I`m a white american and i am sooooo sick of people saying how racist we are. WE ARE NOT RACISTTT. yeah there are some racist white people in america, but there are also racist asians, hispanics, europeans, africans, hatians, native americans, and so on. The majority of america is actually really accepting. If Jihoon oppa would realize here he seriously is a nobody. No one in america would know wtf Rain was if you asked the average person. Some would but not a great majority. He needs to step back, take a breath and go back to 2002 and debut all over again. Sorry Jihoon oppa :\ this is a whoollleee new ball game. Okay seriously.

Rain should have known better that the US market is one tough cookie to break. He is undeniably popular in Asia, but that is not a guarantee he'll penetrate Hollywood that easily. One factor may have been the language barrier but that should not be construed as discriminatory. I, for one, will not spend a single dime on someone to hear him sing in a language I couldn't understand. If Rain thinks that he can pull himself out of the hole by playing the race issue, he needs to wake up and smell the coffee.

He can not just blamed the US for discrimination. You know what i'm tired of people mentioning the US and racism, discrimination. Discrimination is everywhere not just in the US (and sometimes it's alot more serious than in the US). Racism didnt even start in the US. But anyways, Rain made a mistake using this excuse, it will only make it harder for people in the US to accept him afterward. Also, if you want to film in a US movie, of course you have to speak english. You can not just let one speak korean, one speak english, that doesnt make any sense.

Get the facts straight before you start making accusations and getting all bent out of shape. These are lies those were not his exact words, his words were twisted to make it sound like he was blaming it on racism, and wake up people racism still exist in a multicultural North America. A lot of it is hidden.... and I am Non-Asian. Barriers are created by differences in culture and languages, Mistreatments are caused by mistrust and fear. So have a heart, This young man is just like everyone he is trying to make a better life for himself. He is very ambitious. As for Micheal Jackson he is what he is one day he will have to answer to his Maker. If less people respond to these gossipy sites they would not be around.

FIRST popseoul must be happy...have they not accomplished their role as the devil's advocate? i know i'm restating an earlier comment but this IS a gossip site, can you really expect quality journalism? i don't believe such a standard exist for this type of "news". Keep that in perspective as you read anything on this site. SECOND I'd like to deal with the actual subject of this article: Rain. I do not speak korean so I'm unable to verify what's really being said, instead I want to address some of these [ridiculous] responses. When it comes to Rain I feel that I'm relatively unbias. I know who he is and feel that, within the k-pop circles he is presented as a top asian entertainer...i don't know enough to say if that's fair. I've also seen two of his dramas (one I really enjoyed the other I couldn't force myself to rewatch) and am aware of his music. I don't hate it but don't like it either b/c i'm not a fan of k/pop music. Like any other foreign entertainer I'd like him to be sucessful BUT i'm well aware of the limitations America poses to any new act. If he failed fine. If he needs to rethink his strategy fine. What I think is ridiculous is how people use this as an excuse to hate on him and to hate on others. have you not read the comments circulating between people? calling names, pulling stereotypes, and down right trashy racial comments? step back, if anyones the fool its not "drizzle"/Rain but all the idiots who are spreading hate to one another. Are you soo ignorant and self absorbed not see that YOU are the TRUE HYPOCRITE. people are entitled to their own opinions but not at the expense of hate. To honestly thrash one another with such lies small example of the ugliness that resides on the inside. step back and correct yourself first.
