I remember in the comments long ago, the chat was he did snuck a look at her... his eyes were subtly moving from right at 0: 14 to a shifting of his eyes to the left at 0:15.. Did you not see his eyes lifting a teeny bit he started to lift his face forward too. Anyway , the chat at that time was an excited chorus of voices at how he couldn't resist the Nation's most beautiful woman and was aware of her moving about , one minute sitting next to him then out. Oh, apart from that .... what actually happened? She took the wrong seat or she vacated her seat to sit with MGY ?

I saw Rain's eyes turned to the left for that short few seconds, but maybe it's just me who don't see it as stealing a quick look at KTH. Assuming he did, could he was probably thinking the (then) 'It Girl' was sitting right beside him, omoooo.....and he can't just turn to her to say 'hello' for she maybe be too (in his misinterpreted impression) uppity to even talk to him? Or, he probably has his personal reason for not approaching her, a reason that I rather not delve into because I prefer to be in denial or maybe I am thinking too much on this point...), or maybe he was too busy thinking of his strings of projects for a world domination and he just can't afford the time and day to get personal with girls...LOL, mind so occupied that the Heads of Career, Wealth and Fanclub Departments of the Universe outvoted the Head of Romance Department, and therefore any specks of attraction just never existed between the two that night!

From what I read of other KTH's fans' views, KTH was lonely seated next to Rain as Rain did not talk to her or she probably feeling out of place seated next to someone that she does not know. She then keep going to the seat next to MGY who she knows. KTH was in the same agency as MGY that time. Do you see KTH's expression when she took the seat next to MGY, like "Oh, I'm so glad to come back here", hahaha......My guess is KTH was given a seat next to Rain as she was to teceive the popularity award as well as to go up the stage to announce the Best Clothes award with Andre Kim. Here is the picture, of her and AK:

Ahhh .... more romantic pouring. Let's go to the future ....... soar up to the heavens and see what the stars reveal about their wedding ...

I wish I have a 'Crystal Ball' and the expertise to predict the couple's wedding! But, alas, I am a mere ordinary mortal and born as KimBi couple's shipper only! I could only sigh, whenever I come across pictures of weddings, wedding cakes, wedding banquet, etc., and try to think how it will be like for the couple. Haha... You got anything to offer on this?

Hi Nancyzak, ye, I mentioned that - to those celebrities who are active duty soldiers will be “reserve duty” after discharge. They call you "veteran" - (“Veteran” is the term Koreans use for Korean males who have finished their mandatory military service.) There is such a thing they call “training for military reservists” (this is for all Korean male become military reserve personnel for 5-7 years after their discharge from their mandatory military service) I guess this takes (3) days that’s why, I heard many complained that the training was boring and that the number of days should be reduced. They have to do a 3 -day reservist training per year from the 1st - 4th year of "reservist duty" then down to 1 day (8hrs) per year from the 5th - 8th year. IDK if things have changed now - Korean military reserve personnel have to undergo training every year whether or not there is tension in the Korean Peninsula. After serving in active duty, Korean men are considered to be serving in an inactive duty. For eight years after the end of service, Korean men are supposed to report for a mandatory training up to 100 hours a year. That was RAIN did last time after a year he was discharged & I'm sure still doing that every year & it's just not put into writing that's why, we don't hear or read about it. In case of a war, Korean men in the 8-year period are drafted to fight. Also in case of a war, all Korean men between ages 18 and 45 are drafted for labor mobilization. Ye, they don't need to cut their hair anymore during this time or even dyed hair is allowed. I remember Jo Hyun Jae during his training his hair color is like red wine/burgundy… slightly stained red … What's required is : you SHOULD be in uniform again. And the rule applies again - "no picture-taking allowed when in uniform”. But, you can give an autograph to anyone who asked. All the same, you must meet the minimum screening requirements before training - All soldiers require a current Periodic Health Assessment (PHA) every 12 months and no later than 15 months. So, prior to attending the training, you must meet a weight standard. If you don’t meet the weight & body fat standards in accordance with Army Regulation you will be flagged and documented on your OER (Officer Evaluation Record). If you are flagged you will not be allowed to perform any other training until the flag is lifted. To remove the flag, you must have a complete body fat taping and forward the results to them or re-enter the weight control program within 12 months & separation action from the Army Reserve will be initiated.

