here's an article that Bi fans (or others) shouldn't miss:
Oct 2005 Jessica (HK) Magazine
Page 3
At mid Sept, the TIME mag Asia mentioned the hot and popular Korean singer-Rain in the Music forum titled "A Korean Force of Nature".
Rain is spreading over Asia with the name "Asia Michael Jackson", caused a heavy storm in Hong Kong, and now he is preparing to step in the US market with the target of the world market.
That is anyother feeling seeing him in real person.
Page 4
"Kissing means you can do everything for your lover. I think kissing means to give my spirit as well as all things inside to my lover."
Korean trend Red Rain
Rain, who is just like a tornado in HK, give us "Jessica" a chance to interview him in his tight and busy schedule and to take this unique photos in HK media.
With slight curvy hair, single-edged eyelids and shy smile, Rain is as attractive as in the photos and VODs. What shocks me is his 184cm tall body.
Rain, whose original name is Jeong Ji-hun, is 23 year-old only, but he has entered the stage for 7 years. With a poor childhood, Ji-hun entered the music circle at the age 16. His first album "Bad Guy" finally released at 2002 after the few-year training. This album was so popular once after debuted and won nearly all the "New singer" music awards.
Next year, his second album "How to avoid from the sun" released with the theme song reorginised from "Shape of my heart" of Sting. This song analogy the ex-gf as the sun which can't be escaped.
Rain said he doesn't experience this kind of love affair, however, his deduction touches everyone. That's why this song stayed in the No.1 continously for 3 months in almost every music camp. This made Rain's fairy tale a brilliant history.
In the same year, Rain got almost every "Most Popular singer" from different music awards and 5 important "New singer" awards. Afterwards, he became the King in the Korea music circle.
Who don't love?
The God of Fortune always helps the hard-working people. Rain carry his fortune on to the TV stage.
In 2004, he met a drama which helped him to step out Korea, that is "Full House". Before this drama, he only acted in the TV drama "Sangdoo, let's go school". In this drama, he acts as a gigolo and a single-dad, that's distant from his real life.
But in "Full House", he acts back himself as a famous star Lee Young-jae, his acting is agreed by everyone. "Full House" makes "Lee Young-jae" not only popular in Korea, but also China, HK, Taiwan and the Asia. The rumor said some housewives prepared 100 dishes of "sam-kae tong" for the staff of "Full House"; and during the time "Full House" on air, many people left messages saying that they don't want to do anything else other than watching Lee Young-jae's smiling face!
Rain became much more famous and with Song hae-kyu, they became the "Perfect TV couple".
Although he is under million people's support, he has his lovely side.
Besides dancing and eyesight, what makes Rain attractive is the way he talks. Hexpressed his mind while clarifying the rumour with Song Hae-Gyo, "I don't need my gf having perfect body shape. I perfer chubby and cute girl."
And his Kissing theory "Kissing means you can do everything for your lover. I think kissing means to give my spirit as well as all things inside to my lover."
How can girls not falling in love with this kind of gentle and tough boy?
Page 5
Drank dancing steps
Rain turned from a normal secondary student to the leader of the "Han-nyu". What and how much he paid is without any doubt.
Park Ji-young is being regarded as the key of turning this normal student to a great star. He goes back to his memory 5 years ago, and said "Rain's performance attracted me, he was doing every kind of performance without showing any tired faces. This made me felt that he is not a usual person!" On the other hand, Rain indicates that Park Ji-young is a teacher he respects a lot, "without him, I am sure there will not be "Rain". It's hard to compare our dancing as they are in different styles. We both do our best in our dancing!"
Actually, although Rain learns from Park Ji-young, he stills owns his unique dancing. Rain's dancing is rhythmic and full of energy, plus the absorption of outside elements(for example the drank dancing steps). Rain said " I think I can express everything through dancing."
It's not a temporary success
At March and July 2005, Rain had went China for the promotion of his album "It's Raining" and attending the MTV award.
The order quantity of the album is 100 thousands pieces, which is the record of Korean albums released in China. In Sept 2005, Rain held 2 concerts in Budokan which got 10 thousands fans' support. And for the concerts going to hold in HK, the tickets were all sold out in a minute.
Rain's success in these 3 years is not easy to get even others work 10 or 20 years more. It always make a person get lost under the situation of being supported by thousands and millions fans. However, to Rain, he is surely not falling into the trap. He will be a long-lasting King. That's because he is not only a star of the stage, he walked through poor and hard conditions.
Rain's childhood was as sad as the sorrow Korean drama. He lived with his parents and sister in a small metal house at the back of the market while he was young.
Due to daddy's failure in business, it was his Mom to bear the duty to earn money for the family. She sold "ttoh-bo-kki" in the market and her good son Rain always help in the shop. Rain and his sister were both introvert and silent because of the heavy duty from family.
"This charater insist till this moment. People have to spend a lot of time if he/she wants to get closer to me."Rain said.
Afterwards, his Mom died from diabetes, while his Daddy went to Brazil for work.
That's the wound which can never be cured deep inside Rain's heart but also the power for him to success.
"Every time I stand on the stage, I miss my Mom. For her, I still feel sorry till this moment. I've acheived what I promised her, that's to be a famous singer. If she knows, she will be happy with this!"
The postscript:
It was a rush for the cover shotting. Fortunately, Rain was relaxed in front of the camera.
(Kit: the following part of the postscript is the outline hightlight of the drama "ÀÌ Á×ÀÏ ³ðÀÇ »ç¶û". So I am not going to translate that~~^^)
I believe for the coming years, Rain will remains the vogue which covers the whole Asia with his unique and sexy dancing!

16/6: Budokan Fan-Meeting cum Single and RFR Promotion
Credit: Rainingforever@baidu// jinlees@soompi
Ch to Eng: Rayndrop

The fan-meeting on the 16th was a Rain Special Event put together in the last minute at Budokan. The main purpose, other than celebrating his birthday, is to serve as a post-report for "Road for Rain", and as a promotion activity for his latest Japanese single. That's why they kept playing his RFR DVD before the event started.

I was seated on the 2nd floor today, so my seat was not as good as that of yesterday. But I could see the reactions of fans in the entire first floor and those who are near me on the second floor. Tonight, I experienced Rain, as well as Clouds, making me more emotional at heart.

When it was about to start, everybody began to get excited. Some made cat calls, some screamed out loud...LOL

The start is always sudden. Like yesterday, Boom! Smoke! Curtain fall, and there stood Rain, ready with his pose at the back of the stage. Music for "How to avoid the sun" began, and the fans began to scream...

The screen flashed pictures for "How to avoid the sun", Jihoon took his sunglasses off now and then, and that was always followed by a wave of screams...LOL...Jihoon is warming up the atmosphere.

Then Jihoon went backstage, and the camera kept following him to the backstage room. When Jihoon realised that, he turned around, waved, smiled, and put the sunglasses on the lead dancer's nose. He even deliberately placed the sunglasses crooked for comical effects. Jihoon us so cute...like a naughty kid. The dancers gathered beside Jihoon and did what they usually do- stike a pose and freeze. Everybody froze in front of the camera for a few seconds...how cute. Then Jihoon asked if they were still filming. Somebody told him yes, so Jihoon quickly waved and smiled again. All the clouds laughed, shouting "Kawaii". Then the director appeared and closed the door to the backstage room.

Phase 1 ended...

The host came out and told us we'll be celebrating Jihoon's birthday, and we'll be singing the Birthday song. When he shouts One, Two, we'll make the heart sign and shout loudly, "Jihoon-ni, Saranghaeyo!" We practised that a few times...this is the same with yesterday's meeting.

And then the fans shouted loudly "Rain", our Jihoon walked out happily. At this moment, the music came up and all the fans started singing the happy birthday song, followed by "Jihoon-ni, Saranghaeyo!" Jihoon smiled, looked very satisfied...at this moment, I felt a surge of emotions in my heart. To be able to sing Jihoon a Happy Birthday song in person, testify him getting one year older, getting more matured; another year of hard work, another year of reaping the results of his hard work, and working hard for the following year. I'm so grateful, quietly saying, Jihoon, you must be healthy, happy, smooth-sailing, safe...

Then Jihoon blew the candles, all 25 of them. Jihoon knew there were many of them, so he took a deep breath before blowing out his candles, but he still needed to blow twice. Asked him what his wish was, he said, he hoped the following Asia Concert Tour would be successful.

Then the presents prepared by the fans appeared. It was beautifully prepared...Jihoon opened a few. The first was a underwear..Jihoon was really cute. It was a white underwear with orange stripes. Very cute, and looked really good quality. The people beside me were all saying that it suited Jihoon very well...Then Jihoon opened another big box. There was a motorbike helmet in it. Should be from the HK clouds, because they were screaming loudly...Following that was the Japanese clogs, Kimono and sunglasses. Jihoon looked very satisfied. July is the fireworks festival in Japan. Everybody will be wearing their Kimono to go watch the fireworks, so the host asked if everybody wanted to wear their Kimono and go watch fireworks with Jihoon. Everybody shouted yes, and by the time Jihoon understood what everybody was talking about through his translator, he said in a serious manner, "Really!" So cute...

And then the host commented that there a lot more presents than these, and the camera shifted to backstage where there were a lot more gifts..Jihoon is so fortunate..

Followed by that is Jihoon's presents to all. That's the attires, shoes, accessories he used in the RFR DVDs. There were all quality stuff, and showed Jihoon's good taste. When Jihoon introduced these items, every single piece carried Jihoon's memories, all of which were beautiful ones. Yet he was willing to give them away to fans, very meaningful indeed...There were about 8000 people present, and only 10 items to be given away. Jihoon used little darts and threw them at a seating map to choose the lucky winners. People who got the gifts were all very touched. Those who didn't just felt it was too bad. Jihoon threw his darts seriously, and the hit rate was pretty good. Of course his posture was nothing to complain about. One word to describe him, "Suave"! There was once his dart hit the stage, and he happily pointed at himself, saying the present is for him, ignoring the host who was wilding exclaiming that the present was for him. laugh.gif Jihoon immediately threw a dart again. This segment too a long time. Finally, everything was given away. Of course...I didn't get anything..

There was a Q&A session today too...In accordance to the four letters of the word RAIN:

1.Raining day
2.Album
3.Influence- Thoughts on being chosen for TIME 100 List
4.News- Please tell us one of your secret

About Rainy Day, many questions were asked about his last concert tour. I only recall one question:
Q: Did any accident happen during the concert tour?
JH: Because the time given for me to change each time is very short, so I'm always in a rush. There was once I didn't zip up my pants and was getting ready to go on stage. Fortunately, one dancer told me, so I was saved from embarassment...[Rayndrop: Hehehehehe....*ahem*]

Q: Was there any error during the concert tour?
JH: Basically there weren't any. But there were some times when I forgot my lyrics because I was nervous. My memory is very good normally, but once I get onstage, I get more excited, so there are times when I forget my lyrics. But that doesn't happen now...[Rayndrop: kureyo, Jihoon-ssi? Hmm?]
And Jihoon kept emphasizing, it is because of everybody that he is able to stand here today, like the concert he held at Budokan and the success of the last Rainy Day concert tour. He is very grateful to all...

3.Influence- Thoughts on being chosen for TIME 100 List
Jihoon was very excited when he heard the question. He said he was surprised to be able to get this honour, and this is all because of everybody. His trip to TIME party also allowed him to see his idol and he was really happy to be able to stand with all those great people. He also felt that this gave him more mileage and broaden his path, won him more opportunities. Actually, he had been considering the areas which he had been unsatisfied with in his last concert tour, and he also came up with many ideas. He is very happy to be able to realise all these ideas this time...

4.News- Please tell us one of your secret
Jihoon said, "I don't have any secrets. Really no secrets! If I have to talk about a secret about my body, I'm very not very satisfied with my waist. It is a bit too long." Then he started to laugh...ah...Jihoon analyses himself so much...and so harsh on himself...too adorable!

He host refused to give up, asked if he has a girlfriend. Jihoon said there is none, and everybody went "Ahhh???" implying that they did not believe him. Jihoon began to laugh...

After the Q&A, we watched Jihoon's RFR DVD. I didn't buy it, so I really enjoyed that portion. Rain is fantastic!

Following that, Jihoon came out and sang "I Do". My favourite! Another enjoyment!

After that, Jihoon ran backstage, and everybody started shouting, "Why run off after one song!" Then the screen showed something Jihoon has recorded beforehand. He introduced the car he usually travelled in, which has a TV inside; the drink Jihoon usually drink after working out; the facial wash and cosmetic items he usually use; the warmer he used when he is cold; and the best part, his digital camera. It was a gift from fans, and there were many pictures Jihoon took recently, some from NY Time 100, the scene when he was wearing a yellow t-shirt with the numbers 28 on it. Jihoon loves taking photographs, and he takes his own photos very often, particularly his beautiful lips...

Not sure when he recording the introduction of these clips, but he was obviously sounding very nasal. A flu, perhaps? But he did look very healthy and very adorable!

Following that, Jihoon came out and sang "Handshake"
I love that song!
Perhaps Jihoon felt that there weren't much excitment because there were too many parts spent on watching the DVD and throwing darts to select the prize-winners, so he really tried to heat up the atmosphere when singing "Handshake". He was very cute, walking to the end of the T-shape extension, and he even went down the stage, and it went crazy for a while. Then he sat on the edge of the stage, happily performing and making the entire stadium's atmosphere very high. I know this is Jihoon's way of consoling the fans...out understanding Jihoon...

After that, he sang "Sad Tango" and "Free Way", followed by an ending with "Instead of Saying Goodbye". Like yesterday, he gave away many things, and those dancers wiped Jihoon's sweat with towels before throwing them to the Clouds. Very cute...

Some words he said in between, and I cannot remember when, but they touched me

1. Jihoon said he cannot go to Japan often, because he has a lot of work in Korea, and he often needs to go to China, Taiwan, Thailand etc...

2. Jihoon told the host that he needs to take a 15 hour flight every time he goes to the US, but the time is not a difficulty for him, because he needs to learn English, listen to CD, read and do many other things. So it is not boring for him, but he has less time to sleep. Really, he feels very happy working. It's just that he has less time to sleep, and this is the only area which he feels more hardship. Heartache!! Jihoon said sometimes he feels he has not choice...I feel helpless about the situation for him too... (:sweat:)

3. Jihoon said finally that, "Now, I am somebody who can't say I'm in pain even if I am in pain. Even when it hurts a lot, I still must endure. Because the work is hard, and pain is frequent. But because I have all of you, my family, even when there's pain, I won't feel it; even when I'm feeling weak, I will become strong. So please continue to support me and love me till the end!"

Let him become even more perfect,, let him light up this world! The work of fans is hard...Jihoon needs all of us!

Oh yes, when introducing the RFR, about the picture which shows Jihoon smoking, Jihoon clarified that he usually doesn't smoke, and that was just for show. So everybody, please believe that Jihoon doesn't smoke!
eeh, i should correct the last statement. it's not that he usually don't smoke, it's that he doesn't smoke at all! ^^; i've been seeing some caps and scans from Road for Rain (capped/scanned by Bambiina@soompi) and it's really something that a fan should collect. i'm not a collector of photobooks, but those pics are too hot to resist :drool:

[panda_shine]

Yay, part 7!

Hi everyone! :wave:

Jenna: Hehe.. I had the same effect too after watching the Freeway MV. :D I prefer the white outfit over the black one too. :angel:

shez: oo okies.. I think you are talking about the female lead^^

Jessica: oo.. do you know which other Pepsi members are in the upcoming Pepsi CF? I'll be looking forward to it too :happy:

Grace: I managed to watch Korea vs France too.. but I missed the part when they scored because I had to go out.. :oops: My brother had to call his Korean friend to ask for the scores lol. I am glad that you finally tried Korean food! It's tasty right? Hope you can try other types too hehe. I think I'll be going this weekend ^^ oo.. about your friend's trip.. perhaps you can save up for it??

Hi Ira! :wave:

Thanks Jessica for the long article! I read most of it.. hehe.. the part when the fan described the underwear part made me laugh.. :D She even mentioned that it was good quality :D Bi's expression must have been adorable when he saw it.. :shifty: and towards the last part (#3) when he talked about pain.. it was so heartache-y to read it. :oops:

[jbalibean]

Jess ~ no, but I just went sexybi and read the audio teaser translation ~ ommo, I had no idea the lyrics were so sexual :blush: haha, actually I had trouble understanding his English the first time I heard it, I couldn't tell if he way saying 'come lie/fly/light with me' and then I remembered how my oppa has trouble with his 'r' and 'l' sounds so I knew he had to have been saying 'ride' :oops: I'm downloading the hardsubbed version of his mv now so I can know all the lyrics :brows:

Go camping with his fans....at a hot spring was he serious when he said this?!?! :sweat: could u imagine him walking around in a bathing suit :drool:

thanks for posting the fan accounts ~ it's funny how much they keep saying he likes cake :D

Teardrop ~ I think that was the longest post I've ever seen :bow: It's funny that u mention LJK's voice b/c I can't stop listening to his music!!! :sweat: Nice to see you again^^ I just realized his voice sounds like the actor who plays a singer in MISA ( I forget his name, I watched that drama soo long :oops:) that Eun Chae likes ~ esp. in 'I Don't Understand'

Jess ~ no I didn't, I actually liked it! ( I guess I'm the only one :shy: ) haha, they are already downloaded ~ I went on a spree at sexybi today during my break from work :happy: You actually watch the World Cup? :ohmy: You are one of the few Americans I know that actually watch that. People have been getting on me because of my disinterest, but I think I was supportive when I watched Se7en's performance at the World Cup :sneaky:

Grace ~ ROFL! I thought you said you weren't going to bring him up?! 85% you say?! :brows:

Yeah :shy: it was more of a need to spazz than anything else :sweat: I used to dish with Jess, but I rarely see her on these daysT__T so I must spazz by myself :depresse:

You tried kimchi!?! :excited: Isn't it delicious??!! :bounce: I've been to kimchi parties at school before :yummy:

I'm a little confused, can someone clarify what Road for Rain is? I remember hearing something many months ago about this huge photo album that was supposed to come out and he went to places like Cuba and Las Vegas to shoot for it, is that it? If so, then what's the Road for Rain dvds? Is this like some kind of grand Bi set?:?

Edit: Karen somehow I missed your post ._.
Yay~I'm glad to know I wasn't the only person here who was euphoric upon viewing :hugz: I've come to think of this as 'the Bi effect'

oh is that Lee Hyolee in your avator?

[gracecherry]

jess unnie > yea i was suppose to wake up at 3 for the korea vs france match, but i dont if i was hallucinating or wat, i just didnt hear my alarm but when i woke up at 4, the alarm was off,so i must hav off it, watever it is, the goal by ji sung was a last minute one,and i was sooo relieved! ahhh, i m sooo touched by wat bi said towards the end of the fanmeeting!!! just makes me pity him more.

[jessica]

karen: if i remember correctly, Louis, Edison and Jolin will be part of that CF. i'm waiting for a day that both Jay and him will be in the same Pepsi CF! i always enjoy reading news or fan's report on him. i've learned so much since then <3

jenna bean: lol, some of us had the problem with understanding his english in Free Way also. i thought he said "come and lie/light with me" which didn't really make any sense :oops: ooh, someone hardsubbed that too?! i'll have to leech from sexybi soon, when my connection is not so slow ><
i'm sure he was just flirting with us when he said he wanted to go camping with fans at a hot spring. could you imagine the chaos he'll cause if we see him in his bathing suit...not to mention that some fans might not be able to control herself and do something she'll regret later on :whistle:
omo! was se7en's performance during the World Cup broadcasted on American TV?!! =O i don't think he performed in Germany though. i actually enjoy watching soccer, but only for the few teams i like :shy:
you are correct about the Road for Rain set. it's a photobook (150 pages of droolicious hotness) and a DVD with behind-the-scenes of the photoshoots, dancing and more. i don't know what they were for, but he looked so sexy and bad @ss :drool: i'm waiting for the korean (or hopefully an international) release with eng subs for the DVD. it's a must buy item! :excited:

grace: that's the price to fame >< if he's taking measures to deal with the stress and hectic schedule, then he won't be burnt out too quickly :sweat:
i'm a little worried about his new image for his 4th album. once you read the news, you'll know how i feel ^^;

Wendy: let us know what you think about Sad Tango and Slowly ^^ you should not miss the PV for Sad Tango either! i think most of the links here are expired. you should be able to find it on youtube. oh, so that's what been going on with youtube. i just discovered so many dramas and movies that i haven't watched yet =(
you don't have to quote the news. i do it because my posts are usually very long and i just want to differentiate it between a reply and news. what you're doing is fine :happy:
we're very passionate about Bi so once we start replying, it tends to get very long ^^;

teardrop: aahhh! i was able to play most of the the Rainy Day making of DVD you sent me today in another DVD player! :excited: i finally saw his playful side while rehearsing :D and i saw him trip, as Grace had mentioned too...and,and that part where he was hanging on the..erm, poll? and making a tarzan-ish call! :laughing: he's such a cute dork <333
so you DLed all of FTTS's albums already? i still haven't gotten their 1st yet. i prefer 3rd jib and up. lol...i'm not sure if Brian has a gf or if Hwanhee was just saying that to annoy him XD so your favorite out of the 2 if Brian?
the theme week is for those who want to join and it's for his bday, so you just decorate your avatar/banner with his pics and msgs to wish him a happy bday ^^
i'm not a crazy soccer (football) fan, but i do enjoy watching it. i find it exciting and fun. i can't stand american football :crazy: i'm cheering for US (of course), Korea and Japan :-)

here's an older piece of news from last month that talked about his 4th album and his plans to enter the US market.

Walking Towards the World Stage
27-May-06, YONHAP
Journalist Lee Eun Jeng reports (mimi@yna.co.kr)

"Me? I've never thought of becoming better than anyone"
"Must remember 6 years ago"

Singer Rain, 24 and chosen as part of TIME 100, has the above messages written on the screen of his handphone. That night when he was walking down the red carpet during the NY TIME 100 Party, he suddenly recalled the times when he was a trainee 6 years ago.

27th, in the Seoul office of JYPE. Bi, who is walking in large strides towards the world stage, has a happy smile on his lips.

"My smile recently seems to be very hypocritical." When you are enjoying too much popularity, you tend to be proud and conceited. But this smile and straightforwardness, makes me feel at peace just as per usual.

You have to be very careful when performing on stage, don't you?
"Frequenting the Asian entertainment sector, after being chosen to be in the TIME 100 list, I feel there's really not much changes, except that I'm living in English-speaking countries. When I was in my teenage years, I didn't learn English well, and I'm regretting it now. So now I'm working hard on my English."

"The expectations of people around me have increased. For a better stage and better songs, I keep pushing myself. Now, everyday is the extension of chances non-stop!"

To build your self on honesty and desire, isn't that very tiring? "It is very tiring, I guess!" A sentence that holds so much meaning. Not in a depressed way, but because he has found a way to enjoy his job.

Rain "I've never thought of becoming better or more outstanding that anybody; neither have I thought of outshining anyone. This attitude is very odd. However, when I am onstage and in front of the camera, I naturally feel that I am the best. At that moment, I am not me." *Smile*

"Please do not believe in untruthful rumours"
In the past few days, the stock value of Rain has been going up. His contract fee has gone up to 10-15 billion won. Rain's contract terms with JYPE will be up next year May. From the beginning of this years, rumours of him hopping to another company has been non-stop. The outside parties all have their versions of a story to tell, but the person in question does not say a word.

"Some say that I contacted many companies secretly. That is not true. It troubles me that there are so many people spreading rumours. I still have a year's contract with JYPE, so there are no conclusive answers now. As for Dad contacting many other agencies, that is also an untruthful news. Father and I do not interfere in each other's work."

Your contract fee is 10-15 billion won. What are your thoughts about these figures? "10 Billion won you said? I feel really happy of course, but they are just like bubbles. Because the Asian market influences my entry into the US market, everybody has got high expectations on me. With regards to this meaning, I feel burdened. Now, I only want to think about my work."

His schedule is full all the way until next year. Rain is now filming "I'm a cyborg, is that ok?" dorected by Pak Chan Wook. His fourth album is scheduled for release on 15 Oct, and his 5-months Asia Concert Tour to 11 different countries will kick off in December. His entry into US has been postponed to next year.

"I feel that the market structure in Asia is key to entering the US market systematically. If I can amass sufficient popularity in Asia, then it will be easier for me when I enter the US market. Hence, my Asia COncert Tour is the foundation to my entry into the US market. I will definitely go into the US market by mid next- year.

Rain and Director Pak relieves stress with Soju

Recently, Rain has become a Pusan man because he is filming his first movie, "I'm a Cyborg, Is that ok?" directed by Pak Chan Wook. ALmost 55% of his time is spent in that place. The day of interview Rain just finished his Fan-meeting at GwangUn University, and will be heading back to Pusan after the interview.

"The movie is based mostly in an asylum. The male actor meets a girl who is kinder than anyone he knows, and he falls in love," he said laughing. This could be a very romantic love comedy.

Talking about Director Pak who he is working with for the first time, Rain said, "He is a very charismatic leader. He has the looks and the capabilities. He is somebody who has a deep understanding of the knowledge of movies. When I feel very stressed up, I'll have a cup of soju with director to release stress. Im Soo Jung, who is like an elder sister, is very amiable as well. She is a senior who can make you feel very comfortable."

When he has time, he prepares for his 4th album. Other JYP, there are also other composers invited to participate in this project.

"The 4th album is a piece of work which I have done my utmost best to complete. In this 4th album, I made many great changes both in terms of my style of music as well as the pictures in it. I, who have been showing the beauty of musculinity until now, will be presenting the neutral-gender look. It's a secret


neutral-gender?! :crazy:

[jbalibean]

was se7en's performance during the World Cup broadcasted on American TV?!! No *sigh* I wish though. What I meant is that that performance was the only part of the world cup I've ever seen. He performed at a game in Korea.
150 pages of droolicious hotness) and a DVD ohmy, if it's as good as you make it sound, I might have to set aside a little for this worthwhile investment:tongue:

OH no~ I can't believe he's going towards the latest LJK trend!!!:crazy:

teardrop~ yeah, I have been listening to his music everytime I've logged onto the computer the past few weeks! his voice is so soothing, I could just bathe in it:happy: No it's not SJS, I know who he is :drool: :drool: It's the guy that Eun Chae originally liked and worked for before meeting SJS

[rachelle03]

Anyong, Bi-ers. :wave:
Mianhe, I was busy with weddings and weddings. :wacko:

I, who have been showing the beauty of musculinity until now, will be presenting the neutral-gender look. It's a secret.
*frowns*
Cuba photos at Road for Rain, I can accept that. Please dont come up with a thick make up face with eyeliner. :oops:

Jess: I realised I forget to tell you about MISA's ending. :sweat: Yup, I'm done with the drama. I find the ending pretty sweet that she lay beside him. Reminds me of Romeo & Juliet. Esp when EunChae went back to Aussie. That was indeed the saddest part. We know she cant live w/o him. >.<

I'm finally done with my banner set for his bi-day! :D Cant wait for tomorrow to come and I'll hang up my banner set.

[jessica]

jenna bean: i really like se7en's perf during the World Cup. someone commented that he resembled Bi, esp. the way he danced. i didn't notice it. when i find the HQ clip, i'll take a closer look ^^;

grace: his image for the 4th album is suppose to be a surprise for us :sweat: i just hope it'd be a pleasant one. i can't imagine him looking like LJK :sweat: :oops: i'm worried about the style for his 4th album also. how can he sing r&b and hip hop with that image? @.@
i don't think there was any romanized lyrics for Junki's songs. i'll look around to see if anyone posted it ^^ did you DL the soft subs for Don't Know Love yet? it's on his thread, and it syncs with the fanmeeting perf clip. i've seen a poster of that kdrama you mentioned and it looked quite old. i haven't watched that yet. i'm re-watching 18 vs 29 with subs now :-)
oh, did you watch his Rainy Day in Japan rehearsal clip? he was playful during that time too. that part where he was washing his hand with the special "rain" effect for Nan was so funny :laughing:
that actor's name is...eek, i forgot his name already >< let me check...............ah, Choi Sung Joon ^^ i can't remember if he was one of Shin's friends :oops:

take a look at this
http://leon_ng.blogs.friendster.com/shattered_glass/
tsk tsk. this guy sound like he has a lot of hate. i hope Ji Hunnie gets even more famous so he can get on his nerves some more :whistle:

teardrop: yes, i had problems playing that DVD :sweat: i'm still having problems with the end of the rehearsal clip, but i saw most of it ^^ i did see his reaction after he tripped. he was laughing at his little blunder :D that DVD player was one of the extras we have. the one i've been using haven't been working lately, so i hooked up the new one. i think it's a Magnavox (sp?).
i was looking at my playlist and found out that i do have FTTS's Vol 2. so i'm just missing Vol 1. i think i'll just stick to what i have since i don't really like their older songs =X yes, i've heard the 3 songs in the repackaged album :happy: LOL..Brian is always dorky on game shows. his dancing is so hilarious. i know he exaggerates his moves to entertain the audience :D i found out what a great dancer Hwanhee is from these game shows. he can break dance like no other <3 i like Hwanhee a little more than Brian. i have a soft spot for shy guys with a deep/husky voice :love:
i have problems with streaming from KBS's site :oops: which song did you request? was it Persona? i liked that song when i first heard it ^^

rach; weddings and weddings? wow, seems like a lot of ppl are getting married recently ^^;
weren't you surprised with the ending to MISA? i never thought that EC would commit suicide :cry: till this day, i can't listen to Snowflower without feeling sad.

eek..no eyeliners for oori Bi please :sweat:

can't wait to see everybody's b-set! :excited: i have some finishing touches with mine ^^;

[teardrop]

rachelle: what's all this wedding about? are you a wedding planner?!?! kekeke ooo can't wait to see what ur banner is like, i'll prob redo mine tonight or mayb on Saturday hhmmm.... saturday looks more promising :blush: ah i think i'm gonna be late joining this theme week :shy: :bluch:

jess unnie:ah i'm just glad that you got to watch the dvd in the end! so glad that you can watch all the little bts, i was really shocked at how fast that boy can change clothes! and even though i knew that he had to go back stage to change and stuff but wen i watched that segment i kinda viewed his rd concert in a different light. i mean when i 1st watched it, it was for pure enjoyment :bleh: but then i saw the btc dvd and i saw how much hard work he puts in and it just changed my view on the concert as in i don't just view it as a show but as sooo much effort and hard work, if you get what i mean??? basically what i'm trying to say was that i appreciated it more lol. i have a soft spot for shy guys with a deep/husky voice ^^^ gee wonder why??? :whistle: :bleh: o you're having trouble with the kbs site??? o no!!! yea i requested persona i loved it when i 1st heard it as well i really love that song it's one of my fav! :-)

[panda_shine]

I got my banner set up! :-) The color combos seems a bit awkward but I forgot to save it in .psd file so.. I can't fix it.. :oops:

Jenna: Yupyup, it's Hyori in my (previous) avatar. The red she's wearing was for some promo photos for team Korea. I love japchae too but I am not too sure what the other two are.. just Korean BBQ meat?? I am so off topic LOL..

