C.N Blue has attracted me to search more about them..hehe..due to the present of their oldest member Jung Yonghwa plays Kang Shinwoo in the boy-band idol drama,” You’re Beautiful” (미남이시네요), starring Park Shinhye, Jang Geunseok, and F.T Island’s Lee Hongki. If you can’t recognize Jung Yonghwa, he’s the one wearing the Run DMC shirt (a wise choice by the stylist, by the way).

C.N. Blue (Code Name Blue) will be debuting in Japan as an Indie band.They are a Korean indie band under the same management of F.T Island.Actually, they have been doing various street performances and small gigs, but they will be releasing an official album titled "Now or Never" on August 19th. They are already called the "Second F.T. Island" due to their similar sound and style. In fact, C.N. Blue is actually in the same company as F.T. Island, F&C Music (Fish and Cake Music).

The members are consisted of Jung Yong Hwa (vocal and guitar), Lee Jong Hyun(Vocal, guitar), Kwon Kwang Jin (basist), Kang Min Hyuk (drums). I have to say, they do not sound exactly like F.T. Island, but they do share similar styles. C.N. Blue has a more street and raw sound, and I'm liking what I hear! Alot!

The band is composed of 4 young band members ranging in ages from 17 to 20 years of age. They released their album last August, gaining some recognition in Japan. Maybe after the drama, they’ll rise to higher popularity in their motherland.
