The band FTISLAND (Lee Hong Gi, Lee Jae Jin, Song Seung Hyun, Choi Min Hwan) is returning with a deeply emotional breakup song.
FTISLAND will release all tracks from their seventh mini-album ‘ZAPPING’ and the music video for the title track ‘Quit’ on major music sites at 6 PM on the 9th.
We’ve highlighted three key points to appreciate in FTISLAND’s new album, which makes a comeback with a powerfully emotional rock ballad.
# Unrivaled Breakup Emotion.. Leading the Early Autumn Ballad Craze
FTISLAND has created numerous hit songs like ‘Severely’ and ‘Harshly’ based on Lee Hong Gi’s poignant voice, specializing in emotional rock ballads, and rich band sound.
This time, with the new breakup song ‘Quit’, they are expected to join the ballad lineup currently dominating the music charts and color early autumn with deep emotion.
Notably, the team VIP, who produced hit songs like ‘Thank You for Breaking Up’ and ‘180 Degrees’, participated as producers for ‘Quit’, adding to the dramatic emotional synergy with FTISLAND.
There are behind-the-scenes stories that VIP members were deeply impressed and praised Lee Hong Gi’s vocal abilities while recording this song.
# ‘Quit&rsquo Music Video Filmed in Paris, France ‘Maximizing Emotion’
The music video for the new song ‘Quit’ was filmed against the backdrop of Paris, France.
The music video unfolds like a film, showcasing the passionate moments of a couple who have broken up, alongside the romantic scenery of Paris, promising exceptional visual beauty.
Furthermore, this music video captivates with its mellow sensibility, contrasting with the lyrics of ‘Quit’.
The romantic Parisian atmosphere throughout the video, in contrast to the lyrics of ‘Quit’ which directly express the desire to cut off and stop everything, seems to convey the inner thought, ‘I wish I didn’t have to stop’, maximizing the viewers’ emotions.
# New Album ‘ZAPPING’, Reinterpreted Masterpieces Summarizing 12 Years of Activity ‘Increased Anticipation’
‘ZAPPING’, FTISLAND’s new album, is Lee Hong Gi’s last album before his upcoming military enlistment.
Starting with Lee Hong Gi, FTISLAND plans to focus on individual activities for the time being.
Concluding a chapter of their activities, which have been passionately pursued for 12 years, FTISLAND has reinterpreted beloved songs from their past to fit the mood of this album.
‘I Wish’, sung by a 20-year-old Lee Hong Gi 10 years ago, has been included as ‘Hope Again’, a newly interpreted ballad by a 30-year-old.
Also, ‘Love Love Love’, released in 2010, can be heard in this album under the title ‘Mirage (Love Love Love 2) (No Regret)’, awakening the listener’s emotions.
In addition, the new song ‘Day By Day’ and ‘Don’t Lose Yourself’, which features fans’ chorus adding meaning, are included, allowing a glimpse into FTISLAND’s ongoing musical journey.
FTISLAND’s new album ‘ZAPPING’ and the music video for the title track ‘Quit’ will be released on major music sites at 6 PM on September 9th.