Grace: Yeah, the Korean cuisine here are expensive too as compared to Chinese cuisine.. The blog link.. haha.. I only read a bit but I think he's a bit TOO anti-Rain and I stopped reading lol. :crazy:

Wendy: No, unfortunately I haven't met Bi before.. Yes, I think being part of the Bi thread will definitely make you become closer to him. :wink2:

teardrop: I just listened to "Highway Star" and it's very ..party-ish hehe.. but it's not bad. Not sure if I told you before but I also really like "You're My Everything". Btw, I love FTTS's Condition of My Heart too!! Yeah! Sometimes, I want to say Aja aja fighting to my friends but they probably don't know what I mean and it'll be a hassle to explain.. :oops: Oh, some Korean food aren't that spicy.. or the ones that are spicy, I think you can ask them to make it not that spicy. Thanks for the KBS Radio link!!

i think it was rachelle or was it karen??? that said that the chorus was the only part where his pronunciation was spot on
Oh I don't think that was me hehe.. :sweat:

Jessica: oo.. I'll be looking forward to the CF too then. I wished Jolin wasn't in it though LOL.. :shifty:

i'm worried about the style for his 4th album also. how can he sing r&b and hip hop with that image? @.@
Yeah me too.. and I thought his image will to be more buff for his 4th album?? So buff AND neutral gender? *hmmm*:worry:

..eyeliner? Hopefully no.. *thinks back when Jay had eyeliner* .. plus, "rain" X eyeliner would not go.. :whistle:

[rachelle03]

Ooh! The theme week is here! :excited: I've placed up my banner set. I got the inspiration from JYPE's website introducing him, which says Singer/Actor/Model.

I want to share this piece of good news with you all. The gift from RainSG have been successfully fulfilled! I'm so happy with RainSG's gift to him! They just couried it out to him and there's news articles all over about it! So far there's news articles of it on HK papers, our own SG papers and Korea's YTN News. There's even a mention of it on JYPE site! Now RainSGs were hoping that he'll received the item successfully and perhaps a video clip from him or even him flying here rightaway! :rolleyes:

Here's a scan of the article in local papers provided by RainSG.

http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/8136/img10912no2tz.th.jpg (http://img153.imageshack.us/my.php?image=img10912no2tz.jpg)

i think it was rachelle or was it karen??? that said that the chorus was the only part where his pronunciation was spot on
Oh I don't think that was me hehe..
I guessed that's me then. You meant Pantech song isit?
I've been listening so many times that he seems so accurate with his pronounciation now. :D

teardrop: Oh I'm not a wedding planner, though it might seems fun. ^^ I'm just busy with weddings of others.

jess: Hmm surprise factor wise, not really, coz I already saw the spoiler in forum. >< But it's just that I didnt know the method she chose.

[jessica]

teardrop: i feel the same way about his concert. all that work and preparation put in and it only last for approx 2 hours. it felt shorter when you're there >< i couldn't believe how fast he changes either! during the fanmeeting in Budokan recently, he revealed that he almost forgot to zip one time. thank goodness his dancer caught it or he'll be so embarrassed, not to mention killing some fans in the front :laughing: i don't know why i have problems streaming from KBS's site. i used to be able to do it..hmm, maybe i need to upgrade my..erm, javascript? :wacko:
your banner is so cute! love the bday hat you added :D

rach: i was about to use that Road for Rain pic for the theme week! i decided to settle for less hot and choose one of his cuter pics =P but your banner is very creative! it showed all sides of him as a well-rounded entertainer, from cute to sexy and everything in between! i'm so mesmerized with your .gif :cloud9:
omo! that's great news for SG Bi'ers!! :excited: hope he'll take this opportunity to visit SG very soon ^^ is that YTN news clip available to DL yet? can't wait to read more news on it. thanks for the scan :hugz:
did you feel sad with the ending of MISA, even knowing what happened? :oops:

karen: it looks fine to me ^^ i noticed that we used the same font, hehe.
i almost forgot that Jay had eyeliner on before :oops: maybe it was too traumatizing so i buried it deep in my memory. now that you mentioned it, i had a horrifying image of what Bi would look like with eyeliner :crazy: :oops:

this is the translation of the news clip on his Budokan fanmeeting i uploaded to youtube a few days ago.

wow the 7th thread!
i'm just a bit confused.. i dont get why it's his 25th birthday.. shouldn't it be 24th since he was born in 1982..=S
sorry if i made a really stupid mistake or something. anyway - happy birthday to rain!:D

[teardrop]

Karen: I just listened to "Highway Star" and it's very ..party-ish hehe.. but it's not bad. Not sure if I told you before but I also really like "You're My Everything" ^^^aigOO!!!! i haven't heard of these songs, my sis said that it's oppa's new songs is it true?!? i checked the dl thread and i can't find it there aigOO haven't been to the dl thread for a while there's soooo many things that i've missed out on!!! ah no prob for the kbs link, i think i just wanted to share it to ppl who a) were interested in korean and b) understood/know who these ppl are! lol as all my family (except for my sis) and friends were like ok cool and didn't listen to the song :-x. ah i would love to try more korean foods, all i've had was shin raman lol but the thing is my tongue's really really sensitive to spicy food even if u add a drop of chilly to a litre of water my mouth will still be burning for 5 mins!! lol but i love sour stuff like lemons ooooo yum, my brother actually brought me 2 lemons for my 15th b'day lol i was sooo happy!! lol:D ah yea i love condition of my heart but i would have to say the number 1 song for me would have to be sea of love! i love that song! it's mid-tempo and upbeat great for walking around in the sun as to me it sounds like such a summery song but the lyrics are sad =( good thing i can't understand what they're singing lol i think it would just spoil it :tongue: so i'll just bounced along singing cheerfully, well miming as i don't think i should be singing korean on london streets lol.

rachelle: hehehe yea being wedding planer would be fun, you get to dress up everyday and mingle with lots of ppl but it'll prob be really stressful as well, ah i love your banner!!! i love how you put serious pics for the actor, performer and then the end pic of the b'day boy with his tongue out aigoo!!! cutela!!!! :D I've been listening so many times that he seems so accurate with his pronunciation now ^^ lol yea it was the pantech song, i guess listening to it a few times u just kinda get carried aways with his smooth vocals, but luckly for me i don't understand mano anyways so didn't have the problem to begin with! i'm sure i'm sure (when i'm singing along) my pronunciation is worse than his! lol

jess unnie:he revealed that he almost forgot to zip one time. :eek: what and when was this?!?!?! aigoo i would love to have seen his face when his dancers pointed it out lol ah he must've blushed and looked shyly away like always kawaii neh!!! thnx for your comment on my banner, actually once i had it up, i looked at the picture with the party hat and because of his white beenie it looks like an ice-cream cone lol don't you think so??? ah ur banner's cute as well!! it looks very spring ish v. fresh and clean!

minty_angel: hey i don't think i've seen u here before :welcome: hope you come in here more often it's very friendly! bi is 24 but the koreans add one more year like the chinese do with the lunar calendar, i think the koreans go by the lunar calendar and not the normal 1 right jess?? hope that answers your question! :happy:

[gracecherry]

ahh, wow seems like rachelle & jess unnie, karen, teardrop alredy hang up their bi sets? hmm, ahh, i gues i m the only one here not using PS and putting something as simple, coz i dont noe how to use PS so i can only have something real simple.my theme revolves around bi's smile. his smile is amazing as it is almost brilliant, despite the tough path he went thru and he could still retain his sunshine smile and a vibrant personality when many would have those personalities tarnished, so i want to have my bi sets acknowledging that. hehe ^_^


minty_angel > bi is supposed to be 24th, but the koreans are jus like the chinese , they would add a year to the original age. this is due to the differences in calendar.hehhe, its ok...u didnt say anything stupid. ^_^ dont worry k, this is a very warm n friendly thread.

rachelle unnie > ommo!! reallly? thats amazinggg! really hope bi will make a video to acknowledge the efforts of RAIN SG!!

karen > yea, its more expensive than the average chinese cuisines,hehe.yea, u noe, when i was reading that blog, i was like boiling inside too, to punnish that guy, i m thinking if i shud post it in the soompi bi thread so that the members cud bashed him badly. argh....but then i think all he wants is 'attention'???? so i gues he is most probably too jealous of bi, he is a universe away from the kind of guy bi is....what a looser!

jess unnie > oh now i c wat worries u, and yea i cant take it too if bi wud ever walk the way of junki!! i mean,they are different. bi is toooo manly to ever use that image, well, lets jus hope that neutral gender means just like, being usual, as in not so much chest revealing pictures the way the its raining posters have. ^_^ choi sung joon? i shal go check if he is one of shin's friends.heehhe. ahh, nope i dont hav the soft subs to 'dont noe love' ....and, japan RD making? i remember i have quite alot of clips on his japanese performances, but not too sure.i'll check out someday.hehhee. but yes yes,u are rite, all those efforts for jus a 2 hr perf! no wonder he impressed everyone at the concert, becoz, he worked hard for it and planned the concert to be a breathtaking one!i really love those rehearsal segtions, i totaly luv the part where he was practising its raining and he did this sexy butt touching action, n his dancer was like teasing/laughing at him,then he too cant hold his shy expression ....and gave this sly smile, ommo, he is jus too kiowa! oh btw, wat does the hangul in ur banner says? does it say saengil chukahamnida? ^_^
unnieeeee!! ommo, i finaLLY found that song in goong that i say i like!! its so difficult to try each of those tracks, its called 'aeng moo sae' by howl, and its categorized under additional song.aigoo, and OMMMO, i m listening to the song in yeon now too...this song is amazing , when the first word starts i jus hav ljk's face as the tightrope walker all over in my mind.....

teardrop > oh i c i c.ehehe.i get wat u mean by saying simple korean phrases and ppl giving us weird looks,ehhee, but its ok...hehee. hmm,but seems like this korean friend of mine, isnt exactly into k entertaintment? ehhe,so funny, it seems i noe more of k dramas,movies, songs than he does,ahahhaha. but oh well...yes, kimchi noodle IS spicy, but ppl here, as in we malaysians are highly ok with spicy/hot...coz our local delicacies are mostly hot.eehe.

[minty_angel]

thanks teardrop and gracecherry:wave:
ok, i was wondering if it was something like that=] i love rain lOTS but dont chat on threads as much
actually last last tuesday i sent him a letter. lol i hadnt sent a international letter by myself b4 n i was so embarassed coz i had to check with the lady at the counter if i could send it in a small blue envelope and everything.. i wonder if the letters even get to Bi. oh well - i'm hoping that i'm lucky !
i wish so badly he would come to australia!! i'm hoping like crazy that he decides to come here on his world tour.
where do you guys live? n have any of you been lucky enough to meet him?:tongue:

[gracecherry]

minty_angel > ellooo, ur welcome, hope u wud always feel nice coming here, u sent him a letter? how ? to which address? actually, i hope that ur letter wud eventually reach him too, if u sent to the JYPE address, i gues the staff wud be kind enuf to jus add into his other fan letters to pass to him, but nex time if u wana send him anything, its better to send thru fanclubs,higher chances of making it to him.ehehee, u can join RAIN USA....for his upcoming bday, the club as for the past 2 mths collected cards, gifts etc etc from fans of any country across the world to be sent to him, i made a photo booklet to intro a bit about myself as his fan and where i m from etc etc and greeting him etc etc, so i sent to NY and then the moderators wud compile everything and send to jype.hehe.since u oso like bi like us, do join us in discussing his updates etc...^_^
i m from malaysia, so far nope havent had the chance to meet him yet, but JESS did! eehehe.at his MSG RD.

[minty_angel]

gracecherry that's a good idea haha i didn't think of that. i sent it to his fanletter address: JYP Entertainment
#123-50 Chungdam-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, Korea
it would be too late to send one to US now i think=[. i hope rain gets your photobook:wink2:
when i sent the letter, i also included a thousand stars...haha i cut up about 400 stars and the rest were the sparkle/glitter ones that you buy..i couldn't think of what to give him .
thanks for being so friendly and all=]
LUCKY jess! haha if rain came to australia i would have sleepless nights for a month. Is rain going to Malaysia for the tour next year?

[gracecherry]

minty_angel > wow thats soo sweet of u. ahh, i wrote quite alot inside my photo book too, mostly about how i wish he can be happy and not regret over his mom's death. ehehe, his past and his determination deeply touches me. so...ehehe.everyone is as friendly so i m sure u wud not have any problem getting to noe everyone. ahh, jess went to both his MSG RD, and she got like front row seats, so i m sure she has a great view. ive read about many fan experiences of meeting him and i can feel he is very nice towards his fans, unless he has no choice,hehe, if in the case of airport arrival, i gues he cant be too nice, coz its gona cause chaos,lol. but if we are lucky to have met him personally somehow....i m sure he is a super nice guy! ehhee, well, i gues yes, KL is included in the nex rain asia tour.i dont noe if i can afford the tics anot though,ahh....and oh, mayb u wud like to join our bi bday theme week too??? heehhee....it started ytd...

[teardrop]

KAREN HUNNY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY HUNNY!!!!!! ^_^ *quickly gets the bi blow up doll and prettend to have husky voice singing happi b'day :shifty:*

[may_510]

Just dropping by to wish Karen jie,

SAENG-IL CHUKAHAMNIDA, KAREN dong-saeng!!!
Many many happy returns!! :clink:
Ahh, June baby too eh? Hehehe

Wow, I see almost everyone has their Bi-bday b-set up :shy:

teardrop, I remember you asking why I'm having a short semester right? Ah, well, that's coz the uni is trying to merge our small class with another small class from an earlier intake :cry:
I'm terribly occupied with assignments as well as getting ready for exams coz we won't be having any study break ><

Anyhow, you girls can still catch me in the Rain Malaysia forum :tongue: I keep myself active there :rolleyes:

[jbalibean]

Happy Birthday Karen! :huglove: Many returns of the day sweetie!!:D

i was saying dae han ming guk That's such a coincidence! I was talking to my friend and asked him if he liked watching the World Cup, then I said the same thing ~ haha
I read part of that blog, that guy says some pretty awful things about Bi ><

teardrop~ oh, I already knew about the Pantech song, but I didn't realize it was released as an actual song, I thought it was just an ad for the company. I remember trying to dl the song, this link and the link at sexybi don't work >< Same with the link for the English song=.=
Thanks for the links though :hugz: I'll go dig around at soompi to see if they still have any non-clubbox links.
Yeah, that's the guy.

The song that grabs me the most is 'Foolish Love' but I know it's only because it's upbeat and I'm able to sing along :blush:
I like 'I don't understand love' the most, although it's hard because his voice appeals to me in a different way on each song :excited: That's cool that they fulfilled your request!

Jess~ wasn't that nice?! I thought he did a great job, I was a little concerned because he seemed to be a little out of breath in a few parts

Karen~ Bulgoki is beef, whereas Dukbokgi is a spicy rice cake(you see them in many dramas, and are considered a snack item that you can buy off the street)

[minty_angel]

gracecherry yeah it's so sad when he talks about his mum's death. did you watch the 7 rainmakers ?
i'm glad that a lotta people say he's really down-to-earth and nice guy.
hehe maybe you can start saving up for the tix?
how do i join the bi birthday week theme?

[rachelle03]

OMG, I missed this thread for a day and there's so many posts. :D

Hi there mintyangel! :wave:

jess: *hi5* We are too intoxicated by Road For Rain photos arent we? lol. Hold on, hold on, control yourself before you click onto that HMV JP website. :D I've uploaded the YTN news at the D/L section. :wink2: Thank you and I like your banner set too! That soft pink... very KANR. Feel like giving him a squishy hug :love: How do you add the korean words in? I couldnt get those in. >< Do you need a special font or something?
I feel sad when EC went back to Aussie, revisiting those places where she met MH. :depresse:

teardrop: Thank you for your compliments! :happy: Yes, indeed he had very smooth vocal. Perhaps thats why we are mesmerized by that deep voice... esp in Ak Soo. Aww.

grace: We do want him to retain his sunshine smile. I still remember his tired exhausted look during the beginning of the year. Glad that he's doing it well now. He'll be energised and he'll be back!

*quickly gets the bi blow up doll and prettend to have husky voice singing happi b'day*
LOL. Do we get that performance during our bi-day too, teardrop?

[ker_ai_teresa]

Jenna--> thanx for your PM. :hugz:
forgive me, but your friend sounds just a tad bit....selfish? :rasp:
it's just a building for goodness sakes! and she doesn't own it. :rolleyes:

I'm glad you're much more open-minded dearie. ^^

and thanx for the reminder!

Seang Il Chuka Hamnida, Ji Hun! :D
a day earlier but I might forget tomorrow. ><
may you grow even hotter with maturity! :D

[panda_shine]

It's soo nice to see everyone with their banner set!! Everyone is so creative with the party hats and balloons hehe.. so cute! :happy:

Before I did hear about how Road For Rain was really expensive.. but I didn't realized it was THAT expensive until last night.. when I saw it at HK's HMV set. I was soo shock!!

Rach: Aww.. 'you' made it to the news hehe. I really hope Bi receives the ticket too! I love your banner!! It's very nice!! :excited:

Jessica: heh.. yeah I was looking at your avatar and thought the number '5' looked familiar. :D Yeah! Bi would definitely look not attractive with eyeliner.

teardrop: Oopsies.. those aren't Oppa's new songs hehe. Those are Shinhwa's :tongue: .. Sorry for the confusion! Oh, some Korean food aren't spicy ^^. Kamsahamnida for your birthday greet! Hehe... even though there's no 'real' blow up doll but your thought touched me <3 :D :happy: This makes me wonder if Bi would ever come out with merchandise..like mini figurines..? I think that would be neat :happy:

Grace: Aww.. your set has a theme to it.. that's so deep! Hmm, actually your avatar made me wonder about Bi's teeth lol. I don't think I've really looked at it/pay much attention to it..until now! Yeah! I think the guy is just jealous of Bi.. I think he posted his own picture in the earlier post and.. um.. I don't think he really had the 'right' to judge Bi like that.. :oops:

Hi minty_angel! Just like Grace mentioned, I hope your letter and stars reaches to Bi too! The stars idea is so thoughtful! Oh, there's no specific rules on how to join the birthday theme week. All you do is put your avatar and banner with Bi in it. Just remember to follow the specific banner size rules though :wink2: Looking forward to seeing your set! :happy:

May: Hi!! Yay! You are participating in the theme week! Kamsahamnida for the birthday greet!! Btw.. you called me 'Karen jie' even though I am younger than you hehe... :tongue: Come back soon!! :wave:

Jenna: Kamsahamnida for the birthday greet!

eek..so many backlogs :sweat: i was feeling sad because all the teams i intended to cheer for didn't make it :cry: can't believe i have to wait another 4 years to see them again ><

a quick update on Bi

Rain will be full-time singer in the next half year.
After the "cyborg" movie filming, Rain will release the first Japan Album
in August..The album is almost done already..The promotion will take
longer. Then in Oct, he is going to release the 4th korean album, the showcase
will take place in Seoul, targets all fans in Asia.
After that, Bi will start his next Asia concert tour which covers 11 countries,
total 35 concerts. The tour will be end in next April...

--JYP cancelled the third Single based on Japanese fan's input??
--The concert tour will be end in April when Rain's first contract is over.
let's wait for Rain's new deal
--Fans begin thinking about how to get VIP tickets of the showcase.
I think that's big headache, especially for fans in other countries.

minty_angel: :welcome: you should stop by more often and discuss about him. you'll love him more each day ^_^ hope your letter reaches him!
i guess i'm the only active one on this thread who saw him twice and up close during his Rainy Day concert in NYC. i felt so fortunate that he chose here instead of LA. i've been watching him perform through my laptop for too long so seeing him in the flesh is very surreal. i've typed a bit of my experience for both nights in the past thread..i think on part 5 ^^ as for the bday theme week, you just have to make a avatar/banner and decorate it with bday wishes :-)

teardrop: it was during one of his Rainy Day concerts..in Japan i think? hehe, now that you mentioned it..it does look like an ice cream cone :D i really like that pic though. he looks like a curious little boy dipping his finger on the frosting of the cake and tasting it :love:

grace: aww, your theme is so sweet! his smile always brightens up my day :happy:
i'll miss his chest/abs baring if he tones it down, but doing it too much will lose it's magic. i hope his new image won't be too shocking ^^; when i saw him with the vest for It's Raining, it took me a while to adapt. i can never accept that egyptian vest he wore during the MAA and the beginning of his Rainy Day tour :oops: i love the bond he has with his dancers. seems like he can work so well with them. i'm sure there are conflicts with ideas sometimes, but they can still work it out in the end to make the dance more solid. because of him, i like his dancers too. the hanguel says "saengil chukha hae". i'm using the informal term :whistle: oooh, you're looking for Howl's song? why didn't you tell me sooner. i have his whole album =P
LOL..when you mentioned wang sagajji, i thought about FH. it was the first time i heard those words used to much :D

karen: HAPPY BI-LATED BIRTHDAY! :hugz: :kisschee: :flowers: hope you had a fun bday and that all your wishes come true! anybody gave you any Bi related presents? :brows: i still think that your brother should've bought you those socks with his face printed on them, hehe.

may: it's so hard to catch you around this thread now. maybe i'll have to join Rain M'sia and stalk you from time to time =P

jenna bean: let us know what you think about those songs teardrop uploaded! i love dukbokgi too! the first time i ate it was after the 1st night of his RD concert. it was a bit spicy for me, but it taste delicious ^^

rach: i just DLed a YTN news clip from a clubbox. it might be same one you uploaded. i'll check both out ^^ haha, if i have the luxury to order things online, i don't think i can control myself after seeing so many of those hot pics :drool:
you need to install korean fonts and then type out the words. if you're using windows xp (or earlier versions), the installation instructions can be found here (http://www.declan-software.com/korean_ime/#XPinstall).
are you going to start My Girl soon? :excited:

tes: did you almost forget his bday? :cry: :rasp: and yay for the Aussie team for advancing! *waves pom poms*

sandy: i'm so happy to see you back to wish him a happy bday :hugz: how's your job hunting now?

ira dongseng! we miss having you around! *huggles tight to ira so she won't disappear again* aigoo, i hope your injury isn't very serious :cry: i'm glad you have something to keep you entertained :console: aah! you'll be watching MISA too?!! how did she know about that drama? did you watch it before?

Tess~ :excited: yay, you stopped by again!! :huglove: You should come by more often, not just for special events ~keke
forgive me, but your friend sounds just a tad bit....selfish? It's okay, I agree with you and I yelled at her for acting like this ><
She thinks by giving away the location of the building, she's decreasing her chances of being with Bi (as if no one else can find out the address :rolleyes:)
he is such a WANGSAGAJII haha, I agree! Is this the same as 'eejashiki' (jerk)? My my, we do get passionate about Bi!^^

Irina ~ :ohmy: Are you okay? :console: May you have a speedy recovery ~ HWAITING!! :nunchuks:

Jess ~ actually 2 out of the 3 links already expired; I was only able to download the Pantech mv, but it doesn't work :cry: I tried opening it with different programs and still..nothing :sadangel: haha, if that was too spicy, stay away from the korean bbq sauce, your tongue will thank you later!

Pucca!!!:excited: so cute~ makes me wish I had a birthday in June:happy:

[rachelle03]

It's 25th and it's raining right now in SG. :D

Saengil Chukha Hamida, Ji Hunnie!
May all your wishes come true!

Here's some love from Ji Hunnie himself.

That sounds so nice. ^^

jess: Ooh, thanks for the help for the K-language. Kamsamida! ^^ Guess what, I just bought My Girl vcd! I started the first episode yesterday. It was indeed pretty funny. :D

Ira: Get well soon! :flowers:

[minty_angel]

hello grace , jess, rachelle and pandashine :wave:
yay it's rain birthday!!
whoooO!:-)
i'm called Monique by the way=) . i made a banner of rain<3
hehee:)
i wonder what he'd be doing right now...

[ker_ai_teresa]

She thinks by giving away the location of the building, she's decreasing her chances of being with Bi
oh please.
as if she really does have a chance of getting with him. :rolleyes:
we'd all like to think we have.

hmm.....or perhaps there's something I don't know about your friend? :shifty:

thanx for sharing the gif rachelle! ^^
it made me go awwwwww! he should show this side of him more often.
it reminds me of why I fell for him to begin with. ^^

jess--> fingers crossed that the schedule to release 4th jib in early october won't change! I'll be able to buy the album there instead of through yesasia for once! :bounce:

[panda_shine]

Saeng-il Chukahamnida Ji Hoon oppa!! A bit late .. I forgot about the time zone difference :oops: . I wonder how he celebrated it? Hope he had a great celebration with his closest ones and I hope that he'll always be healthy and happy too. :happy:

Yesterday, I watched a clip of the Freeway performance.. is it really old? But anyways, it was nice seeing him perform (since I've never seen it) but I think I prefer the MV more because he was soo much cuter (not that he wasn't in the perf :D).. I liked his white outfit in the performance!

Grace: kamsamida!! Hehe, yeah Bi has bunny teeth but it's cute.. :happy:

May: LOL.. yeah, I noticed the "dong-saeng" part too. I was like *hmm* hehe.

Ira: You are injured?? Hope you get better soon!!

Jessica: Yeah!! It was a bit sad to see Japan go.. and when the Koreans couldn't advance further, it was even more sadder. Kamsamida!! No.. I didn't get any Bi related presenets hehe. I really hope I can get the 4th album as soon as it comes out too :worry:

Rach: The .GIF is sooo cute!! Haha.. I keep looking at it again and again. :shifty:

Monique: It's so nice to see your Rain avie up!! :excited:

[gracecherry]

monique > hi hi..its so nice to see that u joined our theme week of bi's bday! hehee....me too, alot of times when i m silly or bored, i just stared into the air and wonder wat he is doin,hahahhaaha....

karen >yes yes, its the bunny teeth that made him cute.but its not always noticeable in every picture, only certain pics.

jenna > yes,i think the term ejashikii = jerk.hehehe. heard quite a few times in dramas.actually when i first read, i was not feeling that bad...but then, his words jus sink in and i m like Grrrr. but but, i scroll down n realize he hates jay as much too, so he is jus a total loser...

jess unnie > oh tat egyptian vest, yes me too, i stil cant really accept it till now, i m ok with the its raining buttoned vest though,^_^, and...u noe wat, i was very very unhappy with the match of SK Vs Switzerland, its jus unfair, the referee was very very.....crazy, i mean, its so obvious that why everytime they go after the ball,and some little things happen,and the ball has to be given to the swiss? and the 2nd goal was just simply unbelivable! i cant belive they passed that as a real score, i read manyYYY reviews on tat match and the professional reviewers too think that, the koreans were treated unfair.ahh, this also cause quite a huge chaos among the koreans, i saw this photo from the air that a few million koreans were at streets in seoul ,i think, protesting, the fifa web was bombarded by millions of korean mails.>_<, they hav a petition that if more than 5 million ppl signed it,the match has to be rebroadcasted.

[jessica]

jenna bean: aigoo...none of the links work on sexybi? you should be able to find Sad Tango and the Pantech MV there. what format is the Pantech MV you DLed? i know that the first version that came out was in .flv format and it only plays in a .flv player :wacko: if the links are down, i'll upload them for you if you still need it :happy: i successfully DLed the subbed Free Way PV! the subs were a bit too bright for my comfort, but i do appreciate having it there ^^; i wanted to try korean bbq, but never had the chance. maybe i'll lay off that idea for a while ^^;

rach: it has been raining over the weekend here also :D aww, i remember that part where he winked during the fanmeeting :love: omo! you already started My Girl?!! :excited: what episode are you on right now?

monique: i see your avie, but you banner doesn't show up ^^; he celebrated his bday with his manager and staff :happy:

tes: if JYPE doesn't push the release date, it should be on Oct 14th or 15th. he does show his cute side a lot. just that his sexiness overshadows that side of him for you :tongue: did you watch his Free Way PV yet? he made a lot of cute facial expressions there <3

karen: the performance you saw isn't too old. he performed Free Way during the end of May to the beginning of June. i prefer his perf on Music Fighter (without the cap) than on Pop Jam (with the cap). the camera angle for the latter was not as good =P

grace: hehe, Bi doesn't really have bunny teeth..well, not very noticeable anyway :tongue: he doesn't have perfectly straight teeth, so the 2 front teeth protrudes a bit. i didn't watch the match between SK and Switzerland so i didn't know that so many things went wrong. i might have to DL that game later on and see how unfair the referees were =/
oh, i found a short translation to the Q & A part of Jun Ki's fanmeeting. i'll post it on his thread ^^

news on where he spent his bday and update on his movie:

Rain Celebrates Birthday with JY Park and Crew Members
26 Jun 06 Chosun Daily/ Starnews

Kr to Ch: Irbi@biwithrain
CH to Eng: Rayndrop

Asian Star, Rain, had a mini celebration with Park Jin Young and staff members of JYPE.

