CNBlue part in FNC "kingdom Day 1 - Fantastic Day
They started off with ‘Blind Love’ and raised the energy of the stadium at once, and it was followed with Jonghyun singing ‘Kimio’ with his soft and gentle voice. Then they raised the energy of the place even higher with their hit number In My Head, and ended with Yonghwa’s shout ‘CNBLUE, Top of the world!’ that made the audience scream!
Yonghwa: Hello~
CNBLUE: We are CNBLUE.
Yonghwa: Are you all having fun? We are happy to have a live concert with artists from the same agency. Let’s enjoy it till the end! Budokan! Are you ready?
Yonghwa: Of course all of you… you are my diamond girl ~ (all scream)
With that, they performed the song ‘Diamond Girl’ which is from their 5th mini album.
In ‘Coffee Shop’, they showed off a drum solo by Minhyuk, a guitar solo by Jonghyun, a bass solo by Jungshin, then Yonghwa.
In ‘I’m sorry’, Yonghwa made the audience follow his famous elbow dance which made him laugh. All became one by loudly singing ‘miccheoso’ together. In the end his high pitched voice was so wonderful that wow the audiences.
Jungshin: First floor, are you having fun? Second floor, are you? Third floor, how about you?
Jonghyun: We’ve been so busy with comeback activities in Korea… (So I was worried to do this stage) but everyone is great. I seriously think so. I can receive a warm feeling from all of you and we can finish the rest of our activities with a good heart. I will send you my gratitude by playing good music. We’ve currently been doing a World tour and meeting all of our fans. Hearing their cheers, I feel we need to return you our love by our music. We will multiply it (your love toward us) and send it back to you, so please look forward to it. That’s all.
Yonghwa: FNC got really big. First, FTIsland… thanks —struggling to find words—- (in English) Thank you very much!!!
Jonghyun: He means that FTIsland has started off the company. I am thankful for them. I am the translator, Jonghyun. (That made audiences laugh.)
After that, as Yonghwa sat in front of the piano and started to play, the whole stadium went completely quiet and you could only hear his piano and his voice. Despite the fact that there were various groups’ fans, it is common standard to listen to the music. Seeing this, I was amazed that this is the true Japanese way of enjoying music.
