no bold lines because ft are pretty funny.
What did you do on Chuseok Festival?
Hongki: Went to Japan, started filming MV at 4am and did recording on the 2nd day till night.
Minhwan: Even the Chuseok's break was spent in Japan.
Jonghun: We were eating bentos when others were eating songpyeon (rice cake).
Hongki: Isn't it fortunate that we ate bentos instead of rice balls?
What about last year?
Minhwan: Last year? We were resting on Chuseok last year.
Jaejin: Resting?
Minhwan: There was one week of break.
Jaejin: We didn't have much rest last year right? Our mothers didn't come right?
Everyone couldn't really remember. The manager said everyone were resting on Chuseok last year, except for Hongki who was filming for the TV drama.
Jonghun: I would have remembered if we had rested..
Seunghyun: I was having a great time with my dad. But Hongki hyung suddenly called me saying that he got into trouble and wants me to be there quickly.
Minhwan: Ah, right, that was on Chuseok last year.
Seunghyun: I said "What kind of trouble" and he told me to look for it online, saying that the news is out and it is a big matter.
Hongki: That was during winter when Jonghun and I went to the skiing resort, not Chuseok.
Minhwan, Seunghyun & Jaejin: Ahh, yes.
Minhwan: The break was about 3 days 2 nights. At that time, we really thought what Hongki hyung had joked about was real.
Hongki: After I finished my schedule, Jonghun and I went to the ski resort at night. We were too bored so we played a joke on them. I mass sent them SMS and Jaejin was at the hostel because of exams, university exams.
Jaejin: Yes, was practising bass at that time.
Hongki: I started the joke, saying "I appeared on the internet with immediate news and I feel that it is necessary to have everyone gathered at the office". They called me almost instantly, asking whether it is true. Minhwan said "I'm at home, heading out already, heading out already". I laughed out after awhile and my laughter was discovered as Jonghun was talking on the phone. Jaejin also went to search on the internet immediately and even said "Hyung, there wasn't any news".
Jaejin: I had my computer with me at that time so I went to search for it on the internet.
Seunghyun: I even asked my dad, "Dad, I think I have to go back for awhile. Something just happened to Hongki hyung". Then, my dad said why did this happen, Hongki got into trouble again.
Hongki: What 'again', why did I see 'again'.
There are no special holidays, so rare breaks allows one to have some personal time. Still have to train on eves of special holidays
Jonghun: This time, I heard that we are going to Taiwan during Christmas.
Seunghyun: Taiwan is very good, not cold too.
Jaejin: CNBLUE is also working, so I don't feel lonely anymore. (laughs)
Jonghun: Should be able to have some fun in Taiwan.
Seunghyun: Would be able to celebrate Christmas warmly in Taiwan.
A special holiday that is meaningful becomes nothing special to many people. But after becoming an artiste, this forgotten day becomes one of the most important things.
Hongki: If artists wants to gather and organize a party on Christmas, it's impossible to control each other's schedule, even if it was confirmed on the eve. So it would have to start later if we want.There were also situations whereby appointments, that were already fixed, had to be cancelled because problems arose from others' schedules. But it is also very weird if you are the only one without any schedule. After 'You're Beautiful' ended, Jang Geun Suk hyung had solo overseas activities and Korea fanmeeting. But he had no activities and works for close to a year, so everyday he would say "Hey, play with me" ^^.
You all have been in this industry for 3 years, should have already been accustomed to this entertainment industry. So now, are there any areas which you still feel hard?
Hongki: Waking up in the morning, it is very tiring especially when the schedule is full.
Are there any areas in this entertainment industry whereby you feel that it's more hard to handle? Any examples?
Hongki: Last time I felt that it was hard to face our sunbaes. But our age have increased and there are many sunbaes and hoobaes now, hence, they will approach and talk to us first. There are also many private gatherings with hyungs. Even now, at the broadcast station, I'm very familiar with those people already. So I feel that it is more comfortable.
Then, how do you feel after seeing your hoobaes?
Jonghun: Very cute.
Minhwan: There are some who are similar to sunbaes and some who are already very good. There are also some who feels like small kids and everybody is very young. I was called the maknae wherever I went When I debuted. I was treated very well, because I was said to be the maknae in the singers industry. ^^ Teacher would say "Aigoo, maknae" each time he sees me and treats me very good. I feel it is very magical that there are so many young people now.
Will you all go into others' resting rooms to socialise in midst of activities?
Minhwan: Because there are people we know.
Hongki: We will go because TRAX hyungs' resting room are often beside ours.
Minhwan: We will go and listen to them playing guitars.
Hongki: But basically, we just stone in the resting room.
Are there any funny occurences during the Japan activities? Be it among members or during activities.
Minhwan: Bus Tour. In Japan, bands will do 'Zepp Tour' and the roads in Japan are very long. Hence, (we) will need to spend a lot of time in the bus and each time, it is about 9 to 10 hours.
Jaejin: Foreign famous singers' buses are all modified. However, we sat and spent 10 hours in those common bus.
FT's curled up body ^^
Jaejin: The bus is very nice, its appearance is something that the modified bus cannot compete with. But the interior... (laughs)
Seunghyun: At the seat of a Korea bus, I can rest my legs on one side of the seat. It was also the same during the Bus Tour in Japan. Because it was really very tiring, tired until it's hard to sleep.
Minhwan: Because the journey is very long, I listened finished to all the songs that I've never heard before in my mp3.
Seunghyun: Also, each time we stop to rest at a place, we will film those videos that are shown during concerts. They will film us cleaning up at the resting place, wearing wigs and hats there. Japan is already very hot and wearing like that to film makes it even hotter.
Jonghun: Our endurance level seems to have increased because of this. Enduring tiring things, moving again after a performance, feel that we have become more mature just like this? I feel that we've grown up, because we had done tough things.
Jaejin: There are also delicious things to eat. I feel that it's great when we go to a place, we have to eat the specialty food there. Have you ever tried to eat cow's tongue?
Minhwan: In Japan, it's called 'q-tan'. It is a small, barbequed food, which resembles pork. Its thickness is the same as sliced ham.
Hongki: Japanese find it very delicious.
Jaejin: But it just tastes like ham.
Seunghyun: It feels like kissing with a cow.
So, in total, how long did you all sit in the bus?
Hongki: Maximum 10 hours each time? In total, it's 20+ hours, not yet 30 hours. I was really dying.
Seunghyun: Over there, the President would assign lines for us to say on stage before we reach our destination. The lines have to be memorized immediately if there's a concert the next day. As there's a concert tommorrow, hence the lines have to be memorized immediately in the bus and not memorizing it only in the morning. Everyone feels very troubled, but (we) still have to memorize because it would be very tiring the next day.
What did you all do in the resting/waiting rooms of music programs?
Jonghun: Will sleep when tired, will play guitar, play games. Have been playing frequently because I got an iPad recently.
