The hardest time in Rain’s life was not when all of his US concerts were cancelled and fled to Berlin, but when rumors about his suicide spread like wild fire among the Chinese Netizens in April of 2006. It hit him hard when he first encountered the rumor but he learned to let it go as he started to pity those who started the rumor.
Actually Rain, it’s us who pity you because you still don’t seem to have a grasp of reality.
But if you still want to hear him brag about his past successes, workouts and English studies, check out Rain’s interview on OBS Kyungin TV on January 12th.
Pop in:
Rain will not sing for the 2008 Olympics
Will Rain be the voice of 2008 Beijing Olympics?
Rain wins CineAsia Awards for Star of the Year
Rain throws a punch but no one cares
Hmm.. Why would that stress him that much if it wasn’t true? I’d think he’s rumor with Lee Hyori would be more stressful, or his failed US concerts…
his rumor*
Yeah you here that RAIN??! you better get a GRIP on REALITY before we blog about you more harshly! Suffer our pity!
I don’t think he used as strong of words about that as you are reporting… Any excuse to criticize him even if it’s not true.
the writer twisted the meaning of what rain said from the original interview . she just wants to get some talking point and let people make more comments .
I didn’t even hear about the rumor.
About his suicide? Wtf?
Anyways. I heard about that Hyori thing.
Wtf x48374739574.
Why would anyone ever say that they slept with Hyori.
Way lame.
Well,
it seems like reporters just love to write about him even when he’s not in Korea.
Damn, I honestly wouldn’t want to hear about him until he did something big and successful. Like when Speed Racer came out or something. I could wait till April or whenever it comes out to hear about him again.
^^ did you really read the article??
it says “check out Rain’s interview on OBS Kyungin TV on January 12th.”
the interview will just be aired on jan. 12, and articles about it are just promotions, so whether or not he really rain really said it, or the media twisted some things or obs itself so that the ratings will go higher who knows
Wow, several posts on Rain over the last few days. Popseoul, no other items of interest? I’m getting tired of Rain. Really.
Rain’s a good target for ppl bcoz he’s in the spotlight a lot… I still hope for the best for him!
He’s becoming really famous just like Britney and Paris
what’s up with all the rain bashing? i have a feeling that many of this bashing comes from the fact that he is like the BoA male equivalent in terms of status. if you don’t like him because of his singing or dancing then it’s fine. but to bash someone because of (might i hazard a guess)envy/spite is quite childish.
there was such rumor?? Popseoul wasn’t bashing rain..sheesh..it’s a good publicity for rain..cause to me he’s boring
such negativity to Rain…most of the post about him is negative…can you try to write a postive one…aish!! seriously getting tired of reading his bashing.
he should really let go of the rumors and instead focus on learning how to speak english. when i saw his clear commercial, i distinctively heard him say “Im Waine”…geez and all this time i thought his name was rain:-)
rain = <33333333333 i’m supporting you rain!
@juanlucas
i watched the clear commercial many times and he
said clearly ” i’m rain ” . if someone wants to
pick on him then it doesn’t matter how he tried his best , you’ll find something to pick on him
This post barely makes sense in English and is old news…
i like rain and all,
but seriously i don’t get why so many of you are complaining to popseoul regarding their bashing on rain or any other celebrities. it’s up to them who they want to write about, so complaining about it won’t change that fact. if you can’t handle their critism, then simply don’t visit here. -_-
I don’t get this post. Just because he was saddened or what, or as according to your post, it him hard, you’re saying he can’t handle false rumors? I’m guessing you just wanted him to say that he’s more saddened by the cancellation of his world tour or whathaveyou.
It was April 2006, so there were already problems with the world tour. He may have thought that he people think he did that because of the problems with the WT. He might just have been concerned.
And I have to agree to one post, it hasn’t aired yet. I know a lot of shows where the articles are not really true on the show. It’s all promotion. And I have seen that in many of Rain’s guestings.
rain is homo, there you go i started another baseless rumour. DEAL WITH THAT RAIN!!
for a homo he sure lays down more girls in a week than you could in a lifetime
Talk about taking things out of context; whatever.
