鐘訓 洪基 和飯們約定在演唱會上露腹肌 就這樣過去吧 And, recently, a topic which I don’t really wish to talk about: Jonghun, Hongki and the fans’ promise to show their abs during a concert, let’s just let it pass like this
(Q. 鐘訓 洪基 和飯們約定在演唱會上露腹肌? Jonghun, Hongki and the fans have a promise to show their abs during a concert?)
再說炸雞呢 腹肌的話題幹嘛掺和進來 就這樣過去吧 We’re talking about fried chicken. How did the topic of abs get caught up inside here. Let’s just let it pass like this
有關連的吧 There should be a connection, I think
因為最近 巧克力腹肌麼 現在就雞腿腹肌 像這樣雞腿上六塊腹肌 Because recently, the chocolate abs, are now chicken thigh abs, like six pecs on this kind of chicken abs
(啊~~無理數!! Ah~~The unjustifiable count!!)
對不起 這個就當沒發生過 Sorry, let’s just pretend this never happened
不管怎樣 鐘訓已經在日本演唱會上稍微展現了一下了 韓國FM的時候也稍微展示了 No matter what, Jonghun has already showed a little on the Japanese concert. It was also demonstrated during the Korean FM.
我的話 因為炸雞的關係 吃太多 For me, because of fried chicken, I’ve eaten too much
因為TOREORE Because of TOREORE
照常來說 吃雞肉不是減肥的嗎 我因為TOREORE變胖了 吃太多的關係 Normally, isn’t eating chicken supposed to be for dieting? I have become fatter because of TOREORE, because I ate too much
完敗 完敗 Utter failure, utter failure
完敗 以後再展現吧 Utter failure. Let’s show it at a later time
(Q. 給PRIMADONNA和TOREORE飯們的留言？ Is there a message for PRIMADONNA and fans of TOREORE?)
最後FTISLAND向等著我們的飯PRIMADONNA還有TOREORE的飯們說一句吧 At last, FTISLAND is to say a few words to our fans, PRIMADONNA, and the fans of TOREORE
今天 現在在TOREORE 現在木偶村 很健康 在炸雞中最好吃的TOREORE Today, we’re now at TOREORE, now at Moguchon. We’re very healthy and we’re now at TOREORE, the most delicious out of all fried chicken
(知道說的是好話⋯問題不是這個呀～keke We know these are all good things being said… But the question didn’t ask about this~ keke)
現在來到了拍攝現場心情非常的好 五人一起笑著HIGH著 一手拿著炸雞 五人都一起笑著拍攝 很是幸福 We’ve come to the shooting site, our moods are good. Five people laughing and on a high, one hand holding fried chicken. Five of us are laughing while shooting, it’s very happy.
