#50: C.N.BLUE on KBS COOL FM 5th Feb and more

Their appearance on KBS Cool FM with Hong Jin Kyung dj on the 5th of Feb.


Singing Love Revolution



Yong Hwa looked quite breathless throughout, but we can't blame him. He has high notes and ended singing throughout the song! And woah, his voice is daebak! Strong and steady! Listen to his last note, it's, imba! While he was holding that note, everyone seemed to be holding their breaths and when Yonghwa did it and finished, everyone was like, "thank god~"! lol.

And Jungshin's rap~! (=D) On the side note, Yonghwa looks really short amongst his members.


Singing Drive




For Drive, he finally fixed his pronounciation for the chorus, he used to sing "WhateverS tomorrow brings..." but he fixed it to "Whatever tomorrow brings.." If i didnt know any better, i'd think he was a native english speaker!


Also, they sent a message to Son Hoyoung and G.O.D's Kim Tae Woo for their "Friends" Concert in Seattle...




Seem like they are very respectful towards their sunbaes!

AND ANYWAY, 50TH POST!
50TH POST CHU KA HAM NI DA!

#49: More progressions with I'm A Loner (not) plagiarism issue

It has been some time before we heard any news on it, a big relief for fans, because at least no news means no bad news.

Just yesterday, 5th Feb, there has been some information from FNC side.

“We are worried regarding the widespeard of this plagiarism suspicion controversy. We have been quite until now to gather information, make internal decisions, and prepare for legal actions.”

“First, we want to ask everyone not to use the term ‘plagiarism’ until it is proven in the court that there is plagiarism involved. We believe this problem is only limited to the creators/writers of two songs, which C.N.BLUE had no involvement. But it feels like the media is fabricating the problem as if the problem has direct association with C.N.BLUE. Currently, creators of the song I’m a Loner are in the process of legal actions on this.”

“We are in the process of preparing for legal actions on this matter also. We had met with creators of YNot’s Blue Bird and told them that we will file for legal actions against them when their song is not found as plagiarized. Also, there could have been misunderstanding in what our president had stated regarding indie bands. We have utmost respect for indie bands and if we have caused any misunderstanding, we would like to apoligize.”

“We hope the media play should stop. We tried our best to develop people with utmost talent and love for music. We would like to apologize for any misunderstandings that we have caused.”

Hopefully, light will shine on C.N.BLUE and I'm A Loner soon and all tides will reside for this entire issue.

At the same time, there are gossips on the net saying that, Bluetory (the name of their mini album), is actually "Blue Bird" (the song by Ynot that is involved in this issue).

According to the netizens, "tory" actually means "bird" in Japanese so that explains their guess.

FNC Music replied that the album title ‘Bluetory’ was purely made up by the president of the company and does not have any other meaning.

"Blue" represents C.N.BLUE and "tory" is a Korean word which stands for the “music specialty that each area has” and so, "Bluetory" in general means that "C.N.Blue will be showing their own color in the music industry.”

Even though the gossip does make sense and it is strangely coincidental, i hardly think that there is any connections between the two bands and the two songs.

So whatever it is, netizens should stop creating problems out of nothing.
The entire plagiarism issue was started out by them, anyway.

#48: C.N.BLUE LIKE NOONAS?

Recently, bnt news has reported about all members of C.N.BLUE liking noonas (older females). This will make all the young fan girls, including myself, extremely sad!

The report:

The C.N.Blue members, who are sweeping the charts in less than 2 weeks of their debut, stated that they all prefer older women.

On 2nd February at 12pm, on Choi HwaJung’s Power Time radio, the DJ asked them if they are more attracted to older or younger women to find out their personal styles, and all the members replied, “older women.”

Lee JungShin stated, “People who are younger than m I think won’t be able to lead me, so I’m a bit scared about that.” Lee JongHyun replied, “Maybe it’s because all the women I have dated until now was older, I think my ideal girl is someone sophisticated that I lean on to.”

Kang MinHyuk said, “I like noonas because I have a sister and since I don’t have that much money, I like noonas that buys me yummy things.” The leader Jung YongHwa stated, “Actually I don’t really mind older or yonger women, but I will choose older women for our teamwork.”

