Big Bang has VIP’s, 2NE1 has Blackjacks, TVXQ / DBSK / Tohoshinki has Cassiopeia / Big East and now CNBLUE has BOICE.
Earlier today, a representative from FNC Music’s Fanclub revealed that after two rounds of voting and out of 6 potential candidate names, the vote for the official fan club name was BOICE. Voting was conducted by FNC Staff Members and CNBLUE and more than half of the people participating chose BOICE.
BOICE (pronounced as VOICE) is a combination of the words Blue and Voice. Blue represents CNBLUE and Voice represents the fans. The two words together show symbolism that CNBLUE will always be together with the fans.