It's Rain's 24th birthday on the 25th. This day, around 8pm, Rain celebrates his birthday at a restaurant in Seoul, Shinsa-dong, with Park Jin Young and more than 10 other staff members from JYPE including his dancers and manager.

Those who attended the party said Rain, who had his party on a Sunday night when the restaurant had the most customers, signed autographs one by one for more than 20 fans who were eating nearby.

At around 10 am that day, Rain was at a Studio in Seoul, Kangnam, doing a photoshoot with Im Soo Jung for "Cyborg"'s publicity posters, so he did not manage to have his traditional kelp soup, a birthday must-have for Koreans, at the start of the day. Fortunately, the soup at the gathering that night happened to be kelp soup, and that marked the beautiful conclusion to his birthday.

Rain's movie is scheduled to wrap up next month. He'll begin recording for his 4th album officially in August.

i was watching some of his older performances and came across one i thought was very cute. this was another one of his "slack" performance. during the beginning of Familiar Face, he can't stop giggling. it affected his singing too :D it took him a while to compose himself. i think he's laughing at Ms. Orange because it was after looking at her that he burst out in giggles. i uploaded it to youtube here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IONOlU2c_Zk). if anyone wants the clip, let me know ^^

[rachelle03]

Rain's 3rd Japanese single will be out on the 9th August while his 1st Japanese album will be out on the 23rd August.

Single:
1. Normal Edition: US$13.25
2. Single + DVD Edition: US$19.25

Album:
1. Normal Edition: US$28.49
2. Album + DVD Edition: US$36.25
3. Album + DVD + T-Shirt Box Edition: US$55.99

Whoa, wouldnt the release dates of the single and album a bit too close? :?

jess: I'm at ep. 5 now. The show is really getting funny. At first I find LDH's acting a bit over exaggerated but now I find her so funny. Esp. when she's dreaming of Gong Chan throwing money at her, the part where GC thought his grandfather is dead but Yoorin told him about the beeeeep sound on the machine. :D Somehow GD's character reminds me of Hyun Bin in MNIKSS. His family background and his ex-girlfriend.
I just saw the clip you posted on youtube. lol. I think he missed his steps or something, therefore ending too near to Ms Orange or maybe some insider jokes. :D

grace: I saw that second goal of Swiss vs SK. I saw the linesman held up the flag! Even my friend who watched the whole match say that it's an offside. As the SK players saw the linesman held up the flag, everyone stopped defensing, even the goalkeeper. At the very moment, the swiss player kicked the ball in very easily. The referee denied the offside while (I think) the lineman said it's his mistake and misjudgement. I think the blunder did caused some emotional upset in the SK players afterthat in the match.

[jessica]

rach: i know what you mean about the close release dates. i've read previous news that he's not going to release his 3rd single. i guess they're still going through with their original plan. as long as it's selling, then why not :sweat:
hmm, i don't know if it was missed steps. i'll have to observe that part again. it seems to be an insider joke to me more. that was the first time i see him like that :D
when i first watched MG, LDH's (Yoo Rin) character annoyed me because she seem so hyper all the time. but after the first few episodes, i started to get a hang of it. she carries the show so well and makes everything light and funny. what do you think about Gong Chan (Lee Dong Wook) and Jeong Woo (Lee Jun Ki)? :whistle: at the beginning, i thought the person driving the bus was a female and was surprised that a girl will have a job like that, until he spoke ^^;
oh, so that's what happen with that match. i only saw a short recap of it and saw some angry faces but i didn't understand the commentator because he was speaking Spanish ><

a fan who bought Road for Rain commented on the content of the DVD and Bi's big kid attitude :laughing:

STORY NO.1

There was a scene about Rain's taking the cigar. After capturing, ms. photographer (i call her 'sister' from now on...) showed him the previews...
This kid, holding half of the cigar, boasted proudly "Yeah MAN!! This's what a REAL MAN looks like!!!"

While everybody was preparing for the following scene and moved forward,
Rain just looked up and smoked deeply.... in the next second, immediately he got chocked and kept coughing... ... and couldn't even walk in straight line coz he's a bit faint now
HAHAHA... He really makes me laugh crazily... OMG this kid is d**n cute!!!


STORY NO.2

There was once RAIN discussed with sister (ms. photographer) about exchanging the roles
... He'll take the camera and capture some pictures for her~~ The sister was very happy, and she's ready to give him a hug...
RAIN also opened his arm, but... haha this silly child misused his strong arms and accidentally hurt sister, bruised... this poor child was shocked and apologized immediately...
Haiz... next time please tune down your strength....


STORY NO.3

This is another photographing session on the beach

They needed to spray some water on Rain's chest, to create some SeXY and eXoTIc looks~~~
Therefore, the sister took out the mineral water for him...
It was d**n HOT, but the water was icy cold...
As a result of the big temperature difference,
whenever there was a WATER SPRAY on his body, this kid opened his eyes BIG, and turned small... SPRAY again, BIG EYES again... HAHAHAA

[small eyes --> cold water --> BIG eyes --> back to small eyes] repeat 'n' times~

Poor Rain Rain, perhaps in his mind he muz be wondering "Hey hey!! how much water you wanna spray on me huh...??"
Unfortunately he could not complain, but from the facial expression he seemed gonna burst out laughing... and tried very hard to hold his lips tight...
His shoulder was shaking when being sprayed... yet still glancing at the camera, pretended to be COOL.... Oh gosh he's so amusing!! Make us laugh like hell....
This kid is really good at acting COOL...

STORY NO.4

Here's where he sprained his neck (poor boy~)

Although his neck sprained, Rain insisted to sit on the director seat, watching his actions and movement profesionally~~~
Meanwhile, his body tend to move along while he was watching at the screen~~
Try to imagine yourself, with buttocks 'sticked' on the chair but moving his shoulder.... his hands, and the foot!!
Looked at his facial expression, HAHAHAHA!!!
Guess what? Following the beats, this kid is doing facial exercises!!!
The eyebrow... the eyes... the nose... the mouth…. All are 'dancing' very hard as if there's a competition among them!!! GOsh that was too lovable!!!

[finally i understand how he did the mouth wave in FreeWay PV... undoubtedly he has undergone a very good muscle training on his face... ]


STORY NO.5

There were several scenes that Rain sat on the ground and took off his shoes... I feel like laughing....
His foot were very dirty, so this naughty kid used his bare foot 'holding' a cloth, trying to clean up his foot... The staff beside him also did the same thing to him... Like small kids playing around~~~ Ah I can't stand anymore....

For photographing purpose, Rain had to change his hairstyle quite frequent, which was set by the hairstylist~~
Eh-hem, most of the time, you'll see several girls (staffs) surrounded him...
Some holding the fan, some doing the hairstyle.... Rain sat comfortably like a prince looked SUPER ENJOYED~~~
I'm also feeling HOT now~~~


STORY NO.6

Still remember there's a photo, that Rain wears white blouse with his cute colorful Rainbow hat???

Well it was an extremely hot day, you should know that Cuba is d**n chilli hot in May....
Rain's manager was worried about this kid, so he took a big umbrella and hold it for him...
BUT our dear Rain, this mischievous kid started to play HIDE-and-SEEK with mr. manager~~~
He kept running away!!
Drank some water.... ran here & there....
Once mr. manager didn't pay attention to him, this kid quickly sneaked away~
HAHAHA from the screen you can see a big brother holding a big umbrella.... chasing after a 'small' kid with Rainbow hat~~~ AHAHAAHAAA~~~!!!

STORY NO.7

One more thing, Rain and sister are really good friend~
From the appearance, she's tomboy-looking (actually the original word is 'MAN'....?! A 'very MAN-looking' lady?! )
You can tell that the atmosphere is very harmony & very relax when watching they worked together...

Well it's nothing about envy, I just feel relieved when Rain is so treasured and well protected throughout the making
-- especially when the sister cracked a joke and hit gently on his arms, this kid pretended to be so hurt...
Then swing swing his waist and arms around like what naughty children do...
Acting like a spoiled brat~~~
Noone could imagine a 184cm guy acting shamelessly like 3 year-old little boy...
The sister laughed madly seeing his actions!!
Audience like us... can only keep mouth-watering with twinkled eyes in front of TV.... Jealousy rating booost up!!
AAarggh~~~ OTK!! OTK!! OTK!! OTK!! OTK!! OTK!! <-- anyone knows what does this mean?


STORY NO.8

In the making of Road for Rain, some photographing sessions were done on the way to next destination...

Rain has extremely good balancing ability as we all know, nowhere seemed to be a difficult balance point to him....
BUT!!! When everybody walked normally on flat road...
this kid AGAIN (sigh~~) showed his extraordinary 'talent'....
He broke his shoes.... [and none of the team members broke theirs]
Oh, this fool little kid... I'm wordless!!!
Shall I laugh or sigh for him?!?!


STORY NO.9

It was a scene to show Rain picking up some fruits on local stalls...

He was asked to hold some fruits and at the time being, picked up more fruits with another hand.
Suddenly, the fruits fell down from his arms...!!
The uncle at the stall immediately squinted his eyes and stared at Rain....
Wahahaa!!! This kid was scared~~
He quickly picked up the fruits and carefully checked on every of them if there were any bruises...
Heiheihei, I know what's inside his mind...
He must be thinking: Oh NO! God bless the fruits are okay, else I gotta spend $$ again....

STORY NO.10

Rooftop scenes... Rain squated on the ground so that the hairstylist could set up his hair easily...
This playful kid, of course he wouldn't just sit there quietly~~~
He talked loudly (he's talkative too... = =) to sister....
It must be some funny jokes because I can see the 'classical three-line smiley' on his face again~~
(his small eyes + sexy lips... all in parallel~~)

He's so excited that he started waving his arms... and his hands posed like 'eagle claw'...
Gosh the most awful thing is that: from certain photographing angle, his 'eagle claw' seemed to touch on the sister's chest!!!
HAHAHAA sure this naughty kid didn't know that the cameraman had captured on his movement from this kinda angle...
I'm gonna mad...
At first I thought this puppy boy purposely put his paw on people's chest!!!
Nearly spurts blood and collapse.......!!!! O_o Luckily he's not!!!


STORY NO.11

This boy huh, he's kinda busy body and 'ke-po'...
No matter WHO, or any CAMERA that TOOK HIS PHOTOS (either he's alone or with others)
he MuZ grab it and had a good look on the photos....

Hey com'on, it's just not ONE camera, he did the same thing to ALL camera okay?? Somemore he'll comment on the pictures taken......

dear Rain... orz.... I have no comment on your funny actions...


STORY NO.12

[please prepare yourself with toilet papers or facial tissues... you may be bleeding when reading this]

Here came more SeXxxY scenes... <-- sounds more inTerESting!

He was inside the swimming pool, either putting on some clothes, or bared his upper body....
Simply the sEX appeal....
His whole body was wet, shimmering under the lights... water dripping from his hair... Can everyone of you imagine about that?!!!
[With sound effects "SH-HA-SHH-HAA~~" from 'It's Raining']

After they finished photographing, this boy immedietely grabbed a bottle of red wines, didn't even bother that he was still half-naked...
Inside the pond, he just laid beside and started to enjoy the WINES with dried INSTANT NOODLES... (>_< very unique taste... pal....) and.... gave an earnest expression 'Please do not disturb'...
Well speaking frankly, with the red wine he did look like a professional liqour expert.... What a pity that in front of him was actually.....


STORY NO.13

Last scene!! <-- finally... *_*

Wearing his orange tee, hat and sunglasses, Rain was thanking the production team and hoped that everyone can support his album... *Sincere and earnest*

The background was a warm and homely Cuban village, and the production team worked hard to finish this last scene...
"OVER!!" It had come to the end, Rain knew about that and he began to relax...
but WAIT!!! The lens pulled away and now we can see his whole body...
Do you ever think... what was he holding when he spoke seriously at the lens?

HAHAHAHHAAA SQUID rolls!!! His hands were full of SQUID rolls!!!
FAINT~~~~ I simply admire his strong resistance, I never know that it was bunch of SQUID ROLLS under the lens!!!!

Then, this kid keep squeezing the snacks into his mouth... and the staffs also quickly snatched them from his hands... For sure this kid would fight to protect his snacks!!!
---- 3rd World War becoz of snacks ---
After some staffs left, he glanced around carefully and looked at the remaining snacks in his hand....
Only he's ensured that the food was enough for him to enjoy, he then dared to follow the team...

[gracecherry]

jess unnie > ahh, so those were the stories you mentioned to me about? ahhhh,they were indeed very interesting to read about, i mean, so many times, he had made me speechless, becoz i jus cant imagine someone like him has such a big kid attitude, it just made him as ordinary as everyone else. but yet not. its a very ironic contrast,u get wat i mean? usually ppl who are very successfull either businessmen or big stars, they have some sorta personality that makes them a level different than the common ppl...but bi isnt, tats y i always find him so special.ommo u didnt noe bout that match? it caused a very very chaotic situation among the SK football fans.SHG was actually watching the match live, in germany and she cried when the team lost >_<
oh i thought ji hunnie wud be having a simple celebration with his appa and his sister too?


rachelle unnie > ahh,yes yes,everyone stop defensing, and that swiss player just, ooops~ kicked it in, i was at first sleepy,then i was allllllL awake. coz i was like, ommo, what the heck happened? i can see that some of the SK players were furious, they have every right to be. ahh, i was jus like u and jess unnie too, i thought JYR was annoying at first, then slowly, i started to like her * the part where she told director SGC 'mister, the machine has to go deeee.....to indicate that the person has passed away' AIGOOO, i nearly fall off my chair...so funny, and many more, like how she keep falling on the bed in frog style when GC goes into her room. hahaha ^_^*

monique > hmmm? its weird, coz i can see ur banner very well since the day u put it up ,hehehe....

[teardrop]

miss may:Ah, well, that's coz the uni is trying to merge our small class with another small class from an earlier intake why are they doing that?? surely it'd not taking a good effect on the students!!! awww poor you!!! exams already?!?! how many?!? good luck!!!! :D

jenna:yea they realised the pentech as a song but i don't think that they actually released it on cd. i think it was just for the net. awww sorry the links weren't working for you *pout bad links!!!* so i've uploaded both songs for you hope you can dl it now, i can't remember if you said u were able to dl the pantech mv??? if you can't then let me know and i'll up load it for you:

LOL. Do we get that performance during our bi-day too, teardrop? ^^^ lol i'm sure why not?!?! i'm sure i can throw in a few more things in as well just gotta let my imagination run...... not really wild bc then it'll be xxxxx rate lol :bleh: :brows:

karean: Oopsies.. those aren't Oppa's new songs hehe. Those are Shinhwa's i think i should be the 1 who says oopsy! i was the 1 who asked for you opinion on "Highway Star" lol, yea it is kinda partyish, and "You're My Everything" is a nice song to listen to as well, easy on the ears hehehe. hhmmm.... wonder if bi is into dolls..... if there actually was a doll of him my guess would be they would make a it's raining bi doll as i think that image is what most ppl think of wen they hear bi. although could have the floppy hair in fh oo can you imagin if they brought out the doll with the ugly green v neck jumper?!?!?! :crazy: originally posted by panda_shine to graceHmm, actually your avatar made me wonder about Bi's teeth why is that?!!? awww grace it think ur avie is such a cute pic of oppa!! :-)

grace: hmm,but seems like this korean friend of mine, isnt exactly into k entertaintment? why is that? was he born in the west? bc i know a few ppl who don't like/know any chinese songs as all they know is western songs. aigOO if i ever come to malaysia remind me to carry milk around with me all the time lol.

jess unnie: aigOO i hope that oppa rests a little bc embarking on such a tremendously hectic schedule!!! he seems to be doing a lot now when he IS filming!! i wonder if he'll have time to promote the movie?? but i really can't wait for his new music!! :excited: he looks like a curious little boy dipping his finger on the frosting of the cake and tasting it :lolabove: now that you mention it he looks waaayyyyy too young to be 24/25!! lol Those who attended the party said Rain, who had his party on a Sunday night when the restaurant had the most customers, signed autographs one by one for more than 20 fans who were eating nearby.
^^^ you just have to love this guy!!! even when he was celebrating he was still kind enough to give autographs *sigh* :love: o i just watched the clip u uploaded to you-tube where he was laughing that he couldn't singing lol it's bc he tripped/steped over the girl in the middle's foot lol you have to be quick and it's only small but watchhis feet he stumbles a tiny tiny bit ^_^ also he doesn't look/sound too well in this performace, was he sick???

[rachelle03]

jess: I just realised the Jap album is so expensive! It's almost the same as Rainy Day DVD.
Gong Chan and Jeong Woo... Hmm... Jeong Woo is of course the nicer character towards Yoo Rin. But I'm still trying to cope with the beautiful features of LJK. :sweat: He looks like a kid next to Yoo Rin. Gong Chan... hmm, he really reminds me of Hyun Bin in MNIKSS!!! Esp when he's nice to Yoo Rin, wanted to send her home from the tennis party, Yoo Rin told him not to be too nice to her. Its like when Sam Soon tells Ji Hyun not to be too nice to her if he doesnt like her. Now I stopped at the part where Yoo Rin tells Gong Chan that they should maintain a distance between them. >.< That driver guy really looked like a girl! I saw one scene where he just arrived at his sister's place and he tied his hair into a ponytail and with his beenie on, I thought who is that girl? :D

grace: I didnt watch the whole match but when I read about news about it, I stayed tuned to the sports channel for a repeat telecast and I saw it. I was like, Oh No!!! >.<
Not forgetting that she knocked her head against the bed's headboard as well. :D

Ommo, read this. He's such an average kid. lol. He's such a funny guy to hang out with.

This is a belated post by a Korean fan.

Hi everyone, I am XX from the world of Cloud.
It's really nothing special.
In actual fact, wasn't yesterday our Jihoon's birthday?
I'm so happy.
Would like to share a really cute Jihoon's story with everybody.
This story has been hidden in my heart for a really long time.

Yesterday, didn't somebody said they went to JYPE and saw Jihoon at an internet cafe?
That reminded me of this incident...
Because there's no news of Rain now,
So I thought I'll give a drizzle of news to everybody.

But everybody knows, right?
My mind is like a fishnet when I'm writing encounters.
Please forgive me...it's very long...

This happened last winter; been many months now.
It was really weird that day. I went to the movies with **
Ate a lot of stuff,
But somehow, I kept feeling the breeze of cold wind in my heart; felt empty inside.
Momentarily, ** and my eyes met...the fireworks was everywhere.
Going to JYPE that day became our mission.
Hence, we went to JYPE, which we have not visited for a long time.

It was really quiet at the doorfront of JYPE.
We stood for 3 to 4 hours, shivering in the cold wind.
My hands and legs were ice-cold; we were freezing and hungry.
We couldn't take it anymore, so we decided to go fill our stomachs...
Could it be...will Jihoon come?
We went back to JYP.

There were two female students standing at its entrance.
I went up and asked: "Who are you here to see? We are fans of Rain."
That student said, "Rain, he just went out with his dance troupe. Think they said something about going to a roadside stall."
Ah~~ OMG, how could this be!
It's not like I'll die from skipping one meal.
I've lost Jihoon right under my nose.
It shouldn't be like that, not like that *wails*.

I endured my heartache, scratched my head and began my journey home.
Right at this moment, someone came within my eyesight.
Haha...it was his assistant walking by.
Where was he going?
I was wondering, and he suddenly disappeared.
He must have gone to look for Jihoon.
I observed around the vincinity and saw a small eatery ahead.
I tried my luck inside.
Jihoon wasn't there. Only saw an elderly man.

Sobs. I really should go home now.
I was half-thinking, half looking at an internet cafe.
Perhaps he's inside???
This thought hung onto me like a magnet.

It was really strange. I only had that thought in my mind...
So we gingerly pushed open the door of the cybercafe.
I caught the sight of Jisung (one of the dancer) sitting on the right.
At that moment, my heart began thumping wildly. I closed the door and came out.
Then after some thoughts, we decided to walk openly into the cafe.
Anyway, it's not like Jihoon would recognise us.

It's all right. Go in...

After we went in, we discovered Jihoon in the left side.
In such a dim place
He could still shine so brightly
That was a non-smoking area, and sitting on Jihoon's right was the dancer troupe leader.
The staff came over and helped us to look for a place.
We said, "Can we sit over there?"
Then we proceeded towards Jihoon, very openly.
I was sitting on Jihoon's left, ** was sitting in front of him.
When I was sitting down, I was so afraid of being discovered by Jihoon, I was shaking all over.
I thought I was going to get cramps in my hands.
I've never shivered like that before.
Ah~ the person seated right beside me
Is the charismatic star on stage, Jeong Jihoon...

I was so afraid Jihoon would hear my heartbeats, I was panicky for quite a while.
Then I was afraid Jihoon would detect something, so I didn't dare to look at him straight.
Jihoon seemed to have danced for a long time that day.
His hair was all damp.
You can only see such hairstyles in comic books.
Looks almost like the hairstyle in Full House when he was being fed the sushi.
Jeans, and top is the red shirt he wore during the autograph session in Myeongdong
Although our hearts were thumping wildly,
We put in a lot of effort so as not to be detected by Jihoon.
I switched on my computer. The darn computer refused to start up!
No...that won't do. I can't change seats.
After a few tries, the PC finally started up.
No need for discussions, we automatically logged on to the chatroom.
The two of us can't talk, can't call on our phone.
We only chatted online.

The cybercafe was very quiet.
Seems like the only noises were the two of us typing on our keyboard.
What should we do?
It was really comical then. The two of us had our eyes glued to the screen,
our hands dadadada typing on the keyboard.
There was a hint of stifled smiles on our lips.
Perhaps the cybercafe staff were afraid we'll spoil the keyboards?
That day, I thought my eyeballs were going to fall out ...
I faced the front, my eyes were looking sideways...looking at Jihoon...
At the beginning, Jihoon seemed to have felt something.
Because suddenly two girls appeared and seated themselves beside him.
But our excellent acting skills covered everything.
After a while, Jihoon was lost in his game...

They were playing Starcraft.
But Jihoon didn't look like he was very good at it.
He was a team with the dance troupe leader.
Shortly after we went in, the game ended.
Jihoon stood up, clapped his hands
He is so cute...Jihoon's side won the game.
Is the game over? Are they leaving now? No...
I was just shouting in my heart
Then the new game started...

Everybody knows what beautiful hands Jihoon has.
But the look of his hands on the keyboard felt different from when he is dancing
Although not very pretty, I am a girl,
and my hands are considered not bad among the fairer sex.
But they are a far cry compared to the big and fair hand of Jihoon's on the keyboard.
I'm totally ashamed.
My hands looked like claws that belonged to something
Jihoon's hands on the mouse and keyboard looked like pianist hands.
No...even prettier than pianist's hands.
Just one pair of hands was enough to drive a person crazy...

I was looking sideways, trying hard to listen...
Ah~ perfect complexion, tall and straight nose bridge...
At this moment, Jihoon said, "Hyung, you go towards that direction."
That face, that voice, completely...
During this period of time, I tried my best to suppress my crazy heartbeats, and concentrated on chatting.
Jihoon while playing his game, was eating biscuits and having a drink.
How can someone look so cute eating biscuits? It's quite maddening.
The cramps which I put in so much effort to suppress is coming back!

30 minutes later, the game ended.
Jihoon stood up suddenly and began clapping.
He said a few words which almost had me rolling on the floor.
"Ah, I practise singing and dancing every day, and I don't even have time for playing games.
Ah, why am I still so good at gaming?"
I couldn't help but blurted out laughing.

Then he said again:
"I even brought my money along to pay for the game"
As he said this, he took out his wallet, opened it and then close it again.
So cute. So cute...
Then, "Hyungs, I give you more time.
Go back and practise gaming, ah...."
So "cultivated".

After that, they got ready to go back to JYPE's practise room.

To me at that time,
If we weren't Clouds, once we came in and see Jihoon,
We would have exclaimed, "Ah, Rain! it's Rain!"
But Jihoon saw that we had no reactions to him
So he stood up and made his presence known.
Those words he said were telling us,
"I'm Rain. I'm a singer. Don't you know me? I'm Rain. Rain..."

** and I burst out laughing at the same time.
He is so cute, like a big kid...

Jihoon was leaving.
He went back to his seat,
Picked up the biscuit boxes and murmured to himself, "Gotta keep these before we go."
Then he bragged him victory to his hyungs...

Once they stepped out, we both stood up and started to laugh loudly.
Jihoon is so adorable!

For the few 10s of minutes, I was breathing the same air as Jihoon.
Just 30cm apart.
I'm still not dead. I'm still alive. It's a miracle!
You girls must be feeling terrible inside, eh...hahaha
Just for that day, I felt so lucky that Jihoon didn't know me.

** and I happily skipped our way home.
Isn't Jihoon cute?
[Rayndrop: Yes]

Jihoon is so eager to "brag".
I like you more and more...what should I do??!!

[jessica]

monique: i think it's just my server that's preventing the image to show up :oops:
you meant the last comment about the wine part right? i think she meant that the dried instant noodle ruined the whole luxurious image :D oh, oh! i would love to have both skins! ^_^ i love that pic you've used! i didn't know you can have these type of skins for windows media player. hope i can get it to work.

grace: this is not the translation i mentioned about ^^ the one that i'll be sending you is the translation of the things he said from R4R :-) one thing i love about him is that he is still so down-to-earth. he jokes and fool around with his friends so openly without holding back and it just makes his charm more appealing. like the story that rach posted below. i don't think it's possible the ppl in S. Korea can't recognize him. that story just reminded me of Wendy's close encounter with him in the airport. i think it's best to pull a blank face when we see him so he'd be more curious as to why we don't acknowledge him :D but it'll be a very difficult task to not react when you're sooooo close to him :sweat: i'd swoon a few times just being so close and noticing small details! ^^;
oh, i found interesting news. someone on Bi's soompi thread asked if he can play any instruments or write his own music and jinlees answered that according to Korean Clouds, he can play a bit of the piano and he wrote (or had input) for handshake, avoid the sun, famous, etc. those 3 listed are my favorites! :excited: i definitely know he had input for "famous" because it talked about his past gf and how she ditched him for a rich guy.
i think he celebrated his bday with his family earlier :happy:

teardrop: yes, he's blessed with having a babyface :love: the movie wraps up soon, and it is said that it'll be in theaters around December, so i think he still has some time to promote it ^^;
i re-watched that clip again today. they were suppose to be standing that close in the original choreography, minus the other dancers. the dancer in the center laughed when she was looking at Ms. Orange, then Bi smiled. after that part where he stumbled too close to both of them, all 3 of them started laughing :D i just found it amusing to see him mess up and giggle uncontrollably for a good few seconds, keke. i think it's the poor sound system that made him sound kind of muffled or he might be suffering from a cold ><;

rach: the jpn album + DVD is around the same price as the Rainy Day DVD (that cost around US$35 in yesasia i think). or do you mean the album alone? yes, it is a very expensive album :oops: aren't most japanese albums around that price range? :sweat:
hehe, LJK's beauty will grow on you (i hope). this might sound weird, but i find that his crying scenes make him look more manly in this drama. wow, you're fast! did you watch the part where JW and YR in the bathhouse? that was one of my favorite scenes :roll:
hehehe, i bet he was wondering why that fan didn't react when she saw him, even when he was making himself known. i love his humorous side when he's with his dancers! <333 any comment about how cautious he is with his money and food always makes me laugh :laughing:

latest updates on our big kid :-)
---In 06-06-25 NHKbs2 Music Express, Bi said he is thinking of going to Hollywood next year.
Something is in processing, and he couldn't disclose anything in detail yet.

---The organizer of Venice movie festival contacts the PD of "cyborg", hope Bi can walk the red carpet.
The event will take place in Aug 30th, by that time, hope "cyborg" is done, and Bi can make it. So far,
no comfirmation yet.

---Bi is invited to be guest in SMAPxSMAP show

credits: jinlees@soompi
hm, i don't know how i'll feel if he decides to act in a hollywood film ^^; he seriously needs to improve his english ^^;

[jbalibean]

Yay, so I just saw the 'Shou ji'/Pantech mv!!! I think it has a nice story line and I really like that part on the bridge~ommo, he looked so cute, those facial expressions :love: It's reminiscent of that one photoshoot he did, by . I'm happy that I was able to get this clip to work^^ I also found enough time to watch the 7 Rainyday maker documentary. I enjoyed watching the footage, although I already knew the synopsis (especially about how he washes his panties~kekeke). I thought that part was so cute, when the reporter was going through his luggage and he found those pairs of underwear,
and bi snatched them away blushing*giggles*
I'm sad Bi's theme week is over,it seemed so short :cry:

Rach~ awww that gif is so cute~thanks for sharing!!

Tess~ actually she works at JYP right now, keke.
I liked his white outfit in the performance!
*high5* Isn't he to die for when he wears white? :drool:
Jess~ Korean bbq is good, but very expensive especially for the casual setting that it's served in. It definitely burnt a small hole in my pocket, but I do
recommend you at least try it once. Also when I was there they had huge screen tvs that were playing Shinhwa mvs and mnet perfs (I saw Rain's!)^u^
i only saw a short recap of it and saw some angry faces but i didn't understand the commentator because he was speaking Spanish If you send the clip to me,I'll be happy to translate for you.

Teardrop~ thank you for reuploading those links, that's sweet of you :hugz: Are you talking the 1st song off of Shinhwa's 6th album "highway (ride with me)" if you are, I absolutely love that song, I've been slightly obsessed with it for months.

