Rain used to be my favorite K-pop artist, but I don't keep up with him anymore because he hasn't been putting much music out lately. Is he still as popular now as he was in the past? I don't hear much about him anymore. I feel like he hasn't really done much since he got out of the army a few years ago.

Music Video: Rain "The Best Present"
I really like this one. I like the ballad style and the dancing. I'm glad Rain has a new video out. I feel like I haven't heard anything from him in a long time.

Teaser: Rain (bi) "30 Sexy"
Rain is my favorite Korean singer.
I am so excited that Rain is making his comeback! I haven't heard any new music from him for 2 years because of his military service. He was released back in July of this year. He has a new album coming out in January of 2014!

Rain will release an album early next year!
I've missed new music by Rain. I have been crazy about Rain ever since I discovered his music in 2009. He has been on hiatus since 2011 due to serving in the military for 2 years.
Rain is currently recording an album. The release date hasn't been announced, but it will come out early in 2014.
Rain is currently holding concerts in Japan through November 28. I hope one day that Rain will do a World tour and that I will be able to attend a concert.

Psy: Sexiest Man in K-pop?
Read the original article: http://blogs.laweekly.com/westcoastsound/2013/07/sexiest_men_in_kpop_korea.php
Who are the sexiest men in K-pop? Ask 10 different people and you will receive 10 different answers. Everyone has their own criteria and preferences.
LA Weekly named Psy the sexiest man in K-pop. I like Psy, but I he wouldn't be on my list. They listed him as number one because he defies the stereotype of the majority of K-pop idols. They said:

"Armed with an acerbic wit and a knack for infectious anthems, the veteran hip-hopper proves you don't need to be a hottie with a body to have real swagger."
Go Psy!!
Top 10 Sexiest Men in K-pop
- Psy
- T.O.P (Big Bang)

Pop star Rain to be punished?
Read about it here: Pop star Rain to be punished over meeting actress
I was on the yahoo homepage today and this article was on the trending list.
Rain is one of my favorite artists in South Korea. .
______________________
Earlier this week there were a lot of stories coming out saying that Rain and actress Kim Tae-hee were dating. No one really knows if this is fact or fiction. Rain's agency hasn't said anything, but Tae-hee's agency said they have been dating for a month. The paparazzi took pictures of them meeting with each other last year
Rain is currently serving in the military. He will be punished because he is prohibited from having private meetings with people while he is in the military. Other people think that he is getting special treatment because he was able to meet with the actress.
The punishment has not been mentioned yet.

Movie Trailer: R2B:리턴투베이스 (R2B: Return To Base)
R2B:Return to Base is a Korean movie that will be released on August 15, 2012. I like Rain (bi) and he stars in the film. The movie is a remake of Red Scarf (1963). The main roles are played by Rain (Jung Ji hoon) and Shin Se-Kyung. Jung Ji Hoon plays the role of Tae-Yoon (fighter pilot). Shin Se-Kyung plays the role of Se-Young (mechanic). Other actors in the movie are: Yu Jun-Sang, Lee Ha-Na, Kim Sung-Su, Lee Jong-Suk, and Jung Suk-Won.
Plot:
Tae-hun is an Air Force pilot who is transferred to a combat flying unit after a dangerous air show demonstration. On the first day he meets Cheol-hui, the unit's top gun. Cheol-hui follows the rules, but Tae-hun is more free-spirited which causes conflict between them. Tae-hun becomes friends with his other colleagues. He falls in love with Se-young who is a mechanic. Tae-hun continues to be free-spirited and gets suspended. During a mission Dae-seo dies and Seok-hyeon disappears. Tae-hun blames Cheol-hui for the tragedy, but they eventually come to an understanding. Then they try to stop the war and rescue their missing comrade.
UPDATE March 31, 2013: The DVD was released in the USA under the name "Black Eagle" in March of 2013. The DVD has English subtitles. (I've added this to my Netflix list, but it hasn't been released on Netflix yet)

Music Video: Rain "Busan Woman"
Rain is my favorite Korean artist!! I'm sad that I never got to see him in concert. Right now he is touring Korea on his last tour before he enters his mandatory army service for 2 years. If I would have stayed in Korea this year I would have got to see him.

