Performing is Rain’s biggest love

The Korean superstar might play a lot of roles -- singer, actor and producer -- but that one thing which he still adores is to stand on stage

Rain might be a household name now, but fame has not gone into the Korean superstar's head. Many times during the press conference held at the Marina Bay Sands yesterday, Rain thanked his fans over and over again.
At the press conference, Rain was told that a diehard Singaporean fan, who had supported him since 2005, spent more than US$5,000 (S$6,179) trying to catch Rain's concerts around the world.
When asked if he had anything to say to the fan, Rain replied gratefully that he is "very thankful [for her support]" and let on the particular fan was also at his Germany concert 24 hours ago.
Rain added, "I still don't know how to repay the fan's support."
This year, Rain topped the "Most Influential People in the World" poll organised by Time magazine. This is his second time in the list, after his first entrance in 2006. The Korean actor also made his foray into Hollywood, playing the male lead in Ninja Assassin, a role which garnered the "Biggest Badass Star" at the MTV Movie Awards.
Speaking about his international wins, Rain replied that they were all possible, only with his fans' strong support. He added that he had attended the Times 100 reception previously and had met musicians Sting and Bruno Mars.

Rain may be fulfilling his military duties soon, but fans will still be able to see him around for a little while more.
During the press conference, Rain revealed that he is currently filming his upcoming movie Flight: Close to the Sun, which he is producing too, and that it would be a blockbuster, complete with comedy and romance.
"I hope all of you will love it," he added with a sincere smile.
Rain also mentioned that he had begun preparations for a new album, but did not provide further details.

03

Not only is Rain a singer and actor, the talented artiste is also a mentor to Korean boy band MBLAQ.
"It's fun and interesting to teach the children. It's not easy because they require guidance. I hope they'll become better," Rain replied thoughtfully.
When asked which of his roles -- singer, actor and producer -- he preferred, Rain laughed and exclaimed, "It's like asking me to choose between my father and my mother!"
While it was a tough choice, Rain ultimately said that he still preferred to be on stage.
With so many things on his plate, what does the singer do to relieve the stress?
"I eat a lot," Rain quipped quickly, causing the media present to burst into laughter. "It's the best way to relieve stress."
The singer grinned toothily and added that he loved a lot of food in Singapore, especially the crabs.

04

Rain will be turning 29 years old in June.
When asked if he wants to get married, the singer replied that although he wants to marry early, it is impossible to do so because he is currently unattached. Rain then added that he does not have any tactics when courting girls, and prefers to leave it to Fate.
The Best 2011 Rain Asia Tour will be held at the Singapore Indoor Stadium tonight, and fans will be able to catch one of the most visually aesthetic performances of the year, coupled with a 2.5-minute long of indoor rainfall.
The 1000 litres of water used to create the 'rain' will be collected and recycled for plant watering. Rain aims to promote environment awareness through The Best 2011 Rain Asia Tour and is communicating water conversation in Singapore.

05

With a production cost of approximately S$1.5 million, the concert boasts of a specially-crafted stage, customised props and equipments as well as 200 costumes.

[22-May-11][Soompi]Rain Fools Around in Germany: Drinks Out of Cocktail Glass Bigger than his Face

kép


On Saturday, international star Rain (Jung Ji Hoon) tweeted photos of himself in Germany. In one photo, he is seen drinking out of a cocktail glass . Along with the pictures, he wrote, “Successfully finished my concert in Germany…and now I’m looking through the menu. I ordered a cocktail ice cream to toast my success, but I almost died trying to finish it. T.T ”

In the photos, Rain is seen at an outdoor café sporting a sunglass with a very sexy open buttoned leopard print top. The photo where he’s seen drinking out of a cocktail glass that is twice the size of his face has been attracting much attention among netizens.

Netizens commented, “The glass is bigger than his face!” “Definitely a fashion icon! Lovin’ the animal prints” and “That cocktail looks yummy!!!”

Recently, Rain participated in the Dresden Music Festival, one of Germany’s most celebrated festivals, and received a fusillade of encore requests after his performance.

[23-May-11][xin.msn]Rainism hits Singapore

 a1 kép

Throngs of overseas fans turned up for the Singapore leg of the Korean Superstar’s final concert tour before his army enlistment


Text: Joanna Goh

It was their final chance to get up close and personal with Rain last night before the singer-actor temporarily hangs up his dancing shoes to serve his country for the next two years.

Though "a little sad" to bid goodbye, a couple of Malaysian fans who specially flew in on Sunday morning for the concert were "proud of Rain" and will continue to "wait two years from now" for his return.

To grab the best possible standing spots in the mosh pit segments, these Malaysian fans started queuing at 9am, hours before the The Best 2011 Rain Asia Tour in Singapore concert began. The first in line was an 18-year-old Malaysian fan who arrived at 6.30am with her mother in tow.

Armed with paper fans and fan paraphernalia, waiting patiently outside the stadium's premises were a group of 200 overseas and local fans from Rain's official fanclub. We were told by two Singapore reps that a group of 150 Korean, Japanese and Indonesian fans specially flew in to attend the event last night.


While these 30-something matured ladies adored the 27-year-old Korean artiste for his "style", "handsome looks", "dancing skills" and "voice", the latter's hot bod aka "chocolate abs" was also clearly the object of their affection.

The concert kicked off promptly at 7.15pm to a sea of lightsticks and piercing screams with large pockets of empty spaces in the terrace seats. Days prior to the concert, it is known that tickets were being sold at a special two-for-one promotional offer due to poor box office sales.


Looking suave and smart in a shirt and leather jacket, Rain danced and grooved to his up-tempo dance music and began to slowly peel off the layers of clothing after his vigorous routines, thrilling fans with his little striptease parade.

"Do you want it? Come and get it," Rain cooed as he gave an impish grin and defiantly put on a parka jacket over his black singlet, much to the disappointment of his fans who were hoping to see him flash more skin.


With his entourage of 10 dances, Rain floored the stadium with his smooth, sexy dancing skills and pelvic thrusts while caressing his female dancers in a slow dance rock song.

Conferred the title of 'The World's Most Influential Person 2011' by Time Magazine, Rain continued to tease fans again with LIVE behind-the-scenes footages playing on the giant screens when he proceeded to strip and change out of his singlet backstage. When it came to his pants however, Rain wagged his finger in disapproval and redirected the camera away to his table of bling-bling accessories instead.

While concertgoers were promised a spectacular show with a highly-acclaimed two-and-a-half-minute rain sequence made possible by 1,000 litres of water, the highlight of the night was perhaps during the romantic solo serenade of 'My Girl'.


A lucky Malaysian fan called Lilian was invited to join him on stage after a teary-eyed young toddler in pink rejected the Korean performer's invitations. Defeated by the young child's refusal, Rain pointed to her and declared, "I'm waiting for you," prompting shrill cries of envy from the 5,000-strong crowd.

Working the crowd effortlessly with his charms, Rain got the entire stadium standing on their feet at his cue as they danced "left and right" together to retro vibe tunes such as 'With You' after a little cajoling.


Towards the end of the concert, as if refusing to let a minor sound system glitch rain on his parade, the Korean star was all cool as he re-sang 'It's Raining' and thanked fans for their support.

"Thank you for coming. It's my honour. I'm so happy to be here. I really love Singapore, chili crab, butter crab, I love everything. It's amazing," he cried out.

And before the final curtain call, Rain tried his luck again on the same young lass who refused his advances earlier during the concert, and was met with a smile and a wave in return. You got to give him props for putting on a great show and for entertaining fans despite a poor turnout and lackluster ticket sales.