Rach~ haha, this story reminds me of those pics I saw of him concentrating so hard while playing his game console~keke

[minty_angel]

grace haha that's funny, coz i can't even see it. :tongue:
teardrop lol yeah, cutting them took 4 hrs and my mum and brother saw and were like.. what are you dOIng? and i just replied... making a birthday card for my friend.. hahaha. it was cool calling him that xD
rachelle: rain sounds like such a cute guy..:D i don't think i could have contained my excitement if it had been me that was in the same cafe as rain.. omg - i'd be jumping all over the place
jess i actually made another skin as well.. :rolleyes: i'll just upload both in case you want it.
It's Raining Skin: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=9Q5OMIFC

[gracecherry]

jess unnie > yes yes! i knew it! i mean, i had so back then spotted out that he must have been able to play the piano quite well,coz the NG of the piano scene of just once in sangdoo was so obvious showing that he played it, and it was pretty smooth, if he isnt very GOOD at it,then he must at least be at the levels of grade 6 or something.and oh noooooo, OTK OTK. that story that rachelle unnie jus posted, it nearly killed me.he is becoming more n more unbelievable! i just cant belive him!
quote : "I'm Rain. I'm a singer. Don't you know me? I'm Rain. Rain..."
if i were that gurl, and if bi really intentionally made his presense known to me and my friends, i would be like, nodding my head n yes yes, we all know you ,ji hun oppa!
oh my,it must be feeling crazy sitting beside him for half n hr! me too would pretend not to know him, only this way, we can stay longer with him.ehhhee.

rachelle unnie > * yes yes,the parts where she knocks herself on the headboards were jus sooo funny. theres more to come, one of the part that impressed me the moST,is when she told GC a series of lies, when they finally made it to the number 63 building, and the final lie about seeing someone u wud fall for when u countdown to 5 secs, tat is one of the most magical part i like.i hope u wud grow to like JW too, i cant really accept his pretty face at 1st too,but then slowly, he just grows....and the part wic jess mentioned in the bathhouse,that was another to die for laughing part.and kumawayo for the fan encounter, oori bi is just too good to be real.

monique > yes it IS weird, coz i can stillll see ur banner, its jus rite there. hehe.

teardrop > oh my friend, he isnt born or raise elsewhere, but in korea itself, hehee, i gues he just isnt very into entertaintment,mayb....oh u mean u need milk to neutralize the spicy-ness in food? ^_^ heheheh.yes i like the way his teeth seem to look like bunny teeth, and its not apparent most of the time, in the pic in my avie,its particularly obvious, awww....

[jessica]

jenna bean: don't you just love his Pantech MV! he was sizzling in those outfits :drool: omo! you have a friend who works for JYP?!! =O can she get inside scoop on Bi by any chance?! how did she get the job?
if i do try korean bbq in the future, i'll go to the same restaurants that Bi went to when he was here! :excited: i wonder if he signed any autographs for the workers there. oh, i forgot that you understand Spanish ^^; i saw that clip on TV, but i think youtube should have it too. it's okay. i'll just wait until my connection is stable enough before DLing that match :happy:
i see you are using Jun Ki's Vonin pic for you banner :shifty: as if it's not hot enough already, that pic just raised my temperature *fans self*

monique: thanks for both skins! :hugz: you've used my favorite picture for the other one :love:

grace: haha, i know how crazy you are about guys who play the piano so i had to share the news with you ^_^ i want to see him play again, maybe for his 4th album! :excited: if he declared who he was to me, i'd just stand there dumbfounded that he'd care to make himself known to me ^^; he must be in a very playful mood that time since he won the game :D such an adorable big kid <3

did you guys see the new concept for Pepsi? i'm sure most of you did already =P Pepsi is going to give Bi a sexy image and his clothes will be less than what Jolin will wear. if i only read about that tidbit without seeing the outfit Jerry wore, i'd be very excited about it...but now i'm a bit worried :sweat:

[liliceprincess]

Hey everyone >.< I'm so sorry that I had to miss the theme week..sigh.I really wanted to do it, but I was busy this time and i didn't even think that I would be on JCNET.

I have missed over 5 pages of backlogs and i will try my best to catch up, so sorry if i cant answer all of your replies to me.

teardrop:: yea i have to agree..lol that the music in pantech that there is a lil bad pronunciation in some parsts but then again he is korean! it must be hard for him to have to sing in a totally different language and get everything well pronounced. Therefore i think its good enough, i rarely can even get my korean friends to learn a lil mandarin before i crack up at the korean accent in the words. mm i have listened to the english song, i think the english is ok, but i would say his chinese is a lot better than his english. i havent heard hread his japanese songs yet, i have DLed them but at the same time, its hard to understand japanese..i know a lil ..but wow that is a lot to udnerstand but i know his accent for japanese was better than mandarin. o what ethnicity are you? what is your favorite song out of the ones that you have mentioned to me?

jessica:: oo i have listened to the songs but not as much times that i have listened to pantech, but i like it ^^ its hard to understand since i am chinese but i think from me experience of learning japanese he did a swell job =) yea i saw the video it was like wow.... yea same i have so many dramas on youtube i have not seen and was always waiting too..but computer with three ppl's connection its hard in this house especially from a bro that DLs so much = = ooo ok..thanks for telling me that i dont have to quote..yea i have to say all of you write a ton and it atkes forever to read! lol but i lvoe it because it makes the conversation be able to go on forever with each other and not missing anyone truly in the thread.

did you guys see the new concept for Pepsi? i'm sure most of you did already =P Pepsi is going to give Bi a sexy image and his clothes will be less than what Jolin will wear. if i only read about that tidbit without seeing the outfit Jerry wore, i'd be very excited about it...but now i'm a bit worried

wahhhhh! lol i havent heard of anything for his new concept of pepsi other than he was making it with jolin..so lucky = = But omigosh..i wonder how it will look i mean the outfit for him. ahah yea jerry already wore something taht was quite interesting.ahah i cannot wait either for what rain will be wearing..why are you worried though?

gracecherry:: oo wow! i remember the flamingo had a nice pool in the back..lol it had a ton of slides there before..aww you are lucky to have the ability to travel..T_T unfortunately i dont have that time and money to do it form taht fact that its 5 of us in the family and my parents dont realyl like traveling or at least the guys in the house..lol np for the news i am glad to be able to report news for you all. hmm about the link i shall check again..thats strange yea i understand that bi's change might be differetn from his older songs and albums..after listening to his old and his new there are definitely changes..but changes are not always bad yea?

rachelle03:: wow! weddings and mroe weddings!?! =O you are so lucky..i have never gone to a wedding before except for one..when i wasl ike 5 years old..i dont remember at all. And aww that picture you had uploaded of rain, aww its soo adorable..at first i giggled and then it got soo cute!
panda_shine:: yea thats true ^^ aww but i hope you get to meet him..i know i do..always in my dreams..lol

minty_angel: :wave: i dont think i have seen you here before..and ihave been gone for so long..ahha a week and i miss so much..nice to meet you and i hope you love it here as i do..since im new in this thread too ^^ btw your skin for the media player is really nice ^^ thanks for sharing it with us.

Irina:: hey girl! i miss ya so much..aww i hope you feel better >< and we all miss you too in DKers thread too! glad you can stop by in here ^^

sorry if i missed anyone..but wow..read all 5 pages and got this done and its long..ahah but its coolio!

[jbalibean]

Jess ~ yeah she helps teach the artists English. It's kind of an unofficial job, i have no idea how she got it:wacko:
can she get inside scoop on Bi by any chance?!
:lolabove: No, it's very unlikely, she isn't that tight with them (I was actually wondering the same thing when I heard that:D ) If I find something out, I'll let you know^^
The Pantech mv is great, it's so touching! He acts compassionate and sensitive~ I found it to be beautiful. I wish I could dance with him:angel:
I was hoping u would see the banner:whistle: ~ this is the manly side of LJK that I was talking about:bleh:
lilice~ I find sometimes when he sings Chinese for it to be a bit muddled and difficult to understand (I'm glad there's subs, but I don't wanna read b/c then I miss his adorable expressions:angel: )
Your avator is soooooo cute~ is that dog yours?

[ker_ai_teresa]

Jenna--> ahhhhhh, i see, i see.....no wonder she's.......*ahem* up herself. :whistle:
so what's her name? when I visit the place I'll tell her exactly what I think about her. http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/6303/muahaha3wt.gif

I kid. ^^

I've only just watched the pantech MV too, after it's been sitting on my desktop for.........I dunno, since it was released. ><;;
it was nice. I didn't like the girl though.............she just didn't look right. and do people actually go blind from a camera's flash???

[gracecherry]

jenna > oh, you have a friend working for jype? as some sorta english tutor? wow...so , it seems she does have quite some chances of knowing them.hmm, very interesting job i would say.^_^ and, ah...your banner ...yes, i think Jun Ki looks greaaat there.i like it when he has photos with his eyes, sorta half lifted up, u noe wat i mean? its just. wow.

jess unnie > ya ya, i m really into this guy playing the piano thing.haha.esp for ji hunnie!ahh, yes yes, by reading that fan encounter,i could alredy imagine how in a playful mode he is, what i m wondering is, when that gurl describe him talking, and his voice, this is the 2nd time aredy, remember the gurl who saw him at jype, where he arrived in his "bike" and the way he talked to his hyungs. there must be something realy special with his voice,if not why is everyone talking bout it, i wonder if its really the same as we hear him speaking on clips, coz, unoe wat, some ppl's recorded voice isnt really like their own,like mine, i can hardly recognize my own voice in the camcorder or telephone! hahaa, its totally unlike my voice.>_< oh gosh, i realllllly hope that for his 4th album, there could be this simple touching ballad,where he could like, perform the piano intro during his performances. dont u think tat wud be great? ^_^

liliice > ahh.actually, its quite difficult for me to afford travelling too. despite the many many problems i live with. but that time when i went to the states, i gues, the situation then was just, allowable, hehe. ahh, yes...i know bi has to have changes from time to time, i just hope like jess unnie,that i can adapt to those changes,ahahaa.

[Rain[Bi]]

Hey everyone I just wanted to come talk here about Rain because he has great music and I would like to talk to people with the same taste as me. I hope I can stay and chat about Rain!

[jbalibean]

Tess ~ I didn't think she was that good of an actress, at first she seemed blind, but then she would bust out with those dance moves and it seemed like she could see again:crazy: You can't go blind from a camera's flash. I thought the camera fell on her head, and the broken glass somehow damaged her corneas:?

Grace~ well, people hype up his 'girlyness' so much, I thought I would show off his masculine side:brows: yeah~ it's his seductive look, he was a model after all:rolleyes: (btw, I'm wearing your earrings right now :hugz:)

Rain[Bi] ~ :welcome: Please come back often and chat with us!

[jessica]

Wendy: hehe, we try to get the thread moving with new infos and discussions. that's how we learn more about him and each other everyday ^^ so your favorite non Korean song so far is Shou Ji (the song for the Pantech MV)? he might improve a bit in his Japanese once he goes there to promote his album. the new concept for Pepsi is the carnival theme. Jay is the magician (very fitting) and Jerry is the..acrobat? i don't know what Bi's character would be, but his outfit might look too extravagant because of the theme ><;

jenna bean: omo! :shock: that's any fangirl's dream job!!! it's not the same girl that went to his NY concert and was interviewed right? hahah, but Sun Li (the girl in the Pantech MV) did more than dance with him :oops: with the supervision of oori Bi, how can't she become a good dancer =P i'd pretend not to know how to dance even if i do if he ever gets that close to me and guide me through :angel:
rach found that encyclopedia site a while ago. i'm glad that it's very updated with his news :-)

tes: she didn't go blind by just the flash of the light. the camera dropped and broke, and the shards went into her eyes causing her to go blind. i don't think any of us like the Sun Li/Bi pairing in that MV. now you have Free Way to watch next :bleh:

grace: hmm..his voice might sound the same, but listening to it up close would give you a different feeling =P it should be more intimate, no? :brows: i do want him to sing a ballad, like he did for his first 2 albums. i love all of them, esp. ak soo. it'll be great if he'll play the piano but it's not really his image. it could happen because he said he's going to show us something different for his 4th album. he wants to show us a neutral side of him, so i hope that means more wifebeaters (casual clothes) and caps :drool:

Rain[Bi]: hi :wave: do drop by often and mingle with us. are you a new fan? why don't you tell us a little about yourself and how you became his fan? :happy:

[rachelle03]

jess: The Jap album alone is expensive too! >.< Perhaps the J-albums here are oversea version, so the price is pretty the same as Chinese albums. Yup, *agreed* LJK crying scenes definitely makes him more manly.
Oh! I just watched se7en's I Know MV. Nice...

jess/grace: I'm so into My Girl now!!! The X-files Leon 007... lol. But the part where YooRin falls from the tree and landed with Gong Chan catching her, :sweat: the way the director films it is so fake. I have yet to see that part about the bath house though. :? When I saw Yoo Rin crying at the dock looking for her dad, I was thinking where is Gong Chan!!! :D Finally he did came, afterall.

any comment about how cautious he is with his money and food always makes me laugh
Exactly! exactly! Esp the part where he remembered to take back his biscuits. :D

[gracecherry]

jess unnie > yea, i reallly hope there cud be a simple sweet ballad wic he cud play the piano intro to during concerts, though it isnt his image, but playing the piano is something that wud never go wrong, i m sure we all DO love seeing him play the piano,ahah.there u go, intimate is the word! i m sure, his voice is the deep and husky type. ^_^

rain bi > hi hi, WELCOME dear! oh coz, sure, u cud drop by anytime to share or discuss with us anything bout bi, like jess said,maybe u cud start by telling us,how u got to know bi and why u like his style and music...etc etc. hehe.

rachelle unnie > oh yes, i forgot bout how bi is careful with his food and money, he is just so down to earth,that boy! ahhhh, there u are, i noe u wud like MG, its a drama difficult to dislike,ehhe, * ommmo, the part of her climbing up the xmas tree n plucking the star was one of my fav parts tooo, yea though the way they filmed her falling is like....dramatic.kaka. u will see the bathhouse scene sooon,and u will laugh hard at it. hmmm....the part where YR was crying looking for her dad at the harbour, was so touching and when GC arrive, i m glad he hug her...aww. its gona get even better....and its gona be even more sad for JW sshi.>_<*

[jbalibean]

Jess ~ yeah it's the same girl. Actually I talked to her last night, and asked her how she got the job well when i went to bi's concert i met the chief operations officer of bi's record label
gave him my number and later he thanked me for being a great fan and traveling so far and if i wasever in korea i could call him..so i did.. while we were talking he askd me my plans here and i told him that i wanted to be a private tutor
then he said OHHH .. we are opening a branch in america and we need to traini some of our artists in english so he wanted to knw if i was interested.i went and had my interview and they chose me

mianhae, I'm really off topic:shy:

Oops, I guess that's what happens when you MIA for awhile:oops:

Rach ~ I really liked that mv :sweat: After watching that, I realized he's no longer the cute Wookie from just a couple years ago:cry:

[jessica]

for those who want to post msgs and access Joyplace, here's a guide:



The English Guide to Joyplace:

some options are still under construction. i made an instruction on how to post on Bi's hompy from Joyplace here (http://img508.imageshack.us/img508/8509/bihomepyinstruction6jm.jpg) and the site --> http://joyplace.jype.com/rain
you have to disable your pop-up blocker for this site his page to pop up, then follow the instructions. you don't need to be a member to post in the Visitor's section ^^

rach: i recommended a list of Se7en's songs that you should listen to on his thread. hope you can find it ^^ his I Know MV showed how much he has grown into a man :cry:
lol. are you getting addicted to My Girl? :shifty: hm, that scene in the bath house might come later. i'm re-watching this now too, but only up to ep 3. i'll continue with my marathon tonight :excited:

grace: he rarely sings a song without moving his body. even during ak soo, he'd use props. but if there is a song written for him that has a piano solo, i'd love for him to play it ^^

jenna bean: waah! she's so lucky! >< JYPE is opening a branch in America too?!!! i guess it's necessary if he plans to promote artists here. i can see the competition between JYPE and YG already :sweat:
yes, wookie is growing up so fast :cry:

[rachelle03]

jenna: Oh my, the dream job. Will she be teaching Rain? Your friend is indeed lucky.

jenna/jess: I remembered watching se7en now and then but didnt noticed that much about him until I saw the super nice dancing chereography of I Know on GMA. :glug: Now the song is stuck in my mind. :D I like his style now. Very Na Peum Nam Ja kinda look, the hair. :shifty: Jess, I saw your receommended list, but MU link is giving me a hard time. They had the limited downloads for the country now. :rasp: Anyway thanks for recommending! ^^ I saw his Passion MV too. Why is he always getting ditched by girls. :sweat: And that 70s dancing in All Night. :D

grace: he rarely sings a song without moving his body. even during ak soo, he'd use props. but if there is a song written for him that has a piano solo, i'd love for him to play it ^^

:D He will never sit/stand still. Remember that clip of him listening to It's Raining on some radio show? He's practically 'dancing' and going through the dance routine while sitting. Even for 'Nan', for such a slow R&B song, he can fit in so much dancing in it. :sweat: I wanna see if he can perform Lack of Space standing still.

Actor Jeong Ji Hun is going to Venice! :excited:
There's some mistakes here, he doesn not play the role of Cyborg.
Rain "I'm a Cyborg but it's OK" participates in Venice International Film Festival
28 Jun 06, Apple Daily, Taiwan

Ch to Eng: Rayndrop

Rain's debut movie "I'm a Cyborg but that's OK" is already 70% completed, and has confirmed participation in the Venice Movie Festival which will be held in August. When he heard the news, he was both nervous and excited. He said happily, "Although I am confident about my acting, the very thought of going through strict critique by international movie critics makes me so nervous but palms are all sweaty! I hope my performance will receive recognition."

Acting as a Cyborg in the new movie
"Cyborg" is a romantic comedy directed by famous Korean director, Park Chan Wook. He won the Grand Prix at the 2004 Cannes Film Festival for the film "Oldboy", and his "Sympathy for Lady Vengence" was short-listed as a candidate for the Venice Film Festival Competition, pushing Lee Young Aae into the realms of international movie. Rain plays the part of a cyborg who can steal people's souls in the movie "Cyborg", and has a dreamy relationship with co-actress Im Soo Jung. The movie is due to screen in Korea this December.

[Rain[Bi]]

jessica: Hello, you can call me Jerry and my favorite song of Rain's is Pantech. What you favorite song? I am sorta a new fan I just became a fan about a month or so ago. I watched a couple of eps of 'Full house' and got into it and started to listening to his music and watching his series.

jbalibean: Hello, I will stay and chat when I have time and all ^^. Do you know if Rain is coming to Canada anytime soon. It would be cool to see his him sing live.

gracecherry: I really like his music and his series and sorta his style I guess. What do you like about his :wink2:?

[panda_shine]

So many pages! :sweat: I skipped a few posts so please forgive me.. :happy:

About the SK vs. Switz game.. I watched it too and like everyone else, I was pretty "blah" about it too.. it took me awhile to get over it lol. Yeah, I heard the FIFA site had to block visitors from Korea.

oo.. so Bi can play the piano?? Did he only play in Sangdoo??

Jessica: Thanks for the Youtube clip (Assembly Award). What was the award for? It was quite funny when he started laughing. I wonder what was so funny? And Ms.Orange..? Is that just a nickname lol? The Road for Rain stories are so funny. I like the "big eyes->closed eyes->big eyes" part haha. :D I wonder if there'll be behind the scenes clip for this? Thanks for the instructions of Joyplace. When you first posted the link and I saw that everything was in Korean.. and I didn't know what to do lol. :oops: I will definitely read over the instructions soon.

teardrop: Oh.. I didn't mean Bi's teeth as a bad thing.. I just thought it was cute lol. Yeah, sometimes Oppa doesn't act/sound like he's 24/25 but I think that's what makes him soo cute and..youthful lol.

Rach: Thanks for the fan story! So the fan didn't get to talked to Bi?? In the part where she wrote they were both focusing on their screen, laughing.. I thought she was chatting with him via the chatroom or something lol. oo... you are starting to like Se7en now?? :excited:

Jenna: I like the Pantech MV too. Before when I didn't really like the female lead but she actually looked good in the MV.. After watching the MV, I started liking the song hehe.. Yeah! I love it when he wears white hehe. Wow, your friend is quite lucky to have met the chief operator.. and then get connections!

Pepsi is going to give Bi a sexy image and his clothes will be less than what Jolin will wear.
ooo.. *excited* I am curious what kind of image it will be. When will this be revealed??

Hi Grace!^^ :wave:

Welcome to the Bi thread, Jerry! Are you a guy? (Just to make sure lol) I think you are the first guys we have in the thread?? I see that you are from Canada too.. cool!! Me too.. but I don't he'll be coming to Canada anytime soon.. :oops:

[gracecherry]

[jessica]

rach: you like that hairstyle? :oops: it reminds me of a mullet x_x i prefer the puffy hair he had in the past. lol. you are right. he does usually gets ditched by the girl >< they should think of a better storyline for his MVs soon :D oh, you should also watch his Come Back to Me part 2 MV! if you've seen the first one, you'll love the 2nd one even more ^^
i remember that clip you mentioned when he couldn't sit still! he was grooving to his own song :laughing: such a cutie pie. i'm impressed on how him and his dancers can fit so much choreography in Nan. let's see what surprise he has for us for his next concert :hmm:
hope he learns more english so he can interact better with the press in Venice ^^; he's going to get more exposure to foreigners because of his film! :excited:

Jerry: i'm wondering if you're a male or female also =P you're a fan of Se7en too?
my list of favorite songs is quite long. i love all the songs he released since his 2nd album. there are a few songs from his first that didn't really grow on me and those are usually the fast tempo ones ^^;
are you done with Full House yet? he has 2 other dramas that you must watch if you like his acting ^^ did you listen to all his albums?

karen: as far as i can remember, he only played the piano during Sangdoo. the Assembly Award is a Daesang award given to him by the Congress of...i don't know what ^^; yes, Ms. Orange is the nickname the fans gave her because that was the color she wore during his 1st Rainy Day concert when they did that flirtatious dance for I Still Love You (2nd album, track 3). those stories from Road for Rain are the behind scenes to the photoshoots he did in Cuba :brows:
as for the Pepsi image, i read that the CF he shot with Louis, Edison and Jolin will air sometime after the World Cup so it should be soon!

grace: you should watch something light hearted and uplifting now :console: hope i can catch you and Ira on msn today or tomorrow :hugz:

some lucky fans saw him on his bday outside of JYPE
Story from : Thanya_zonya @ Bi’s kingdom Thailand
Narration by : seery @ Bi’s kingdom
Translate to Eng : blossomblue @ Bi’s kingdom/soompi

4 Thai fans go to JYPE on his birthday and wandering around JYPE for a while and then they met Korean cloud and HK cloud. After that Bi’s manager walking from the office and they greet the manager. He said that Bi go the the cyber shop and will be back soon, just wait for them, anyway they r not allowed to take any Bi’s picture. Within an hour, a bunch of ppl walking from the cyber shop and the one who has the loudest voice is , of course , Bi. They chit-chat all da way and he laugh out loud wahahahhahaha. All cloud didn’t know how to response so they stand still and watch them silently, didn’t dare to interrupt the good moment. He wore the black beanie, black T-shirt, jeans and the slipper.

After a while, (not sure they greet Bi first or Bi notice that there’s a bunch of girl watch him) he look at the gals and give a sign “com-on gals” (very cute, gonna faint ^^)

All gals take this opportunity to run towards him and got an autograph, while he sign , he still chit-chat non-stop (^^) and they can shook his hand, his hand is so soft and he smells good. (arghhh) He waves to all before getting in the car.

When he got in the car, all gals shout “Happy Birthday Jung Ji Hoon” , he peek out from the window and smile. They also shout “cloud Thailand Cloud HK Cloud Korea luv u”.


and updates on his plan after Cyborg
Bi will finish "cyborg" filming on July 8th. Then go to US on 15th. During the time in US,
Bi and JYP will discuss about the new album and break into US issue. Someone said,
Bi will have collaboration with a famous TOP STAR, but can't disclose who is the TOP STAR
at this moment. Bi will stay in US for 10 days, then come back to Korea at the end of July.

from baidu by wwrain / summary translation by: jinlees@soompi

i'm guessing that he'll be in LA. wonder if he'll bump into Se7en there :sweat: can't wait to find out who he'll collaborate with! :excited:

[Rain[Bi]]

jessica: Yes, I am a guy =.= (I should bold this because so may people are asking now). I don't like his looks or anything I just like his acting and music. Yeah, I also like Se7en only like 3 songs though 'Come back to me' is one of my most time favorite ones. I like Rain's slow tempos seems more like him ._. Not done with FH yet, but its getting really good. I think I have 5 more eps until the ending ><. What are the two other dramas called? I only have his first album, the rest I just watch on YouTube. Which was your favorite drama of Rain's?

panda_shine: Yes, I am a guy ^^` this feels really weird having all the people in here ask if i am a guy just to make sure. I find it very interesting and amusing but i understand how it is to have a guy all of a sudden come into a more or less a girl's thread. LOL Yes i am from canada. what part of canada are you in?

grace: ahah yes i am a guy. yea i see from all the shock from all of you when i came in here with the same query. ahah yea full house i have to say he was a good actor. I mean i am not gay, so i dont really check him out, but from his music and acting he is very good. So have you ever met Rain, or went to his concert before?

[jbalibean]

Jerry ~ Actually, I was thinking that you were a guy (if that means anything:D ) but it seemed rather improbable after our reputation for spazzing and also the fact that I have heard girls use 'jerry' as a nickname. No offense la. the links to his other albums are in his download thread~ His other two dramas are 'Sangdoo, let's go to school' and 'A love to kill'~ No,he's not coming to Canada anytime soon, he just finished with his world tour and his filming and recording his next album now.

Rach ~ I'm not sure, right now she's just teaching one of JYP's proteges. I love Se7en's dancing! Have you seen the 'Chiri Boshi' mv?

[teardrop]

before i start just wanna say a BIG :welcome: to Rain[Bi] hi hi :wave: you've come to the right place to spaz bout bi oppa!! lol glad you like his music, did u first like him as an artist or as an actor? i think most ppl here took notice when he appeared in full house, but as for me i like him wen i saw him on mtv asia aid for like 5 secs lol so it was music 1st for me. have you seen any of his dramas??? ah hope you stop by here frequently and feel free to talk about bi and other gasoos :happy: every1 is here and friendly so make your self at home! :-)

jess unnie:Original Post by Jessica to gracei think it's best to pull a blank face when we see him so he'd be more curious as to why we don't acknowledge him ^^^ that's soooo true, remember the MBC Norewah show?? when BaekGga was telling everyone when he went to the cinema with bi and he brought a mask to hide from every1 but when some1 came up and asked are you rain? he was like YES of course! lol ah it was soo cute when he tried to deny it lol. i just found it amusing to see him mess up and giggle uncontrollably for a good few seconds ^^^yea it's really nice to see him laughing and smiling :-)

jenna: awww no problems any time :happy: were u able to listen it ok? Are you talking the 1st song off of Shinhwa's 6th album "highway (ride with me)" ^^^ highway? i thought that the 1st song was "thanks!" lol but yea i that's the 1 i'm tlking about, it's v. funky! lol don't think i've heard a song like that anywhere else. it's like party/circus/hip pop kekekeke yea i like that song as well :happy: but i would have to say i'm liking "your man" a lot.

minty_angel: cutting them took 4 hrs wow!*applause* :thumbsup: that's all i can say about that lol your skins for wmp are amazing! how did u create those skins?? it must've taken long right?

karen: Oh.. I didn't mean Bi's teeth as a bad thing.. I just thought it was cute ^^ o i'm sorry! i didn't mean to imply that his teeth were bad :shy: :sweat:

grace: oh my friend, he isn’t born or raise elsewhere, but in korea itself ^^^ oic well guess there are some ppl like that.... actually i would say i was 1 as well. although i was born in the uk i really have no interest in western music lol it's all bout korean and chinese lol. yea i think i would need lots of milk/yogurt to neutralize everything. well i guess on the good side my bones will be nice and strong hehehe

liliice:awww i love ur avie!!! it's soooo cute la!!!!:happy: yea there is a lil bad pronunciation in some parts but then again he is korean! ^^^ absolutely!!! full marks for trying! it must be hard learn 3 languages all at once. you haven't listened to any of his japanese songs!?!?!? you have and MUST listen to sad tango!!! OM Gwad!!!!!! esp the vid!! u'll just :drool: :shock: lol hmm.... i like all songs of his, but i do agree that his pantech song is a little bit better than too much prob bc of the beat of the song. but i would have to say my all i think u can prob guess it would be sad tango his 1st japanese song. everything about it is sooo hot!, from the vocals to the beat to the dance to just EVERYTHING!!! lol my ethnicity is that i'm half vietnamese and half chinese, i'm guess your chinese right??? sorry if i missed anyone..but wow..read all 5 pages and got this done and its long..ahah but its coolio!^^^ lol don't worry you'll get used to it have you seen MY post?!?!? lol aigOO it'll prob take up half of the page hehehe :blush:

[jbalibean]

Yeah, I was able to listen to it~ I didn't really like his song with Ai, I found it a bit boring :oops: Are you having trouble finding the links to Shinhwa's albums? Every once in a while, when I'm motivated, I search their download thread for hours but I still have never been able to find them :cry:

Yeah, highway is great! :thumbsup: Who is your favorite singer/member?

gracecherry aww i know you can adapt to the changes of him. I dont think he has truly changed too much. Has he? I mean i find it like he has changed in some ways hmm lol i have no clue.

jessica ahahha yea i really wonder too especially about the pepsi commerical but i think it will be a nice commercial with so many of them grouping up and all.ooo hmm is he promoting in japan anytime soon? and yea tahts soo true ahah its better to adapt to the language when you are living there.what would you say is your favorite song out of all that he has done?

panda_shine aww i know what you mean ahah too many backlogs. oo btw yea >< i saw the SK vs.Switz game it was sooo sad T_T. FOr me, yea i have only seen him in sangdoo playing the piano. I am not sure he is really does. hmmm

teardrop ahaha thanks for your comment about my avie ^^ ahah yea i am full chinese/taiwanese. awww ill try to watch sad tango as soon as possible >< ahahah you are so silly i think most of the people here do take up almost half the page ahah to write or even just to post news. I dunno after hearing so many ppl wanting me to hear the sad tango song. I was wondering for you, is his japanese song better than his korean songs? or was it jsut this one song that truly had made it a change.