“it’s us who pity you because you still don’t seem to have a grasp of reality.”
That’s funny coming from Popseoul. haha.
Actually this time I feel Popseoul wasn’t bashing Rain. But I never knew about this rumor though.
hm i dont get this article …but POPSEOUL please can you write some more postive articles and stop bashing artists
maybe he’s all upset that he sucks at english and his american debut is doomed to fail.
i think popseoul would write more positive articles if there was anything positive about drizzle.
people aren’t ‘picking on him’. he brings this stuff onto himself.
where’s the suicide story that I missed?? ^^
… i dont see why people are pittying rain
i honestly dont get it
hes such a successful celebrity
he has some bad moments but so did eveyrone else
why is everyone picking only him to criticize and not any
other celebrity
yea it pisses me off because rain is a great singer and dancer
please write something more encouraging to our favorite singers
its frustrating to read something about bad about rain and only rain
agree…
What is sucide rumor anything to do with US debut???
*suicide
let him be. he’s too much of a target for people to bash on. i mean, he’s not THAT much of a bad person.
i used to like rain when he used to have shorter hair. he looked more handsome.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLTCa-wEk_M&feature=related you might wanna check this out if you want to hear rain speaking english, i honestly think he has a gangster tone and more like an american accent than korean accent.. i think it’s really cute, well, i dont think he’s bad…
yeah true what some users say on here
this article doesn’t makes sense
Aww.. poor rain
@ roze15’s link: LOL!!! LMAO!!! HELL NAW!!! I REALLY hope his English has improved since then…That was like, 2006 though, so his English SHOULD be exceptional now (2 yrs later…>_>)
But ne wayz, I never heard of the suicide rumor before…so if Rain really committed suicide, I’d just die from crying…lol and then think he was the lamest person in the world. *sigh* when will Rain shape up and return to his former glory?
BTW…he looks pretty ugly in the above pic…God, with all of the Rain posts so far, you think popseoul could have found at least ONE good picture of Rain…He’s been looking quite homely lately…
goddamn stinky chinese people
i do enjoy reading popseouls post…there is both bashing and news but lately i just feel like its more of korean entertainment bashing instead of korean entertainment news…
k
I, for one, if famous, would be kind of worried too, if a bad false rumor spread about me and people actually believed it! I guess that shows how pathetic I would be, if I were rich and famous. XD It’s good to know he let it go, and pitied the person(s) who spread the rumor…
okay, my bad. I’ll correct myself. it was april 2006, so WT is has not yet started. Just goes to show how old news the world tour is. I even thought it happened 2006. Ha!
And yeah, that’s not a flattering pic, but that’s taken from a video so there was movement involved. bad angle, i have to say.
But again, I don’t get this post. And people ARE picking on him - and yes, he also brings this to himself. It’s just that whatever it is he’s bringing to himself-good or bad- haters would still pick on him.
rocketfuel you should talk, your blog is terrible… LOL
Rocketfuel likes to talk $hit about other blogs when his is one of the crappiest, hardly a soul even knows about it.
Did he talk about suiside rumor in that interview???
lol & deerk,
I am to fail!
My blog does suck, however, that doesn’t mean I can’t talk $hit about other blogs.
OK move on Rain. Basically, in truth you once thought of suicide. It is OK I think some people have thought about it to. No big deal now move on and improve your English!
He didn’t think about committing suicide.
That was just a rumor. *sigh*
Read again, please. Dear.
SUICIDE?
ppfffff
people don´t know what more to said about him!
¬¬
this is my first time on this site, and as i scoll down, why do i get the feeling that the person/s writing these articles does not like rain at all?
lol

Because Koreans don’t have anything “news”worthy to talk about anyway…So why not talk about how much they suck? LOL

I am neither Korean nor Chinese…
But I think you sound racist…
rain rocks!!!!!!!!!
-__-
There’re many negative news about him, it was becoz Rain is the spotlight and his actual personality is nice that’s why i think media like make it up some bad rumor. Sometime people tend to love bad boy than nice one.
But i do love Rain <3 And he’s nice, i love his smile
