TRANS Fanacc - RATED-FT Fanmeeting

Q: How do you paint the picture of your ideal wife?

Hongki: She has to be smart, someone who possesses the qualities which I don't have. I started singing when I was young, so I didn't have the chance to study much. I can't marry anyone who is not smart or who is very serious.

 When replying about the rumour that FTISLAND is going to disband, Hongki said "I will guard and protect FTISLAND forever!"

Cr: FkaanaaT

Hongki: To prepare for the Summer Arena Tour in Japan, we have been practicing daily into late nights regardless whether we are in Korea or Japan.

Before the start of any concert, if we have not made 100% preparation for it, we will feel very insecure.

Although we are not 100% ready yet, but I still want to hold the concerts quickly, I have been looking forward to it for a long time! Though I'm not sure whether it will be a successᄏᄏᄏ

Minari said that now his sleeping hours is approximately 4 hours per day, so he wishes to have a week whereby he can relax just by sleeping and playing online games.

Upon hearing this, Hongki joked "You're going to be fat again if you really do that"XD

Q: In which area do you think you have matured recently?

Minhwan: When I took a bath 2 months ago, whenever I looked into the mirror, I would think "Ah, what a pig!" (rubbing his tummy with both hands)

Hongki: A white piggy!

Seunghyun: Minari always bathes with me, and he will look into the mirror and goes "Seunghyun, Seunghyun!! Have I lost any weight?" (imitating Minari)

Minhwan: However, I have been exercising very hard for the past 2 months, so I manage to lose some weight."

(Loud applause from the audience)

Hongki: This is not maturing, it's just losing of weight!"

(Everyone burst out laughing)

At the end, when the members took turn to speak to the fans, Minari said " Everyone, please be sure to watch my musical!"

Jaejinnie then said "For my musical, it's okay if you don't come, because I will think about everyone and work real hard (smile)"

Hongki joked "This is because the popularity of these two is completely different" XD

Hongki said that this year, he seems to have many activities in Japan as well. And because of this, there are Korea Pris asking him "Are you a Japanese?" So he answered he will work hard in the activities in Korea too~

(I guess this can't be help, though it's sad, but the Japanese seem to appreciate the talent of FTISLAND more..)

On the topic of quarrel, the parties involved usually goes like this:

Minari with Seunghyun;

Hongki with Jonghoon;

Hongki with Seunghyun;

Jonghoon with Seunghyun;

Minari with Hongki..

Jaejinnie 's name doesn't appear as he will always be the first to say "It's my fault, I'm sorry!"

Cr: FtMM29

[130609 Fan-Meeting]

When being asked what sort of challenge would they like to take up,

Hongki: I want to tour Europe again! And to cut a solo album!

When the topic of solo album was raised, Jaejinnie was desperately shaking his head at the side (laughs)

Jaejinnie: I want to participate in Immortal Song alone.

Minari: When I see Hongki hyung participating in a movie, it makes me wish to be in one too.

Cr: FtGtKD

[130609 Fan-Meeting]

MC: How do you rate the album?

Jonghoon: 80%

Audience: ?!

MC: Why is it 80%? XDD

Jonghoon: The songs…○☆□ … Let's drop this topic.

Hongki: Hoonie is always like this, whenever he doesn't know what to say, he will say "Let's drop this topic" XD

However, he eventually answered: Because this time Hyunnie and Minari's songs are not included.. (´；ω；`)

When Seunghuyn was asked to talk about the "must-listen" points of the album, Hongki said "Hyunnie will always memorize what the other members had said earlier in other interviews, and then he will repeat them next time when he's being asked, as though those are his own opinions" XDD

Cr: churingles

[130609 Fan-Meeting]

Hongki: During live, when I was running on the stage, I don't breathe at all. This is because if I breathe while running, the melodic intervals will be messed up and then it will be a disaster. That's why I have to exercise to increase my stamina.

(Wow, no breathing while running all over the stage but still able to sing powerfully!!! Is Hongki a normal human being? XDD)

Cr: churingles

Chinese Translation: MylovelyFT

[130609 Fan-Meeting]

MC: What is your favourite song in the album?

Hongki: I like Time To, although the music is simple, but it becomes a great song when the person singing it sings better than the original composer XDD

*Jaejinnie is the composer XDD

Cr: FtGtKD

Chinese Translation: MylovelyFT

[130609 Fan-Meeting]

MC: How do you diet?

Hongki: Do aerobic exercise! And don't eat after 7 pm. If I am feeling really hungry, I will just eat either banana or chicken breast. I can lose weight just by drinking too, this is because the next day I will be having a serious diarrhea (laughs)
