F.T. Island escapes dorm fire uninjured





On the morning of May 3rd, the members of F.T. Island were reported to have escaped a dorm fire without any injuries.

Representatives of their agency explained, “Their computer monitor overheated and began emitting smoke. In response, the sprinklers exploded. The members were able to escape to a safe location and call for help. It was not anything major or severe. Rest assured, the members are not injured and do not require a visit to the hospital.”

Despite it being a scary situation, the agency thought positively of the fire by calling it a sign of good luck. ”The members were up late preparing for their new mini-album’s music video and album jacket photoshoot before returning to their dorms to sleep. As they’ve just released their new album, ‘Satisfaction‘, we consider this ‘fire’ a sign of good luck.”
