On the 10th, the popular Korean band FTISLAND released its eighth mini album "LOCK UP". In addition to FTISLAND member Li Hong's voice based on his personal official IG, CNBLUE members Lee Jeong-shin and Kang Min Hyuk, who also belong to FNC Entertainment, also supported their new work at IG.
"LOCK UP" is a new album released by FTISLAND after two years and two months, and it is also the first work released by all members after completing military service. The company said it depicts complex emotions after facing separation and deciding to fall in love again, while the title song "Unthinkable(말이 안 돼)" shows the inability to accept breaking up with a lover.
On the occasion of FTISLAND's 14th anniversary in June, Hong Ki, who retired in April, shouted to Lee Jae-jin and Choi Min-hwan, who were still serving in the military, "Hurry up and make an album." In August, it was mentioned in the live broadcast of the discharge that because of the epidemic, it may be difficult for them to have official activities this year, perhaps until next year. After Min Hwan was discharged from the army in September, when the three of them were jointly featured on the music program "Yoo Hee-yeol's Sketchbook", Hong Ji revealed that after consultation with the company, a new album could be released as soon as December.
Yesterday, Hong shared a group photo of the members of the group based on his personal official IG (click to see) and wrote down a text to express his feelings. Hongji said that although he often finds it difficult to meet everyone's preferences, this time it was after they were discharged from the army and it was a long time before greeting everyone in the form of "FTISLAND", so they tried to prepare music that felt familiar but at the same time fresh (세련된), and I hope that everyone will listen to it a lot.
Min Hwan also posted on his personal IG yesterday: "FTISLAND's album is coming out! It's been a long time coming. Enclosed is a group photo of the three members. On the album page of Lock UP shared by Zhenze at IG (click to see) and hashtag, he wrote, "말이 안 돼 (Unthinkable)/Hurry up/Come and listen". In the post message area, CNBLUE member Li Zhengxin responded with his official IG account: "Listening to Oh (Flame Symbol). ”
In addition, Zhengxin also shared the pages of all the songs of "LOCK UP" with IG time-limited dynamics, attached three flame symbols, and marked the IG accounts of FTISLAND Hongji, Jae Jin, and Min Huan. CNBLUE Jiang Min hyuk shared an official MV of FTISLAND's new title song "Unthinkable" in IG's time-limited dynamics, also marked the IG accounts of FTISLAND members, and also wrote "the song is good" to support them.
