Lee Hong Ki is Getting Married?!

FT Island's Lee Hong Ki and Japanese Actress Fujii Mina

That's the latest news folks! Don't worry, the nuptials aren't real. FT Island's lead vocalist will be getting hitched on the popular Korean show, "We Got Married". He will be part of the International version of the show as the husband to Japanese actress Fujii Mina (25 years old).

Hong Ki has once said that he doesn't care about how old a woman is, as long as she is innocent looking and "voluptuous". Oh really? Geez, he doesn't sound like a boy anymore, sounds like he's a grown man now.

The first episode kicks off the first week of April, but they will have a live press conference promoting the event on YouTube on March 28th, so be on the lookout for that.

Let's see who is better at a relationship. After watching Choi Jong Hun on the second season of the Romantic and the Idol, one could tell his dating style was earnest. (Yeah, I think that's a good word for it, so I'll leave it at that.) Even though I have watched both Lee Hong Ki and Choi Jong Hun on Mnet Scandal (a dating show where the stars were paired up with pretty "normal" women for one week), this will be the first time that one of them will be in a "relationship" for more than a few days.

If you've ever seen Hong Ki on Mnet Scandal, you would have seen that he loves to eat hot pot and to feed his women (probably cause he was always hungry, lol). He was romantic on his dates, but when he was with friends, he tended to relax and forget that he had someone by his side. (Pool games are a total distraction for him.)

Rumours have circulated, well, more said by the band members themselves, that Hong Ki is ace at dating girls. Their company is always trying to keep things hush hush about his personal life. Let's see if his sweet demeanor extends to another culture. And let's hope that she teaches him some forms of honorifics (Japanese polite speak) because fans know that Hong Ki is very casual when he speaks. (And I don't mean he's rude, just that he's Hong Ki and he happens to speak that way.) It will be very interesting!

Fans in South Korea, China, Japan, Taiwan, India and Australia will be able to catch the international version on TV. The rest of the world will have to find alternate means of viewing. If I find one, I will let you all know.

NOTE: Check out my reviews on the episodes! I'll be updating this blog throughout the series!