Hi @willenette,

Thank you so much for the comprehensive explanation of military duties after the mandatory MS. Sorry, maybe I am not clear, but you mentioned that for 8 years after MS, the Korean men have to serve up to 100 hours a year. Isn't that a lot more hours than the aggregate of 24 hours a year for the each of the first 4 years (being 3 days x 8 hours of active duty a year) and 8 hours only for each year for the remaining 5th to 8th year?

I am surprised that JHJ colored his hair red. He is looks to me the unassuming type who won't do anything as 'shocking' as colluding the hair red. Well, maybe it's me who don't know better.

Hi Nancyzak, thanks for sharing this info about KTH. Also, thanks for sharing the picture. I love her get-up + the bag, of course. It seems that 100 hours a year is too much but it's the military's rule.

Hi @willenette,

You are welcome, dear. I like her fashion too for the visit to the eye centre. I think her top with cut out at the tips of the shoulders is a current fashion trend now. By now we generally know her fashion and style for her off days. I have more pictures to back up my claim, hahaha......see them below...... Can see that she really likes strappy flat sandals. I noticed that she always go for flat shoes when not on official functions/events, or even during breaks or while shooting for CFs where only her upper body is focussed on. To me, that is a sensible thing to do. I guess you know about the cons of wearing high heels that stresses not only the backbones but bad for the heels? That is why going on flats is most recommended.

The second picture in the spoiler is not so clear, but we can roughly make out her fashion and style that is almost like the first one.

Just to show you two examples of KTH wearing slippers while on job for making of CFs.

Hi Nancyzak, high heel is good for pencil skirts. It’s originally created as an accessory to wear with pencil skirts. Although they’re definitely stylish, high heels can cause major problems for both your feet. Wearing high heel can cause joint pain. It can also cause callouses & ye, lower back pain. I put a 3-hour limit on wearing my heels, so I use them only when I know an event or occasion won’t last longer than that. Otherwise, I have to add extra padding on the ball of my foot. Thanks for sharing the pictures of KTH. So casual of her still I love her get-up.

Hi @willenette,

Last time I wear about two and a half inches of heels but since my yoga freak friend scared me about how damaging it can be for the tendon, I now wear flats. Hahaha......Now, I'll allow myself about an inch heels for formal occasion. Of course that doesn't mean that all ladies have to give up heels. We know too well how heels make the wearer gaining the extra confidence with the extra height and feels and be seen sexy with the 'catwalk'. So, besides limiting the hours on high heels or add paddings to reduce the stress as some of the options to minimize damage or problem to tendons and ligaments, one could do some foot exercises at home by, for example, climbing up and down the staircase. That's what my yoga friend advised me. Best is to consult the podiatrist as each person's problem may be different from the other.

We talked about KTH's casual fashion. I note Rain's is in his T-shirt/cotton shirt and shorts, as per following on his most casual day out. It seems he loves his jean shorts and his T-shirt in grey as I have seen him in grey colored T-shirts many times todate.

Looking at the last picture about, I now noticed how matching the color of their dressing is, i.e. light blue for Rain's shorts and the check lines of his shirt and KTH's dress.

The third third and last English news article that I have chosen for posting here. Each articles posted here has a little difference from the other. So, read all, even if their contents are mainly the same.

Korean pop star Rain to return to Vietnam | DTiNews - Dan Tri International, the news gateway of Vietnam

Korean pop idol and actor Rain will return to Vietnam to perform in a national pageant at Phú Thọ Gymnasium in HCM City’s District 11.

