F.T. Triple
In January 2009, members Choi Jong Hoon, Choi Minhwan, and Lee Jaejin were put into the sub group "A3". This group debuted at the 2009 New Year concert "My First Dream" held at the JCB Hall in Tokyo, Japan on January 2, 2009. Jong Hoon performed as the guitarist and a sub-vocalist. The group's name was "A3" due to each of the three members having type A blood. This group was formed to help take up some singing time during their concerts, so that lead singer, Lee Hongki, would not overstrain his voice.
In late 2009, the triple-member group was renamed "F.T. Triple" and began working with Jong Hoon on keyboard instead of guitar. They released the single "Love Letter" and began performing on music shows. During this time, F.T. Island's main vocalist Lee Hongki was busy filming a drama and guitarist Song Seung Hyun was involved in several variety shows.

In 2008, Choi appeared with the other F.T. Island members in the daily KBS2 sitcom Unstoppable Marriage in episode 62.[4]
With fellow band member Song Seung-hyun, Jong-hoon modeled at the 2009 Autumn Seoul Fashion Week on October 17, 2009 for Lee Ju Young, the designer of the "Resurrection" collection.[5] On June 29, 2009, he was featured with Core Contents Media’s soloist Hong Jin Young as one of the main characters in her music video “Love Battery”. In August he participated in episode 19 of MNet Scandal.[6]
Together with Song Seung-hyun, he starred in “Style Wave” in December 2009 and January 2010.[7] In this show, stars discuss major style trends and dress a shopper according to a chosen style theme. Choi participated in episode 15 of Seoul Broadcasting System's Idol Maknae Rebellion ("아이돌 막내반란시대") with fellow band member Seung-hyun, who was a cast member of the show; the episode aired on February 15, 2010. He made his acting debut as a supporting character on the film You're My Pet starring actors Jang Keun-suk and Kim Ha-neul.[8]