For the “love at first sight” types, the CN Blue members choose a feminine style, but Jung YongHwa said that he preferred, “feminine, but still someone who I can feel the cuteness,” and Lee JungShin said, “feminine, but still having that made up mind.”

Also, on this radio show, CN Blue members sang the parody versions of the song ‘I’m a Loner’ winning a loud applause from the audience. In addition, the members chose Lee JongHyun as the most good looking and the man that seemed to have watched the most erotic films. Before the show, the members even took selcas and posted it up on the homepage and didn’t forget to prepare their signed CDs for their listeners.

Younger girls can be mature, feminine, cute, can buy good food and can be reliable too! But anyway, why do these boys want to lean on girls? I though it should be the other way round?

And, it is totally unbelievable that Jong Hyun is seen as the one who watches most R-rated films because he has such a good boy image and he is shy!

Whatever it is, i am sure C.N.BLUE won't turn down younger girls if they really like them. They are too busy to date right now, anyway :)

#45: Random Updates, 4 Feb - Includes ELLE GIRL Interview, Radio Interview Summary

C.N.BLUE on ETN NEWS, 3rd Feb, Wed




Yong Hwa looking really charming on HD Performance





look at his watery eyes, omg *faints*



ELLE GIRL Interview

see post #7 for the photos!

We will say the truth. The interest on C.N Blue started from Jung YongHwa. The fantasy drama created by the Hong Sisters, ‘You’re Beautiful’ didn’t get nearly close to the view ratings for IRIS, but still, in many ways; this drama had its own specialties. One of it being that the drama carried the face of the new star, Jung YongHwa.

Jung YongHwa starred as the guitarist in the popular band A.N.JELL. Whenever the female lead, MiNyu, was stuck in a situation, he played the role of the fantasy character that would come and save her without any words, gaining the interest of many. But later you could find out that he was the leader for the soon to debut band, C.N Blue. The rumors that they were a band that already had 2 albums out and also those they were highly skilled had interested many. What? They were going to stand as the band group in a place dominated by ‘entertaining’ idol groups? This was the reason that we invited these 4 guys despite of their practice for their upcoming showcase.

Jung YongHwa, Lee JongHyun, Kang MinHyuk, Lee JungShin. The C.N Blue members that dominated the set were first of all, very tall. The long legs and arms and the good looking faces wasn’t a band, but more like flower boy idols. No, if you compared their faces to idols we met so far, their visual appearance belonged in a higher level. The members greet us in a nervous and excited faces. The person leading the mood was oldest, and the leader, Jung YongHwa.

The filming started first with his solo cuts. As if acting helped him to get accustomed to the camera, he stated to pose very comfortably. He laughs and jokes around with the staff members and smiles a lot because he doesn’t like awkward moods. He seems like the guy who loves people and disregards the flaws of a person.

Next up to the camera was Lee JongHyun. He was the same BuSan person like YongHwa, and he even considers YongHwa as a brother. When he smiles, he looks like ‘Matimoto Joon’ (a Japanese actor). However, he had the manly side that answered every question clean, and dry. With the face similar to a Japanese actor and the quietness of a man from Kyung SanDo, he was interesting. The 91-ers that entered together, Kang MinHyuk and Lee JungShin were still very shy. Being their first photo shoot, the nervousness was still there, but they focus hard on the words of the photographer. From a glance you can tell that they were the kind dongsaengs that used formal tones to their hyungs. Kang MinHyuk had the surprising formal adult side to him and the serious Lee JungShin turns out to be the happy, fun kid that spreads happiness on to the set.

Due to the serious and sincere models, the filming continued on without a problem and the photographer finally showed the okay sign. Weren’t they too serious and quiet for new stars to be debuting soon? We even questioned if they were the same guys with so much charisma on the Live Japan House shows. However these were the guys determined the let the public know of band music where everything is set on the idol music. If we borrowed the words of MiSil, they were the guys dreamed of an ‘overly high blue’ dream. It could be their secret weapon that they will show everything with their skills. Then the interview started with C.N Blue, who was waiting in the start line quietly in the midst of all the screaming.

