Being a happy-go-lucky person, Jeremy is one who helps to bond the members of A.N.JELL together. He could be random at times but when he flashes his lovely smile, all was forgiven. Lee Hongki suits the role of Jeremy very well. Jeremy is foolish yet adorable, and together with his natural bright smile, it matches Lee Hongki perfectly.

Lee Hong Ki Girlfriend



After the success of Nickhun’s scandal, Mnet picks another young idol to have a chance to date a non-celebrity girl for one week. Start gluing your hearts back F.T Island fans because Lee Hongki looks so cute with his pretend girlfriend.

Wheesung and actor Kim Ji Suk also had their chance to have a scandal. But it wasn’t until Nickhun that the show started gaining a major following (and a boatload of angry fangirls). It’s no surprise that Mnet is picking idols like Hongki and Teacyeon for their celebrity line-up.

Choi Jong Hun FT Island Leader Profile

Choi Jong Hun (최종훈) is a vocalist and leader of Korean Boy Band FT Island. His name is sometimes spelled Choi Jung Hun, Choi Jong Hoon or Choi Jung Hoon. As the leader of South Korean pop band, FT Island, choi Jong Hun takes a role as Vocalist. He also plays the piano and guitar in the band.

Apart from Lee Hong Ki, Choi Jong Hun is also a university student since March 2009. He is attending Digital Music Degree classes ar Gyeonggi University.



Choi Jong Hun also Participated Seoul Broadcasting System (SBS) Idol Maknae Rebellion, and Starred in "Style Wave" together with Song Seung Hyun.

On June 29, Choi Jong Hun was featured with Core Contents Media's soloist Hong Jin Young as one of the main characters in her music video "Love Battery".


Choi Jong Hun MNet Scandal



Finally it’s Jonghoon’s turn to romance a girl in Mnet Scandal, after band-mate Hongki did an episode a few months ago.

He looks comfortable with the pretty girl (noona?), just like how every Primadonnas have been imagining him to be (yep, he’s the group’s Cassanova all right….).



Fortunately, the rest of the band is still too young to have a scandal, so the fans of the remaining members can breathe a sigh of relief. For now….. .
Plus luckily (so far) Mnet only picks 2 members from each group to do the episodes, so yes, the nightmare hopefully ends here.


Choi Jong Hun Girlfriend



Who is Choi Jong Hun girlfriend is still mysterious. But after the recent episode of MNet Scandal, which featured F.T. Island's Choi Jong Hun, Choi Jung Hun is being bashed for showing too much skinship in his recent episode with his make-believe girlfriend.



F.T. Island's leader, Choi Jong Hun, is being slammed for the amout of personal contact/skinship he had made with his partner in the recent episode of MNet Scandal. In the episode, Jong Hun and his "girlfriend" were seen, cuddling, hugging, kissing (many many times), making out and holding hands. Netizens having commenting saying things such as how "they've never seen two people advance so fast." But some are saying the fault is F.T. Island's girlfriends', saying things such as, “The problem lies with the girl. Isn’t she over doing it?” and "This woman has no class at all." Although.. aren't scandals suppose to be scandalous? In my opinion, the fault is at both sides, seeing as how it doesn't take one person to hug or hold hands, it takes two. Some netizens also had thoughts that maybe since Jong Hun has been busy for so long and maybe not having much contact with any females, he is letting it all out quickly in this one week with his make-believe girlfriend.



Choi Jong Hun and FT Triple

After several Japanese promotional activities, members Choi Jonghun, Choi Minhwan, and Lee Jaejin were put into the sub group F.T. Triple. The reason was believed to help take up some singing time during their concerts, so that lead singer, Lee Hongki, would not overstrain his voice.
