So, anyone remembered FT Island's cameo appearance in SBS 온에어 (On Air) as themselves attending an award party and also specially appearing on KBS 못말리는 결혼 (Unstoppable Marriage) to support Lee Jaejin's character in that sitcom?

Well, if you have fun watching FT Island appearing on TV dramas even for a short several seconds or even without lines, be sure you are not missing SBS weekend drama, SBS 스타일 (Stail) airing every Saturday and Sunday. It was reported yesterday in Korea that not only FT Island, but 2PM, 2NE1 and two actors, Kang Jihwan and Cha Yeryun are going to appear as cameos for the sixth episode of this weekend drama. The mentioned celebrities (including FT Island) are going to appear in this drama for an event of celebrating the 200th issue of a fashion magazine (according to DramaWiki, the magazine itself was named as Style) where the main characters of the drama worked in. The sixth episode will air on 16th August.

If you asked me about the drama itself, well, I hadn't watch it all after it replaced SBS 찬라한 유산 (Shining Inheritance)'s time slot. I am still in love with that drama but from what I read and heard, SBS 스타일 is somehow considered as Korea's The Devil's Wears Prada, because it involved a story about a young women who worked in a magazine where she found her boss a bit scary. I think so. I should go and watch some episodes first before I could say that.

Back to FT Island, this will also marked Song Seunghyun's firsta attempt in appearing as cameo in a TV drama. The rest of the boys, including Wonbin had done it before for SBS 온에어 and even had a whole episode of KBS 못말리는 결혼 involved about them (FT4 acting as bad boys, trying to get SNSD's Yuri and Sooyoung's attention by chasing them around). So basically, I am excited to know whether the boys and the rest of the cameos mentioned will actually have lines to be said or was it just like in SBS 온에어 where they just walked on the red carpet and was never seen again. With three boys of FT Island already in the acting field, and Jonghoon was already experienced in appearing as cameo, I think FT Island will do well. Among the mentioned idol group, FT Island (except for Seunghyun) was also the most experienced idol band to appear as cameo for this drama because they had done it before. Well, doesn't Seunghyun said he likes acting? This will be like an exposure for him too.

I want to thank SBS for including FT Island in the cameo list, though. The boys really need to appear on TV more, not just on variety and music shows. They have to have their chances to shine as talented celebrities, not just singers. I can't wait to watch it, so good luck to FT Island and good luck to both 2PM and 2NE1.

I basically am more excited and in the same time, curious about 2PM's acting skills.

[EDIT - 11.28 a.m.]

Aww ~ the five boys looked so handsome. Seunghyun is HOT with that black hat but what is wrong with the manskirt? Are the stylists trying to ruin his image or what? Still not digging Jaejin's hair. Don't tell me he likes it because I think nobody likes it. I got nothing to say about Minhwan except that I don't like his outfit. Hongki and Jonghoon are mighty fine! They are going to appear as cameos in those outfits? Ah ~ I really can't wait!
