Meet the 2nd Rain – Yang Dong Sun

0911 yang dong sun

Since Rain has been MIA ever since he returned from Germany, the media is taking Yang Dong Sun, Banana Boat’s rapper as his replacement. Yang is now referred as the 2nd Rain because of his small eyes and similar facial features. Media’s obsession with 2nd whatever is always amusing, but I think this tops all 2nd wannabes. What a slap in the face for Rain! Can Yang live up to his 2nd Rain title?

Can Yang Dong Sun live up to the 2nd Rain title?
1) Why not? – At this point, anybody can live up to 2nd Rain title cauz it ain’t much
2) Not in a million years – nobody can replace my RainyView Results

    Lame comparison.

    He’s got too much of an overbite to look like him. Even though Rain isn’t that good looking, at least he doesn’t look like that even with a goofy haircut. Aesthetically speaking of course. Maybe he’s got the talent or desperation or whatever.

    I love how everyone comes to tear the poor guy down. lol All some has to say is “the 2nd Rain” and the carnage starts. Poor guy. His solo career would be over before it even begins. Personally I think Wheesung beats all of them because he can actually sing.

    @Eve, he actually came as KangIn’s friend in Idol World, not EunHyuk’s.

    No offense. I don’t really know about him, but he looks like a geeky Asian guy who just got a “cool” make-over or something? He looks absolutely out of place and uncomfortable! The bite-the-glasses pose? It just looks like he’s trying too hard! Poor guy. He looks like a sweetheart and all but…
    Calling him the next Rain? Hahaha, if it HELPS his career! I’m sure he has some talent though, right?!

    this new guy’s picture is mesmerizing. after a few hours of staring, he’s starting to look like the bastard child between rain and WILL SMITH.

    nononononono. he looks like rain???????!!!!!! are you blind? no way. he is cute in a goofy way but rain is fine!! they look nothing alike. rain’s eyes are smaller than yang dong’s, rain has very strong bone structure and a great tan. why of all the people they would call him the second rain? why not the 2nd wheesung since he is a rapper.