[EG] How did the four of you guys end up meeting each other?
YongHwa: We were all fans of music and interested in bands. In detail, we were chosen by the casting director and through an audition, we ended up getting into FNC Music. I was first an internet ullzzang (laughs), and the casting director came down to BuSan after seeing my picture in an ullzzang site.
JongHyun: I found out about this later, but that same casting director met with me after meeting with YongHwa hyung. I liked singing since I was little, and since I was learning music then, I was really happy to get that chance.
YongHwa: The three of us without JungShin and a lot of other people went to that audition. Since JongHyun was also from BuSan, we connected as soon as we met, and MinHyuk caught my eyes because he was dressed in his school uniform. You know, because most of the people who come to auditions dressed really nicely.
MinHyuk: On that day the hyungs sang really well. I thought I was going to be eliminated. We got to know each other then and even called each other. We asked each other, “Did you get contacted?” But the funny thing is, the 3 of us were accepted.
JungShin: Because of my brother who is a music maniac, I was influenced and I always had an MP3 in my ears. In high school I fell in love with photography, and when I was out in HongDae for a photo shoot, I was contacted by the casting director. In the beginning of C.N Blue, one first left because of personal issues so I just ended up joining naturally. I was really nervous, but the hyungs and the same age MinHyuk took care of me well.

[EG] Unlike others, you guys start out as an indie band in Japan
YongHwa: It wasn’t something formal that we went to Japan to be in a band, but we went to Japan to study where the idea of a band is more recognized. It was the idea of our company, but we were interested because it was a chance for us to improve on our skills.
JongHyun: Skills are skills, but we saw and listened to a lot. And at first none of us could speak Japanese. But in order to survive out there we needed to learn Japanese. By the end, we ended up learning the simple conversations without a problem.

[EG] If you guys can choose any memorable episodes in Japan?
YongHwa: There are so many. At one point we even had a robber come into our place, but that person didn’t steal anything, but just took a shower there. We didn’t have anything he could take anyway.
MinHyuk: More than anything, our performances on the streets were memorable. As many of you know, in Tokyo, the transportation fees are expensive. In the summer we would have to carry our guitar, drums, and lamps all by ourselves.
JongHyun: At one point we were taken to the police station during our performance. As if we were the president, we were guarded by the police on the way there. It was the biggest police station in Harajuku, but the place was so nice like a café.
YongHwa: I was so serious, but these guys were taking pictures and joking around with the police officers. (LOL)

[EG] Didn’t you guys ever think “Why are we doing this in Japan?”
JongHyun: Never. Since it was what we liked to do, we enjoyed it.
YongHwa: We thought that it was hard, but we never wanted to quit. We needed to put in our efforts to gain skills, and without the skills, we wouldn’t have even been recognized.

[EG] YongHwa first became an actor by participating in the drama, “You’re Beautiful”
YongHwa: I came on the plane to Korea and did the audition. I never had acted before, but the fact that I was an actual guitarist in a band earned me some points. But the director or the writers never told me why they chose me.

[EG] It shouldn’t be easy acting for the first time.
YongHwa: Jang GeunSuk, Park ShinHye, Lee HongKi were all pros since they were young, and I thought to myself, “Wasn’t I just a raw amateur?” I never rested from the 1st to the 16th episodes. So aside from the sleeping I took the scripts anywhere with me and memorized the lines. Because the role of Kang ShinWoo is already handsome, I think that is why the public view it so well.
MinHyuk: In real life, he is a really fun hyung, but I was surprised seeing him act on TV. Of course the funny hyung was nice too.
JungShin: We called him often monitoring his drama. “Hyung, we are enjoying this. But, for us to see it is a bit embarrassing.”

[EG] Since you already came in the entertainment world, you should have been less nervous
YongHwa: Drama or other programs, I’m nervous everyday about my schedule. And since I have my C.N Blue members with me, I’m really full. The solo activities are what Jung YongHwa showed, but now I will put in my all to show C.N Blue.
JongHyun: Hyung taught us a lot of tips. Yesterday he told us what to do for today.
YongHwa: I’m a newbie too, but I started first. In order to show more of that pro side, I told them let’s show our best. I’m the leader, but there is nothing I have to be mad about. We all match each other well.

