[Guest shinebi]

This was taken in New York, isn't it? I remember that pink turtleneck (not many men can pull that shade of pink off like him).

sorry gals, I don't mean to bring this back up but... I was kinda curious hehe... yeah this was in NY because I was there when he walked in wearing this outfit.... anyways, if Bi has a girlfriend, he must be happy! And I am happy for him.. though I wish I was his girlfreind... heheee.. either me or SHG all the way!!

While busying himself with the script, Rain doesn't forget his original identity of a singer. He is now occupied with the 2 Japanese singles and full album due to release in Japan between June to August this year. Recording of the album goes on in the recording studios of JYPE late into the nights.

According to JYPE, Rain will be releasing his Japanese album in August followed by his fourth Korean album in October.

Ch to Eng: Rayndrop

Thanks for the translation, Sam! So filming for Cyborg has been pushed back (again) to April? Geez, that kinda screws up Bi's sched... though good for him, in a way. At least he's got a relatively lighter sched now, a little more time to rest and re-charge before plunging into another insane work schedule.

===

Welcome back, Amee!

[jinlees]

Jin can you give the link to baidu.. I want to help to.. anything and evrything for Bi

Bam, you want to join the big party too?

Here is the link: (the biggest bi forum I believe)

http://post.baidu.com/f?kw=rain

Jin thanks for the latest news about uri Bi. ^This one is about JYP's audition for new talents?

My computer got virus few days back, and it made me realize that I seriously need to get a life lol. I couldn't stop thinking about things I would have missed about Bi etc. I was so lost and desperate for a fix those few days.....I am a Bi-junkie.

Naoise, yes, that's the JYP audition for new talents, shows like "American idol"

a Bi-jinkie? I found most biers like junki too...interesting

did i read this right?? another japanese album??

aside from Sad Tango??

Yes, that's bi's another Japanese album aside Sad Tango.

To biers in US/Canada,

The total cost (include shipping fee) for bi's picture collection&DVD from HMV.co.jp is around 105 US$

While yesaisa.com asks for about 139 US$. Moreover, orders in hmv is counted to be sales number.

摄影师眼底下的Rain

李宰润，韩国娱乐界知名摄影师，一手打造了Rain第三辑，Ivy第三辑，　Bada第一辑以及LG Telecom (裴勇俊，全智贤，孙艺珍，SE7EN), SK Telecom, KTF等一系列的宣传海报。他生动地呈现了明星每一个耀眼的瞬间，　把最具规模的视觉冲击带给观众。　

Rain第三专辑（It's Raining)幕後插曲～封套拍摄

在我拍摄过的这麼多作品中，Rain第三辑的封套拍摄是我最记忆犹新的。最初只是确定下来将要拍摄的这组相片是为Rain的第３辑而准备，本来构思好几个设想之後，没想到又发来消息说　”这组相片还将在Rain的X-NOTE这个笔记本的CF中使用。”　事实上，当一套图片被赋予两种主题时，构思起来就相当困难了。

之後，Rain也主动参与了进来。他是一位很有主见的艺人，有自己的想法，而且说腹他并不是一件容易的事。这一点给我的印像最为深刻。

Rain那天带来１０套衣服，但他说：”我想，我们没必要全拍一遍，我看选择几套就可以了。”　比起其他明星为了保险起见带来１０套至少要换８套相比，他显得非常特立独行。 看著Rain认真选择衣服的样子，我想可能他对自己的风格和类型是最了解的。 实际上以他的身材来看，衣服在他身上也只是起著一个陪衬的作用。 但像他这样对任何事都如此一丝不苟，真的可以算是我见过的比较出众的明星的其中之一了。

^cyborg filming? not sure but wasn't it mentioned a few pages back that filming would start on the 21st, which is today? or i'm just getting my dates confused haha

from RB of RainPH, to Kate and Blossomblue and all the Thai fans who warmly welcomed everyone who went to BKK.

RB also dedicates this to fans from Korea, Japan, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia & Indonesia who went to Thailand to watch the concert (and if there were fans from Australia, America and Europe too)

thanks you so much for these nice pic ....

sorry that i ask :blush: are these real stamps you can use ???? sorry if my question is stupid :blush:

...

What do you think?? Does Bi bring the stage act (theatre) into his acting..

does anyone else here think he need to tone down his expression esp - anger

and crying ?? (personally I love them - but there's a few occassion I think

he could improve if he tone down the expression - I will capture the scene

tonite and post here....

