CNBLUE and FTISLAND will soon be expanding their music career in UK, the country considered as the world’s ‘home of bands’CNBLUE and FTISLAND are preparing a concert in UK and France early next year. As most music enthusiasts acknowledge, UK is the home of band music having cultivated world-class acts such as The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Oasis, Blur and Muse. Since the recent wave of K-pop is focused on dance music, it will be meaningful that bands, such as CNBLUE and FTISLAND,  are now also expanding into the European music market.

This international opportunity is realized through ‘M-Live’ a branded concert produced by CJ E&M. This branded concert will bring solo and joint concerts by Korean artists overseas,  engaging them in the international market actively.

Manager Ahn Seck Jun of CJ E&M stated that “ we plan to introduce not only idol bands but also various genre bands to Europe and other countries”

CEO Han Sung Ho, of FNC, management agency of CNBLUE and FTISLAND showed his confidence “ Although there is pressure to extend our career overseas, right into the home of band music, on the other hand, I actually did expect this could happen. When I look at our band seniors (Editor’s Note: Those who had been in band music ahead of CNBLUE and FTISLAND), I am confident that Korean band music is not at all behind the world-class standard.

CJ E&M held a press conference for ‘M-Live’ at M-pop, Times Square in Yongdeungpo, Seoul on November 2, with six music entertainment companies participating: Cube Entertainment (G.NA, B2ST, 4MINUTE), Star Empire (Z:EA, Jewelry), Amoeba Culture (Dynamic Duo), FNC Music (CNBLUE, FTISLAND), Jungle Entertainment (Drunken Tiger, Leessang) and J-Tune Entertainment (MBLAQ).

I'm surprised that both groups are going to Europe (well France & U.K.) first before the U.S. Just saying. I guess they are due for a N. American tour.

I know Tiger JK, Leesang & others will be coming to L.A., but I don't think I could make it that night. :(

Thanks a lot though. ^^

Wish I was in Europe.

They should come to America though. They probably have more mainstream success that idol groups. Well, CN Blue maybe, Yonghwa english is more understandable than Hongki (everyone I've played it for too loves it and has asked to borrow my cds)

Best news since Imma Young boy.

They'll get eaten alive by the UK press or branded as the next One Direction or someshit but they've got it. They've got catchy music and a unique pop sound, imo they can make it if they actually release stuff. And I'll be there suppourting them all the way.

I have the feeling they would be popular in UK and Denmark while other Europe is looking at them like wtf.

I hope they're successful though. They deserve it. Do have concerts closer than in UK though, I can't afford flying there for concerts okthxbye

Yes UK! I don't care if I'm the only person going, as long as they don't charge £50, I'm there.

Already pissed off my student purse can't handle United Cube with concert and train tickets, let alone accommodation ;_;
