Pop o’ link: What others are saying about Rain

204.jpg

  • As usual, Koreans are over-reacting to Colbert’s piece on Rain because they don’t understand Colbert and what it means to be sarcastic. Javabeans
  • It’s been rumored that Rain will join the Wachowski brothers in the movie Speed Racer. Nothing is officially confirmed yet, but it’s being reported as it is in Korean media. BeyondHollywood
  • Rain secretly helped a cancer patient in memory of his mother last year. The modest singer commented that anybody in his position would have helped out. Shenyuepop

While reading about Rain, all I could think of was the need for Rain to perfect his English asap…

    OMG, I’m sOoo excited! I’m definitely going to watch it next year. I don’t care if he has one line in the entire movie–I’m there!

    Wow, Rain is getting more & more attention nowadays. It looks like it’s true–he WILL make a successful jump in the U.S.! Go Rain!!

    The picture is absolutely beautiful, but what’s up with the fat guy laying in the sand wearing baby blue speedo? haha!

    It’s seems that Rain is too good to be true. This kid is too damn nice, let hear some trash…j/p

    well good for him if he gets the role.

  7. 7 tok2006 May 17, 2007 at 12:15 am

    no, no, it is not Spain, snif, snif, snif!!

    in Spain nobody wears a wool cap on the beach!!! jijiji!

    lyn..u want to hear some trash! ok here it goes!! Rain may be a good singer and dancer..anyway he dance better then he sings.. he’s lucky to be in the right management.. it’s HOW they promote him..but not as a actor, he sucks big time!..all his shows is a flop..accept Full House, even for FH its not that fantastic, may be bcoz of Song Hye Kyo that grab people attention..so there u have it ‘trash’

    wow kid, I wasn’t asking to be vicious. I just wanted to hear some news that Rain pushed down a granny or swore at his fans. He’s good at being a celebrity, all the slack he gets, I’m impressed on how he’s handling it.

    Personally, I think his acting his fine. I’m not really a fan. I watch some of his dramas and music. I don’t like it all. For the dramas that flopped, it’s not just him. I’ve never watched Sang DOO, go to school or A love to kill because it sounded stupid. I don’t think it was just Rain, plot?

    “he’s lucky to be in the right management.” I have to disagree here. No matter how hard you try you can’t promote shit. People are not stupid.

    LOL~ a rain anti fan~ personally am not really a big fan of rain but i must say that he’s a hardworker and i give him props for that [not to mention a cutie,LOL!] that colbert parody was amusing anyways~ but its creating a havoc amongst koreans, sad :(

  11. 11 kid May 17, 2007 at 2:33 am

    hey lyn!..pushing down a granny is a serious crime! it’s MURDER!! haha ha!… yah! maybe push down his 75 year old granny fan hahaha! and of coz a person must have ’substance’ in order to survive in the entertainment industry..anyway i still think luck is on his side plus he is hardworking..anyway i still dont like him!! i have others to love..

  12. 12 nita May 17, 2007 at 5:08 am

    really, I’m a rain’s fan, but I enjoyed so much colbert’s video (I didn’t know colbert before this as I’m french), it actually made me like rain a little bit more. Korean media are overreacting way too much.

  13. 13 Nesan May 17, 2007 at 5:09 am

    Definitly Rain is beatyflu person, and Clolbert does not understand that Rain won because it could come to the people with his good actions and professional achievements.

    For its all i’m your fan.

    Great

    tok2006 eres de España??? XD Pero es verdad no hay nadie así por aquí jejej

  15. 15 olivia May 17, 2007 at 7:54 am

    matthew fox (a.k.a the sexiest man alive) is the greatest actor ever, so it would be downright fabulous to see him and rain together in a movie. i’m excited if it’s true.

    and i loved the colbert video.

  16. 16 mindy May 17, 2007 at 8:53 am

    i dont see why koreans are making such a big deal about the colbert thing, if rain makes it in the us they’ll be way more of it, so they might as well get use to it

  17. 17 tokuseuri May 17, 2007 at 9:41 am

    Honestly, they need to get over it. Bi has seen it himself and he has publicly said he found it hilarious.

    Then again, they need SOMETHING to whine over. whatever.

  18. 18 scotty May 17, 2007 at 12:59 pm

    you go, rain! i’m happy for his successful endeavors thus far and hopefully he’ll become more popular in the u.s. as time goes on. thankfully the u.s. is a place where people from any country can have huge success if they try hard enough.

  20. 20 mingzhu May 17, 2007 at 7:56 pm

    Whoa.. miscommunication and misinterpretation I guess. ^^;

    I like Rain– maybe not his acting (sorriez..>

  21. 21 mingzhu May 17, 2007 at 7:56 pm

    Agh, it cut my message. Continuation would be is that I love his performances and songs.

  22. 22 alyssa May 23, 2007 at 2:36 pm

    he is very trying to make a big name/popular in america…

  23. 23 Julienne May 29, 2007 at 11:18 pm

    Hello Popseoul Team!
    I am from France, as I was in China as an exchange student, a Korean friend I met there (half the exchange students were Korean!…)told me about Rain. Since last semester I try to know more about him (and some other Korean stars). I like Rain /Bi a lot!! You guys are doing a doing a great job with this blog! I have to say some people misundestood the title of his tour: it should be “Rain’s World” Tour and Not - Rain’s “World Tour” since he did not come to Europe… :-P I do hope he can make it one day though!