Korean Movie: 싸이보그지만 괜찮아 (I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK)
You can watch it here with English subtitles: I'm a Cyborg, but that's OK
I only watched this movie because Rain was in it. It's an okay movie, but it's kinda weird. (Rain plays the role of a guy in a mental hospital).The movie came out in December of 2006. It was the number one movie on opening weekend. The movie fell by 76% the 2nd weekend and was pulled from most screens shortly after.
Rain was nominated for and won Best New Actor at the 43rd Baeksang Awards.I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK won the Alfred Bauer Award at the 57th Berlin International Film Festival
Plot:
Convinced that she is not entirely human but in fact part android, Young-goon's health begins to deteriorate as she gives up eating food and instead decides to "charge her batteries" by administering electric shocks to herself via a small transistor radio. As her mental state continues to deteriorate, the troubled young woman takes to donning her grandmother's dentures and carrying on extended conversations with various machines around the mental health facility. Of course Young-goon isn't the only person suffering from a mental malady in this hospital, and it's not long before Il-soon, a young man with a penchant for wearing masks and a reputation for being anti-social, is admitted as well. A good-looking young man who sets about convincing his fellow patients that he has the power to absorb their personality traits, Il-soon gradually begins to develop a tender romance with the troubled Young-goon. Later, when hospital officials determine that the only way to save Young-goon is to administer electro-shock therapy, the treatment has the unusual side-effect of convincing the would-be android that she has been fully recharged and possesses the ability to fire bullets from her fingers. In reality, Young-goon's physical deterioration has become truly alarming. With little time to lose before the love of his life slides beyond the point of no return, Il-soon enlists the aid of his concerned fellow patients in getting Young-goon back on the path to good health
Cast:
Im Su-jeong as Cha Young-goon
Rain as Park Il-soon
Choi Hie-jin as Choi Seul-gi
Lee Yong-nyeo as Young-goon's mother
Yu Ho-jeong as Il-soon's mother
Kim Byeong-ok as Judge

G.NA and Rain's duet "What I want to do once I have a lover"
I like the song.
I'd love for Rain to be my lover. He seems to be such a sweet person, a genuine nice guy. I can't find anything bad about him. I'm a singer so I love men who can sing! (I need someone to introduce us to each other)

첫 번째 길거리에서 키스해 보기 두 번짼 말야 춘천행 새벽 기차
세 번째 소풍 가기 네 번째 등에 업히기 다섯 번째 커플링은 기본
boo boo boo 정말 달콤할 거야
왜 이렇게 두근 두근 두근 뛰니 생각만 해도
한 가지씩 매일 매일 매일 너와 다 해 볼 거야
난 네가 있어 하루가 즐거워 이제는 둘이라는 게
내 소중한 너 baby baby baby baby boo~

혼자였던 생일이 할 일 없던 주말이
이름 붙은 날들이 이젠 기다려져
둘이라서 좋아 함께라서 좋아
어디에 있든지 또 무얼 하든지 너와
나 그 중에 제일 제일 제일 하고 싶던 한 가지
널 사랑해 그 말 그 말 그 말 한 번 말해 보는 일
널 사랑해 그 말 그 말 그 말 한 번 들어 보는 일
내게 와 줘서 너무나 고마워 내 곁에 네가 있는 게
나만의 사랑 baby baby baby baby boo~

Rain is awesome!!
Tonight Rain, a popular South Korean singer and actor, won his first MTV award! He's the first native Korean to win an MTV award!
I don't normally watch award shows, but I watched just to see if he won! I wanted him to beat all the American actors!
He beat out American actors such as Angelina Jolie, Sam Worthington, Channing Tatum, and Chris Pine.
He won the award for "Biggest Badass" for his role in "Ninja Assassin". "Ninja Assassin" was his first leading role in an American movie.
The ceremony was held in California and aired on MTV at 8pm. It was also aired live in South Korea because he was nominated.
Congrats Rain!축하해 ! 난 니가 자랑스러워 !!
He was so cute and told a joke.

Rain "Love Song"
Here's the video (with English Subtitles):
_______________________________________
English Version below (only audio)(Why do the lyrics differ in the versions? Differences in translation?)
I've never heard the word "intolerable" in a love song..I don't think it was the right choice.
RAIN--I'LL HELP YOU WITH ENGLISH FOR FREE!
On April 9 KBS(a Korean TV channel) banned Rain's new music video called "Love Song."
why?
KBS banned it because Rain was running on a road which is considered a traffic law in Korea. Apparently, to KBS, running on roads while breaking the law is inappropriate for the public to see.
He only runs for 14 seconds on a road with no cars!