:welcome: Rain ahahah i think this is also my first to see a guy in here. But nice to meet you! hope you like it in here.

well thats all i can post in here..ahah so backlogged once again ><
well here is some updated news
Rain’s Focus is upon Singing in the Second Semester

Translated by prlttr of jeongjihun.com
6/22, 2006

Rain, both singer and actor, is going to be concentrated on musical activities the coming half of the year.

Except for attending short-term itinerary foreign events from late March till present, Rain has stayed mostly at Busan and been absorbed in the shooting of his first debut film I’m A Cyborg, But It’s Okay, the movie by the director Park Chan-wook.


In this way, having focused on acting rather than musical activities last first half of year, Rain plans on activities as a singer back again throughout the Asia, if the shooting of the film I’m A Cyborg, But It’s Okay should be finished late this month.

First, Rain releases his first regular album in Japan coming August. Having got the ninth place on the Oricon Daily Single Chart in Japan through his second single song “Free Way” which was shown last June 7th, he is going to move on a steady involvement over Japan with a brisk promotion on the locale after the release of his first regular album.

His company JYP Entertainment said, “The work of the first regular album within Japan is finished, and Rain will have longer activities in Japan than when he released last two single albums.”

Also, after the 4th regular album release in Korea coming October, he is to open a large-scale showcase in Seoul for the sake of the fans over the whole Asia.

And then Rain enters into the Asia tour concerts from late this year after domestic activities of the 4th regular album whose producer Park Jin-young will be.

Until April next year, Rain will have a total of 34 concerts in 11 Asian countries such as Korea, Japan, China, Thailand, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Vietnam, Philippine, Malaysia and Indonesia to set up a steady position as a representative Korean singer.

just a quick poast as i'm feeling kinda sleepy lol jenna so glad that u were able to listen to it, i know what u mean about the ai song. it's ok but i think i like it more as it's in eng :blush: lol omo i feel ur pain with trying to find albums!! but i found a page in so solid click here for shinhwa's albums and any other album ur trying to look for albums (http://solid07.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=10&hl=). my fav member would have to be Shin Hye Sung he's face is really pretty kinda reminds me of some1 *coughljkcough* lol but i admire him more so on his singing. his voice is really nice and soft but also at the same time can be really powerful! anyways i'll post some more when i'm not half asleep.

[panda_shine]

she might be tutoring bi on some of the times too,tats gona be a difficult job eh, concentrate on teaching bi...^_^
Yeah, whoever gets to teach Bi is lucky but.. difficult. :D I'll probably end up staring at him.. :shifty:

Jessica: I must watch Sangdoo then (I still haven't watched it :oops: ). Do you remember which episode he plays the piano in? because I have like 2/3 of the drama on my computer lol. I can't wait until who he collaborates with too.

he look at the gals and give a sign “com-on gals” (very cute, gonna faint ^^)
This sounds soo cute!! hehe..
I think Bi is a chatty person when he's around people he's very close to.. ^^

Jerry: LOL. Yeah, I was thinking Jerry should be a guys name but like Jenna said.. some girls has guys name too. I am from Western Canada. What about you? Did you know that Full House is playing on the TalentVision? (The Mandarin channel) so you can catch that on TV too :happy:

Jenna: Aw.. you don't like the song with AI? I quite like it.. but I don't know.. maybe because I am an AI fan too lol. But I really like the beat though.

liliceprincess: I will try to watch the part where he plays the piano in Sangdoo. I am asking Jessica which episode it is. :happy: Do you know?

teardrop: I like the song collab with AI too! :excited:

[may_510]

:shy: Just wondering if you girls (and guy :tongue: ) have seen this poster??

may > hi hi, i cant see the picture, could u pls put the direct link? thx.

karen > oh yes, it would be a tough job to focus on teaching a student like HIM. indeed. but, it wud be interesting.... i forgot which epi did he performed just once in sangdoo alredy, hehe, but u shud just watch rite from epi 1, go slow if u are busy, coz, that way u would get to feel the entire story...... hehe, and the cutest thing isnt when he performed piano in the drama, but during the making of it, coz he went outta tune and he was like ...frightened by his own voice, can u imagine his expression with the widen eyes? kaka.

liliceprincess > oh yes, u should listen to sad tango as soon, and watch the mv as well.ehhe,double the 'sad tango' addiction effect.so u are taiwanese ?i see....interesting.hehe.

jerry > oh of coz i dont think u r gay, haha. lol....i understand, i mean, its normal if u could acknowledge the talent and ability of rain as a singer ,dancer and actor. hehe. well,i have never seen him in person before, the only ppl who did here is Jess Unnie, at his NYC MSG RD concert. and according to her, it was exhilarating, i can understand, to see him dancing , with those moves, those energy and tempo ,rite infront of u.hmm...yea.Jenna also seen Rain before.hehe.so u like his acting in full house, u should really see Sangdoo and A love to kill as well, he played all these 3 roles, which were so remarkably different, it just shows he can act.heeh.

jess unnie > ahh, i didnt noe that was how the nickname orange came from... i was wondering too ....tats cute. and ahh,i gues, i would find a way to....comfort myself.its just great to see ji hunnie so happy these days, i feel good for him, and this guy ...he is really...quite bubbly sometimes.haha, now i feel.kaka.

teardrop > ahhaah....i find bi's personality really amusing too,i remember the norewah show, he is the type of guy tat can be a great chingoo, to a great oppa and a great namja chingoo too.....

[jessica]

Jerry: it's just that we never had a guy stop by before that i can remember and claim to be his fan so we're just a little curious :tongue: i'm very happy that you're the first to do so :happy: his other 2 dramas are Sangdoo, Let's Go to School from 2003 and A Love to Kill from 2005. i'd suggest that you watch Sangdoo first. his acting in that drama impressed me the most and touched me deeply, until i watched A Love to Kill and saw how much he improved. it was a challenging role for him, but he pulled it off. if the story was more polished, that can easily top my all time favorite melodrama >< it's hard to choose a favorite among these 3 because each is special to me ^^ you should listen to his other 2 albums also!
i read your intro and someone recommended you to join this site because of Jay and Rain's news? i'm very surprised aboout that latter part :D is your friend also a member here?

teardrop: lol..now that you mentioned it, i remember that clip! he's such a thick-skinned boy sometimes, keke <3
your favorite member is Shin Hye Sung too?!! :excited: i like him before Jun Ki so it was easier for me to accept pretty looking Korean men since then :whistle:

jenna bean: you don't like the beat to Too Much? =( the only complaint i have with that song was that the background music was a bit too loud and kind of drowned out his voice sometimes so it was hard for me to catch the lyrics ><

Wendy: the Pepsi group pic just came out! i left my comment on his pic thread about his image so i'm not going to repeat it here. i'm glad that my 2 favorite artist look the best out of the bunch ^^ he's going to Japan next month to promote his 3rd single and 1st album. i think he's going to stay there for a while. then he'll be back to Korea to promote his 4th album! err...it's hard for me to choose an all time favorite song ^^; the very first song i heard was Ways to Avoid the Sun and that was when i became interested in him. then he performed "was it because i'm famous" a while later and that was when he has stolen my soul :D during that time, he was promoting his 2nd album. i only came across a site were i can stream his 1st album + MVs and his 2nd album MVs. i was hooked to his music then ^^
can't wait to see his comeback performances soon! only a few months away until i'm in bliss again :love:

karen: aigoo, you never watched Sangdoo before? =( it's a MUST! you'll adore his character sooo much! i don't remember which episode it was that he played the piano >< i intend to re-watch it after My Girl so maybe we can spazz together then ^^

may: that was your shortest post here...EVER! :D we miss having you around =( you must return soon, after your dbsk craze subsides...if it ever does :shifty: yes, i've seen that poster. it's one of the image in my banner :tongue:

grace: the image May posted was the poster for his Asia Tour. it's the 3rd image in my banner :happy: (link: http://img240.imageshack.us/my.php?image=398co2zb.jpg) he does have his bubbly side and when we read about it, it just warms your heart even if we don't witness it ourselves ^_^ oh, i love that part where he danced to one of MJ's song in the supermarket in Sangdoo also! he was so silly :D actually, his dancing in Sangdoo were all cute and silly :laughing: :love:

i just found out that you can reply on his hompy besides the Vistor's section, even if you're not a member! you just have to type your name and any password and submit your msg. i left a short one for one of the pics he posted himself!!! :excited: don't know if it'll work for other sections, but it never hurts to try ^^ that's how i found out that i can reply in the pics section :bounce:

[gracecherry]

jess unnie > ommo, now i m all hyped up! malaysia is printed in there! well, i reallllly hope i could make it to his concert, but i m pretty sureeee i cant get the front row seats, despite my condition rite now, i jus hope i wud get to but the lowest price tic, i noe its going to be sooo far from the stage, but, all i just want is to feel him, performing and singing,LIVE. ahh, btw, u stated RD NYC USD325. so tats what u paid for rite? wow, its...reallly. alot, in my currency ^_^....ira and i were waiting for u on msn this afternoon...heeh.and bout the pepsi pic.well, bi sure has NO problems at all baring his upper body, wahahaa. we all noe that...kaka.i was rewatching some JK clips jusnow, aigoo, i like the one where they asked him to do 50 times pumping.kaka, he was like, cant every man do it? *wow* i really like his look! its got this addicting effect,the more u stare at his features.oh my. btw, really....i would like to post msg, without registration, its sad to say i cudnt reg till now ,wif my connection, the jype site, takes sooo long to load,and finally till when i can fill in my details ,the page gets stuckkkk...ahhh.i'll try leaving a msg,with the screen cap u made for me....so bi actually posts his pics there?

[jessica]

grace: you need to start saving up now! :sweat: i don't know how much the VIP/front row tickets are going to cost, but i think it'll be around US$150 >< you can't afford the middle price tickets? ^^; depending on how big the arena is and how far the stage is from the front row seats, you could be verrrrrry far back if you were the get the lowest priced tickets =(
the RD tickets add up to US$300 and then there were fees and surcharges for ordering from Ticketmaster and receiving the email of the tickets instead of picking it up there, so i just estimated the price and round down because i don't remember exactly how much it was ^^; but it should be around $325 - $330. i couldn't believe i spent so much for my first concert either :sweat: aish, i missed you guys on msn =(

he was the only one without a shirt on unless you count that sleeve thingy + strap as part of a top :rolleyes: i was trying to figure out that silver painted design on his chest, but the pic was too blurry ><
you are right about Jun Ki. you just get enamored by his beauty as you see more of his clips, hehe.

i read the msg you left on my chatbox. so you have problems viewing his homepy? after you click on that link i posted, a pop-up will appear and that is his site. you have to disable or allow pop-up for Joyplace first if the pop-up doesn't come up, or you can click on the link to his homepy on JYPE's Joyplace. once the pop-up window appears, you can close JYPE's Joyplace site because you won't need that. i'm not a member of JYPE yet :oops: once Bi's homepy loads, you can navigate his site using the tabs on the left and the best thing is that all of them are in english ^^ it takes a while for the page to load for me too, so it's going to take a looong time for you. here's another cap on how to post msgs in the Photo section...if it ever loads properly for you :sweat: i think i figured out how to start a post there too :wacko: i'll try it out one day and if it works, i'll post up a guide if anyone's interested :happy:

Save our incomes

KOREAN stars Jang Dong Gun and Rain led another star-studded protest against the screen quota cut in Seoul last Saturday evening .

The day marked the beginning of a new government ruling which reduces the annual quota of local movies from 146 days to 73 days.

This would allow more Hollywood films to enter the already competitive Korean market at the expense of the local artistes and filmmakers.

The celebrity protestors gathered at around 5pm, then walked to the historical Gwanghwamun gate.

Interestingly, both Dong Gun and Rain earned over 3 billion won ($4.8 million) last year, reported Sports Korea newspaper last week.

Fellow actors Kwon Sang Woo and Lee Young Ae also crossed the 3 billion won mark. But the top earner is reportedly Bae Yong Joon, who hit the 10 billion won gong.

[minty_angel]

omg about those posters about rain's concert and such. i'm so sad he's not coming to australia. but then again i'm excited too coz i'm going to asia at that time!!!! well, around the end of the year to next year so i'm hoping i get lucky and can see his concert. i would be ecstatic. Anyone know if you can you buy tickets from overseas? It would be so sad if i COULD have bought one but then it was sold out:glug:

jessica: i love that picture of him with the hoody too! i've got it stuck in my diary :D you're welcome about the skins. i'm always really late about finding out stuff so i feel bad for not being able to share info or other things on forums

liliceprincess : nice to meet you too=) i'm glad you like the skins.

teardrop:
the skins didn't take long actually, only about half an hour each max. and that was just coz i couldn't make up my mind which pictures to use :oops: . i just downloaded a winamp skin maker, and then converted it to a wmp skin. haha now every time i turn on my music i see rain:whistle:

[rachelle03]

Hi there Jerry! I know you are a guy now. ^^

In the part where she wrote they were both focusing on their screen, laughing.. I thought she was chatting with him via the chatroom or something lol.
I thought so too! But I guessed she's talking to her friend, coz the boy must be busy with his game. lol.
Yup, I'm liking Se7en's songs now. Need some new songs to keep me working. :D

jess: A mullet? ^^; I've watched both parts of Come Back to Me. Indeed, I prefered the 2nd one. He's such a pitiful dork. :D I'm still going through his 24/7 album. The whole album is very nice, even the interludes esp. Heaven.
Ya! I do hope Ji Hun is successful as an all-rounder artiste. Hopefully his english will be fluent enough to communicate with the Singapore fans when he's here.

After a while, (not sure they greet Bi first or Bi notice that there’s a bunch of girl watch him) he look at the gals and give a sign “com-on gals” (very cute, gonna faint ^^)

OMG. Such a nice guy. He's not that 'cold' afterall.

Jenna: I've yet to check out Chiri Boshi mv. I'll go check it out. :wink2: Is that your favourite?

Karen/Jess: I'm joining the SangDoo watching group! But my vcd set are not with me at the moment. :depresse:

Jess/Grace: I saw the bathroom scene in My Girl! :D "Unnie!" lol...
Gong Chan is such a dork. He doesnt wants Yoo Rin to leave and was pondering bout it yet the minute he saw Yoo Rin, he asked her to leave. Duhz. Gong Chan's auntie and the artist guy are such a hilarous pair. lol.

[jessica]

Jordan: you are always so resourceful with news and pics :hugz: i think that news is not correct. he made a statement a few days ago that he won't be joining in the protest because his movie didn't air yet, so he didn't feel like he should take part in it and be among all those veteran movie actors.

you can also find that news about him not attending in his homepy in the Board section ^^

monique: i think you can order the tickets online. if i remember correctly, some Japanese Clouds ordered his Rainy Day in NY tickets online (from bidders?) and that was how they were able to attend. they paid almost double the price for one ticket x_x;; his tickets will surely sell fast, so you need to take action quickly!
aw, you don't have to feel bad. just join us in the discussion and if you have any questions, feel free to ask :happy:

rach: he might communicate in mandarin too. he did during his Taiwan concert and i heard that he made quite a few mistakes :D if you like se7en's 3rd album so much, you should watch his World Cup perf! i love his street clothes and he wore a NY Yankees cap! the first time i've ever seen him in one :love: i don't really like the outfit he wears during the music program perfs. it makes him look extra skinny :oops:
lol. don't you just love Jeong Woo's expression after YR said that?! he looked like he turned red from embarrassment :D it's so funny that the scriptwriter even made fun of his beauty :laughing:
aigoo..you never watched Sangdoo too? =( did you lend your vcd to someone?

here's a clip that you girls should watch! i've been waiting for it since i read the news that Tony An (from popular boyband in the 90s - H.O.T.) impersonate It's Raining on x-man! :excited: i wasn't able to stream it fully because my net connection is not strong enough >< but the first half of it look very funny --> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEBgkROxQNY

[jbalibean]

teardrop~ chongmal gomawo for the link!!!!*saves* I just dled an album by Kangta (he sounds a lot like Shin Hye Sung)
haha, Jess said the same thing, I can understand why u think that. Have u listened to his solo jib?!?! I bought it, and it was well worth it!! I still listen to it on my way to work (I know almost all the words, and have no idea what I'm saying~ahaha) My fave would have to be Wannie:love: :love: :love:

Grace ~ I see you've switched to a JJH banner as well *high5* I'm curious to see those clips of him in a fashion show (even though he's just walking!)
He really does look good in anything though^^

Karen~ I had never heard of Ai before the Kingman's Brunch clip (I'm waiting impatiently for clubbox to start working again~don't know what to do)

Jess~ I would agree, sometimes (like in the pepsi cf) his voice is overshadowed, but then also he tends to mumble sometimes when he's not singing in Korean:oops:

Jordan71 ~ that's interesting news, I wonder why they change it all of a sudden, especially that drastically?

Rach ~ I don't really have a favorite mv of his, but I love his dancing in it!!! <3 I was disappointed when that song wasn't put on his Japanese jib =.=

Jess ~ thanks for the clip, I liked how at the end he was still waving his hand in front of his mouth b/c his mouth was on fire! keke

[gracecherry]

jess unnie > wow,it was sooo good to have u on msn sessions!! and neways, i sat down n rewatch quite a number of clips, and i gues rewatching those bi clips have an intoxication effect all over. just curious, do u have like, a fav bi perf clip? if i were to chose tat,i wud say i like the beijing showcase perf alot.it was with extra fast tempo,extra energy~~ and the outfit is gOOd.^_^ and ive watched se7en MVs, for crazy,passion...i think he dances really good too, but, bi has an altogether different effect....and then, i saw this old clip of bi playing snooker! ommo, that expression of his?!? he is soo cute when he cant belive the amazing things he DID,and he has this 'glug' look. oh my.i m glad to finally post at his hompy.i wud try to register on jpye when i can. and jus a random thing bout JK, in a clip, someone ask him are u tat feminine in person, he said "no i m not feminine at all" then the person asked "then u are masculine?" he said "nope i m not that masculine either" aigoo...i like how he was answering tat~ ommo, mianhe, this post is soo random.besides,for the pepsi pic with other artistes, i cant see the pic, i cud only see the one u posted,the one with bi alone,so i duno how weird edison is inside.lol.


jenna > haha,yea, i am into the ju ji hoon the fashionista style. hhaha,u noticed most of my JJH pics are side profile? ^_^ so u like to see him doing runway shows too huh? i like it when he does it for suits esp.

monique > oh u dont have to feel bad for not coming up with news or anything bout bi to share with us, me too...depend alot on the very resourceful ppl here.kakaaka.

rachelle unnie >yay, u finally saw tat scene, i like the part where he goes *need to go into the mens room to reassure?* kakakak.

[sweep]

minty_angel, Jordan71:wave:

Karen sooo belated Happy Birthday!:excited:

Jessica Gosh, You sure spent a lot on Rain's concert. But you went on the 2 days, right!?

Job hunting isn't great now. But thanks for the concern.:shy: I have offers but they're mostly home business? I think I need something more public... more people-oriented, something that would get my butt off the house.

Do you still download off the net?

Rachelle, I see your talking about Se7en! I like his recent album too. As in whole package. During his previous albums I didn't appreciate all of his songs but now I really like the third album. Especially "Come back to me 2". Oh, an I like the way he looks now too. More grown up. I admit he looks still kinda dorky sometimes but still cute.:wink2:

I can't believe I'm losing connection to Rain... a couple of months ago I was a Rain know-it-all to my friends. And now I am like :glug: I hope I'm still super interested when he comes next year.:worry:

[jbalibean]

Grace ~ what's snooker? I saw that clip of LJK, his answers were interesting, I think they really add to his mysterious charisma:tongue: I'm gonna watch that clip right after I post this! Does that mean u no longer like Shin Goon?:shifty:

Sweep~ Good luck finding a job! Come back and visit us more if u have the chance :hugz:

[gracecherry]

jenna > ooh*snooker? is like...pool? hehe. that clip is really hillarious, quite an old clip coz he stil has that sangdoo hairstyle. and his skills are pretty goood, if u ever watch it, u wud noe wat i mean.ahah,u actually gona watch that LJK clip i mentioned rite after ur post.hmm.... yes,tat isnt all. i like him in quite a few other clippies too ,the one where he was in the fly daddy interview clip.haha, when the reporter asked him to name all his senior's films, he did it , till the last one he forgot.and then he was like pulled off a trick to that lady, it was so funy too.noooo,of coz it doesnt mean i dislike shinnie! how can i. he is just. so charismatic, in the cool prince kinda way.ahah.

sandy > ommo, oh no...u hav to come back here often and, let us try to bi-ify u again.

[minty_angel]

i was watching the 3 eps of YSMM that rain was in today. ohh he's so cute:D i thought it was really funny that part where he said he used to cheat at school and then he was giving away his techniques - and then after said, but please don't cheat. hahaha
There was also another part where he said he ran away from home in his second year of junior school (not sure what year that would be for me, is that year 8? btw i live in australia). He said that he kept waiting for his mum or dad to page him or call him while he stayed at his friend's house and then his mum knew all along that he was safe and so had made him wonder.

i watched Sangdoo let's go to school again too. oh it's so sad...=( and i have that feeling... you know when you don't want something you're watching to end? like kind of missing it afterwards.

jessica: cool thanks, i hope it's not too too expensive. the actual dates for his concerts aren't available yet are they? i was thinking it would be really cool to be on the same plane as him xD hahaha. doubt that would come true but yesss , its fun dreaming.
hehe thanks for always been in the know

grace: helloo , so we're in the same boat. lol, thanks i feel better now:tongue:

sweep hello . nice ta meet you too. what's your name?

[gracecherry]

monique > *annyong* oh gosh those ysmm clips are funny arent they? i watched those too,and the one that made me laugh till i nearly fall of the chair the one of bi with the peek a boo.the part where, they were making fun of him wearing the low v neck.aigoo.and someone teased him saying that if he bents down he got to use his hands to hold on his shirt first.hahaha. and there so many things that had bi laughing uncontrolled.:D and the part where he said he likes ladies who takes charge, hahah, he was counter attacked by another artist.awww. so u are watching sangdoo, its soo sad .... one of the scene tat impressed me was the scene * of him at the bathtub, he was dressed in white-green striped shirt,and he was soaking wet from the shower, with tears streaming down his face, i can never forget that expression...:cry: and also,the part where, he ran to the church with handcuffs on, tat was jus too sad*

[teardrop]

lilice: i think most of the people here do take up almost half the page ^^^ lol this is v. true. ah i guess there are so many ppl in this small community that you end up writing essays just to reply to some 1, but it's cool we all like to read until our eyes water and bleed lol. most of us reply really late in the night as we normally make this our last stop of the day. wen do u normally post? is his japanese song better than his korean songs? or was it just this one song that truly had made it a change.
^^^ hmmmm...... :hmm: i wouldn't say that his japanese single is better than his korean, (have u hear bad guy and escape from the sun aigOO i would say that thoes are my fav. korean songs of his) but i would say that this japanese single was a really good way for him to kick off his japanese songs. once u hear it u would understand why all of us are like blown away with it. and his japanese pronunciation is really good in this song as my sis-in-law is japanese and she heard it and said that it was as if some1 who spoke fluent japnese was singing it. although i don't know what is pronunciation is like now with free way as i haven't got her opinion on that yet :sweat: but my input is that his pronunciation might not be that good in freeway, or mayb it's because he sings really really softly and i can't really hear the words...... like i understand japanese anyways :blush:.... but u know what i mean? i couldn't b bothered to search the dl thread so i uploaded sad tango mp3 here (http://www.sendspace.com/file/r3gi4t), i've got the vid to it with subs and without. if you don't want to dl it, you can brows you tube but if you wanna dl it just tell me which 1 u want (with/with out subs/ both) and i'll upload it for you :happy: o thnx for the update! :happy:

karean: aigOO u haven't watched sangdoo yet?!?! i cried buckets on the last 2 eppys!!! it's an ok drama, i would say a good debut drama for him but in iskua u can sooo tell how much he has grown and learned as an actor. o yea i remember u said that u liked ai and u uploaded some of her songs here 1 time but i didn't get a chance to dl it. what type of music does she do? rnb? are there any fast tempo songs u wld recommend?

miss may: it's nice to see u here even if it is just to post a pic kekekeke hope your doing well and studies aren't too stressful!! aja aja!!! :nunchuks:

grace:hey hunny it was sooo great to finally hear ur voice! u sound v. mature :happy: yea oppa seems like a very friendly and caring chingoo doesn't he?!?!? but i think u have to wait a while b4 he can become comfy w. you as he's such a shy guy at hert :love: ah i know what snooker clip ur on about yea i saw that wasn't it sooo cute how he just stood there and looked on in shock/amazement ahhh so cute soo cute!! o and snooker and pool are kinda the same but different lol. pool is really simple you basically pot the ball u are (either spots or strips) whereas snooker is a bigger table and much more complicated. it goes like you need to pot a red then a colour then a red then a colour etc till all the reds have gone then you pot the colour balls in order i.e i think yellow is the lowest then green then brown etc. black is the highest hope that helps or has it made u even more confused??? some random comment on ljk but o well no i m not feminine at all" then the person asked "then u are masculine?" he said "nope i m not that masculine either" ^^ have u seen the mv grace? and also the making of? well there's this little girl in there and on the making of clip she asks ljk are u a girl? and he replies yes in a deep voice to confuse her and then she goes but u've got hair (points to his mustache)!! and then he turns away smiling but covering his mouth aigOO it's sooooo cute!! he looked a little embarrassed??? lol

sandy: good luck in your job hunting! i know it may be really demotivating not getting THE job but keep hunting and i'm sure u'll find it! do pop in from time and again in here to catch up on the latest gossip on oppa! :tongue:

[jessica]

jenna bean: you are right about him mumbling. and he would sometimes slur the words too >< i was watching some old clips where he sang in english and for Incomplete, he changed some of the lyrics. i'm not certain if he just forgot some parts or he purposely did it. he sounded great though :tongue: his voice is stronger when he sings live.
i was able to watch that x-man clip yesterday and Tony did a good job impersonating him in a comical way :D was that wasabi he ate? i can't really tell except that it was something green. i wonder why there was a girl in a wedding dress that resembled what SHG wore in FH o_o

grace: we were haivng so much fun on planning to spam his homepy, if only my net connection didn't cut me off :oops: i can't choose only one favorite perf from him. maybe one for each song? =P there are still a lot of clips that i haven't seen yet so i know there must be more good ones. yes, that snooker clip! he was in disbelief when he made that shot and the look on his face was so cute :D
someone posted that group Pepsi pic in Jay's gallery so you can take a look there too ^^
one of my favorite sad scenes from Sangdoo was when he had to cut Bori's hair. that whole scene was so heart wrenching :cry:

sandy: it has been so long since you last dropped by :hugz: home business as in working at home? i wanted a job like that so i don't have to rush to work whenever i oversleep >< it's going to take a while before you find a job that suits you. aja aja!
yes, i went to both nights. my family and friends thought i was crazy for paying so much to watch the same thing twice ^^; i had the thought that it was a once in a lifetime event, so i had to sieze this opportunity. if you start to lose interest, just stop by here and we'll bRAINwash you back into the fan that were before :tongue: i still DL off the net (if my connection is good) because that's where i get my entertainment now =X :shy:

monique: his YSMM shows are my favorites too! he was in 4 or 5 altogether if i remember correctly. we get to learn a little about him and his humorous side. if you watched his earliest appearance to his last one, you'd see how much he has improved in answering those types of questions ^^ like Grace, ep 40 and 41 are my favorite because of those 2 ajushi who kept making fun of him :D
and i have that feeling... you know when you don't want something you're watching to end? like kind of missing it afterwards.
i had that feeling when i was watching FH. i don't remember if i did for Sangdoo because the last couple of episodes were so gloomy ><
his concert ticket dates and prices should be out when it's closer to December :happy: i've read from past fan reports that they were in the same flight as him. a fan flying here for his concert in NY was on the same flight as him, but she didn't know until she lined up to check in. you might be one of those lucky fans too so don't give up hope! ^_^

teardrop: i haven't watched that shinhwa clip! do you still have the link to it? the rest of the group always make fun of hyesung's beauty :D i uploaded se7en's World Cup perf in his DL thread ^^
for the Pepsi group pic, i think all of them were pasted together ^^; i'm curious as to what Bi's character suppose to be. i just found out that the person he'll be working with in the US is Omarion, hehe.
have u seen the mv grace? and also the making of? well there's this little girl in there and on the making of clip she asks ljk are u a girl? and he replies yes in a deep voice to confuse her and then she goes but u've got hair (points to his mustache)!! and then he turns away smiling but covering his mouth aigOO it's sooooo cute!! he looked a little embarrassed??? lol
that's one of my favorite Jun Ki moments! :laughing: that little girl is sooo cute <3
you get popups from solid07? they moved to another server so i don't think it should happen now :worry: i used to get that a lot from z-degrees. that site is no longer running, so i depend all on solid07 for my latest kpop DLs :whistle:

here's the news on his collab with Omarion

jess unnie > i m in a total fangurl mode to spaaz bout oori bi rite now!well, what happened was, ytd i rewatch MANY clips, and jus realize how i missed him!i havent listened to his songs the past mths,coz ive been listening to drama OSTs.^_^and then,i was listening to songs like, ways to avoid the sun on my ipod when i was sleeping ytd nite,and his voice is jus, sooo sexy! i realy like the rap part in tat song,the way he did it.then, i watch the 7 rainmaker's clip and i cant belive i get the same sad effect each n everytime he speaks of his omma.*aww* i saw the road to japan clip and i m once again impressed on his way of working! he looked good in that orange with blue outline singlet ! and his hair looked so fluffy and messed up, and once the rehearsal was completed, he would go to all the other staff and bow and thk them! and he bows like really formally and when he shoke their hands he shoked with both hands, *ahh* thats what i like of bi most!then, i saw the clip for the predestined relationship,tats the one where he plays the guitar rite?! aigoooooOOO, his expression there is totally another crack me up one! and then they hav this couple exchanging facial expressions part....oh my, ohtes wud blink their eye or something,but bi did his famous smile! where his eyes dissapear into a line, and his lips and his eyes became parallel. i totaly find his cuteness irresistable.and ive left msg for his 'thai concert' and 'its me; pic alredy^_^, i called him reporter jeong!

ooh ok, i gues i can see why its hard for u to chose jus one fav perf! ahhaa.i really wana noe how he sounds like in person, of how he is like when he sings and dances rite before u. i noe it must be overwhelming.haah.rewatching some of his RD scenes, made me like a few more songs of his, mostly in the 2nd album.ahh.like track 4 of the 2nd album.

oh btw,i didnt noe mika nakashima sang the song noon eh ggot by park hyo shin, i saw the entire perf of the japan-korea friendship perf and her version is realy nicee too, soo many korean artists were there...seven,boa, bdsg...

speaking of bi's collab, i cant wait for the song he did with tyresse to be out! i realy like the melody of that song, it sounds like typical rnb and his voice is really suitable fot those type of songs!! i wonder why jyp didnt release tat.

teardrop > oooh, i c, actually i dont really noe bout snooker or pool ,but i m quite interested to start learning to play pool, but i dont noe anyone who can really teach me,hmm...it looks fun and cool n less complicated.haah.and YES, u noe wat i mean,by that disbelief look on his face! i so wana pinch his face! well, of coz, when i ever get to see him, it would be hard for me to even respond coz i wud be starstruck.lol. and yes, it was sooo good to hear ur voice dearrrr! like i said, my voice over the phone really doesnt sound like me....ive heard myself on the phone when i did msg recording,and i was like ah?? tats me? hmm. weird.and yes ive seen the grace mv, but i dun hav the making,eheh, and oh my, he must have been embarassed!! but that guy just has this cute bubbly air about him,that, u cant get enuf.ahh.

