F.T. Island’s Seunghyun vows to never get nail art done again

Guitarist Seunghyun of F.T. Island remarked that his fellow members made him take up a fashion trend he was not interested in.

During an interview with OSEN that took place on September 5th, Seunghyun explained, “Hongki really likes to get his nails done so not that long ago, he took all of us to a nail salon before we shot our Japanese MV. Actually, it would be more appropriate to say that he dragged us there.”

“The biggest victim was myself,” Seunghyun added. “The person doing my nails drew silver spiders on them, and when I took a look after it was completed, there were a total of 11 spiders on my ten fingers. I experienced mental collapse,” evoking laughter.

Seunghyun further explained his experience stating, “During the filming for the MV, it turned out that my silver spiders were actually too sparkly, so we ended up editing them out with computer graphics. I disliked them so much that I went home and tried to take them off, but my own nail beds would pull along with it and they didn’t come off that well. I will never get my nails done again.”

Jaejin who was also with him added, “As for me, I went a few more times to get my nails done, and that was because Hongki hyung took me,” causing everyone to further burst out into laughter.

In related news, FT Island is getting ready to comeback with their full-length album ‘Five Treasure Box‘.
