CNBLUE “Look Back at the Fruitful Year 2012″ - Part 2


In 2012, from the first Arena Tour in Japan to individual acting activities in Korea, CNBLUE has been extremely busy not only with music production but also works in a variety of fields. After interview about the upcoming single, let’s see them looking back at this year.

— You have been very busy this year too. What was especially impressive?
Yonghwa: Production of “Ear Fun” and Japan 1st album.
Minhyuk:  Live tour, drama, and all activities were really fun.
Jungshin: It was tough to do Arena Tour and drama filming at the same time. But thanks to that, I feel like I grew up more than before. So I’m glad.
Jonghyun: Above all, I was happy that I stood on various stages.

— How was the first Arena Tour in Japan?
Yonghwa: Happiness to have tour exceeded pressure.
Minhyuk:  I had a lot of fun, and it was very meaningful and happy tour.
Jungshin: Arena Tour was a challenge for us. On the last day, a feeling that “I made so much efforts!” and a feeling that I was going to miss the time filled my heart.
Jonghyun: Yes! Beyond words!(laugh)

— Then, what do you want to confess to other members before this year ending? (laugh)
Yonghwa: Nothing special. (laugh)
Minhyuk: I made a lot of jokes of members, but that’s because I like them so much! (laugh)
Jungshin: On the tour, did you three have fun with going to a hot spring without me? I love hot spring, too! Hmph! (laugh)
Jonghyun: “Starlit Night” is a song dedicated to all fans!

— What food was the most delicious?
Yonghwa: My mother’s cooking that I ate at my family house.
Minhyuk:  Sushi, Sashimi (sliced raw fish).
Jonghyun: Kaiseki Ryouri (Japanese food served at tea ceremony) when visiting hot spring!
Jungshin:  As I ate many delicious foods on Arena Tour, I don’t know what to choose. (laugh)

— If you members changed something?
Yonghwa: We all got stronger mentally and physically.
Minhyuk: I feel we became more handsome than before…? (laugh)
Jonghyun: We did become more handsome!
Jungshin: YongHwa’s body and neck got stronger, JongHyun’s skin got whiter, and MinHyuk’s body turned yellow? Like “The Simpson’s”. (laugh)

— What kind of year do you want the next year to be?
Yonghwa: I want to have activity much more energetically. I want to make sure to keep promise with fans.
Jungshin: I hope to produce nice works and CNBLUE become much bigger. I personally want to grow up more and more.
Jonghyun: It’s not a special goal… but I want the happiness that I feel every day to continue forever.
Minhyuk:  I hope it will keep being on the rise!

— Last word.
Yonghwa: Thank you for staying together this year, too! Next year too, I will make efforts to be CNBLUE who faces music straight and hard!
Minhyuk: Thank you for watching me this year, too. From now on too, please look forward for CNBLUE’s work and live. It’s a little early, but happy new year. (laugh)
Jungshin: 2012 was a year of full of happiness for us. How was it for you all? Next year, I hope more happiness to come to you and I hope for your good health… I hope for your continuous support for Pati-Pati and CNBLUE!
Jonghyun: Otsukare sama deshita (You(/and we) all did well/worked hard) this year. And, thank you! Next year too, I will work hard with gratitude!