[rachelle03]

Hmm, Omarion's duet isnt a surprise to us, right? :sweat: He's gonna be busy busy like a bee for the next few months with his singer identity.

jess: His mandarin always reminded of his "Wo Ai Ni Men!" accent. :D I think the pronounciation for mandarin is rather difficult. He reminded me of my malay colleague who tried to speak mandarin. lol. Today I overheard my colleague hummed the Pantech song chorus. :D He said he heard it so often (on my pc) that he already know the tune to it.
I've watched the World cup performance by se7en. Thanks for uploading the clip by the way. He looked very comfortable in it. I guessed when we are too used to the K-stars wearing their promotional clothings, they looked extremely good in just plain tees and jeans. Like oori Bi in wifebeater, right? :brows: I'm into his All Night Long... now. His dancing for it just makes me wanna dance along. So retro-ish. :D I'm looking forward to his MV.
I've watched SangDoo, jess. That show is a must watch for fans of Jeong Ji Hun the actor. I agree, the scene where he had to shave Bori's hair is the saddest.

jenna: I've yet to listen to his japanese songs yet. I think I'll go on to his second album first.

grace: lol. 'reassure'... :D I think the director of My Girl do try to inject some masculine aspect of LJK in the show by getting him in some fighting scenes.

once the rehearsal was completed, he would go to all the other staff and bow and thk them! and he bows like really formally and when he shoke their hands he shoked with both hands, *ahh* thats what i like of bi most!
ME TOO!!! He's so so so polite that I wanna learn from him. By being appreciative of other people. And perhaps being protective of my box of biscuits as well. lol.

sandy: I like Come Back To Me Part 2 too. I find the lady voice accompanying very soothing and nice.

Aigoo, I'm so guilty for listening to 24/7 for the past few days that I forgotten bout Ji Hunnie and his deep voice. :oops:

[minty_angel]

YAY Rain's collaborating with Omarion, though that wasn't a massive shock or anything since omarion was at Rain's mtv thing . and i remember rain saying 'we have a surprise for you' or something like that - was that referring to the concert appearance or this single or something else? i'm happy since i like Omarion =).

grace: hahhaa yeah the peek-a-boo joke made me crack up heaps too. xD. i thought it was so cute how he said that he wanted a woman to say to him , wear this! or eat this instead. it was funny how he kept having to put his head down coz he was laughing so hard. i thought one of the saddest parts of Sangdoo was where he had to go tell his daughter that he was going away.. and he said he'd watch her through a hidden camera and told her not to cry. And also the part where he shaves his daughter's hair:cry:, that made me cry too.

teardrop: hehe yeah ur sis might like a wmp skin=P. lol ok i feel not so bad about it now , everyone's real friendly in here.

jessica: wow bi was in 4 or 5?? i only watched 3 of them. hehe i guess that means tmr i'm gonna be searching for the other eps. yeah, i found that rain was more shy at the beginning, he didn't talk as much whereas later he seems more open. oh, you know the episode where he doesnt talk much in the beginning and then finally he's about to say something and this other woman tries to get rain not to answer it because she said she was about to say it! and another guy comes straight to Rain's defence! btw, who is that guy that is always with rain. i think i heard something like he is part of cloud? i see him a lot, and he's always the one with Rain in YSMM and he interviewed him on 7 Rainmakers unless i've confused 2 diff. guys. they're spose to be really good friends?
lol i think i noe which eps you are talking about , the two guys who pretend that they are crushing on Rain :D ? hahaa i love the bit where one of them goes: but you already have a kid! what does ajushi mean?

Oh yes, full house was definitely like that too. i just loved it so much - i remember i kept talking about it for ages and ages so now a couple more friends have watched it .
I'll make sure to have a good look around my plane! wow if i was really on the same plane as Rain....whoah.

[liliceprincess]

Its like asia is always the place and yet im never there. Wow so youhave been a long fan of his?

teardrop::ahaha oMG you have so much writing for me..ahah which is awesome! =D ahah look below that is all ur reply from me ahah

^^^ lol this is v. true. ah i guess there are so many ppl in this small community that you end up writing essays just to reply to some 1, but it's cool we all like to read until our eyes water and bleed lol. most of us reply really late in the night as we normally make this our last stop of the day. wen do u normally post?

WOW really late =O my mom would kill me..ahah i usualy come in here in the afternoon or so in Western Pacific Times. ahah yea usually this is my last stop too because of the length that i have to put into the writing and all.

wow sorry if i missed anyone >< i have so many to read and write to ahaha i just went :wacko:

[minty_angel]

liliceprincess: hello
my friend first told me about Rain, she said she was watching Full House and she said he was a singer too. and one time we passed this korean music store and there was a big It's Raining poster. hahaa i remember saying.. he's not thattt cute, and that i couldn't tell properly anyway since his face was half covered. buT i do remember thinking he has a hot bod. :bleh:
then a few weeks later my aunties rented full house n i borrowed off them to watch it. i remember at the beginning of the first episode i was like, he's not thatt good-looking. and my mum said - no, i think he is pretty good looking. hahaha. By the end of the first episode i was totally agreeing with her:whistle:. he was so cute! i went into total full house and rain craze after watching the series and then started listening to Rain's music.
i almost forgot to mention - when i watched the first clip of Rain dancing i was thinking OMG HE IS SO DAMN GOOD. hehe, i gotta admit his dancing is def. part of his charm.
how did you start liking rain?

i don't have a single favourite rain song. but i love il sook chi ana suh, na peun nam ja, i do, nu churum, familiar face, 내가 유명해지니 좋니. my favourite MV is sad tango but i love I Do too! lol it's so hard to choose favourites:rolleyes:

[panda_shine]

About the picture from Pepsi.. I forgot to comment on it.. I think he looks pretty good there :happy: Thankfully, he didn't had any weird outfits, lol... but I think it would've been better if he didn't had that sleeve covering his left arm haha.

I recently saw this old clip about the Kim Sun Ah? (the female lead from MNIKSS) prank.. it had subtitles too so I was able to understand and laugh along :happy: ..It was soo funny!.. both of their reaction were soo cute.. Bi had such a calm reaction.. I loved the part when he just kept laughing at the article and said "This article is funny.." and Kim Sun Ah had such a funny reaction too.. she seemed so ":shy: :angel:" when she read the article.. so cute.

Grace: I avoid watching k-dramas when I am busy because they are always soo addicting.. especially when I have the entire set on my hands.. I rarely stay up till really late but with k-dramas.. I can still up till like 2 or 3am watching it. :oops: Hehe, whenever Bi has that widen eyes look.. it's so cute. I remember this one clip where he saw this needle.. :D I can't remember what kind of clip it was though..Hope you can a hold of the tickets!!

Jessica/Rach: Ok hehe.. I hope we can watch Sangdoo around the same time too. I just realized the BT link to #13-16 isn't working so hopefully it'll work later on. I started d/l-ing the first epi way back in December lol.. :whistle:

Jessica: I thought it was a bit contradicting for Se7en to wear a NY cap for the World Cup performance hehe.

Jenna: oo.. the AI singer is different from the girl on the Brunch clip :tongue:

sweep: Kamsamida!! :happy: Good luck on job hunting! Yeah, it can be quite fustrating.. :oops:

teardrop: I still can't pick between whether I like FH or IJUKSA better because they are both very different.. though the whole BK look really got me drooling over Jeong Ji Hoon hohoho.. Yup, AI is more R&B. The songs I really like from her are E.O, Shining Star, I Wish, After The Rain.

Rach: For Se7en's Jap songs.. I recommend Last of Diary^^ It's a slow one :happy:

liliceprincess: oo.. I d/l-ed my Sangdoo from BT.. because I don't like how there's so many parts for k-dramas in youtube. If you need the BT torrent, I can give it to you^^ (but I don't think it's working at the moment)

i almost forgot to mention - when i watched the first clip of Rain dancing i was thinking OMG HE IS SO DAMN GOOD.
Me too! The first time I saw his dancing was when my friend showed me his It's Raining clip one night.. At that time, I had no idea who he was.. but after watching it, I was impressed by his dancing skills and erm.. his hotness lol. :rolleyes:

[gracecherry]

oh yes, i was just rewatching some clips of rain ytd ,*again* and i jus thought of putting the translation of bi's speech at Daesang, if anyone of u hasnt noe wat he was saying in that very emotional speech! i can never forget how he was crying while performing to its raining...he kept looking away ,and putting his mic slightly away and pulling his cap down.:cry: ,i can never forget how he stil hasnt calmed down yet even after he went backstage>_<

Rain's daesang speech :

Three years ago I promised my mother who is in heaven now, I promised her best singer award, thanks to all of you I could keep my promise, I would like to thank all my fans for their full support, you accepted me three years ago, I was nothing then, thank you JYP, I love you my fans, I’ll keep doing my best.


jess unnie > ommo its so amazingly good to have msn session wif u and ira! i noe i noe, i cant contained my laughter too when u showed us that swimming pool picture. regarding what the ex-fan asked u, as in when would u get tired of him? even i m quite taken aback by tat question, well, i am not ALL the time in the rain fangurling mode, but whenever i see him perform, or when he is offstage, like when he is relaxing or something... the fangurling mode wud jus recover, so naturally i cant stop it.
oh btw, i was rewatching the making of his 1st RD concert in seoul, and ahhaah....i hav to say that i realllLY like the way he was dressed for the press con rite before the concert begins, u noe which outfit i mean? all black, black blazer. and most of all i like that cap he wore, beneath wic he wore the bandana and he had his cornrolls.ehheeh. i noe many doesnt like his cornrolls though, but weirdly i do.heeh.and the moment rite before the concert starts, i can feel how he must be having butterflies in his stomach ^^

rachelle unnie > ^^ yes, i learn to be protective of my own box of biscuit from bi too! he is jus soooo....down to earth! and, yes, i admire him for being appreciative of the ppl working around him, and not as if...taking for granted that those ppl are SUPPOSED to serve him.haah.

monique > oh i gues, i was like u too, i mean, i never thought rain was that good looking right from the beginning, infact, when i first saw him, i thought he was just tall and well build and he doesnt have that, omg ..so charming effect on me. but i got to say,when i saw him dance. i was quite blown off ^^ and oh yes, the peek a boo part was soo funny, bi cant stop himself from laughing.

liliceprincess > hehe, yea the homecountry of jay, were u from taipei as well? or other parts of tw? hehe,yes i have watched Sangdoo before, i m not sure if its on youtube or not, i rented it locally and watch hehe.hope u wud like ST too...btw, Teardrop, isnt japanese,her ethnicity is partial chinese and vietnamese.ehhhe, he sis in law is japanese.^^

karen >oh u only recently saw that prank clip? hehe,i noe its SOO funny rite. heehe, bi didnt look all that 'calm' to me ... coz he was like pacing back n forth and he was messing up his alredy messy hair.! haha, he is so funny...it was so good to see his natural reaction. and, he was like...'i only met her once at some saloon' ....rite? hope i didnt remember wrongly.kaka, oh i can understand how addictive k dramas can be,and u r sooo well dicipline, at least u can control not tougching those dramas, coz if i hav the set with me, i jus cant keep my hands off it.^^, oh btw, i remember u like mika nakashima? i heard this song she sang, its the jap version of one of the main theme of MISA, its quite nice. wondering if u hav the mp3 of it? hehe.

[jessica]

grace: it was fun spazzing with you and Ira when i discovered that R4R pic :hugz: he looked like a little boy enjoying his favorite snack XD
i haven't re-watched any of those shows yet, but i'll do that soon ^^ the RD in Japan rehearsal clip was my first time seeing him practice his dance routine for the concert and i loved the simple clothes he wore with his fluffly hair. i usually only re-watch his performances. you wouldn't believe how he still takes my breath away everytime i see him performing on stage :love: i really hope you can get the front row tickets for at least one night of the concert, if you're planning to go to both.
Mika Nakashima was the original singer for Snowflower. i like both versions ^^ that song still saddens after all this time.
i can't watch his Daesang Award speech too many times. whenever he gets emotional it makes me feel sad >< oh, you read my new entry? for me, once i become a fan of a singer, i'd remain a fan for as long as his/her career last, unless something happens that will make me want to drift away. i've grown too attached to him to lose interest. i just read a cap-by-cap translation on a shoot he did for Pantech in the R4R DVD. it worries me to see that when he's in pain, he still maintains a smile to assure his fans that he's okay :cry: i'll come back to post the whole thing a little later. have to upload 10+ caps ^^;
yes, i know the outfit you're talking about! i was surprised to see him with cornrolls, but i liked it too ^_^

rach: lol. are you trying to convert your colleague into a fan? :shfity: is Shou Ji playing in your local radio station now? did you ever see the CF on TV?
i loved se7en's old style. i'm not very happy with the new one >< is it kind of Jpop-ish? some of his outfits so colorful and shiny o_o i read that he's going to film a MV with some popular Chinese stars, but i have no idea who they are :oops: hehe, i'm very content with Bi in wifebeaters and caps :drool: *gasp* how can you forget about Ji Hunnie's sexy deep voice! you need to add some of his songs to your playlist too =P

monique: i'm pretty sure that he was referring to the digital single. do you think that they'd sound good singing together? like Grace, i loved his collab with Tyrese even if we only got a short sample of it.
YSMM usually has 2 parts and from reading your description, you seem to have watched all of it ^^ the first time he was on, KSA and CTH were the guest and he had his Sangdoo hairstyle. the second time he was on, the guest was KSW, MC Mong, Ha Ga In, and another actor, and it only has 1 part. the other woman who kept on interrupting him was KSA and the other guy who was sitting next to Bi who was helping him out was KJD. i believe they are close friends ^^ for the last one, the guest was Kim Jong Gook and those 2 hilarious ajushi. (ajushi is a polite way to address an older man that you're not familiar with). the last one was my favorite, but the 2nd one was where i got to learn a little about his mischievous past :D
lol. seems like Ji Hun already worked his charm on your mom before you became a fan.

Wendy: if you can DL from megaupload, i posted all the links in the first post of his DL thread. there was news that ppl from Las Vegas are trying to get popular singers to perform in their casinos. he might be invited to go one day ^^ i was a fan since the end of 2003, but couldn't follow him closely until the end of 2004. you should listen to all his hits and Ways/How to Avoid the Sun was one of them ^^

karen: you never seen the KSA and Bi scandal prank till now?!! aigoo~ you've missed out! i was bursting out in laughter when i first watched it. both of their reactions were so cute and funny :D i almost fell to the floor when Bi slammed his hand on the table and said, "why is my pic so small?!" and when she said, "with that body, how can i see him as a younger brother" :roll: both are so humorous :laughing:
you can try the MU links to Sangdoo in his DL thread if BT is not working for you. if they're down, i'll try to look for fresh links ^^
I thought it was a bit contradicting for Se7en to wear a NY cap for the World Cup performance hehe.
haha, i never thought of that :tongue:

some updates:

--It was raining in southern of korea, Bi's movie "cyborg" was delayed a few days.
so from June30-July5, Bi was on vacation, but in the other side he worrys the delay may
have any impact for the schedule of his new album recording and asian concert tour

--Bi just become the new Giordano endorsement man, pairs with JDG

i'm relieved to know that he took a short vacation. hope he got enough time to rest and recharge himself before he's piled with work again. even during his vacation, he worries about work >< i'm sure his fans won't be disappointed if the release of his new album or concert tour gets delayed. he deserves some time off after working nonstop since he filmed Full House :wacko: i'm looking forward to his Giordano pics! :excited:

[Rain[Bi]]

Hello, sorry if these messages are old didn't really get to reply to them sorry. :sweat:

teardrop: Hello.Thats all really big welcome all right LoL, Anyways thanks for the welcome. I first liked his acting then got into his music and just stared to get to know his profile and all..I never saw him in mtv asia awards, thats because I don't have the channel haha. I am watching "Full House" right now and starting to watch Sangdoo sorta. What song is your favorite and album by Rain?

may_510: Thanks for putting guy in there :tongue:. No I never show that poster before, though its sorta plain ahah.

gracecherry: : I hope you don' think I am gay :worry: Lol. Yeah, not alot of guys acknowledge him. They think he is werid and just a pretty boy (I sorta though that at first but then I started to listen to his music and series and he was pretty cool. ahah).Thats pretty cool she got to see him up close, though it must be really hot in there with all the sweat and people. Who's Jenna?

Seems really long to upload all of the esps. to watch, and I going to get there one day to those ahah.. Still not finished with 'Full House' ahah.I don't know if I am going to watch "A love to kill". I don't really know what it is about, could you tell me what it is about ><. I saw the second eps of Sangdoo and it was super funny I think from the first and second eps that Sangdoo is better then Full House

jessica: Really, thats werid. ahha. Glad I'm the first guy to stop by here Lol. How was 'A Love to Kill' a hard role for him to play? He seems really good in alot of different characters so what makes this one so different? I am slow, what are the two other albums called? ahha. Yeah, my friend Kevin did, he likes Rain, Se7en, and Jay too aahha.. He got me into them ><.

He told me they keep the Jay and Rain news updated and that it was easy to get to know people lol. So I decided to give it a try. People acually read the intro's? ahh.. Are you the one that got to see Rain in concert?


rachelle03: Hello. Thats good that people know I am a guy now, it feels better to know that people think I am a guy instread of a guy. What series is your favorite?

panda_shine: I should change my name to something that sounds like a guy. ><. The only problem is that I don't have chinese cable or whatever just have English. I have to catch it all on Youtube these days ahah. Do you know any Duets that Rain did with anyone? *Haven't really got to know*

jbalibean: *Goes to search for the DL links you said there were haha* I never heard of 'let's go to school'. Is it really about school and that stuff? He seems really busy these days and how can he also do the Pepsi thing too. His world tours always seem to be sold out these day, I wish so much he could come to Canada though I don't think I could get front row seats too expencive these days

[liliceprincess]

hey everyone! :wave:

Rain::
sorry if these messages are old didn't really get to reply to them sorry.
ahah its no problem really i mean we all always write a lot and its just a lot of backlogs and i know what you mean to have to read a ton of messages and get lost at times..hahah but its the fun part about being in here.. the talking never stops which is awesome. have you seen sangdoo before?

--Bi just become the new Giordano endorsement man, pairs with JDG
the CF for Fall line will be released at the end of July.
hmm what is Giordano??..i know its clothing but hmm ahah i never heard of it :shy:

jessica: ahha i dream and wish that one day he will come to las vegas..but then again at the same time..there would be a ton of ppl and its like ahah no clue if i will ever get to see him..maybe in concert one day ^^ Ohh thanks for the links. ^^ i have to see if i can DL or not..my parents are strict about it after i killed like 3 computers with spyware ><wow! =D 2003! that is amazing..ahah i think i was obssessed with ambrose at that time. LOL hmmm ahha i think i will have to listen soo many hits he has.

gracecherry: mm i wasnt from taipei but i have been there many times. =) ohh thanks for the reminder about teardrop ethnicity..soo many of you i kinda get lost who is what ethnicity :shy: ahh lol i have seen some of sangdoo over and its sooo awesome still ^^ Rain looks adoreable..and my sis watches with me now sinc eshe finds some of the parts funny.

panda_shine:: thanks for the offer ^^ but its okay..jessica has it on the first page and i dunno if i can DL >< yea i have noticed that in youtube some parts of it are cut off because of the timining and all in the website now.

but I think it would've been better if he didn't had that sleeve covering his left arm haha.
ahah i would agree with you he loooks a lil better if he didnt have the sleeves it makes a lil weird looking lol

monique: ooo wow! your story of how you liked Rain is cool! i mean i never seen his cds or anything ahha i have only seen his full house and sangdoo. Hmm how i liked rain i was watching Full house whne it was recommended to me from my friends. Well ahah i came back into liking rain and then i came in here but i did before but then jay become so popular and i just had time for one. Once it was a lil slow for jay i watched full house and i was like OMG he is adoreable and the acting is funny. I enjoyed the series very much and then i just started to listen to his music. I love I DO! it is an awesome song and i love the mood when i listen to it.
ahah i definitely have to agree with you that when i first met Rain in clips of his dancing i was like *jaw drop* it was soo awesome i think the first one i had seen was "Its Raining" i was amazed from it and i loved that song from the beat of it.
yea i have noticed almost all of you guys that i have talked to that you guys have a lot of times that you would say sad tango MV is the best.

[rachelle03]

hmm what is Giordano??..i know its clothing but hmm ahah i never heard of it
It's a brand that sells casual clothings. So far, I do know it's available in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, HK and Korea. Most likely it's in these Asian countries.
But too bad my local stores doesnt have those korean stars endorsing it. :oops: It's like, they don't 'share' the endorsers throughout the brand. :dry:

karen: Thanks for the recommendation, I'll check it out. :wink2: The KSA prank is too hilarous. lol. I've been trying to link this KSA with the same one in YSMM and MNIKSS. She looked soooo different!!! But I think oori Bi do somehow suspects that there's a camera. Remember how he suddenly looked for his hat and fiddling with his hair? :hmm:

grace: Ya, he's like a superstar but still that humble boy within him. Are we back at the topic of his cornrolls? Although I still can't accept his cornrolls in Rainy Day Seoul, I find his cornrolls at the 2nd night in BKK pretty decent. :love: You know, the way it's real tied to the back and without those danglings. Hmm, the Daesang awards. That's one of the best It's Raining performance I've seen (be it the opening show or the after award's). His outfit there is very nice too. But I've yet to seen the backstage clip of it. Hmm, shall check it out.

Jess/Grace: I've done watching My Girl! ^^
I find the last episode filled with lots of 'rollercoaster'-like storylines. :wacko: As expected, it's a happy ending. ^^ But I find it pretty weird on why they don't want to show the grand daughter's face til the end. :? Why they have to keep it a secret? It wasnt until today when I went to the video shop and the girl over there told me that the actor and actress are from Sassy Chun Hyung. :sweat: And the grandfather is very stubborn! Why he had to keep GC and YR apart?! Hrmphh. Yoo Rin was so nice to him. I felt so sad when YR was at Incheon airport and she broke down upon remembering GC's promise to be with her wherever they are going to be in future. Aww... Hmm, I must say watching this show do makes me had second thoughts on LJK. He's not just a pretty boy afterall. At least he cried better than Lee Dong Wook. haha... The imaginary scenes in the show are very funny too, eg. YR counting money while GC asked money from her. :D (I've forgotten what's the storyline there though. ^^''' )

jess: I seldom listen to local radio station ^^"" , but I remember reading from forum that Shou Ji is on the chart in one of our top chinese radio station. I wonder if it's true. :hmm: And no, Pantech is not avail here, so we didnt get to see the CF as well. One disadvantage to live in an international country is that it's very impossible to see ads of international brand with celebs endorsing. Eg. Samsung, Panasonic, Pepsi... (It's all the international version with models.) We don't really even get to see Jay with the various Panasonic hps here. Even though we had Metersbonwe here, there's no sight of Jay at all. The Pepsi ads over here were David Beckham and the soccer guys as well.
Sigh.
I dont think I'll be able to convert my colleague. He's too into the english hip hop and r & b.
Is the new Se7en MV you were saying is for Sprite? If so, I think I know who were the endorsers in it. Hmm, is his new style japanese? erm... outfit - kindof. hair... not really though. Dont worry, I still remember Rainy boy, cause he sound so good singing the Sang Doo song (Because I Know) live in Rainy Day. I think he sound better than the cd version. Ha ha....

Jerry: My favourite series... Hmm, it's a very tough choice. :oops:
I enjoyed Full House the most and it's the first korean drama that I've watched. It made me think otherwise of the typecast teary korean drama. Sang Doo Let's Go To School was the first korean I intended to watch but I end up watching FH first. But I was impressed by how good Ji Hun's acting is, with his first acting stint. IJUKSA was the first korean drama that made me cried. Ji Hun's acting there was awesomely superb. I cant make a choice. ><
You have to watch all three.

[jessica]

Jerry: in A Love to Kill, he had to play someone who is a depressed and angry person who seeks revenge, but in the process, he fell in love with someone he shouldn't. after that, you'd see the internal struggle he has within himself and his feeling and loyalty towards his brother and the person he shouldn't and couldn't love. he had went through a lot of training to prepare for that role because he plays a K-1 fighter (something similar to a boxer). if you want to see how his acting improved, you should definitely watch this after Sangdoo ^^ Let's Go to School is part of the title of his 1st drama. the full name is Sangdoo, Let's Got to School.
his first album is called Bad Guy and the second one is called Ways/How to Avoid the Sun. i listed all the info you need to know about him in the first post of this thread. take a look and if you have any questions, feel free to ask :happy:
lol. your friend should drop by this thread too since he's a fan. i normally don't check up on new member's intro, but i was just curious about you since you're the first male who dropped by this thread. don't worry, i'm not a stalker :shy:...unless Bi comes here again, then i'd be in full stalk mode :angel: yes, i'm the one who went to his concerts ^^

and just a pretty boy
haha, i find it ironic that after he becomes famous that ppl would find him good-looking or a pretty boy. he wouldn't have struggled so much if agencies accepted him for his looks when he first started out. but i'm sort of relieved that he wasn't chosen by JYP (his manager) based on his outer appearance. it just shows that he has talent that other's can't see because they can't look past the image of a person -.-

Wendy: i never heard of Giordano until another actor i like also endorsed it ^^; as far as i know, MU links are pretty safe and that was where i DLed the whole series. i've gotten spyware from installing a program, but never from DLing media off of filesharing hosts :sweat: he doesn't have lots of hits. just the popular ones that he performed a lot, like Bad Guy, Instead of Saying Goodbye, Ways/How to Avoid the Sun, It's Raining, and I Do.

rach: did you watch Sassy Girl Chun Hyung (i highly recommend that drama too!)? i don't know if the scriptwriter intended to call them back as guest stars for the last episode, but it was the case, then they can't show the granddaughter's face until then. i'm glad you have second thoughts on LJK! now you just have to watch the King and the Clown to fully appreciate his acting and crying skills :D or you might want to check out Lee Soo Young's 3 part MV first ^^
oh, that's interesting. i always thought the CFs endorsed by Chinese celebrities are broadcasted throughout Chinese speaking countries :shy:
i'm not certain which new MV se7en's going to shoot, but it takes place in China, Shanghai. i remember reading that he shot a MV with...Lexy? (another YG artist), but they decided to re-shoot it with another person.
lol. Rainy boy? you had a lot of first with him! was he also you first favorite kpop artist? :excited:

here's the cap-by-cap + translation of a scene in Road for Rain that i said i'll post. i'm definitely going to buy this DVD set when the korean/international version comes out :cry: *crosses fingers that it'll be in ALL/1 region code*

令人心疼的Bi!(看完Road For Rain有感)

當我看完Rain的日本寫真DVD後,很心疼Rain的敬業 "雨"投入!為了將舞蹈完美的演出,就算是扭傷亠†脖子,仍苦撐完將演出完美呈現,雖然寫真有些 貴,但為了表示支持Rain,

Feeling sorry for Rain after reading Road For Road.

After I've finish watching Rain's Road for Rain' DVD, his prefessionalism makes my heart aches. Rain hurt his neck while dancing but he still try his best to finish his performance. Even though the album is a bit expensive, I still want to support him.

也希望有能力的大家,能踴躍購買!別讓惡毒的堅«卦媒體,老是說Rain走下坡,而且日本市場競爭栘¯很激 烈的!以下是節錄其中片段,雨大家一起删†享!請大家務必能繼續支持Rain,別讓他傷心,好 堗Ž?:
Hope everyone will also support Rain by buying his Album (photo album) if they can afford it. Don't let the press always spread rumors about Rain losing his popularity. The Japanese market is very competitive. I enclose the following video about Rain hurting himself during practice. Please support Rain and don't let him be sadden by negative reports of him.

