FT Island to Release 6th Mini Album!

It was announced though their official Facebook site that the handsome K-PopRock group, FT Island, will be releasing their 6th and newest Korean mini album titled, "Thanks To"!

As a sort of tribute to their fans, the five have embarked on a tour specially for the fans who have given them so much support called, "FTHX" or FT Thanks. It seems that they've translated this to their new anniversary album as well. 

They will be doing a Q and A on their Facebook site from September 9th through 13th. Fans will be able to post a question and the members will select questions to answer personally. The answers will be posted when the album releases on September 23rd.

Post post post!

So excited to see what the questions and answers will be. (Btw, please be thoughtful and respectful in your questioning.)

Even more excited for their new album!

Review: FT Island's New Japanese Single "You Are My Life"

Here I go again, FT Islanding up my blog! For fans and Pri's, the next musical chapter in these 5 treasures' career is coming up very soon. They will be releasing a new Japanese single called, "You Are My Life".

It's soft rock ballad that starts off with leader Choi Jong Hun on the piano and moving throughout. Mixed with Seung Hyun's rock chords on guitar, Jae Jin's back-up harmonies and Hong Ki's vocals carrying the simple melodic line, it's certainly touching and sentimental. "Listen to my heart...Even till this day, even when you are far away from me...You are my life..." (Sorry, my Japanese is a little rusty. I still have a hard time gathering gists of songs in Japanese, especially slow songs because they break up the syllables. And it's been years since I tried to speak semi-fluently. I'll try to post the English subs when they're available.)

I, for one, love this song. Not just because it's FT Island and Lee Hong Ki, but I like the types of songs that you can listen to and know the theme of the song just by listening to the music. Even though it's in a different language, it touches your soul.

Here's the video released by Warner Music Japan. All right's to them and FT Island. I wish they sold the music on iTunes in the States, but this will have to do.

On sale March 27, 2013!

CNBlue Comeback

I just wanted to say that I am so excited for January 14th to come. It's one day closer to pay day AND it's the day CNBlue will be coming out with their next mini album, Re: Blue.

Since the boys have been touring Asia and Europe a lot, they've been garnering a lot of attention and especially fans. Here in the States it's still taking us a while to catch on. But at least we know about them thanks to the Mnet Nokia Standup Concert in March of last year.

The concept looks interesting and they've been promoting the album crazily, showing how hard they've been working by tweeting a lot more.

Get ready for something great Boice fans! I know the guys won't let us down!

Oh it would have been a perfect time to visit Korea this month and next month. You know they will be doing the comeback stages on all the major shows!
