FTISLAND - Shadows - Shado Reaction

[@akemi98suzaku]

All 5 of them are actors ( Hongki being the most active one). Hongki, Minhwan (drum), Jaejin (bass) and Seunghyun (guitar) performed in musicals. FTISLAND is active in japan almost half of every year. This is their 10th yr in korean and 6th yr in japan. If you want anime music, they did Neverland, Shiawase Theory (or Theory of hapiness). When they debut in japan with FLOWER ROCK, they set the record for being the first foreign band to be no.1 on Orican chart in ~40 years. While in Japan, they pretty much are free to release the style they want, which is like Shadow. In korea, it took them 9 years 'fighting' their company to release hard rock to the mainstream audience (starting with PRAY). But before that, they have always included korean version of Japanese songs that are harder. They are incredible live. Hongki till this day is still one of the best vocal in the industry. I recommend going through their discography first and start getting into their live concerts (preferably Japan concert lol, but i dont think you should react to those because of japan's strict copyright, we primadonna often share the concerts in private also due to that).

[@ShadoKPOP]

Wow, so all of them are actors. I think so far Hongki is my bias. I absolutely love it when Korean group also make music in Japan. I just means even more for me to watch. I'll try to watch out not to get crossed with Japan copyright's.

Heyy just your neighbourhood fan of FT Island tuning in! Glad you're liking their stuff. All of their recent stuff (from about 2010, but especially from 2015 onward) has been harder, which is fantastic! The members compose and write their own stuff too. This one was written by the lead guitarist (also the one who penned Pray). As for Anime openings, the EDs for Toriko at one point were their tracks 'Satisfaction' and 'Theory of Happiness', and another track 'Neverland' was used as the OP for an anime named Ozuma. They're my fave band of all time, because they are such a perfect blend of two of my greatest loves: kpop and anime. Thanks for the reacts! Keep up the good work! I'd definitely suggest checking out Take me Now too, and some of the lives of their B-sides (specifically, Identity, Time To and Aqua).

[@ShadoKPOP]

That is so amazing! I just get such an anime feeling from them. I will be checking out a lot more of what they have to offer. They definitely have a new fan in me.

[@mooncakiiee]

Shado KPOP hongki do musical live too

[@crysmesh101]

I love your reaction. I'm so glad you heard them now; listen to more of their songs, you will love them seriously. 😀 Try their 6th album "Where's the truth" with the title song "Take Me Now".

[@ShadoKPOP]

Thanks, I love them now. Also, I already checked out Take Me Now. Here is the video ^_^ kzbin.info/www/bejne/oWfVZXmfZrysma8&lc=z13jfzjiqt2izjded22ywp5rctu0wbvjc04

[@AlwaysFTI]

i've been their fan for almost 10 years. so proud of them. All of their japanese songs are incredible. You should watch their live performance! They are so talented but underrated in korea. They write all the songs by themselves.

[@bea0244]

I'm always grateful for the reactions. They're so underrated in South Korea.

[@mlbuchina96]

Love it! FT island is the best!! Welcome to the fandom. The guys are always happy to have another Primadude. 😆 (Their fandom name is Primadonna, Pri for short, with the guy fans calling themselves Primadudes.) I agree with everyone else's song suggestions, and that their lives are even better. They just have so much energy on stage! I hope you enjoy going through all their stuff. I wish it was all new for me, again, too! LOL

[@ShadoKPOP]

It's like finding a hidden treasure. Can't believe I never heard of them before. Also, yes I am now a Primadude!

[@user-gp8fr1nd3w]

Both Pray and shadows are self-composed (by the leader Jonghoon)

[@radsical1392]

Technically they can all sing. Technically. To rank them Hongki Jaejin (bass) Seunghyun (guitar) Minhwan (Drums) Jonghoon (leader/guitar/keyboard) Also this song was composed by Jonghoon. The album releases April 12 and I believe it's entirely self composed by the members! Even the maknae's (Seunghyun and Minhwan) have songs this time!!

[@ShadoKPOP]

Rads ical they are all just so talented !

[@radsical1392]

Shado KPOP they are!!! I love watching people discover how amazing FT is!

[@alive4411]

Try listen to their korean albums 'I Will' and 'Where's The Truth'. They're on Spotify. I like the whole albums so much I had to go abroad and saw their live concert (I really did and no regret) Linkin Park is still a thing tho. Still love them

[@ShadoKPOP]

I'll check it out. Thanks!

[@ky9999]
