FT Island jumps on the acting bandwagon

0928 ft island2

I expected better from FT Island, but they turned out to be no different from other boy-bands populating the industry. FT Island’s bassist Lee Jae Jin is jumping on the acting bandwagon with sitcom Unstoppable Marriage, re-make of the movie that starred Eugene and Ha Suk Jin. Jae Jin will play the youngest of four children who falls in love with an older love interest, played by Girls Generation’s Yuri and Soo Young.

I could care less about the remake of a mediocre movie, but I’m curious to see how FTers and GGers will react when they see their beloved idol kissing someone else. Will FTers and GGers collaborate with each other for the sitcom’s success or will go overboard becoming each other’s antis?

    EXCUSE ME?! Jae Jin.. Goodness.. I just hope he won’t fail. Don’t harbour any hopes for the gg girls though..

    I think this is so cute, watching two young sigers hit the screen, because we need some new faces and some younger boys Lol xDDDD

    UGH!!!!! I totally love Jaejin and i totally HATE GG… remake of SJ… wannabes of SJ… i agree with ziggy, boy bands are the popular groups now. the cute and pretty boybands… not the girlbands… girl fans are the ones that mostly count as fans… the guys just listen to music they don’t do the things that girls do… so technically, boy bands would be more popular and welcomed…

    yes.. fans would collide… i would count myself in… even though i’m already an anti-GG fan…

    There is nothing wrong with him trying out acting. Trying something new doesn’t make him less talented nor does it make FT Island less passionate about their music.

    At first, I thought that they were just another boyband but I was proved wrong when I listened to their ablum. I am quite impressed with their music since the soung was completely recorded by them-soundtrack was played by the band, vocals by the band. Their ‘lives’ are quite good too.

    It will be interesting to see if the production flops or not. Future will tell.

    o yea, and btw, jaejin isn’t the one that likes yuri and sooyoung. soo young and yuri are the ones that like jaejin. you should really watch the drama before saying your opinions popseoul. i love your site and all, but you guys are too biased, and you say bad stuff about celebrities, without even giving them a chance. like, you haven’t even watched this drama yet, and your saying it sucks, just because singers act in this.

    no… jaejin won’t be able to kiss a snsd member
    because just like hongki, in the music video of man’s first love goes to grave, or 남자의 첫사랑은 무덤까지 간다, Hongki was actually suppose to kiss the girl but the director called it off because Hongki was too young.
    Jaejin is younger than Hongki, so i don’t think the director will allow a kissing scene.
    also, if jaejin and the snsd girls signed up to gain more popularity, i dont think there would be a kissing scene because that will lower their popularity. =]

    Hey you Popseoul I really hate you for this. I love F.T.Island so much that it’s my fav korean band.
    How can you say they are like other boys band populating the industry just bcoz jae jin is persuing his acting career.
    You really must be a foool to think this. F.T.Island is unique in everythig. Above all Hong ki beats it all with his superb voice.
    You are just a crazy fool
