Nice & cute FH bear. We missed this drama....but, do you think the couple would collaborate again? I'm sure BIKYO fans will drool all over again when this happens. Honestly, they were cute together in FH. But I think the "yell & shouts" there has to go.........

*** Time flies so fast! I remember back then when I read an article about his enlistment. Can't wait to see him walking out from the Department of Defence & say goodbye to army life forever! Phew!!! I miss him so much!

Hi willenette, you remind me of FH, gave me a little hope as a Bikyo fan but I must agree that "the "yell & shouts" there has to go......... "

Is March confirmed? That would be sooooo fantastic and already next month. Curious, if Rain will get a vacation after all.

Thanks dear! So it is a Korean model/actress after all.

Hi bbly, I think the movie release next month will go as planned - see, we're starting now to see the teaser & some new pictures. I just hope we could get to see more.....

Han Ji-woo and Rain in advertisement for Chinese cosmetics company

The two have already taken part in the shoot for the advertisement, Han’s agency, Tovis Media, said yesterday.

“The advertisement was shot in advance, before Rain entered into military service,” Tovis Media said.

Han talked about what it was like being on set with the Hallyu superstar.

“It was a bit awkward assuming a lovers’ pose with Rain, but he really went out of his way to make me feel at ease, and he was such a good leader,” she said. “Overall, I had a great time shooting the advertisement.”

Han won the Miss Korea pageant for Koreans who live in China back in 2007. Since then, she has starred in TV programs such as “Infinite Girls” (2010-12) and “Gyeback” (2011), as well as the movie “Jungle Fish 2” (2010).

Rain began his military service in October of last year. The Hallyu star staged a farewell concert just before he went into the Army. By Carla Sunwoo

I hope it will be released next month. If yes, then we should see soon a trailer.

[anjjo]

anjjo, this is the reason why technology gadgets are not allowed in the military - this is also the reason why military restricts soldiers access to the public even to their family & loved-ones, causing concern among military leaders that high military secrets could be leaked. I read that now more than 500,000 males are enlisted. I heard that mobile phones now are allowed inside the military but it depends on the base where you’re stationed. A lot of bases now have regular Internet access, although a lot of them (particularly those on the front line) do not, where RAIN is right now. Completely free Internet access is generally not available, given the understandable security concerns. You see, after the four-week basic training is over, the soldiers now are generally free to use the phone after the day's schedule is over. Isn't this an improvement?

About this Fugitive photo you posted, how I missed the drama, I miss RAIN! You know, I find RAIN is so HOT here every time he rides in a motorcycle. I love everything in this drama except the so many “flashbacks”….. RAIN in this drama had done mostly his own stunts so, I would give him A+. This is an action drama, the story isn’t supposed to be that important (or good). Yet the series was filled with great characters (no flat supporting roles here). The drama has a great opening and ending scene even in-between scenes.

Thanks willenette, again for these infos giving us ideas how Rain is faring at his military life. I hope he is doing well.

Yeah, I agree, Fugitive has so many “flashbacks”.

Shin Seong Woo : a popular singer, actor, and sculptor.

He is recently performing in a musical, and he worked with Rain in KBS drama "Sangdoo, Let's Go To School."

- Only Rain part -

0:42~45

'Shin Seong Woo' enjoys having time for a hobby, traveling by motorcycle with his junior Rain who is also a motorcycle lover.

0:46~1:00

'Shin Seong Woo': Once Rain poured out his troubles, "I have too little free time." His unhappiness was understandable. Hence, his tastes are congenial with mine.

When Rain told me, "Your motorcycle looks much better than mine.",

I (cheaply) flogged it to him.

Now Rain is looking at Shin Se Kyung with loving eyes?

One can hope.

On October 6th, your Kpopfever.com reported “So Ji Sub’s loving eyes towards Han Hyo Joo“ with a picture to support.

Interestingly enough, a similar photo has been found of Rain and Shin Se Kyung. At the production report of the movie ‘Soar: close to the sun’ at Shinsegae Department Store at Centum city, Busan, Rain and Shin Se Kyung were posing for photos and a similar scene took place in parallel with the So Ji Sub-Han Hyo Joo photo.

