FT Island (South Korea)


F.T Island (Korean: 에프티 아일랜드), Five Treasure Island, or FTI, is a five member South Korean boy band. The name F.T. Island stands for 'Five Treasure Island', with each of the five members being a treasure. Their debut album, titled "Cheerful Sensibility", was the sixth best-selling album in 2007.

2009—present
Lee Hong Ki hosted SBS's music show Inkigayo. He later starred in the drama You're Beautiful alongside actor Jang Geun Suk and actress Park Shin Hye. Choi Min Hwan also held a role in the drama The Road Home.

On March 11, 2009, it was announced that Lee Jae Jin will participate in the musical Sonagi. He will get the role as a young boy. He was cast because he "showed a great passion for the piece, had the image of a sincere young boy, and had the qualifications to be considered a musical actor." He follows the footsteps of Big Bang's SeungRi, who already participated in the musical in summer 2008. His first appearance in "Sonagi" was on the show for the 1st May with an agitation from the press. Other than Hongki, who had a tight schedule that day, all of the other members managed to attend the musical.

On June 29, Choi Jong Hun was featured with Core Contents Media's soloist Hong Jin Young as one of the main characters in her music video "Love Battery".

On March 6, 2010, the group performed in Manila (dubbed as FT Island Manila 2010 Showcase) held at the Philippine International Convention Center (PICC).
