FTISLAND、「The Album ‘To Cry, To Laugh, and To Sing’」Interview
NWU FTISLAND is the long awaited 6th album that will be released on April 6. We heard about this album that contains songs that are all written by the members, and except for the lead music, are also all self-composed.
─ First of all, could you please explain the meaning of the album title『N.W.U』, and whose idea is that?
Choi Jonghoon
Jonghoon: Its mine! Everyone’s opinion is put together into it. “I dont know anything like that” or “What does that mean” or “What is that” I want people to think like that. It has been planned that we will ask our fans to participate in “What do you think NWU is?”, they came up with a lot of things, it was fun. It has the meaning of N = Naite (to cry), W = Waratte (to laugh), U = Utatte (to sing). Human’s emotions are all connected to a song, therefore we bring these emotions to a song to sing.
─ It has a beautiful meaning. This album’s title track, “You Dont Know Who I Am” is written by Hongki-san. The feeling drawn from the song is that of a boy that falls in love with a girl. Its a spring-like, refreshing song.
Hongki: Isnt that so? When I wrote the song, I had a feeling “I want to love~~”. Just like a magic, the song ended up bringing such a feeling too.
─ But Hongki-san is nicely acknowledged with people from all over the world enviably wanting to love you. So, the problem is with you, isnt it? (laughs)
