MsGoodweather

love Hongki's voice. so touching.

ForeverCellist

Hongki is literally one of the only singers who can make me almost CRY just by listening to his voice alone, when I can't even understand the lyrics.

Cataa Velásquez

Hong Ki sabe como interpretar las canciones, cuando es una canción triste no es necesario saber hablar Coreano o Japonés porque su voz y sus expresiones lo dicen todo♥ realmente son una gran banda, FTIsland es una banda increíble y ellos 5 son mi vida♥

Sky Bling

La música de FT island island me dio fuerza cuando tenía depresión. Los amo.

Gia Y Claudia

Indhira Sanchez

Snowmo Glitter

2019?
This is one of my favourite songs even after years and years. Timeless and beautiful, even though I don't even know Japanese. I always have to listen to this every Winter and watch the MV at least once. I miss simple MVs like this, I think they're much nicer. Even the lesser resolution of older music videos charms me somehow lol.
