@4portrait: 초청장엔 안들어간, 제가 좋아하는 사진^^CNBLUE 강민혁의 천사표정과 이정신의 착한아빠 표정.. 너무 아름답지요?
[Trans] Even though this is not included in the invitation card, it’s my favorite photo^^CNBLUE Kang Min Hyuk‘s angel-look & Lee Jung Shin‘s good-daddy look.. Aren’t they really beautiful?
Note: The babies are abandoned, waiting to
be adopted. Only a few very lucky babies will be adopted to Korean
family. Others will go to foreign countries and grow to be foreign
citizens and probably hate not only their parents but also Korea who
abandoned themselves. This exhibition is to arouse interest in adoption.

CNBLUE 2011 Asia Tour Concert “Bluestorm in Jakarta”, konser pertama CNBLUE, yang sedianya akan diselenggarakan di Jakarta, tanggal 26 November 2011 di JITEC Mangga Dua Square mendatang, terpaksa harus dibatalkan. Menurut FNC Music selaku management CNBLUE, alasan dari pembatalan konser ini adalah ketidaksempurnaan persiapan konser.
Selama masa persiapan acara, kami berusaha memenuhi persyaratan dan permintaan pihak manajemen artis yang kerap berubah di menit terakhir. Mulai dari segi lokasi, promosi, sampai produksi. Seperti yang kami umumkan dalam konferensi pers sebelumnya bahwa perpindahan lokasi acara dari Skenoo Hall, Gandaria City ke JITEC Mangga Dua Square juga merupakan permintaan langsung dari manajemen artis.
Kami telah melakukan yang terbaik agar konser ini tetap berjalan sesuai rencana, dengan berusaha memenuhi segala persyaratan dan opsi-opsi yang telah diberikan hingga H-3 konser. Tetapi pada akhirnya pihak manajemen artis tetap memutuskan untuk menghentikan segala persiapan dan membatalkan konser ini.
Kami selaku promotor meminta maaf sebesar-besarnya atas kejadian ini. Terutama kepada pihak-pihak yang telah dirugikan secara moral dan materiil, seperti fans, media partner, dan sponsor.
Kami bertanggung jawab penuh terhadap semua pembeli tiket konser ini. Perihal mekanisme pengembalian uang tiket akan diumumkan secepatnya.
Terima kasih.

Sebelumnya, agensi CNBLUE (FNC Music) telah terlebih dulu mengumumkan dalam website resmi mereka bahwa konser “Bluestorm in Jakarta” dibatalkan.
CNBLUE and FTISLAND will soon be expanding their music career in UK, the country considered as the world’s ‘home of bands’CNBLUE and FTISLAND are preparing a concert in UK and France early next year. As most music enthusiasts acknowledge, UK is the home of band music having cultivated world-class acts such as The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Oasis, Blur and Muse. Since the recent wave of K-pop is focused on dance music, it will be meaningful that bands, such as CNBLUE and FTISLAND, are now also expanding into the European music market.
This international opportunity is realized through ‘M-Live’ a branded concert produced by CJ E&M. This branded concert will bring solo and joint concerts by Korean artists overseas, engaging them in the international market actively.
Manager Ahn Seck Jun of CJ E&M stated that “ we plan to introduce not only idol bands but also various genre bands to Europe and other countries”
CEO Han Sung Ho, of FNC, management agency of CNBLUE and FTISLAND showed his confidence “ Although there is pressure to extend our career overseas, right into the home of band music, on the other hand, I actually did expect this could happen. When I look at our band seniors(Editor’s Note: Those who had been in band music ahead of CNBLUE and FTISLAND), I am confident that Korean band music is not at all behind the world-class standard.
CJ E&M held a press conference for ‘M-Live’ at M-pop, Times Square in Yongdeungpo, Seoul on November 2, with six music entertainment companies participating: Cube Entertainment (G.NA, B2ST, 4MINUTE), Star Empire (Z:EA, Jewelry), Amoeba Culture (Dynamic Duo), FNC Music(CNBLUE, FTISLAND), Jungle Entertainment (Drunken Tiger, Leessang) and J-Tune Entertainment (MBLAQ).