Later on at the report, there was another picture of Rain and Shin Se Kyung very much with the same smile on their faces and the same pose making them appear very in synch.

One can guess that working on a project for a while and being so close together does have its side effects whether there really is something going on or not in real life.

Hi willenette, too, another publicity stunt? Anyway, let's pretend to bite for the sake of the movie that we are so very eager to watch. Shin Se Kyung always call Rain hyung in their tweets and I believe they are on a close brother-sister relationship, but as the article says "One can guess . . . " heheh

[Eng.trans] A little story about Rain who serves in the military.

English translation by 화니. - rain-cloud.co.kr/

어느 까페에서 누가 자기 친구 동생이래나 형이래나..암튼, 비느랑 같은 생활관 쓰는데취침전 소등을 막내가 하는데

불끄기전에 비느한테 노래시킨다고매일밤 공짜 콘서트를 본다는 글이 있더라고.. 어느정도 신빙성이 있는지 몰라서

안가져왔지지금은 지워지고 없더라암튼, 그래서 믿거나 말거나지만 찾아봤더니취침쇼 라는게 있긴 있더라 ㅋㅋㅋ

막내들이 소등하기전, 말하자면 재롱도 부리고 재있는 얘기도 하고 그러는가봐

다른 사병들과 똑같이 대하라고 그랬다면서 ,, 그래서 똑같이 시킨다고 ㅋ

According to a posting on a website blog a few days ago, someone's friend's brother is

in the same barrack with Rain.

Before going to sleep, the newest soldier usually turns off the lights.

Whenever Rain's mates ask him to sing for them or tell them a funny story before

the lights are turned off, he does their favor with pleasure, so they can have a lovely time

while enjoying a great performance for free or hearing such a story.

It is said Rain believes he is the same as they are and should be treated as such, so they

treat him no differently from anyone else..keke..

***According to what cindy translated from RainLegend, it talks about RAIN's gun skills - It has been reported that his shooting score was that 19 out of 20 at day time and 10 out of 10 at night training in the military. As the result he gained the perfect score and also selected as a top marksman there. He was the top 3 among the participated trainees of 140. Thanks again cindy for doing the translation.....

Thanks willenette, again for these infos giving us ideas how Rain is faring at his military life. I hope he is doing well.

Based from the recent picture we saw it seems that RAIN has been adjusted to military life already. I hope when the time of his discharge comes, he’ll have a packed comeback : a drama, an album, & a fanmeet on the day of his discharged. Is this asking too much?

***You know, every time I looked at his military picture then looking at his black crew-cut hair, I just miss his coloured-hair. But, I don't want him to go blonde, huh? Remember that year when RAIN went blonde? This was probably the most unexpected surprise he could ever make. Did you ever expect RAIN to dye his hair blonde? Well, it suits him. Every style & colour looks good on him. But I think the brown hair looks better.

Se7en Talks T.O.P and Rain on ′Wide Entertainment News′

2012-02-10 CJ E&M enews

Se7en has been making his promotional rounds on various music programs since his successful return to the music scene with the Park Jin Young-produced single When I Can′t Sing, and no topic was off limits when he recently sat down with Mnet’s Wide Entertainment News.

The singer appeared on the February 9 broadcast of the show ahead of his M Countdown comeback on the same day where he revealed which YG artist he thought was the most handsome and talked about his relationship with singer Rain.

When asked whom he considered to be the most handsome artist in his agency, Se7en responded, “I personally like the way I look. I personally like my face.”

However, in the end, he decided to give first place to T.O.P, citing the Big Bang rapper’s “charismatic gaze” as one of his reasons.

The MCs then caught the singer off guard when they asked him if thought he thinks he’s doing better than singer Rain. Se7en revealed, however, that he remains close to the singer, who is currently dutifully completing his mandatory military service.

Hi willenette, here's one collage from Full House -

No, my dear, you are not asking too much, actually you forget to include a Hollywood movie for him, since as reported, he had many offers which he was not able to accept because of his enlistment. I am sure all your wish will be granted with us his fans supporting him. Remember these caps from ALTK, -
