Folllowing our interview with FT Island, Soompi sat down for an interview with the four charming boys of CN Blue! Just yesterday night, the two idol bands held their first ever joint concert at the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles. In their first visit to the States, CN Blue shared their impression of America, international fame, the upcoming third album, and their newly-found love for American food (yes, steak and In-N-Out!). While the boys were professional and polished, they occasionally cracked up at each others’ comments and Yonghwa’s confident English skills.  Read the full interview that Soompi was part of here

Part 1 of Soompi’s interview with FT Island. Part 2 with CN Blue soon!

Fanlala: Did you expect to make it big and find international fans?

We were surprised and didn’t expect this many international fans. It’s fascinating for us.

Soompi: Are there any plans for FT Island members to act in dramas or movies this year?

We’re currently exploring our options to see what opportunities are available.

APA: As both groups are popular in Korea and overseas, how would you describe your music style to overseas people?

Overall, we think Korean music  as a whole is an emotional genre, and very expressive and sensitive. In terms of the music style and genre… in the case of Japan, those groups are already very familiar with the genre like Japanese/Asian rock. In terms of trying out new  styles, we’re very open to it and we also want to try new things.

Fanlala: Are there any American artists that you are fans of, or would like to possibly work with in the future?

My Chemical Romance, Hoobastank, or Jason Mraz.
