[News] 121105 FTISLAND’s Mysterious Concept for 9th Japanese Single ‘Polar Star’

FTISLAND’s newly-released teaser is getting lots of attention from fans.

FTISLAND released the teaser video of their 9th Japanese single ‘Polar Star’ on 5 November. In the video, FTISLAND installed special lighting on each of their instruments, giving the video a dazzling touch as they perform, in accordance with the concept of ‘Polar Star’.

Title song ‘Polar Star’ is a medium rock song that talks about how feelings for one remain unchanged, just like the polar star that stays fixed in its position. This song is also getting lots of attention as it has been selected as the ending theme song for NTV programme ‘Onryumon’ and ‘Futtonda’.

Besides the title song ‘Polar Star’, their 9th Japanese single also includes songs like ‘Fallin’ for you’, written & composed by Lee Jaejin and ‘Beautiful World’, composed by Choi Jonghoon. Lee Jaejin explained, “I was inspired while trying out the acoustic guitar at home and this is how the melody for ‘Fallin’ for you’ came about. It is a song that talks about how a guy feels when he can’t approach the girl he loves.”

Following that, Choi Jonghoon said, “This is my first time writing a Jonghoon-labelled ballad that goes with a piano accompaniment. The song is titled ‘Beautiful World’.  I composed the melody while thinking of the lyrics that talk about how a guy looks at a girl in an adorable way. “

FTISLAND’s ‘Polar Star’ MV teaser can be viewed on FTISLAND’s Japan official Youtube channel and the full version will be revealed on the release date of their 9th Japanese single ‘Polar Star’ on 28 November.