BTW - Girls - I know you love him and you know I love him.. so

be objective about this okay - no throwing tomato around.. I don't wanna to have to clean

the mess - BTW - I am trying to steer everyone from miss orange topic..

Male fans' comments on Rain from pantip.com

Just wanna share this with everyone. Here're comments on Rain by some of his brand new male fans. Rain has successfully won a lot of male fans after his BKK concerts. Before the concerts, most guys here looked down on him and thought that only girls and gays would like the likes of Rain. And Rain's topics on pantip.com used to always belong to girls. But now, they know him better.....there're male fans' topics on Rain too... YEAH!!! (I feel like having a victory!!! LOL )

===========================================

Comment #1 Watching Rain's music video made me surprised. The greatest production!!!

I first watched Rain in a video where there's rain falling down and he danced like crazy. I was so amazed!! What a dam*ed great dance he had!!! Afterthat, I had a chance to watch his other MVs, his interviews on TV, the concert's coverages, I was so amazed how come one singer could come up with this much potential. Really great dance!!! Although, his figure is rather big, still he can dance very smooth. And his dance step is not easy too. This great singing, this great dancing, plus this good-looking, MAN! I have never seen someone like him before!!!!!

The latest music video that I watched is Sad Tango. I was, again, amazed that Korean music scene might have advanced to Mars already, great light, color, video shots... It's even better than some western MVs. Anyway, the thing that makes the video most fun and most interesting to watch, is indeed, Rain's dance. What a darn great dance!!

Well, yeah...I started this topic just to praise on Rain....'cause I was so amazed. And indeed, I think Rain has loads more good stuffs to talk about than Justin Timberlake.

From : Raymond - [ 19 Mar 49 ]

Comment #2

Rain is great, yeah! But to tell that this is the greatest production , is overated.

From : gmat032

===========================================

Comment #3

That sad tango PV.... that dam*d dance step where he waved his cloak and when he danced alone doing step with his hands...have stuck in my mind til now.

the greatest production , is overated. ---> Not overated at all. That PV is comparable with a lot of western MVs out there.

From : luv - [ 19 Mar 49 02:47:09 ]

Comment #4

I like Sad Tango MV very much esp. the ending scene.

From : Typhoon No.29 - [ 19 มี.ค. 49 02:51:28 ]

Comment #6

He's darn cool. At this minute, I think he's No.1 in Asia.

From : Toddy&Hammy - [ 19 มี.ค. 49 03:10:33 ]

===========================================

Comment #45

I'm one of those who like and admire Rain's abilities. Last 2 years, at that time I only admired Wang Lee Hom and Zhou Jie Lun for their musical talents and they have been listed among my favourite Asian artists (X, LArc, Mika, Hikki, etc). And with my misundertood...I thought most fans (which weren't these many yet) liked Rain because they thought he was handsome (?), cute (?), or something like that. And yeah, at that time I admit that I only just began to listen to KPOP. I listened but didn't dig them like JPOP or CPOP. But now I came to know about his struggling pre-debut life and got my hands on his works which were made out of his talents. I can tell you right now that I admire him as an artist very much. That strong dance step but soft at the same time... and also his powerful vocal (I think his vocal is very unique) ..all these stuffs have become clear to me why he's famous.

thanks for steeling and translating kate ...yes yes have the same feeling as you ... like a personal victory when bi has success :blush:

[Guest kate666]

thanks you so much for these nice pic ....

sorry that i ask :blush: are these real stamps you can use ???? sorry if my question is stupid :blush:

RB made it. She's created a lot of Rain's stamp series. And this with BKK pics is the latest one. I just hope that the Korean post will consider releasing Rain's stamps one day...hehehe.

[Guest xxcrazy_onexx]

.. everyone thought Bi could strike a good chemistry with SMA since they knew each other well b4 the series, but as much as i loved Bi in IJUKSA, i juz didn't see that great a chemistry btwn them..

i would definately have to agree with you on that, i didnt see good chemistry between them at all, he did much better with SHK and the girl from Sangdoo

a few of the scenes from IJUKSA with bi and SMA were just awkward

although i LOVED THEIR KISSES :blush: ..haha how daring was he?

i cant wait to watch IJUKSA again!!! hahaha

[Guest kky2k]

Kate: Thank you so much!! It's great to see that even guys are finally giving Rain the recognition he deserves.

PuccaGirl_64: JYP mentioned October for his English album when they were here. Hopefully, that is still the case. More but less clothing..yipBI!