Household name: Korean pop idol and actor Rain will return to Vietnam to perform in the Miss Vietnam 2016 pageant at Phú Thọ Gymnasium in HCM City’s District 11 on August 28. Photo raincompany.co.kt

Rain, who is also known as Bi and whose real name is Jung Ji Hoon, will be on stage only 15 minutes during the final round of the Miss Vietnam 2016 pageant on August 28.

The 34-year-old, who is a household name in his native country and popular in Asia, will sing three songs while performing with 30 finalists. He will be accompanied by his own group of dancers.

The Korean and Vietnamese organisers, including specialists in sound and light effects, have worked hard preparing for his performance. More than 30 bodyguards will protect the singer while he is in the city.

Born in 1982, Rain was initially a dancer. He is now a solo singer with a deep, soft voice and amazing dancing skills. He is also an accomplished actor.

In 2005 he was the only non-Japanese Asian singer to be invited to the MTV Japan Awards as a performing artist. The other guests were singers Ashanti and Mariah Carey.

One year later, he held his first solo concert in the US, entitled Rainy Day in New York, at New York’s Madison Square Garden. The event sold out and he was later named one of the world’s 100 most influential people by Time Magazine.

His hits are “I Do”, “Bad Guys”, “How to Avoid The Sun” and “It’s Raining”, all of them wildly popular in Vietnam.

Rain has been called the Asian Michael Jackson.

In 2006, Rain performed in Hanoi and HCM City as part of his Asian Tour, dazzling more than 30,000 people in the audience.

Organised by the Tiền Phong newspaper, the final round of Miss Vienam 2016 pageant will feature 30 contestants competing in the categories of traditional costume, evening dress and swimwear.

The jury will choose five candidates to take part in a question-and-answer session.

The winner will receive a VNĐ500 million award (US$22,700), while first and second runner-ups will take home VNĐ300 million ($13,600) and VNĐ250 million ($11,300), respectively.

It also features music stars Thu Minh, Hà Anh Tuấn, Noo Phước Thịnh, Đông Nhi, and Vietnamese-American Tóc Tiên.

Lucia_love, that's right - they have been dating since 2012. But, it was officially announced that Rain was in a relationship with actress Kim Tae Hee only January 2, 2013. They're about to go (4) years this month.

BTW Rain arrived to Shanghai today

Hi @Lucia_love,

Thank you very much for the update on Rain returning to Shanghai. Yup, continuing with filming of ANTE, after a few days’ rest in Seoul. I understand that the Korean Thanksgiving is in two weeks’ time. If he can’t make it back to celebrate the big event, hopefully, he had a good rest and great time in catching up with loved ones (including, of course, KTH) in the last few days.

Haha, it's evidently clear that Rain seems to have plenty of fun time with his friends that he uploads pictures in his IG or the friends will upload in their IGs. I guess it is his nature (as he was and has been always on the go with his friends. At least, that is what I know of, since his discharge from MS, because we were always looking out for pictures of him and KTH and all we got were pictures of him and his dancers/friends in SK, in NYC, in LA, in China, in Japan, etc, LOL! ) or is it something that he does a lot lately?

Yes, KImBi couple has been in relationship for about 4 years now. If we were to take the official confirmation on when they started which was in the month of November 2012, there’s two months to go before the full 4 years. How time flies, when I recall this thread started in the 3rd week of September 2013 and this thread is close to 3 years already!!!

Just before you posted, it crossed my mind on how I should respond if the question of whether there will be a wedding announcement from KimBi couple is posted. In my case, after being active here for so long (for 3 long years!), I have come to the point of taking each day as it is and be cool and patient...... and wait......and continue to contribute as much as I can here...... and that is the best policy for me, it seems, for the time being. I know, that is not thrilling/exciting at all, but that is how I see it because KimBi couple keeps a very tight rein over their relationship. Strictly P&C; no negotiation, not even a whisper, and no pictures, LOL!

So, my dear, bring on any news! I know you are very kind in sharing the news of Rain that is hot from the oven. I truly appreciate it!

I shall now get on with my updates here......