[EG] JongHyun has an image that matches the band well
JongHyun: Like a guitar maniac? Haha. Before I used to listen to R&B and HipHop. Getting into a band made me research more about bands, and I started falling in love with band music. I really want to meet the Japanese band “Bump of Chicken”

[EG] In the teaser that was released, you had that tough image
JongHyun: I like that concept. Every day I try to act more manly. I need to focus on my manly side more if I want to appear that way.
YongHwa: JongHyun doesn’t have that fiery personality because he is a BuSan man, but he doesn’t get really mad.
JongHyun: I’m the only O type blood while the other members have A type blood. When the three of them get mad at each other, I’m the one who is laughing. Especially, YongHwa hyung is a Triple A blood type (meaning that he gets mad often) (LOL)

[EG] MinHyuk looks like a naïve student. We can’t imagine him playing the drums.
MinHyuk: When people first see me, they would think I am awkward and boring. But since young, I loved doing active sports. I bet I can do better in Sports like soccer, baseball, basketball than my members. I’m pretty sure I could show my powerful drummer sides.
YongHwa: MinHyuk has the clean personality so he cleans the room in Japan. He is nice to everyone around him and he didn’t change at all from the time I first met him. (Minhyuk's is known as CNBlue's mother, btw)

[EG] He seems quiet, but very popular around girls
YongHwa: That is right. I always talk a lot around girls, but when MinHyuk is quiet; all the girls are like “he is so cute!” Are you guys that happy just looking at him?

[EG] JungShin in the youngest in the team, but is the tallest
JungShin: When I was a freshman in high school I was stressed out because I was so small. After entering high school, I grew 10cm every year and now, I am above 187cm. They said that my growth hormone is still active. The doctor told me that if I want to stop growing, stop playing sports and just play my bass. (laughs) (So tall ._.)

[EG] We also heard that you are very greedy when it comes to clothes
JungShin: It happens to me and YongHwa. When we get into our dorms and do online shopping, we ask each other, “How does this look?” When I lay down to sleep, I think of what shirts and pants to wear tomorrow.

[EG] You seemed really serious, but after talking for a while you seem a bit 4-D
JungShin: Since I tend to stay away from strangers, people tell me that I seem scary. But once I get to know someone, I’m really friendly and nice to them.
YongHwa: JungShin’s world is really different. When you are with him, you end up feeling happy too. JungShin came in late, but we are happy to have a skilled rapper and bass player.

[EG] On January 14th, the Bluetory album is released. What kind of songs are in it and which songs do you recommend?
YongHwa: If you mention band in Korea, most people think of rock. We are putting the alternative rock feel, with ballad, hiphop, and rap. There are 5 songs on our mini album. The title song, “I’m A Loner,” the song I contributed on the lyrics, “Y, Why,” and songs like “Now or Never” that we translated into Korean. We think it is an album that anyone can enjoy without and heavy feelings.

[EG] The thing that you guys are focused on the most, is it the showcase?
YongHwa: We are practicing day and night. I think we don’t have enough songs though. We are really nervous since this will be our first performance. I also went around telling everyone when I was in Korea first, so I’m feeling anxious. But I know that we will do well.

[EG] Don’t you guys want to dance and show extravagant performance like the other guys around your age?
YongHwa: The songs aren’t songs that you can simply dance to and the bigger problem is that, dancing is like rat poison for us. (laughs) We will become the band that shines the most when we have our instruments. If we wanted to be dancers, we wouldn’t have gone to a band company in the first place.

[EG] The moment you guys have been dreaming of is in front of your eyes, what do you guys each want?
MinHyuk: I wish that our first step will be a good one. Too plain for you? That is all I can think of
JungShin: That our album will be widely known and loved by many. Being more greedy, I want win the newcomer award at the awards this year
JongHyun: It will be great to get C.N Blue loved, but I hope that people will enjoy rock music more. It will be better if Korean band industry can improve because of us and think comfortably of us. We will make stages so that all of us can jump around and play.
YongHwa: From the start we won’t be able to show all of our music, and all of our sides. Step by step we will work on it. Until we become the grandpa band.

