He started as a member of the group, but said that there were long time differences with the other members and the music personally, and stopped activities with them.

FT Island’s agency F&C Music said, “The fans knew about these rumors coming out. But Oh

It's sad. But people should support F.T Island and the new member. It might be hard but I'm sure we can do it.

I'm also a fan of the Japanese rock band An Cafe And when Bou left I was quite sad. But they got a new member and they are still going stong and everyone supports them.

yeah...i think so too..
but i won't accept at wonbin's place...but as a new member...or i can't think right know...

[ayakabun]

i think you got a good point, after all, it's FT Island whom we support, we should really just see how it goes.

It'd be different without WonBin but i think they'd be going through a harder time later, so it's best if we can just support them ;_;

OMO! This is so sad! I didn't want Wonbin to leave, he's my favorite! T__________T
I already cried just thinking about it, and now that he is leaving!
Well I wish him the best of luck in where ever he's going and trying to pursue.
I also hope that the other FT Island members are doing fine too.

it's all thanks to FT Island that i get addicted to K-Pop
when i say FT island (Hongki, WONBIN, Jonghun, Jaejin, Minhwan)
but it was so sad that wonbin have left the group
yeah it won't be the same FT Island

others may find it overreacting
but i actually cried when i hear that it was confirmed
when i listen to their songs again
and watch their videos
i would probably be in tears
and missed wonbin soo so much

what have been the reaction of the other members?

[taengoo]

i cried so much too.... i still burst into painful tears just thinking about it...

he wont be on stage with them anymore... its so sad...

Re: Wonbin-ah~ Kajima

[obscurekiss]

it's no overreacting
i'm still crying
normally when i'm sad i listen to f.t island
and i'm happy
but...now?
even i see them i start to cry again

i can't take it
i don't want to leave
i really don't want this

[katchi12]

Yeah, its really hard to accept the new member because its not FTI without Oh Won Bin...unlike with Hyuna in WG because she left just a few weeks after there debut and somehow it really doenst have a great impact..but with FT island without Oh Won Bin...its really a great impact..:(

[taengoo]

and hyunah left for health issues....but wonbin's been with them for two years... i cant... i cant believe it....

[katchi12]

yeah i know but its somewhat the same...yes the fact that wonbin was with FTI for 2 years...me as well cant still believe that wonbin will not be there to perform with with the group :((

[taengoo]

it'll be painful to see them on stage...and no wonbin....

[brokenbarbies]

Wonbin is really selfish. he's my favourite member, but i'm not going to side him. He really disappointed me, and i bet many other fans.

[obscurekiss]

he made me sad
but i don't think it's selfish
sure it's your opinion and like i often said now that i don't want him to leave the group
but we have to keep in mind that if he's only doing it half hearted or/and if he's unhappy...it wouldn't be the same either...?

[brokenbarbies]

Yeah he made me really sad too; it's really upsetting

I don't want him to leave too. but he should have think really deeply before choosing what he did. He must have gone through a difficult time, it definitely wasn't an easy decision, but I feel he should have thought about it more, think about the members.. and us. It was a hasty decision he made. Nevertheless, i support him. and there's nothing more i can say since it doesnt change the fact that he has left.

[hoyah]

how do you know that he didn't think deeply?
