Fangirls shatter a glass door at Taiwan airport, Hongki apparently smokes

[littlefuji.livejournal.com]

Korean Idol Band FTIsland arrived at Taiwan last noon and attended Zhong Shi's New Year's Eve special recording. They attracted about 200 plus fans to the airport and fetch them. The airport's glass entrance door broke into pieces due to the large crowd. However fans were ignorant about glass pieces on their shoulders and continued chasing the boys. Luckily, yesterday's weather was cold and fans had extra outerwear on which prevented them from getting injured.



FT Island's youngest member Song Seunghyun was touched because of the fans' passion. Lee Hongki said "Whenever he comes Taiwan, he feels like he's home. If he has the money, he can buy a house in Taiwan!" Leader Choi Jonghun said "Feels like coming Taiwan to shoot a idol drama and challenges himself by speaking Chinese" When asked about the Chinese word which gave them the hardest impression, Lee Hongki answered immediately in Chinese: "Bastard" and said "When learning new languages, it always starts by cursing!" The more he said, the more excited he got and accidentally dropped his cigar box, revealing his smoker identity.

Korea also has the tradition of giving red packets and they are still at the age of receiving red packets. Lee Hongki says "We will usually receive 30,000 Won (about 777 Taiwan Dollar), sometimes we will save or catch a movie." Yesterday was their first time attending a new-year related recording overseas. They sang Love Love Love and 4 more hits.

Hongki, don't ruin your health (and esp voice)

[annhh.livejournal.com]

wow good for him, are you sure he quit?

[madelyn93.livejournal.com]

well hongki does smoke.

[analapana83.livejournal.com]

Ay Hongki, you shouldn't do dat.

[noxmonde.livejournal.com]

as long as he remains awesome, i won't complain.

[notochrasy.livejournal.com]

Jonghun smokes

Not surprised about Hongki really, smoking is a big part of Korean (actually, asian) culture, especially for men.


...it just makes it a bit amusing everytime they come out with an anti-smoking song :D

[littlefuji.livejournal.com]

Jonghun smokes too?! DDDD:

Idl it though, idl it at all. It's rather common in college here too, but it remains a stupid trend to me. u__u

That's TOP. He's special lmao

[freed-misery.livejournal.com]

Woah, Primadonnas O_O

Also that's probably not the smartest thing to do Hongki bb, since it's not only bad for your health but ruins one's voice and it's kind of his livelyhood.

[gyuri.livejournal.com]

TOP and GD smoke according to inside sources
i.e my friend who's brother is friends with them.

[sparrowxx.livejournal.com]

That photo of them, is just unflattering.

[littlefuji.livejournal.com]

It was in the article. I shall ferret out another pleasant-er one though~

[shinyflex.livejournal.com]

In b4 this turning into a Hongki smokes post, lol

[notochrasy.livejournal.com]

pffffffffffft. too late, it started as a Hongki smokes post lol.

[fuuism.livejournal.com]

lmao

[littlefuji.livejournal.com]

It's the fish-eye lens D:

[tothechangmin.livejournal.com]

lmao the picture. i swear apple daily purposely takes the most unflattering picture they can and then sharpen the photo till no end

[neitoperhonen.livejournal.com]

Well I didn't thin it was an unknown thing that Hongki smokes..

But then again, I think smokers have amazing voices. I like the raspy, deep voice of a smoker (and whisky drinkers too but shh about that).

Might not be that healthy but meh, his voice won't die from it, it just gets better

[ainstrange.livejournal.com]

haha this is kinda true. my friends who sing, half of them actually smoke. nd their voices are awesome.

[fuuism.livejournal.com]

The fans' passion should also pay for the glass it broke.

[vh4n.livejournal.com]

this comment lol

[hiroi-wonnie.livejournal.com]

That explains some high note failures.
And also, seriously primmadonas?

[2ndface.livejournal.com]

I thought people knew Hongki and Jonghoon smoked, since long ago?
And apparetly some others in the same company smoke too.

[cher-ex3.livejournal.com]

MTE.

[orenmanida.livejournal.com]

that doesn't really surprise me, sad to say. =/ i mean, it's his life and his choice and i'm not gonna judge him for it, but i wonder how it'll affect his vocals in the long run. ngl, sometimes smokers have a nice tone to their voices... but overall it's not really the healthiest choice.

anyway i'm more shocked by the fans. idk much about primadonnas, but seriously, how can fans be so batshit crazy. is it just up to the airport to take care of the damages? i wonder if airport personnel ever groan to themselves when they know certain idols are in because their crazy fans will follow.

also, these boys and their ridiculously skinny legs are too much. i don't even think i've ever worn jeans as tight as most men in kpop.

/: shawols broke down a glass door in the shopping mall when shinee came for an autograph session. thank goodness i didn't go lol.

"I cant imagine a cigarette is Yoseob's mouth lmfao"

this lol
I can see DJ or Junhyung. But Yoseob... Well he ha abs so why not

[anconeous.livejournal.com]

Not a bit shocked that Hongki (and apparently Jonghun) smoke. They hang around with Heechul of all people, really. He should at least cut back on the cigs though. I don't want his voice to be ruined.

[simplyobessed.livejournal.com]

...But Heechul quit smoking wayy before they even started hangin out wit him. Im not surprised cause its Korea, almost everyone there smokes so..

[honeebs.livejournal.com]

~babe you need all the help you can get...I'm just saying.
ahh oh well no biggy really.

[karavanuemura.livejournal.com]

He should not. Aww, well whenever I'll learn NEW language too, it MUST start on cursing. LOL
