#63: Updates on Strong Heart scandal and Good News

Earlier on, we showed you the cut of Yong Hwa on Strong Heart telling his funny story about his first date in Seoul, and right after, there was a scandal, created by yet another irritating netizen to say that Yong Hwa's story was COPIED from him ((&#@!_@#*&@#@) (see post #59)

However, FNC and C.N.BLUE spoke up for our poor Yong Hwa and I am so glad they gave so much support towards their leader!

Jung Yong Hwa's Company Clears Up Scandal
Through this event, Jung Yong Hwa's company stated, "This is a real event that Jung Yong Hwa went through" and continued, "It's probably because a lot of people who has a dialect goes through similar situations".

C.N.BLUE comments on Strong Heart Scandal
At first, all the blame was poured on Jung Yong Hwa but the arrow has been pointed to Strong Heart's writing team and now it has turned to the staff.

C.N.BLUE explained,"It's been awhile since Yonghwa filmed " and continued, "It's ridiculous to say that he said someone else's story. It's a situation that he went through himself."

Despite all the nonsensical scandals, there are good news for C.N.BLUE!

CNBLUE - 3 CF Contracts in 2 Weeks
Through their single, rock band C.N.BLUE pulled an allkill (tops all) on all the music charts and now the "BLUESTORM" has continued into the CF (spokesperson/advertisement) world.
After debuting for only 2 weeks, C.N.BLUE gained the new nickname of the "BLUECHIP" in the CF world as they signed as models for 3 different companies.

C.N.BLUE's company FNCMUSIC revealed, "We signed as models for casual clothing brands "NII" and "THE SUIT HOUSE" and most recently, we signed a contract with the "PurpleBird" clothing brand."

C.N.BLUE debuted as CF models for clothing brand "NII" whose previous models included Super Junior and Big Bang and is a company known for showcasing "rising stars". "The Suit House"'s former model was Jang Geun Suk and now C.N.BLUE is their new image.

C.N.BLUE's fresh image along with their appeal to the masses gave them a high value causing many lovecalls*(offers) from CF companies.

FNC MUSIC commented, "We have even more requests from CF companies at the moment. We believe we will be able to give a new announcement in a short while".

Before debuting, Jung Yong Hwa's drama "You're Beautiful" garnered attention and C.N.BLUE won No. 1 on KBS MUSIC BANK on the 29th and the SBS Mutizen Award on the 31st, realizing the "BLUESTORM" effect and proving themselves as "Powerful Newcomers". Even last week when they held their first signing event, thousands of fans came to see the stars.

Also, they will be holding their first live concert, and it would be held in Japan!

CNBLUE to hold first live concert in Japan
C.N.BLUE made a strong debut last month but they actually made their debut first in Japan, which is why they’ll be holding their first live concert there next month.

They’ve come a long way since the days where they used to perform live gigs on the streets of Tokyo. CNBLUE has definitely hit it big in the k-pop scene but they’ll never forget where it all started as they’ll be returning to Japan to perform at Club Quattro in Shibuya.

A representative of their label FNC Music said, “We have future plans of dedicating at least a year to live concerts in Japan.“