1.因為儘全力演出,所以不小心扭傷了脖子,痛痠›~~~

:shock: OMG! rain is hurt T_T awwww i hope he gets better awww i cant believe that he got hurt from dancing..but it happens often i guess since most of the time there is so much people that dance and just pull something:cry: aww i think ill buy it too i mean expensive it can be >< but still awww its like so insane of the pain and yet he doesnt give up its just so awwwww:worry:

It's a brand that sells casual clothings. So far, I do know it's available in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, HK and Korea. Most likely it's in these Asian countries.
rachelle03 ohh thanks for the explanation..ahah when i heard the title i was like hmm is it like the one i was thinking cause there is one which is like tuxedos that i see advertised on tv a lot..ahah thanks for clearing it up for me. awwwww :cry: that stinks that its only in asia its like i will never have a chance to go there:worry: lucky people.

jessicaohhh so do a lot of people endorse giordano? hmm i was thinking like yea that same about spyware but at the same time :glug: i dont wanna get another computer killed aahha cause yea i dunno hmm i DLed songs before and viruses came and spyware right after. but its okey ^^ i think i found someone in youtube its just taking forever for the person to upload them. but i must be appreicative.:happy: ohhh so those are the hits :shy: ahha as you can see im still a lot new to this XD but im catching up lol

[gracecherry]

jess unnie & rachelle unnie > ommo, i think i must be superr BLUR or something, i didnt noe, Kim Sun Ah was in one of the YSMM's with bi? i dun noe if i didnt recognize her as sam soon ^^ or i dont hav the ep of ysmm bi did with KSA. ahh, MUST go check out my clips collection later! and ahahha, i think that bi DID suspect there must be a camera somewhere, the part wher he kept looking for his hat and fiddling his hair, was soo spontaneously funny,and the funniEST of all was like Jess said, why is my pic so small !! sometimes i jus cant belive a guy like him, so playful, vibrant and humourous in within is so serious, mature and devotion .he is just unbelivable.

jess > oh, u only rewatch his performances? hehe i c. i dont, i can REwatch any BI clips! kaka.u noe, as much as i wana see rain perform both nites IF he is having both nites here. i dont think i can do it, my mom, she would think i m super crazy to see the same perf twice, i had this biggggg war with her,the last time i wanted to go to jay's incomparable concert in KL, coz she said i went for the HK one. !! i would be soo glad if i can even make it to ONE day of his KL concert...and i would try to get the middle range tickets. i cant even imagine how its like to feel him, that near. ive been watching bi clips, coz, i just needed to be affected by his sense of determination, in a time i m facing rite now, so thats why, when i saw his daesang clip, the 7th rainmaker : bi's omma, and the 03 xmas mission, i just...becomes speechless, nomatter what hardships he endure, he thinks that it is nothing compared to the torture his mother went thru, 'ji hun : perseverance and endurance, i think thats where i learnt that from' , this part of his speech really touched me deeply. so i want to at least learn to be a little like him, dont be afraid to take the first step out to achieve ur dreams, even if u dont make it, u would learn alot from the process.

awww~ OMG, the caps!! that is the filming of pantech clip?i dont recall bi in tat outfit for any pantech clips.hmm...but oh myyy... reading those captions jus reconfirmed my impression of him. i mean, no matter how tired, hurt or uncomfortable he felt,he would stil try to be good on the outside. i remember one of the rainmaker, his lead dancer i think said that bi never felt fatigue, or he never shows us, and he said,that he hopes bi could slow down a lil bit and catch his breath. aww...it saddens me to see him working to such extents! and these are the translations from a fan about R4R which u said u have been compiling rite? so there are more of such stories? oh my, i hope i can secretly buy it without having found out by my mom! since its not out,how cud that fan hav it??but, in those caps...i like his cap and the bandana, he looks so cool in it...jus like how it was at the seoul rd press con, and the bak sang awards and pantech,kaka.

oh did u get mika's mail from rainusa? heehe,i m soo happy that the gifts has been sent !! and that fund raising from ADA went well! aww.thats so great,i gues ji hunnie would see the sincerity from his fans.

and i rewatch the norewah show too, ahh, it seems everyone has a story of their own ! but i find bi, seven and shinhwa's story funny.heeheh, bi wif the nosebleed story, aigooo i cant belive how he can stil sing with his nose bleeding! and seven with tat out of tune story. oh my...

i see that rainusa has become the official CLOUD USA?? can we jus join that website or must be pay the fee to join as official clouds?

rachelle unnie > oh, u MUST include some bi songs in ur playlists, songs like shou ji, ways to avoid the sun,ak soo and i do! ahhaa, i recently did tat and i m addicted to his voice again.wahaha.yes u r like its all bout how he is a superstar yet, such a humble person in within, and i believe in him. it is probably becoz he noe before he started out, he is just a guy, like everyone else... and he became rain, becoz of the enormous support from his fans. so...yea...he is so admirable.and, oh the backstage of the daesang...i gues its actually in the 3rd section of the clip in the 3rd RD VCD.^^ really? the its raining performance in daesang was tat good at the beginning? coz i dun hav the clip for tat, i only saw the one he performed after winning ,wic was so....touching~ when i see him crying i recall the xmas mission clips,the MC said,that even ji hun's crying is beautiful...one of the most impressive comments ive heard. i noe of coz the mc wasnt referring to the action of crying, but the feelings within him.ahh~~ oh YESSS, u should try to get to noe a littttle bit more of jun ki sshi too! hehe, coz he is another nice, bubbly cute guy,with a great personality.heeh.i wonder if bi would appear on msia's giordano posters anot too~~? hehe^^ n yes, i like it too when the cornrolls are tied back!

jerry > of coz i dont think u r gay. infact u r special, coz many guys DENY the charm or talent they see in male stars.i duno if they feel inferior or watever ^^ i think those guys are very childish too. like jess explained, 'a love to kill' (i jukil nomui sarang' ,this serial really portrayed jeong ji hun as the actor and u can see NO signs of RAIN in the character he played, called 'kang bok gu', it is about a guy who had a very unfortunate family background, and he grew to become very rebellious etc etc. but deep inside, he is stil a man with good values, he plan to revenge on the woman whom he thinks causes the death of his brother, which he soon learn that he was wrong, and the mistakes he did was so sinful he cant forgive himself. the character rain played requires him to show a LOT of anguish and self inflicted pain...yea.

i m glad u liked Sangdoo. coz as for me, i didnt really like it till, ep 6 onwards >_< but but, that drama is so meaningful as well becoz, it jus shows how unfortunate someone's life can be, and nomatter how hard they strive to be a good person, they jus dont get the chance to be one.sigh.

jenna = jbalibean. eheh, well....slowly when u get to DL clips of the scenario during live RD concerts, u would noe...how great it is to actually be part of the crowd who all supports for the same person, how all ppl...everyone has their own story of getting to noe rain, all from different coutnries ...gather united on a nite ...its overwhelming, and how the cheers wud drown ur senses...haha.as for his MSG RD....i m really impressed by the 'international' feel of it. thx to JESS here, that we get to read about the concert.haha,oh yea maybe u shud get ur fren Kevin in here as well? heeh, and ahh...'lets go to school' is actually a part of the title for sangdoo ' sangdoo,lets go to school' the completed name for the serial.^^

lilice >i c i c,heehe, its ok..dun worry, i noe when u r new in here, u wud tend to mix up a bit.hehee.oh yea, rain's determination is superb, and this isnt the first of only one of the times he behaves this way...he never gives up...u shud watch the xmas mission clips, its a sudden concert, with a mission wic he has to like....gather an audience of 5000 in a day. by, a few hrs of self promotion and advertisements in malls, restaurants and the streets, and this even took place only a few mths after his debut, he was not popular then... and by the time, he reached the stadium, when the concert was supposed to start he saw no one, there,and u can SOOO see that look on his face, its like....it cud freeze u. and yet...in the end,very surprisingly many audiences turned up...but the concert was stil not being able to launced,becoz the target of 5000 wasnt accomplished.

and that was when rain felt the love of fans , many who are kids or aunties and elder citizens ,and when he cant contained his emotions on the stage, those audiences actually sang a very encouraging song to him and it made him even harder to contain his emotions....aww~ all the things he went thru to b here now....he deserves every moment of it.

Bbaek-Ga "A very suave fellow, Jeong Jihoon" Receives Netizens' Responses
08 Jul 06, mydaily.co.kr
Journalist Gan Eun Jin reports (ing@mydaily.co.kr)

Kr to Ch: liusu33
Ch to Eng: Rayndrop

Koyotae member, Bbaek-ga uploaded some photos on his personal blog and received overwhelming responses from netizens.

On the afternoon of 7th July, Bbaek-ga uploaded pictures taken with Rain and other friends.
"On this cool summer night in Hankang (or Han River), three men met up to experience the romance of the night during the early summer."
"The pale moonlit night was accompanied by the soft river breeze and the floating clouds"
With regards to the friends in the photos whom he has known for 10 years, Rain wrote these words.

Bbaek-ga said "People who change their character and thinking as their status change; Sometimes, even the people around them change."
He began with these words and continued, "No matter how famous Jihoon is; if he changes, I will not be able to stay by his side. Putting aside the issue of whether our developments have been good or bad after we split up, I anticipate even more a future when we can lean upon each other like blood-kins".

Bbaek-ga continued, "Nine years ago, that tall kid with a child-like face, who came over and said he wanted to learn dancing, Rain."
He reminises the moment when he first met Rain,
"At that time, I never expected that moment of fate could last for 10 years, and didn't expect that youngster to become the biggest artiste in Korea. In these 10 years, he is one of those few who are very important in my life. Although a younger brother, sometimes he is like an older brother. Just like that, he stayed by my side like a friend unchanged all these while. I am grateful," Bbaek-ga expressed his feelings towards Rain.

Netizens responded with words like:
"Rain is very charismatic; so is Bbaeg-ka who wrote such great words for his friend. Hope the friendship between you two lasts forever."
"Great words, great photos. Hope this great friendship lasts forever"

I've posted the pics in the pics thread. ^^

Jess: I saw the caps in soompi. He's really indeed a very hardworking person. Totally admired him for that. Yup, he's actually my first favourite kpop artiste. If you remember KANR having a Kimchi vs Wasabi Theme week, I was in the Wasabi troop then. After knowing Bi, the rest is history. ^^ Although years ago, I remembered watching a MV by Fly To The Sky. It featured Song Hye Gyo and SSH. It's about SHG's boyfriend being killed in a air crash then SSH is their best friend. Do you know what MV is that?
I've yet to watch Sassy Chun Hyung thought the lady at the shop recommends me to watch it.

grace: I must rewatch the making of Rainy Day then. ^^ You have yet to watch the Daesang Performance?! You cannot missed it! I'll re-upload it up in the thread soon. Do watch out for it. :wink2: The rapport of the audience with him is great as well. Do let me know if M'sia giordano has his posters up. I would cross over to buy some giordano stuffs then. lol.

lilice: You're welcome. ^^ But like I told jess, SG seldom had celebs endorsing products. Therefore I wont get to see it as well.

[gracecherry]

rachelle unnie > i jus came back from the pics thread, i cant see the pics....so sorry i duno if its my computer or something, but cud u pls put the direct links there? kumawayo^^ and oh i didnt noe that BG and bi is that close till i read ur article ^^...okie wud keep up with the DL thread.

[minty_angel]

grace: yeah, i guess rain's charm rubs onto you soon enough anyway:D. plus the more you learn about him the more you like him! he seems to be a down-to-earth guy and not the arrogant type. When i watched the NGs for Sangdoo, several times he apologised when he made mistakes. I have never seen that happen before with other actors! He's also such a romantic.. and so sweet...and innocent. gosh. his girlfriend would be sooo lucky!

jess: I didn't know tyrese when you mentioned him, but i had a look at his site just now and he's pretty good. When did Rain collaborate with him? I'm not sure if they will sound good together coz Rain's voice is deeper n their music isnt that similar, but i'm keeping my fingers crossed anyway.=) woww, when they collab, that's gonna bring Rain into the U.S market even more. YAY. OMGG if they play it on Aus. radio i'd be so pysched.

Ohh so KJD and Rain r close friends. i liked the recent one more too, it was more entertaining.

oh no Rain hurt himself=( i hope it got better quickly. Do you know if it was recently?

liliceprincess: oh ok. heaps of people start liking rain from watching Full House. Young-Jae's just irresitible:D
hehe yeah , I Do is such a happy, uplifting kinda song, especially the MV - i love how everything's white!

[jessica]

Wendy: i only know of 3 stars who endorses (endorsed) that brand so far. he's taking over Lee Jun Ki's place because his contract with them is up. the media is already making it sound like Bi is trying to compete with Jun Ki :dry:
don't worry, you'll catch up in time ^^

grace: KSA looked very different in that YSMM clip. she was wearing a...boat neck(?) red shirt and he was very tanned. she was seated next to CTH. i do re-watch his shows, but i have to be in the mood for it. his perf are so much shorter so i can watch a bunch at a time, whereas for shows, i'll only watch one or a few more if i have time ^^; aww, i remember the debate you had with your mom when you wanted to go to Jay's concert again. you won't regret getting the tickets closer to the stage. watching him perform live gives you an electrifying effect (for me anyway since i was so close =P)! but i've read reports from fans who were seated far back and they were also enjoying the concert because of the energy he gives off, so don't worry if you can't get the mid range tickets ^^
i don't know when he filmed the Pantech clip with that outfit either. i wonder why it was never shown >< this is not the translation to the dialogues in R4R, but only caps and translation from a scene in the DVD. i only collected the translations up to DVD 2: Chapter 3. i think there should be more, so i'll send you the whole transcript when i get everything ^^ the Japanese version of Road for Rain is out already and that's the one that some fans have. JYPE never mentioned that there will possibly be a Korean (or international) version until recently. yes, i love his cap + bandana/durag look! so napeun namja :love:
i've read the msg from Mika ^^ i didn't know that the other rainusa site became his official USA fansite though, until you mentioned it now :shy: you can register for free ^^ i'm not sure if that's his official Cloud USA site :sweat: there should be an announcement if it is.

haha, the 2004 Norewah show was one of my favorite clips. it had all of my favorite gasoos in one room (minus FTTS) and the stories of the mistakes they made while performing were so funny :D

rach: i remember that KANR was very Wasabi oriented during that theme week, but i don't think that's the case now :D the song in that MV featuring SSH and SHG wasn't sung by Fly to the Sky, but Kim Bum Soo. that was my first Korean MV i saw and a very sad one :cry: i recommend that watch Sassy Girl Chun Hyang too! Jae Hee (the male lead in that drama) resembles Jay in some angles :love:
aww, that's a sweet msg from his friend! i love that quote from Ji Hun. it sounds so exquisite and refined :cloud9:

monique: they recorded a song together last year when he visited LA during the Hollywood Bowl concert. i hope they broadcast the song that he's going to collab with Omarion worldwide. imagine the publicity he's going to get before his debut here! :excited:
those caps i posted are from his Road for Rain photobook + DVD set. the photoshoots took place in Cuba last year. i'm not sure when he shot that scene for Pantech :oops:

[liliceprincess]

woah backlogged again lol tis like everyday process aha

lilice: You're welcome. ^^ But like I told jess, SG seldom had celebs endorsing products. Therefore I wont get to see it as well.

oooooo aww that stinks :dry:

very surprisingly many audiences turned up...but the concert was stil not being able to launced,becoz the target of 5000 wasnt accomplished.


gracecherrywow reading that its like omg that is soo insane and just sad and yet again seeing him now its like aww he made it and i am glad for him. aww i understand how that kind of stuff happens like in concerts and its just sucks >< i remember that my friend which went to jay's concert was like ack >< not many people showed up in las vegas when he had came and then its just saddening how in asia you make it and yet suddenly here its harder :cry: but im glad rain is who he is now ^^ i mean he is successful and finally in a position where he is well-known and probably can rally up 5000 people in no time :D

monique ahah yea i got interested in him through Full House even though a lot of my friends liked Sangdoo a lot better. hmm which one do you like the best? i think for me i think it would still have to be full house just iwth the first episode it was just funny and silly.and with sangdoo i had to watch mroe to udnerstand it a lil more.

jessica:dry: there is always the stuff with the paparrazi when it comes to things like that its just like jay and rain kinda thing about pepsi and another one. its just insanity i find it when you are said to be "fighting" and all for a spot and all. i dotn think its competition i mean how can it be if its just a contract that is up:? yea ^^ i love being in here even though i cant catch up at times ahah

here is some news:

A Dialogue With an actor in Cyborg
Credit: 澈厙// Baidu.com// jinlees@soompi//asianfanatics.net

Ch to Eng: Rayndrop

(Note: B= the actor)

A: How have you been lately?

B: I've been running around. Busy with performances (He's a graduate from University of Seoul, Drama major)

A: What have you been busy with lately?

B: I took part in Director Pak Chan Wook's new movie.

A: (Suddenly brighten up) The one with Rain?

B: Yes, with Rain and Im Soo Jung.

A: What role are you playing?

B: I play a patient in the same mental hospital they're in.

A: How's Rain?

B: That is no joke.

A: What?

B: He's really such a nice person. One of the most courteous people at the set. Anybody in that position has the assets to be proud, but he's never been like that. He's not pretending it, but really from the bottom of his heart. Rain is like a kind-hearted younger brother. Not one crew member say he's not nice.

A: (Diplomatically test a little) I heard his acting's not very good?

B: To be honest, his acting skills are even stronger than me, the drama major graduate. At the beginning, I thought he's no good too, but that's not the case. Also, he is really very hardworking.

A: (Very happy in my heart. Change the topic a little) Really? How about Director Pak?

B: Director Pak is also a good man. Just listening to his name and you'll know he's a somebody in the movie industry. He takes good care of the actors and crew members. I've learned a lot from Rain and Director Pak. Heard of Senior Oh? He's acted in "Old Boy". Because of him, we've had plenty of drinking opportunities.

[gracecherry]

ahh~ my first day of classes started today after my long 3mth sem break. things are still very not settled yet, and the subject registration will definitely be in a mess to at least 2 weeks from now. i hate how the procedures are over here...arghhh

jess unnie > neways.i went for my 1st korean class today, even though i m not in the official registered list yet, but oh my.the teacher was sooo niceee. she is a korean lady who can speak well in eng, and mandarin and even a little of our local malay language.hehee. and she taught us some really simple phrases wic ive heard mostly in dramas ^_^ hahaah. but i realy enjoyed the class, we wud hav lotsa oral activities and interaction, n later on we wud learn the korean alphabets too.ahh...she is so nice, and cute. she was wondering why do we want to learn the language,and before we answer she cud hav guessed the answer aredy,she said, dramas? ehehe, well tats a good way to learn faster too.heehe....and she even asked which are our favs...she wud explain about the korean culture, why,they like soju,why they bow...etc.. and she even said she may bring over some of their korean exchange students to our class for interaction, the sad thing, is i m skipping another major class of mine, to temporarily attend this class,ahh....><

neways, yes my mom wud slaughter me, if i go two days,but watever it is, i will definitely at least make it for one nite....!! bbahshah! and, oh i JUST cant wait to read all about bi....those video clips and tranlations bout him in R4R is is soo interesting, its a platform of knowing more about the personal bi.oh yes yes,the site has become the OFFICIAL USA CLOUD site. really, the link is available rite on the first page of RAIN USA. hehe.and i saw many china, japan and korea clouds posting there aredy too,but its so weird that i cant register, when i completed the form, n submit, it wud say go back to previous page.hmm, so i m wondering if we hav to be the official cloud by paying fees first before joining this one.hmm.

yes,the norewah show, hehe. their stories were soo interesting.lol.rite now i cant stop listening to wheesung's a story i cant tell.

btw, i think i really dun hav the KSA-CTH-BI ysmm.>< aigooo. and ommo i havent been to the DL thread for ages,and oh gosh those clips are sooo tempting me, i cant wait for my package,and i wonder if the entire vietnam related clippies are in...hehe. well, from those caps,it seems like bi look so fine, smiley and all...and his complexion didnt look bad...i jus adore his smileeee...under those shades.hmm,take ur shades off in the car ji hunnie! ^^ well, the fact tat he is soo tired from the morning filming n flight and sick.....aww.

lilice > yea that xmas mission set of clips were pretty insane, but becoz it was to be done as a tribute to bi's mommy,so its a FREE concert...but its sudden ...its like, alrite,today ur mission is to raise a 5000 ppl concert in a day's time. there will be NO media support, its all on ur own,its so cute to see bi dashing into karaoke rooms and explain that he wud be holding a concert, pls come...etc hehe,its very much like election campaigns! and it was on a cold winters day, pretty gloomy, its xmas eve, and bi's mommy actually passed away on xmas day if i m not mistaken,so the timing and everything is pretty traumatizing for bi.....ahh.i wonder if rain stil remembers that event.really? i thought jay's concert in LV went pretty well? i noe that his LA Shrine audi concert was very successful, as for me,i went for his 2nd nite concert in HK, out of the 7 consecutive nites which were all full. heeh, the feeling is great....coz its indoor stadium,so its comfortable and its like watching a movie....ahh, i hope i can watch bi live in such a way tooo.ahh.

monique > yes, he is down to earth, its even more confirmed hearing what bbaekga wrote bout him.^^ but, i think there are other artistes out there who arent arrogant and all too...but, theres jus something about bi...well, mayb becoz he is jus so strong, thats something rare...haha, yes, he would be a guy great as oppa, as chingoo, as work partners...u would see more of his humble personality during concert rehearsals too.besides being humble and thankfull, he is very playful too..

[jessica]

update: he's in the US now! :excited: i think he's in LA. he's not going to record the song yet, but will be discussing about it with the ppl in charge here.

Wendy: Jay's concert in Las Vegas wasn't full? >< hope he doesn't feel disheartened to hold more concerts in the US. i missed his concert in CT 2 years ago ><;
i wish more fans would think like you do about the CF endorsement issue. a star can't be the spokesperson for a product forever and when their contract is up, then whoever's popular will get picked. anyway, i'm happy that he's finally endorsing a new clothing line! that means there will be more hot pics to ogle at :angel:
thanks for the "dialogue with an actor in Cyborg" report ^^ it feels great to read that even an experienced actor would praise his acting and how humble he is with the crew he works with. how can we not admire him? :love:

grace: the first couple of weeks are usually very hectic. hope you can work things out and get the classes you wanted to take :console: the korean class sound like so much fun! but you shouldn't be skipping one of your major class to attend this or you'll fall behind ^^;
if Rain USA became official Clouds, there should be an announcement from JYPE about it. maybe i've missed it :sweat: i'll go look for news on JYPE ^^ that's stange. once you've completed the form, you should be able to log in. i think go back to previous page means that you've completed the registration process already? did you try logging in with your id and pw?
oh, the xmas mission clip is subbed by someone on sexybi recently so i hope Ira DLed it too and send you the clip. the mission was to get 5000 ppl to attend, but Ji Hun pushed it to 6000 as the mark. the atmosphere was bittersweet. we see him trying his best to attract ppl to come to this meaningful concert, and those who attended were so supportive of him. i couldn't contain my tears as well :cry:

for those living in Asia who missed his first KBS documentary, you can catch it on your local TV stations soon!

Rain's Documentary Distributed all over Asia. Secret of his 4 years in Entertainment is Revealed.
10 Jul 06, Sina Entertainment
Koreaguy reports

Credit: Rainhk/ jinlees@soompi
Ch to Eng: Rayndrop

The documentary that shows the record of Rain's road to stardom will be exported to six Asian countries and territories.

"KBS Special- Rain, the leap through Asia (Rayndrop:title trans my own, not official)" which was aired on channel KBS1 on 30 Oct last year has been exported to China, Singapore, Phillippines, Indonesia etc.

KBS media, which is reponsible for KBS' foreign cultural communication says, "We've recently exported six documentaries to three European countries. This time, we've exported 24 documentaries, including that of Rain, to six Asian countries and territories. Documentaries and serial dramas are different. They are quite difficult to export. But Rain's documentary is still easy to export to other countries. This is an indication of his high popularity."

Rain is very successful both as an actor and as a singer. His serial drama with Song Hye Gyo, "Full House", enjoyed high viewership ratings of 50% and above in places like China, Taiwan, Phillippines, Singapore, Malaysia etc. In particular, the final episode of the drama achieved a viewership of 64% in Thailand.

Rain's documentary, "KBS Special- Rain, the leap through Asia" is made up of 4 parts, namely, "Asia is now submerged in happy times of Rain", "Rain, his journey to becoming an Asian Star", "A date with singer cum actor, Jeong Jihoon", and "Rain, from Asia to Global" (Rayndrop: All title translations my own, not official).

The documentary shows Rain's scenes of his concert overseas and some of the interesting backstage happenings. It also exhibits his 4 years in the entertainment industry, as well as his secret to success- sweat and tears.

[panda_shine]

Cornrolls.. I actually don't mind that look either. :whistle: I think it looks better with the bandana though^^ :happy:

About the prank clip.. yeah it was so funny watching KSA rambling in the end.. she seemed so happy LOL. But Bi knowing the camera actually never really came across my mind.. When he asked about the hat, I just wondered why he would ask such a question while everyone is like bombarding him with questions hehe. I can't believe I didn't see this clip earlier.. but I guess it's not too late now? lol..

Another recent clip I watched was an interview one.. remember the 'red spaceship' shirt? yeah, he was wearing that shirt on the interview with a Japanese host.. but I had no clue what they were saying.. :oops:

Jessica: Actually, I think it would be great if you can give me the Clubbox link to Sangdoo because I think the BT link is dead. Are the Clubbox files around 2XX MB because that's the file size I want.. it doesn't really matter if it's not English subtitles. Kamshamida in advance!! :happy: Have you found out if rain-usa is official Cloud or not?? ^^

Jerry: Yup, the most recent duet that Rain did was with Japanese singer, AI. He also recorded a song with American artist, Lil Kim but that never got released.. He also recorded with Tyrese but I am not sure what happened to that either (you should ask Jessica hehe).. and we just found out that he'll be recording with yet another American artist, Omarion^^ Stay tuned :excited:

liliceprincess: Giordano is like.. Gap but cheaper^^

Rach: Yeah.. it's :oops: that Giordano doesn't share the same endorsers.. I was part of the Wasabi troop too hahah.

Grace: I received the RainUSA email too regarding the gift. Hopefully JYP will send RainUSA back a message :shifty: I just joined Rain-USA.com and I was able to log-in. After I finished the form, it said something like "Congratulations, you can log in." Do you remember getting that message? Aww.. I am glad you got to enrolled into the Korean class. It sounds like a really fun and interesting class.. the environment and everything.

his girlfriend would be sooo lucky!
Yes, I think so too.. and I really hope that one day, he can find someone who he can share his life with.

Ira: Annyeong! :wave: Good luck and take care!

Hope Bi has recovered from the neck pain! :tongue: He looked so :cry:

I am going to browse around rain-usa right now :happy:

[gracecherry]

jess unnie > ooh, i hopeeee that malaysia would be broadcasting the doc too! though i have it! coz i want to pretend ive never seen it and watch it on tv,so tat maybe my parents can also sorta....hear about the amazing ji hunnie too, i never promote the artiste i like to my mom or she wud think i m crazy or sumthing >_< as for my classes, actually its like that , the major class that i skipped is one of the class that i m officially registered with, so i wouldnt lose it...but the korean class, i m not,so becoz i dont want to wait till my final sem to do language paper...i hope to do it now by trying to be listed in the waiting list...the earlier the better coz, its difficult to get hold of language subjects every sem, simply not enuf classes...argh >< yea....

speaking of the xmas mission clips, yes, seeing how hard he work to try to let ppl know about his concert, it was heart breaking.... but those who went , i think he was really thankful to them all, even though he cant make it to his target. througout the entire clip, i can see that bi is very sad....i gues its bcoz the entire thing is related to his mom...

and also i was re-reading ur concert report...and u said there were something strange coz u werent all hyped up about seeing bi...the few days leading up to the concert? why is tat unnie? but i gues, maybe its becoz u think too much bout it, coz sumtimes we think or anticipate too much of a certain event that we get...ahh watever...kinda feeling.hehe

jess & karen > as for rain-usa.com, i didnt get the congratulation msg, i only got the 'move back' msg, above which were written in korean.i hmmm. here it is '정상적으로 작성하여 주시기 바랍니다. my korean friend told me it means 'fill in properly' or something like tat.

karen > yes the class was great, but if i dont get it this semester i would have to try again nex semester, well...firstly i simply cant wait to learn the language....^^, secondly its always a struggle getting these language classes every semester, so i didnt want to wait till my final sem to squeze into it >< , yea i really hope that bi or JYPE would leave a msg at anywhere, at bi's jype site or at his joyplace hompy about the gifts that rain usa sent !! but i noe that bi and JYP must be super busy rite now, they probably had no time to really pay attention to fan movements rite now that they are discussing about collaborations. lol....yes, whoever gets bi has a bf, i think it must be fate....haha, becoz he is awesome beyond words. well...i m sure, someday he would be able to find someone ... thats wat i wished him in the bday card too,that he can find a wonderful person to share his happiness with.

ira > ooh, u dont hav any perfs of bi on that song? hehe, but his perf of this song in the seoul RD is great enuf huh???

