F.T. Island, Hongki

F.T Island appeared on 'Cultwo Show' recently and talked about how hard it's been promoting "Pray," even though it was also totally worth it. 


Powerful vocalist Hongki, known for his blunt and frank personality, stated, "The time for music shows has gone a lot faster these days.  In the case with 'Inkigayo,' when we made our comeback, we prepared since three in the morning and recorded at five.  I just didn't sleep at all and loosened my voice.  The song is so hard this time I feel I could die." 


The DJs of Cultwo said to make everyone laugh, "That's why we don't go on 'Inkigayo.'"

Hongki continued, "This is the ninth year since F.T Island debuted.  Honestly, there were times we just coasted along when we felt like the song was not [truly] ours."  However, the boys took great part in creating this album, so it must feel differently.


He said affectionately in regards to the album, "I actually even stopped drinking.  I stopped because I didn't think it would be good for the song," impressing everybody there.
