Hongki says that F.T. Island questioned their musical identities

F.T. Island, Hongki
On the April 2nd broadcast of SBS PowerFM's 'CulTwo Show',�F.T. Island's Hongki revealed that he struggled to find his musical identity while promoting in both Japan and in Korea.�


While in Japan, Hongki and F.T. Island were recognized as a full-fledged band, who composed their own songs, and in Korea, Hongki revealed that they were just considered pretty faces who play instruments.



He said,�"I had trouble with my musical identity. When we would promote in Japan, we performed the songs that we made and people would acknowledge us as a band, but in Korea we're labeled idols and promote with the songs that our company makes.�I thought a lot about band music versus mainstream music."�


Meanwhile, F.T. Island recently made their comeback with their fifth album 'I Will', the first album full of songs that the members themselves produced and composed.�
