In my memory

Listening to FTISLAND’s 5th Album, I Will, the journalist made a reflection.

FTISLAND is a group who has been around for 9 years by debuting with the soft ballad song, “Love Sick” and caused a band craze in Korea. 

The presence of the band consisting of the vocalist who is a former child actor, Lee Hongki, along with equally flower boy members, and also Han Sungho CEO’s company’s first band, FTISLAND was unwelcome by journalists. 

No, rather, growing up listening to the music of Judas Priest, Metallica, Guns ‘n Rose, and Pantera’s Darrell Dimebag, then I just felt like laughing. To journalists, FTISLAND just felt like a “band” who was born with a golden spoon in their mouth, and was just designed by the company.

Werent there many who had similar thoughts? FTISLAND was never mentioned as a band, the title “idol band” was the one that we always stick with them. 

But thats just a story lingering around during the time they first debuted. 

“There are people who see us like that. But, we will continue our activities, and one day, we will show you our beautiful music.”

▲ Did they want us to just look at their music? They didnt even show their faces in their album jacket.
