 rain yearns for a daughter

 

 

It was Rain’s turn to appear on The Return of Superman after wifey, Kim Tae Hee, did so a few months back. It isn’t his first time since he is close to the Choovely family. It was Lee Beom Soo’s last day of filming for the variety show and the crew was at the movie set,Uhm Bok Dong, which stars Rain and is directed by the father-of-two. When Lee Beom Soo informed So Eul that Uncle Bi’s wife was Aunt Tae Hee, the girl replied, “She’s pretty.” The kids met her at an event a few months ago. Da Eul was totally charmed by Rain, and kept inviting him over to his place. Lee Beom Soo’s wife and Rain know each other from way back when she was his English tutor.

Rain said he would love a daughter like So Eul and later commented he thinks he would prefer a daughter over a son. doesn’t hurt when Baby Momma is supposedly the most beautiful woman in South Korea. I think their kid would be really cute, be it boy or girl. Hope to see a little one by the two running around soon. KBS didn’t upload the entire clip but you can see bits of Rain’s appearance below. He does seem quite a natural with kids.

This Is How Rain Responded When A Friend Tried To Go Clubbing With Him

 

 

On a recent broadcast of E Channel’s “Marriage Vacation”, Rain’s close friend Shin Seho tried to convince Rain to go clubbing with him.

Shin Seho is close friends with Rain because they used to be back dancers for Park Jin Young back in the day. Shin Seho is also married and they’re close with Rain and Kim Tae Hee as well.

 

 

Shin Seho called Rain and told him to come out and go clubbing because he was a free man tonight. His wife had left with the kid so he could hang out tonight. Rain simply said: “Just rest.”

 

 

 

He didn’t give up after Rain shot him down and kept trying to persuade him. Rain firmly replied by saying: “Look, this isn’t us from 20 years ago. Please think before you ask these things. I’m busy right now so I’m hanging up. Anyways say hi to the wife for me!”

After Rain hung up, everyone in the studio respected Rain by commending his mind set. Rain clearly doesn’t care about clubs now that he’s married with Kim Tae Hee!

***Well, for people who use their voice professionally, like RAIN being a singer the health of their voice matters more than anything. If you're a singer & also being an actor your voice is everything. An artist’s voice is a critical pillar of his or her career. The entertainment industry is rife with examples of celebrities who have secured insurance for their voices. Of course, celebrities insure all sorts of body parts – As a singer, your livelihood depends on your vocal ability.

More celebrities holding small, simple weddings

 

By Kim Jae-heun

People are familiar with celebrities holding wedding ceremonies at posh hotels filled with big crowds and paparazzi camera flashes blinding other celebrity visitors. But more singers and actors here are getting married in more private and smaller environments.

Singer-turned-actress Sung Yu-ri recently married professional golfer Ahn Sung-hyun secretly without notifying the public of their wedding. The location was not revealed and only their family members were invited.

Popular K-pop star Rain and actress Kim Tae-hee also married at a Catholic church in Bukchon Hanok Village, Seoul, in early January. In the picture Kim revealed, she wore a simple dress with wedding veil attached.

The new marriage trend comes from entertainers' hope to shun public attention on their private lives, particularly on their marriage, and to avoid a typical routine of putting on a show with an expensive wedding at a luxury hotel.

"Until five years ago, it became an issue who got married at which luxury hotel, wearing which designer dress. Now, more stars want to make their weddings special and meaningful and refuse to copy what other celebrities have done," an entertainment insider said.

"Some stars make their weddings private as they want to focus only on each other for the wedding day. If they reveal the ceremony, it could feel like their marriage is an extension of their entertainment activity with all the attention likely to follow."

Rain and Kim Tae-hee are becoming parents.

Kim Tae-hee's management announced this fact on the 23rd saying, "They got married on the 19th of January with so many blessings and now they've been blessed with a child on the way".

"Kim Tae-hee is 15 weeks pregnant and she will have to be careful for now. We thought it be best to let her fans and supporters find out directly from us rather than being told from other sources".

Kim Tae-hee made a surprise appearance on the KBS 2TV "Happy Together – Return of Superman" in December last year.

Lee Beom-soo and his children visited her in her waiting room and the actress looked at them with so much love in her eyes. She said, "I have two other siblings and my parents had a hard time raising us, but I liked it".

Lee Beom-soo asked if she wanted a boy or girl and she said, "I wanted a boy at first, but now I think a daughter who can also be your friend is preferable. I would like one boy and one girl if possible".

Kim Tae-hee, Rain to have a baby

 

One of the most iconic celebrity couples, recently wed singer-actor Rain and actress Kim Tae-hee, will become parents in the coming months.

Kim’s agency Ruach Entertainment revealed the news via a press release yesterday, in which it revealed that its client is currently 15-weeks pregnant.

“Before news of Kim’s pregnancy spreads as a rumor, we deemed it only right that we first report the news ourselves to fans of Kim and Rain. Kim will focus on her prenatal care until her delivery.”

The couple got married in January after a five-year relationship. Rain was jokingly nicknamed “Korea’s Most Hated Man” by netizens when he started his relationship with Kim, who is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful women in Korea.

Meanwhile, Rain will play the protagonist in the upcoming movie “Uhm Bok-dong,” which is based on a true story of a Korean cyclist active during the Japanese colonial era.

kim tae hee + rain expecting baby!!!!!

 

 

Boy, this couple doesn’t waste time. Kim Tae Hee’s management agency announced that the actress is about 15 weeks pregnant. That makes her due sometime late September or early October. The couple must be thrilled since both have openly expressed their desire to have a kid ASAP. Congrats and kudos to them for getting hitched and having a child all within the same year. I guess we can rule out Kim Tae Hee returning to dramaland for 2017 at least.