Radio Interview Summary

As you know, CNBLUE did many radio shows. I can't even count how many they were.
I learned a lot about them. Let me summarize it.

Yong Hwa went to ski resort with parents and friends, took some pictures.
He posted some of them at his mini hompy. Some random people copied them to famous Uljjang(handsome face) cafe (=Best Nine)
He was chosen as Uljjang, became so famous with those ski photos.
Many casting managers and random visitors came to school to see him.
One day he saw audition ad of FNC, so he came to Seoul to take audition.
He has learned guitar for many years, and liked to sing, already skilled in singing and guitar.

Jong Hyun has similar experience, he took pictures with his friend's baby sister.
His friend posted it to Uljjang cafe (Best Nine too). He was selected as Uljjang.
One day, FNC casting manager left a message at his mini hompy saying to come to take audition.
He came to Seoul to take audition, and met Yong Hwa at Seoul station for the first time.
He was learning guitar and vocal at pop music institute already, enough to take audition.

Myn Hyuk was learning piano and flute, he was much interested in music.
He once had received a namecard from FNC casting manager in front of his high school.
He didn't trust that person, just ignored it.
But some days later, he saw FTisland at TV and found their company FNC was the same company that gave him the namecard.
So he went to FNC and took audition.

These 3 people took audition on the same day. There were many many applicants, but only these 3 people passed.
That's how CNBLUE was made. It was early of year 2007.
Since that day, Yong Hwa and Jong Hyun have lived together. It's been 3 years already.

Jung Shin was studying photography, he went to Hongdae area to take picture on the street.
It was his first day there. FNC practice room was in Hongdae.
He was found by the casting manager of FNC, and was suggested to take audition.
He was not sure about the company. Then he accidently met Min Hyuk at English institute in Ilsan, near home.
He heard Min Hyuk was already the trainee of FNC, then Jung Shin could trust FNC and decided to take audition.

Yong Hwa and Jung Shin have elder brother, Jong Hyun and Min Hyuk have elder sister.
All are the youngest at their family.

They talked much about their Japan life.
Their company gave them the housing money only, so their daily allowence was to be made by themselves.
One day, after their evening live, they came back home, they found they have no key.
At that time they were so hungry and tired, had been starved for 2 days (because they don't have money for food)
just finished the concert. Since they had no car, they were bringing heavy instruments on their hands.
So brave Min Hyuk went up to the rooftop, then jumped into the balcony of their 5th floor house.
Min Hyuk said, at that time he was so hungry, couldn't think much.

When they had street live in Harajuku, they didn't take the subway, because the subway fee was too expensive for them.
They just moved by walking bringing all musical instuments and amp on the cart.
They said it was too hot, they were exhausted and almost fainted at one summer day.
On their first street live, 3 kids were their only audience. They distributed the invitation to their live house performance.
But on their first live house concert, the audience was just 3.
Since they were teenagers, they couldn't perform after 8pm.
On their last club live in Japan on Dec.28.2009, the audience was more than 300. They were so happy and felt accomplished.
Jong Hyun was a Judo player, he had bigger body before. He lost 10 kg after 1 year of Japan life.

When they were asked what was the biggest change after they made debut, they answered that they have a car now, there is no need to bring musical instuments by walking anymore.

It was impressive that they are so innocent.
Min Hyuk was surprised to be asked what his favorite liquor is, They have never drank these days, even Yong Hwa.
Min Hyuk loves fruits, while Jung Shin likes salad. Yong Hwa likes meat, Jong Hyun likes spicy food.
They have not had mobile phone for 1 year. Their only route to the outside world is computer.
Every night when they come home, each members go into their room and turn on their PC, visits all fan sites, read all posts.

