Q: What is your feeling after having Yokohama Arena concert with 15,000 audience?
Jonghyun: When I performed on the street, I could learn the importance of having even one person as your audience. When I heard the number of audience would be 15,000, I thought I might get scared. (laugh) But actually I didn’t at all. As I saw many people listening to our music, I could get energy from them.
Minhyuk: Towards the ending, everyone did ‘audience wave’. They all sang along. Those became the power to us. That was unforgettable.
Yonghwa: Before we entered the hall, audience were already standing, they were ready to listen. I was so touched by it. I was so excited that I don’t remember how we started.
Jungshin: While performing, I was reminded to all of our past concerts. It was the final indie concert, it was very meaningful for me.
Q: CNBLUE have twin guitar & vocal, both Yonghwa and Jonghyun are in charge of composing and lyrics writing. Recently Minhyuk and Jungshin started study of composing and lyric writing.
Minhyuk: I’m listening to various music, and thinking about the image of music that I want to make. But still I am just thinking. (laugh)
Jonghyun: They are practicing guitar and piano. They are admirable. In my point of view, Minhyuk has ability of writing lyric. He reads lots of book, he is the smartest among us. (laugh)
Yonghwa: He writes the most emotional lyric.
Jungshin: Not long ago, we had a package to our dorm, it was books Minhyuk ordered.
Minhyuk: Ah… Thank you.(ashamed) I bought books, but I am too busy to read many books. (laugh)
Jonghyun: I am lack of experience, I get emotions watching many drama or movies, to compose.
Yonghwa hyung, composing is your hobby, right?
Yonghwa: I can’t do it if I think it’s a work. It’s my daily life. With this thinking, (composing as a natural manner), I can make a good song. When I composed my first song, I was in the second year of middle school. As I listen to it again now, it’s the worst.
Minhyuk: But you thought it was the best at that time, didn’t you?Yonghwa: I did. Title was ‘Easy Love’. It’s meaningless. I don’t know what it meant.
Q: Your major debut single ‘In My Head’ is composed by Yonghwa.
Yonghwa: I made it when we were preparing debut in Korea, January 2010. I kept it carefully. I didn’t know I could release it this fast, as Japan major debut single even. I feel so deeply moved.
Jungshin: The lyric is about a hope of those in the 20s like us, very positive.
Yonghwa: I always make the title first, then content later. This song too, I started from the title “In My Head”.
Q: Hopeful lyric, it reflects yourself.
Jonghyun: Definitely, practice is everything to us. We have a long way to go. Actually, I want to play the guitar even while sleeping. We members realize that if we don’t practice hard, we can’t progress.
Jungshin: When we attend the music festival, I see other artists perform on the stage. That’s a real good lesson to us. Another thing is a speaking?
Minhyuk: Japanese language. We are studying hard, and I think I became better, but if we speak Japanese better, our concert would have been better.
Yonghwa: If we could make better conversation, we could have made a hit 3,4 times bigger than now. (laugh) I wish I could speak in Japanese (and tell people) what I want to express. And we are practicing really hard, but definitely practice is not enough. I want more concerts. That’s the best lesson!
