Next Entertainment Visionary - Rain

Please read the translation in English Talk of the Cloud cafe.

Excerpts:

People who read the spirit of the times and drive changes. They use their own vision to open new future. We call them visionary.

 

Rain’s story: An artist who took on the subculture to become the centre of popular culture.

 

Rain: “Up until last year, I didn’t know much about internet and digital culture. My staff and friends showed me the Gang meme. When I first saw it, I was wondering what was so funny that people left so many comments under the MV.

 

They included my long time fans, teens, and people who had no interest in me. They were united by one song.”

 

“We knew it is not easy to get 1000 comments in any portal site, but my Gang MV comments came in 4000, 5000, 6000s. So I sat still and read the comments

one by one. In between fun and curiosity, I played along with them. I wanted to try one more time. Let’s provoke, let us start a fire together.”

 

“I made the content which I wanted to be successful. When it was being denounced and criticised, of course I didn’t feel good. But if you looked carefully, the many criticisms actually meant people’s interests in you, which transcended generations. And I realised this was the answer for future business.”

“the job of a celebrity is to bring laughs to people, the so called joy and sorrow. I have been in my job as Rain for 20 years, and I have done my best, and will do my best until the day I die.”

 

Quote of Rain at a press conference in 2009 when he debuted in Hollywood,“Success or not is not important. You need someone to knock and break the wall.”

12 years after, Rain: “I remembered that. What I said then is still valid now. I think as an artist, you need to take challenge continuously. From my trial and error, instead of frustration, I gained knowhow, and I am thankful about that.

 

I am very happy that I was the first runner in the US market.”

 

A star who turned the commotion in the digital world into a real life syndrome. The Gang protagonist who carried the meme perfectly. An artist who opened the future through the past. Rain, Jung Jihoon.

Reveal a 16-year-old student ID photo! Rain is very young

 

https://www.instagram.com/p/CKP4UauBb14/?igshid=127xerhlyob6d&utm_source=fb_www_attr

 

 

 

It has been 18 years since the South Korean superstar Rain (Jung Ji-hoon) made his debut. He has attracted countless fans and still has a high popularity. Recently, his new song "Switch To Me" released in collaboration with his mentor Park Jin-young has once again made him a topical figure. At the age of 38, he also posts adorable photos on IG from time to time. Today (January 20), Rain posted another photo of him when he was a student, when he was 16 years old, and netizens praised him for his youthful appearance.

 

After Rain posted his student ID photo on his IG, he also wrote: "I found my student ID." It was his student ID when he attended Anyang Art High School in 1998. I saw him in the photo. He was youthful and innocent during his student days.  In fact, there is not much different from what it is now more than 20 years later.

 

 

 

Netizens praised it even more: "So cute", "I'm heartbroken", "He doesn't seem to have changed much", "Still very handsome", "Sure enough, it is the genes of youthful beauty", etc., It has accumulated 70,000 likes in just 2 hours. Awesome.

曝光16歲學生照 ！ Rain童顏依舊

 

南韓天王Rain（鄭智薰）出道至今已有18年，吸粉無數，人氣至今仍佔據高位，最近他跟恩師朴軫永合作發行的新歌《Switch to me》，又再度讓他成為話題人物。現年38歲的他，更不時在IG發布帥氣照片，今（20）日Rain又貼出一張16歲時讀書的照片，網友看到都大讚他依然童顏。

 

Rain在自己IG公開了學生照片之後，還寫下：「找到學生證了」，那是他1998年就讀於安養藝術高中的學生證，只見照片中的他，正是學生時代稚氣、純真又青澀的模樣，但其實跟20多年後現在的樣子，並無太大差別。

網友更是大讚：「好可愛」、「心動了」、「樣子好像沒有太大變化」、「依然很帥氣」、「果然是童顏的代表」等，短短2小時就累積7萬個讚。

*** This part was really funny. They were doing some inference on the singer. RAIN followed Lee Sang-min and said he also had no comment and got hit by Kim Jong-kook.