When they got number one at music bank. All said they couldn't feel anything, all were empty brained.
After they came down from stage, first they called to their parents. (Since they had no cell phone, they had to make calls)
Yong Hwa said that after he talked with his parents, he felt that he did something great.
Min Hyuk's parents said to Min Hyuk, "You should have shown to fans that you were happy! You guys were too calm."
Jong Hyun said that his father cried to take his call. He was deeply moved but he didn't cry.

#43: CNBLUE LIVE STREET PERFORMANCE IN KOREA

C.N.Blue performed on the streets of Korea!
Can you imagine (if you are a korean) bumping into them on the streets while heading somewhere to shop?

Well, we ain't lucky enough to live in Korea, but many are! There were many onlookers and apparently, the management only announced the location at about 1 hr before their performance on the website because they meant the performances for passerbys rather than fans (if they announce any earlier, i bet the crowd will be crazayyyyyy and C.N.Blue will be mobbed!).

They wanted to have live street performances because they had about over 100 in Japan, but all without Jung Shin (he only joined the group when they debut in Korea). Yong Hwa expressed that they want to have the same experience with Jung Shin, hence the arrangement for this.

Also, this is only the FIRST street performance they had, and it's themed "BURNING". There should be 3 more, each themed "LOVELY", "UNTOUCHABLE" and "EMOTIONAL" on the random streets of Korea!

How i wish i could be there too! omo...

Here is one fan account of it!

I went to guerrilla (street) concert today (Feb.04) to Hongdae area.
Luckly I was near there at that time so I could go. It was a real guerrilla concert!
It was announced on official website at 2:14pm. And the concert was from 3pm.
I ran there as soon as I heard it, but I arrived there about 3:25pm, I could see only 1 song.
That's OK, anyway I could see CNB members and huge musical instruments & equipments. It was full of a truck.
They sang all 5 songs and 'I am loner' one more time.
It was very very cold today but they looked so happy and energetic.
It seemed live performance is a source of their energy.

It was a first guerrilla concert, named 'Burning'. All were planned by Jong Hyun, a concpet, time and place.
There will be Lovely, Untouchable and Emotional street concert.
The date and place will not be announced till just before the concert.
Because it's not for fans, but random people on the street.
Fans are guessing which place will be suit for 'Lovely', a cute amusement park or a quiet palace.

Yong Hwa said it will be aired through MNET TV.
After concert, they moved to a cafe, seemed they did a photo shooting for fashion magazine.
The wall was all glass, we could see them taking pictures. They waved to fans sometimes.

#41: Jong Hyun's Mistake on Inkigayo on 31 Jan

If you guys have watched C.N.BLUE's special stage on Inkigayo with Kim Jang Hoon (see post #32), you would have noticed Jong Hyun's mistake. It was obvious when he just started smiling after he stopped his singing awkwardly for 2 times at the same parts.

There were some negative comments about it, but Kim Jang Hoon was rather positive and encouraging towards C.N.BLUE as he expresses his feeling towards them on his minihompy.

His entry titled: “My Memory with CNBLUE”

“When I said I was going on Inkigayo, everyone laughed at me. They said that I would not fit the teen image of the show.
On that especially exciting day, I was able to perform with the rookie band, CNBLUE. It was truly a very fun and fresh memory. There are criticisms regarding Jong Hyun’s mistake. I personally thought they were very talented and simply cute.
They already proved their talent, so we should just let this go as a rookie mistake. Trust me, when they become more experienced, they will miss that kind of ‘nervous’ feeling.
He seemed surprised when I suddenly approached him… Hmm.. I apologize for my rather scary looking countenance!
I asked them, ‘What do you want to do in the future…?’ and they answered that they wanted to do lots of performances. I really liked their honest eyes. I hope that, no matter where they are, what they are doing, they will always be honest and diligent. I hope they reach the top.”

After the performance that night, Jong Hyun said, “I was so nervous because we were sharing the stage with such a super senior in the music industry, and so when he approached me, I went blank.”

Since he did such a cute smile to pass off his mistake, and he has a rather shy personality, this mistake is really nothing in the eyes of fans and audience, right? :)

#40: Yong Hwa's Appearance on Strong Heart 2nd Feb

Yong Hwa appeared on Strong Heart yesterday (2nd Feb) night at 11pm.
The full subbed episode is not up yet, but one funny cut of him is out.




