It has been 6 years since the guys of F.T. Island debuted and it was not an easy journey. Through the ups and downs, who are the people the guys would like to thank the most? Cheesy, but it is no doubt the fans who stuck with them through thick and thin. It has been two years since their fans last saw them in Singapore and this time around, this concert is all about the band’s love and gratitude to them, also known as Primadonnas.
The short but light-hearted press conference started out with Hong Ki showing his goofy side. He was happy to be in a warm country as Korea experiences, but Singapore is way too hot! We are sure many Singaporeans would understand his pain! Minhwan also urged the ladies to wear sneakers over their heels and emphasised on how fun and crazy their concert would get. It was also Jonghun’s birthday on day of the press conference and to seal in the fun, Jonghun shared that the members are expecting something from him instead! When asked if he would show off his abs after working out all these while, he said that he did not feel ready but perhaps will make the exception as it was his birthday. Well, abs or no abs, we can be sure they are one amazing bunch of guys that we at Seoully SG would want to hang out with!
One could feel their maturity as a senior of the trade as they talk about their tougher times. Debuting young but talented, many wondered how long could they go in the industry. Back then in 2007, K-Pop was still trying to gain root in Korea and they definitely did not have the privilege of knowing that there will definitely be a group audience out there willing to listen to them. As such, the group faced a huge challenge as well as burden on their shoulders when they debuted but we can be sure to call them the founding fathers of K-Pop looking at the massive market right now.

Hinting of a new Korean album coming soon, Hong Ki mentioned that it will include input from everyone in the band and hopes that it marks a new start in their career. They hope that the general public and fans will like the album where they hope to seal in their trademark style and sound and stay true to their music. A Japanese album is also in the making and for that they are not selling any hints, so do catch the album once it is released!
To conclude, they left a message for all the fans! It has been 2 years since they were last in Singapore and they love the country as it feels like they are on a holiday. Well, we will definitely welcome you to our sunny island anytime should you need refuge from the cold weather, I am right, Primadonnas?
