FT Island-3rd Album interview 'we would like to be the winner at the awards ceremony at the end of the year'

When asked about their summer vacation plans, they replied, “Recently we went on a 3 days 1 night vacation with our CEO and other staff. It’s not even a 2 nights stay, it’s a 3 days 1 night stay! Even though it was short, it was a good break for us.”

They also pointed out that they’re close to other boy bands like 2PM and Shinee.

“Shinee’s Key. The first time we met, he greeted us as his senior and that left a deep impression. ‘Hello! I’m Shinee’s All-Rounded Key~’ Haha! That really was fun. We’re close with each other now too.”

As an idol rock group, FT Island also admires and respects Teddy from One Time.
As for the female artistes, Hongki likes Song Hyegyo. Following suit, Jaejin also recommended Kim Taehee. Indeed, they are the typical type of guys who like girls that are quiet and polite.

“If we can make a wish for this year, we would like to be the winner at the awards ceremony at the end of the year. Acting and other projects are important but what’s more important to us is our fans who have always been loving and supporting us and that made us strong. Please continue to support us in future too!”