In the show, You're Beautiful, Shinwoo (Yong Hwa) appeared as a guardian angel for Go Mi Nam (Park Shin Hye) and there was this scene that he was trying to rescue her from the sticky situation in a boys toilet.

His line was "I can't wash up if you are in here" (so that she has a reason to leave the toilet), but in the parody, he did it meanly to the gagwoman "Please go and wash up" (in the tone that she is wasting his time).
lol.

Please wait for the full subbed version to be up!

All credits for videos goes to NulSaRangHaeS2.

#33: Im A Loner Plagiarism, bad progress

After an entire good week for C.N.BLUE, winning awards on Musicbank and Inkigayo, bad news arrived yet again for them.

When we thought that the plagiarism issue has died down, Ynot seems to be upset with the success of I'm a Loner and chose this timing to announce officially that they will take legal action against I’m a Loner’s composer & songwriter Kim Do Hoon and Lee Sang Ho.


The vocal of Ynot and the songwriter of Blue Bird gave a press statement today, 1st Feb:

We shared our thoughts about this situation, yet the composer, songwriter
and company representative have not made an excuse or shared a statement. We
have received advice from an entertainment business lawyer and will seek help to
take legal action.

A FNC Music (CNBLUE’s company) representative claimed
that we were noise marketing to raise our own popularity. We think that, from
the plagiarism allegations, FNC Music is the one noise marketing to up their
popularity instead.

It seems like FNC Music is waiting it out and
expecting this controversy to settle down. … They aren’t giving Ynot respect and
haven’t cared to take action because Ynot is an indie band.

On February
1st, Ynot’s company asked FNC Music to apologize for the insulting statements
they made, and asked the songwriters to make an official statement toward the
similarities between the songs.

This controversy is ultimately between
me (Ju Mong), the songwriter of Blue Bird, and Kim Do Hoon and Lee Sang Ho, the
composer and songwriter of I’m a Loner, and shouldn’t involve Ynot and CNBLUE.

I can see Ynot is trying hard not to pull the talented new group, C.N.BLUE, into this mess all this while. However, taking official legal charges against the song would mean affecting the group badly already.

I really hope this issue will be settled appropriately by FNC, and even if apologies are needed, i hope they will humble down and offer their sincere apologies and make sensible and mature statements about the issue.

There could be really coincidences, or very obvious similarities between songs all the time, so whether this plagiarism issue is just a marketing strategy, or a really blunt mistake, we should all give C.N.BLUE our utmost support and show love for their other original songs.

HWAITING, C.N.BLUE!

#32: INKIGAYO WINTER SPECIAL WIN, AND GREAT ALBUM SALES

Earlier on, we brought you the stages of C.N.BLUE in the 3 music shows over the weekend (see post #29) and we reported that they won MusicBank charts.

Now, we're glad to announce that they have also won Inkigayo Mutizen Award, and that makes a 2nd win in their 3 weeks of debut! Isn't that just amazing?



Really feel happy for them!

Also, on this winter special, they did a special band performance with Kim Jang Hoon, a legendary rock ballad singer and they did up a good performance!
hd!



The way they presented the song is cute, isnt it?
Anyway, did Jong Hyun forget his lyrics at 1:05? He smiled it off so it doesnt look like he forgot! lol
Also, don't miss Jong Hyun's amazing electric guitar solo at 1:55!

The scans on the Inkigayo take 7 giveouts.















Winning Mutizen was not the only good news C.N.BLUE had.
We received news that C.N.BLUE has sold 30000 copies of their BLUETORY album in 3 weeks and that's really a blast!

FNC company expressed, “We had no idea the album would garner this much attention. We are making more CD’s at the factory but it might take awhile for them to get to the fans.”

CNBLUE also held a fan signing event after the Inkigayo show at the Shin Nara Record Center.















Can't wait to hear more of C.N.BLUE!

And guess what, the following will really be good news for all fans!

They will be releasing a FULL ALBUM on 20th March 2010!
More details about it would definitely surface soon, so keep your eyes peeled for our website updates! :)