[teardrop]

o quick msg from miss may, she said that she'll be back in full action in aug she's busy w. studies.....and dbsk lol come back soon hunny we all miss ya chingoo!!! :hugz:

jess unnie: i'm at work right now so i'll have a look for the links to the shinhwa clip that i mentioned to u. it's not that funny, prob bc i can't understand what they are saying lol, but the beginning is v. cute and funny :-) o wats wrong w. ur net connection?? how comes it keeps cutting u off??? is it on a wireless router? one of my favorite sad scenes from Sangdoo was when he had to cut Bori's hair.^^^ yes!! that scene i really cried my heart out and my sis was like wtf?!?! and i was like omg!! u can not tell me that ur heart aches when u see that! she looks like a typical girl playing w. her dolls and oppa's behind trying to be strong but omo!!!! :cry: :cry: the rest of the group always make fun of hyesung's beauty^^ hehehe yes this is v. true, esp minwoo i've got a clip where he's just annoying the hell outta hyesung but hyesung just lets him do whatever he wants. o there another clip that u MUST watch if u haven't already. it's a clip where they are all playing games and drinking and eating, and one of the games is a "kissing" game. basically they have a piece of paper and they have to pass it to the next person but they have to pass it by the lips. the 1st round junjin is sucking the paper so that it stays on his lips, but when he passes it onto andy, he just keeps sucking so dongwang hits him on the head and he looks soooo surprised!!! and then then 2nd round when it was heysung's turn to pass it onto eric, eric actually like kissed (the paper was in between) and hyesung slapped him in the face, screamed and got up lol soooo funny!!!! ok that was a little off topic :blush: back to bi, yea i wonder what his character in the pepsi ad is as well, mayb he's the "strong" man??? lol can't think of any thing else, apart from mayb the ring master?? but then wouldn't he need a whip?!?!? lol you get popups from solid07? ^^^ no no, sori guess i should have been clearer :shy: it another site that i go to that has the pop ups. i try and not to visit it as it's a real pain in the ass, i only go there is i can't find what i'm looking for in other forums :blush: aigoo!! is road for rain out in the dl thread??? :shy: haven't visited that thread for aggeeeesss lol i know i said that i would dl stuff from there but well..... been really lazy lol awww those pic caps u posted of r4r aigoo!! he's such a fighter!! honestly he's such a pro and the way he wants to carry on for his fans even though he's in so much pain really shows that there is an appreciation both ways.

grace: ah pool is very simple, well the rules anyways kekeke basically pool is at the beginning a person breaks and if the brake doesn't pot anything in, then both players can hit any ball (spots or stripes) once some 1 pots a ball example me and u are playing and i pot the stripes then i will become stripes and u will be spots. from then onwards i can only hit my balls (stripes) and u can only hit ur (spots) if u hit my ball then that's a foul and i get 2 goes. when u have cleared all u balls then u can pot the black. but u only get one shot on the black, meaning if i foul (normally that would mean u get 2 shots) but as it's the black u don't get that extra shot. and that's pool lol. sori have i confused u even more??? hmmm... wen we meet up i'll take u down to the pool place i go to and i'll teach u properly kekekek :tongue: ah don't worry about ur voice, when i 1st heard my voice it was really high and squeaky so i started to talk with a deep voice, but that only lasted a few seconds lol, your voice sounds different to what every1 else hears as you are hearing ur voice from inside. u get?? hmmm i wouldn't understand if i read what i wrote lol. ok i leave it bc i dunno if u understand, or u know already lol but if u don't just tell me and i'll try to explained better. :shy: i really like tyress' colab w. oppa as well even though it's just a tiny tiny clip. but what's really annoying is that oppa's done a lot of colabs w. american artists (lil kim, 3lw, tyress) but none are being released! even as a digi single!!! :ranting: hmmmm.... u think mayb they're saving all these colabs for his eng album that's gonna drop nxt yr?? also i wonder bout lil' kim’s colab, it got drop bc she went to prison right??? do u think they're release it wen she comes out??

jerry: Hello. Thats all really big welcome ^^^ kekeke ah just making sure u felt welcomed lol ah i didn't get to watch bi on the tv i only saw a 5 sec segment on cnn when they were talking about other artists that was there. it was only when jess was kind enough to upload it for for did i get to see his full performance. if u want that performance i'll be happy to upload it for u :happy: ah so u watched fh 1st is that what got u interested in bi?? have u finished watching fh yet??? if not where bouts are u up to?? u defo need watch his latest drama a love to kill if u like him as an actor, this is a MUST! his performance will absolutely blow u away! when i was watching it forgot the he was "rain" and was completely engrossed with his character and felt that i wasn't watching bi if u get what i mean?? anyways...hmm.... i would have to say it's raining would be my fav album of his as i like almost every song but his 1st and 2nd albums are still very good. my fav songs of his would have to be ak soo (bad guy) escape from the sun and sad tango. lol just realised that i said my fav album is his 3rd and none of my fav song are on the 3rd album lol. anyways what bout urself? What’s ur fav album/song/drama? I hope you don' think I am gay ^^ ah i don't think any of us think ur gay :happy:, just happy/surprised to see a guy liking rain, as an entertainer. it's really cool that u could stop by here and share ur views :-) also if u wanna request any clips i'm sure one of us won't mind uploading it for u or giving u a link where u can get it.

rachelle: He said he heard it so often (on my pc) that he already know the tune to it. ^^ that's soooo funny!! :D so do u think that u can convert him fully to be a bi-er?? or is he just liking the song? ah thx for the article on bbaek-ga Nine years ago, that tall kid with a child-like face^^ can't think of another sentence to describe him soo well!! keke

lilice:awww komawo for the rep point chingoo!! :hugz: that was v sweet of u. o and ur v. welcome w. the st thing so how are u liking st?? did u find his vid on utube yet? if not i don't mind uploading it, honest :happy: oMG you have so much writing for me^^^ lol don't worry u'll get used it. one thing u need to know about me is that my posts are never short! lol just ask every1 here lol even my "short" posts are long lol. once i get started i really don't stop. ah afternoons are good to post here as i spend bout 1/2/3hrs sometimes lol replying back to back logs.... actually i think the reason why my posts are so long is bc i'm too lazy to post every time i visit, i'm like read the post and just reply back tomorrow but when tomorrow comes there's like 10 new posts lol actually it got really bad once lol it was i think in may or so i was mia for like a month and when i came back lol if u look back in thread 6 i had a month of backlogs so my reply filled up like almost the whole page lol (i checked in word and my reply was like 3/3 and half pages lol :sweat:) i'm not japanese but i think grace already cleared u up on that matter (komawo gace :hugz:) soo many of you i kinda get lost who is what ethnicity ^^^ ah don't worry i remember when i 1st got here i couldn't remember ppl's real names so had to look at some of the regulars post so i could know who was whom. but don't worry in time u'll remember every1's name and ethnicity kekeke. i can't really tell if he's improved on his mando or japanese as i don't understand any of it lol, i can just comment on his eng song lol.

minty angel: that's a cute story of how u discovered rain! ah i think i was like u, i thought that he was hansom but not some1 i would be like :drool: over i just liked his song and then hmm..... when did i actually start liking him???? hmmmmm.... u know what?? i really dunno if i see him like that even now lol. o don;t get me wrong i've changed my mind he's no longer hansom he OM GWAD HOT!!!!! lol but i dunno, i guess i would rather have him as a friend then anything else, a really hot friend, but a friend nevertheless lol. :bleh: ah ur fave is ST vid as well?? i love that vid!!! omo omo omo is all i can say kekeke.

Karen:Thankfully, he didn't had any weird outfits,^^^ well there wasn't much of an outfit in the 1st place :rolleyes: lol recently saw this old clip about the Kim Sun Ah yes isn't it funny!! i love the part where he hit the table and was like why isn't my picture bigger!?!?!? lol and the part where KSA was like how can i see him as a younger bro with a body like that?!?!? lol she cracks me up!! I avoid watching k-dramas when I am busy^^^ u have sooo much strength! lol ah i try not to watch it wen i'm busy but i end up watching at least 2 eps per night, but actually i've been really good. instead of watching k-dramas in the busy period, i watch x-man/love letter it's not as long lol. although recently i have seen any dramas that i was addictive to. the last 1 was my girl. but recently just finished watching sweet spy w. denis oh and it was such a let down! denis oh can't act! i think tried too hard, hmm i mean he acted fine when he didn't open his mouth lol that's soo mean but if u ever wana watch it, u'll get what i mean! so i've started watching full house again and also misa at the same time. although my sis has stolen my cds for misa so she watches it wen i'm not home and i'm like aish!!!! lol it's alright though she's only up to ep2 i think?? and i've seen that already. i would have to say i agree w. the bk hair as well!! i love that hair!! i wish he would have it again he looked sooo yummy! i always get a little shock whenever i 1st see him in fh with that full head of hair of his lol. but drama wise i would have to say fh is my fav as it's happy and funny whereas ijuksa is such an emotional rolllercoster for me. i can only rewatch ijsuka in the winter as it has that feel about it. ah thnx fot the ai recommendations i'll go hunt for it now!! :happy:

miss ira: welcome back hunny!!! i forgot that there was another page!! :blush: good luck with ur test! i'm sure u'll ace it like all the others that u did! have faith in urself, i do!! i know u'll be able to get into ur uni! ur a hard worker and u study hard, good luck with everything and remember AJA AJA FIGHTING!!!!! :nunchuks:

part2 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WhvzsgGnoCc)

[minty_angel]

jessica: oh gosh. i want the Road for Rain fotobook and DVD even more now.. aah my parents would NOT let me at all..=(
i hope Rain gets worldwide publicity too=) yes, we have faith in you Rain !

liliceprincess: I liked Sangdoo, but not more than Full House. I mean, it's got more layers to it if u noe what i mean but i like how Full House is light-hearted, Sangdoo is just heart-breaking from the middle to end. i have to sit with a box of tissues:glug: it makes me feel so bad for him. Btw you noe in the ending.. how they get hit by a truck- i had to watch the last episode twice in a row coz i just couldn't believe it. The thing i dont' really get is how the have a baby in the end but they're dead? then i thought maybe it's meant to be a heaven where you have schools and children:unsure:

So i would have to say Full House is my favourite.. that show makes me LAUGH:D

grace: hehe yeah. bi's so cute, i just watched the CNN Talkasia interview with Rain on Youtube and the interviewer was saying how humble she found rain to be.:rolleyes: aww i feel sorry for Bi when he says how lonely he is. He said he would have to give up his career if he was to have a girlfriend or hang out and party with friends often. omigosh he even said he has to meet up with friends in the car sometimes and eat the hamburgers there.

Irina heyy:wave: my name's Monique.

[jessica]

Ira dongseng: aww, i miss you too :hugz: i was checking my folder and found that i have a few WTATS perf, but all are LQ-MQ. i'll start uploading them soon ^^ if you want some HQs perfs, i'll grab some links from bummie's clubbox for you. do you want to create a clubbox account? if you have one, you can access id & pw protected boxes and also earn mileage points for quick DLs ^^

karen: the clubboxes i know that has Sangdoo are MQs or HQs. can you DL from megaupload? if you can, hop over to the DL thread. i'm going to update the links so all of them should work ^^ i was looking around JYPE and Bi's homepage, but couldnt find any notice about Cloud USA. if we're in the fan club, the webmaster would be asking for a membership fee sooner or later, so we'd just have to wait and see :sweat: that interview clip is pretty recent. i loved that interview so much that i subbed it when i saw the translation! i'll be posting the clip up. here's the soft subs --> click (http://www.sendspace.com/file/lg2bxh). or, if you prefer the full transcript --> click (http://www.sendspace.com/file/bcvqo5)

grace: you should ask all your friends to watch the documentary too and boost up the rating! was your mom impressed with Ji Hunnie's acting in FH? she might watch it with you ^^ oh, i see *crosses fingers that you'd be accepted to the korean class this semester*
you read my report again? :shy: you might be right...and it was my first concert and meeting up with his fans i met online, so i didn't know what to expect. i was more nervous than excited ^^;
about the registration, did you fill out all the info? maybe the username you chose was taken so you have to choose another one?

teardrop: i'm glad May is coming back soon. this thread doesn't feel the same without the regulars here :hugz: thanks for the links! *waits for the stream to start* from the title of the clip, i'm sure i didn't watch it. yes, i'm using a wireless router. maybe that's the reason why i keep getting cut off. i don't know how these things work @_@
i do have the "kissing" game clip and it was one of my favorites! i have the full version of it and recently read the translation too :D they are always so silly <3
oh, Bi's character should be the knife thrower. can't wait to see that CF! i'm sure many Jolin antis would want to see her as the target :rolleyes:
i don't think his fans will upload the Road for Rain DVD. they want others to support his work, but non fans who get a hold of the it might upload. aigoo.. you need to check out the DL thread frequently for new clips! i'm going to post the interview clip that Karen mentioned in the previous post. it's a very good interview and i subbed it, so go DL it! =P seems like your posts are getting longer :D :wacko:

monique: aww =( maybe you can buy it later on when your parents don't know? :whistle: the ending to Sangdoo is up to your imagination. they did die at the end and the scene we see of them living a happy life together could be a fabrication projected to the audience to see that they are finally at peace together in an afterlife (since they died in each other's arms) :cry:

[liliceprincess]

:shock: OMG! rain and se7en in the US i am going to die~ and faint ahha cause its like two of my hottest korean singers that i love is in the US somewhere = = and in LA omg i really wonder err >> ill be in california again in august ahha so maybe i will see them or even have a clue?

gracecherry: ooohh my >< really? wow i think rain would definitely remember something like that i mean its a day that he was challenged to something so hard and yet at the same time something that would be hard and yet interesting. but i know if i was in his position i would go insane and panick a whole lot. aww its so sad that it has to be that way i mean to have a day that is exactly the same as his mother's death i would be very upset to it. hmm well jay's LV was years ago >< and he wasnt really that popular back then at least i know in las vegas but i know that there wasnt as much popularity like the one he has in the LA shrine concert lol aww you are so lucky to have gotten a chance to see jay live T_T as for me, i havent gotten any chances yet or ever. lol that LA one i went to LA one day later after his concert T_T it was soo sad that i couldnt go anyways. aww i hope you do get to see rain live one day..you would so have to tell us all the detail! =D


jessica: yea it has been said that his first LV concert wasnt as big as a hit as the one definitely in the LA one that was for the incomparable. but than again LV is a tough crowd for internationals at times and its just like asians are more here now then they have ever been before. ahah yea i know its like they cants work for a company forever = = that would be so lucky and so insanity to have the same person over and over..but hey if it was rain i wont complain for some time lol ahaha yea icannot wait to see the pictures that are coming up for it. ^^
how can we not admire him?
ahha i soo agree with you on that ^^

ira: hey my lovely dker! aww i miss ya too! and hope you have fun and hope everything is okey! you should come in here more oftne =)

panda_shine:; ahah that is awesome way of what giordiano is but i like how its sounds lol pricey but yet not too pricey that we cannot afford it

teardrop:: aww no problem for the rep point. you deserve it! cause of all your help and then uploading the song and all for me ^^ ooo i loved the song and the MV was soo soo sad! i was like omg i finally understand why you all like it so much cause its definitely something that i would say that it was very sad and everything. ahha yea i know what you mean i was like lazy a few days and then its like my consequence is a ton of missing and backlogs lol it is definitely insanity but i think its all well worth it and all .lol wow ahha yea i can take up to hours just to write on this post and i definitely know you have the longest post ever everytime ahah i have seen it from the times i have been in here till now you never have short post and its nice cause its lik all the mods and all say quality better than quanitity ^^ which in many ways is soo true. ahha yea its hard to remember everything about everybody for now btu i know i will get used to it in time =D hmm yea this place definitely has its ups and downs on posting i mean sometimes rarely any and sometimes it slike a ton but with the post per day in here its like speed of light lol

monique:: ahah yea i know what you mean but then again in sangdoo in the beginning i thought it was funny as for full house was but then again full house had this drama just like sangdoo hmm for me im not quite sure what i would say is my favorite for now lol i think they both havee their good and their bads to it ahah i dont really get it either maybe when i see it again i will still waiting for ppl to uplaod video on the youtube for me =D

Latest news of Rain (low-key news?)

Ch to Eng: Rayndrop

The final 10 days of June was spent in Seoul and Pusan filming his movie, his CF and recording his Japanese album. As we step into July, Rain is currently in the US. When he returns, his tentative schedule includes filming of the movie which has been delayed because of heavy rainpour. He'll also be going into the final stage of his Japanese album recording and at the same time, commencing the preparation for his next concert tour. In the line waiting are the recording for his Korean album and the filming of his CF. Even when the filming of his movie concludes, a tight schedule with no rest awaits Rain.

Dear Clouds in Japan, although Rain has been running a very tight schedule, but he is still managing his health well, so he is energetic. Please do not worry. Please anticipate his Japanese single and album. From now on, please support Rain who is going full speed ahead!

jess unnie >ahh, by tmrw i would know if i DO get the korean class or not, so its a battle tmrw, aja aja!!but, oh for the rain-usa.com site, i did fill in every tab...i duno why they keep rejecting me>< , i did checked the ID too and it says i can use it.hmm, and yes, its quite confusing for me now,coz, it says that that site is the official cloud usa site, but they dont require member fees to join...so hmm?? *blur*btw, i gues i understand what u meant by being more nervous than excited,coz meeting my net pal in HK and goin for jay's concert together was such an impossible thing to me...and it did happen, i remember i was feeling a little numb~~ hehe. as for me,its jus like u...i dont really hav a friend who is into bi the way anyone of us here are, i can gush about him with one of my close fren tho, but she isnt a real fan so i noe my limits when i gush about him.>< so i dont noe who to inform to get hold of the documentary if the tv stations really air it, i can only make sure i watch every second of it...lol. and ommo.....bi is in LA and he posted his pic...so tat means, he had us on their mind ? ehhe, i always take it as an indication of him thinking of his fans whenever he uploads a pic.ahhh, i just commented at his hompy.lol.

lilice > oh i understand how frustrating u feel about missing his concert by a day...ahh...lets just hope that we all have chances to catch jay in concert again in the future.heeh.actually i saw jay twice, once in the concert,and the other time is, more upclose, ^^ coz i won some sorta initial d fanmeeting contest,and i was lucky that, i was chosen to be presented prizes by jay, and i was standing like rite nex to him...he is such a shyyyy guy.lol.and i m taller than him...his expression was quite...hmm. cute.esp when he smiles.*shyly* haah. anyways, if...i were standing nex to bi !! i think, i probably would stay rooted...coz my head may not think properly.haha.yes, i understand what u mean by, is us being in his situation we most probably cant take it. tats y i keep saying that i really admire him for his determination, its almost crazy...even the commentator in the clip describes his determination as some sorta devotion.awww...that clip is really gloomy and sad, its good to see our bi smiling so much more these days....

monique >oh the CNN interview!! i just rewatched too. well, yes, its one of the good interviews...and yes, all the things he said, he jus shows so much maturity in his answers, when his age, is jus 24.ahhhh~ ive heard much of wat he says about a gf , he has said that it isnt fair to hav one now,coz he wudnt hav time for her. and he says he likes to do simple things, like....laying on the grass and having her read books to him. things like tat, AWWWWW. thats soo sweet....i jus love the way he thinks and his thoughts~ and besides that, i love his CNN interview outfit tooooo....and the hairstyle.^^, he mentions about how so many other ppl out there has a better body than his,can dance n sing better than him...but its all about being really sincere in giving what he has that has won him so much support, i think its true too.u noe when lorraine hanh was saying u r so humble, rain,its not becoz of ur good looks? hheehe, he was like 'yea yea....' its so funny how ppl call him pretty boy now, when back then, agencies rejected him for how not good his looks are.kakkaka.i heard somewhere...that, someone even said that he is too tall to be a dancer, usually dancers dont look good dancing if they are that well build.haha.

teardrop > annyong.well, i duno i jus heard my own voice when i did recording once,and its really unlike me.ahhaa. anyways.i m a slowwww learner when it comes to all this sporty stuff , so yessss, u shall teach me when we meet.hahahah, and i hope i wont shame myself badly,^^ yesssss, its so annoying why not even one of the collabs came out! and i totally love the tyresse one....i like the r&b feel of it... and he was dressed so cute when he was recording it.the polka dot shirt and the beanie!hmm....

[xiaohei88]

hi people.. seeing that all rain lovers are here.. i thought of joining in the fun too!!!

[gracecherry]

xiaohei88 > hi hi, welcome, wow...i jus saw u at the ijuksa thread!! well...yes, this thread is all of rain fans, so if u wana learn more about who he is, aside from being kang bok gu, do drop by often,lol. when u hear his music and see the way he dances....you would noe that this guy is more than jus talent.hahaha.feel free to tell us ur name too? coz our jess unnie here makes the thread very comfy by calling our real names, btw, unnie means 'elder sister' ^^

[jessica]

Wendy: se7en's going to stay in the US for 3 months so you'll have a better chance at running into him, whereas Bi will only be there for 5 days. good luck with your se7en hunting in Aug!

grace: ooh, you went to the concert with Jay fans you met over the net too?! were they jcnetters? i think you should know how it feels to finally see the artist you admire since you saw Jay and even touched him. you don't know how many of us would love to be in your place that time =P i don't have friends who are interested in the same artists as i am as well. i depend heavily on the web and forums. i'm sure an informative Bi'er will post up the schedule when the documentary airs ^^ i didn't expect him to post anything when he's here for business. it was sweet of him to leave that msg :love: hehe, are you spamming his hompy again? :shifty:
did you read that transcript i uploaded in the previous post? if not, you can also read it here (http://s11.invisionfree.com/Rain_USA/index.php?showtopic=866&view=findpost&p=3808137). that was the interview where he was wearing the bleeding bull/red spaceship t-shirt over a flanel long sleeve shirt ^^

xiaohei: welcome aboard! :-) why don't you tell us a little about youself and how you found out about Bi ^^

a friend of a fan was on the same flight as him when he came to the US. judging from the some of the words she used, she must be young :sweat: it's interesting to know that he still prefers to sit in business class rather than first class :D oori Ji Hunnie is too modest :love:

Someone was on the same flight as Rain yesterday (10/7)

Credit to: Inbi FR;rainasia
From: Sexy Bi

** someone I know was on the same flight as Bi yesterday. This is her info **

he was wearing sunglasses and a hat and this 19 different color flanal which was HIDEOUS. he was sitting next to a man who looked to be his manager or some guy who was there to hold his hand while little fob girls went crazy in the hallway just behind him. (SO annoying) he sat in business class but he sat in the very back. i dont think it was firstclass. maybe he was being modest. hahaha but his clothes were ugly. he was really tall. he was kind of cute except his clothes. i went into the bathroom right behind him and i put my camera in my pocket with the lens out and i went to the first class parallel to where he was to ask the pilot guy who was standing there where the bathroom was. (the whol etime i was recording in my pocket) he told me not to come into first class and told me to go to the bathrrom in the back. what a twit. and then i went and i checked my camera and my battery went out and i checked my 'play' thing and there was only a dark 3 second video of darkness. sorry i failed you haha but it was fun

this is how we were sitting

BI + guy next to him

BAAAAAAAAAAAATHROOM HALL

--ROW OF 2 PEOPLE-
--ROW OF 2 PEOPLE-
--ROW OF 2 PEOPLE-
--ROW OF 2 PEOPLE-
-ME & this ugly asian guy-

later in the flight i switched seats so i could sit with my friends.

but my sisters & my parents saw him coming out of the airport with his hat out
nobody even followed him, or tried to take a picture of him

I thought I'll make a post before I get far behind again :sweat:

Grace: Are you able to log in to rain-usa.com now? I remember the CNN interview.. and the outfit and hair hehe. The hair was sort of like Bok-Gu hair style. :angel:

teardrop: Oh Lil Kim was just released from prison about 2? weeks ago.. so I am not sure if they'll release it.. probably not..?? It seems like Bi always collab with African-American artists (not in a racist way).. Heh, the only dramas I can control myself is when I watch TVB (HK) dramas.. :oops:

Jessica: Oops I didn't know that the DL thread has the links to the series :tongue: . It's perfect too because it's in English subtitles and the files are even smaller than my .rmvb files!! Thanks for the translations too.. I just downloaded the text file because I don't really know how to work the soft subs.. I like the part when he said "Soo desu ne" about the shoulders hehe.. The fan is so lucky to be on the same flight as him .. the fan keeps commenting on his clothes lol. I am so curious if it was that bad.. :rolleyes:

Hi xiaohei88! :wave:

[gracecherry]

jess unnie > thx for the flight news,haha, that fan's friend ISNT a fan i gues, she was probably jus hype up for the fact that it is RAIN, and it wud be great if she can filmed him or anything,but not that she really...likes ji hun.^^ but its a cute encounter though. hmm,yea, i wonder what he is wearing that is THAT bad too^^ ,since it is bi who is wearing it, and if its tat bad, then the it must be bad.kakaaka.but i thought that his personal dressing is pretty simple and casual...anyways, nope unnie,i havent been spamming his hompy, i m just merely an enthusiastic fan who hopes he would notice my posts.lol.^^ hahaha *self defensing*, and yes, i m very happy that i had the chance to meet jay upclose. well, the feeling is very....special, its like the saturated excitement. that it goes numb, i went to the concert with just a fan who is someone i met before i came to jcn. ehhehe, and she is a jcnetter tooo~ she is a reallllly niceeee unnie.she paid for my concert tic in advance,and she walked me back to my hotel after the concert, she treated me dinner before we go for the concert,and she even refuse to accept it when i pay....for the tic!! ahh,but of coz i insist.it was such a memorable experience, of meeting someone i got to know online, and it was from then i belive that meeting friends online, can be realll friends. and the same goes, if i can ever meet you, ira, jenna ,karen, rachelle,teardrop and go for bi's concert, i think i wouldnt noe how to feel.haha.its jus too happpy.

ahh,se7en is in the US too? do u think its possible they may plan to get into the market together? ahhaaha.like have some sorta collab thats gives really cool sparks.^^ it wud be not a bad idea too.

ahh, i jus read the transcript! i dun hav that clip, did u send to ira the version u subbed?? ommo,its such a cuteee int, i mean when he said he woud bring his gf to the hotspring! jus how romantic n sweet is this guy, omg.

karen >nope i stil cant reg for the site>< and yes it was u...who made me must watch the CNN int,coz u post caps of it,and i totally love the suit and the image,i even said sumthing like the suit looks like the sat tango cover.hahaha. but he was really nice looking in that int...or *shyly* or whenever was he not nice looking? hahaaha.

[jessica]

karen: what version have you been watching? .rmvb files are usually chinese subbed, aren't they? ^^; to view soft subs, you either DL vobsub and play the clip on media classic player, or DL BS Player. it's a must to DL either one if you watch lots of shows with soft subs!
i liked that part where the host asked about his buffed up body too. he looked embarrassed when he answered :D :love:

i don't think that person who was on the same flight as him was his fan. her report didn't show any signs of excitement of seeing him :tongue: i wish there were fans who welcomed him back to the US. i guess nobody had any insider info this time =(

did you watch the Pepsi CF news clip yet?! :excited:

[gracecherry]

JESS UNNIE > O M G, i just got my korean classss!!! awww, i m soooo happpppy! well, the process was really stupid though, i woke up and stand by on the computer at 8.45 to get ready for 9 which was when they said they wud open up the online registration again,since the lecturer agrees to accept like 10 more studs! but i click and clicked and it was like a million times, i click every 3 mins....from 9 to now, 10.18...and ommo,i cant belive i finally got in!!i almost want to give up and get to my nex class, since ive missed one important class aredy,jus to sit infront of the computer and click! ahhh, its such a relief.alrites....i better get goin, tata.i m DLing the clip u sub from rain usa,its till 17% now,but i gues i cant complete it,since ive got to go uni now.awww....i'll email ira the link then...
yes, he was totally cute when the host mentioned why his shoulder seemed to b broader? ahah, and also, i rewatch the king brunch clip ytd and i stil laugh hysterically like him when he laughed at ai's tonchuseiyo.lol

[jessica]

grace: i missed your post ^^; YAY! i'm so happy for you! now we can learn off of you :D yes, i don't think that person who sighted him was a fan also. there are times when he wear outrageous patterns and colors, but he still manages pull it off. lol. if you post a lot in his hompy, he might notice you :shifty:
aww, the friend you met online was so generous and nice. there are times when i felt a stronger bond with friends i meet online because we share more common interest. i don't know where i'd be without all of you here gushing with me :hugz: i did send the clip to Ira the last time we had a 3-way chat. she only needs to DL the soft sub so she can burn it together ^^ you'll love the interview too. he looked so cute and his smiles were so sweet :love:

the chances of a Se7en and Bi collab won't be high since they're trying to break into the US market at the same time ><

[liliceprincess]

hey everyone lol i have to agree with panda_shine i am going to write a post so that i will not get too lost in this thread again

:welcome: xiaohei88 yay! a new person hope you enjoy it in here i know i have. hmm what made you interesting in rain?

Gracecherry: btw you can just call me wendy =) cause i have noticed everyone has really gotten tired of typing my name out ahah but mm i think the only reason i chose that as my sn was because it was the same as my email address lol anyways back to replying to you =D Yea i was so upset that i didnt get to go and i was going to be in california just a day later T_T but its okay, there shall be many more chances that i get to see him in concert. Ohh my! you are so lucky! i mean i would be so happy to just get to see him in concert but right next to him aww thats so lucky and i am happy for you^^ it must have been some fun from that. yea jay i can just see from his pictures that he is truly a shy person in the inside and really outside too and i think that is so adorable Yea ahah i think if it was bi i would *faint* or just i dunno lol think from my head what to say and try to impress him and then stump myself. i would be so nervous and embarrassed if i do anything weird in from of him i mean really in front of any star lol. Yeap, from what you have told me from the description of it all, i am just like wow this is the rain that we see today really on top of the world music industry. I definitely have to agree with you that rain really has a lot of determination for what he does and a kind of manner that is not found in too many stars today making him unique in a really good way.

ahh,se7en is in the US too? do u think its possible they may plan to get into the market together? ahhaaha.like have some sorta collab thats gives really cool sparks.^^ it wud be not a bad idea too.

i think that would be a good idea but then again i dont think so because at the same time , se7en has his promotions right now and then Rain has a schedule that is packed too >< But i definitely think that if they ever collaborated like Kangta and Vanness it would make them a great hit two hot korean stars in one ^^ i dream of that day lol

Wendy: se7en's going to stay in the US for 3 months so you'll have a better chance at running into him, whereas Bi will only be there for 5 days. good luck with your se7en hunting in Aug!

jessica:: aww thanks ^^ i wish i can meet one of them just once and then i will be truly jsut wowed from it. I dunno never really seen a famous person in front of me ever = = i am not allowed to go to concerts and all. but maybe later on i could. What concerts have you been to? have you ever met any stars up close? aww too bad rain is only here for a couple of days it =(

he still prefers to sit in business class rather than first class

aww! i thin ktaht is really cute and just very interesting but at the same time for the girl that is soo lucky! i mean to ever have a chance to do something like that but i think its a good thing because he is living like us in some ways or just trying to have stable and yet normal life ^^ i think thats really cute.

Well i think that is enough for today its getting late >< and here is my last stop as usual =)

[xiaohei88]

Yes hi ppl... i love this jay-chou.net forum.. its so cool cause i make new friends everyday..

[gracecherry]

jess unnie > hehe, yes i m sooo happy that i got the class, coz it was really difficult to get in!! u know what , i m totally into this whole korean thingy, my friends give me weird wishes like 'i hope u meet the korean guy of ur dreams' ahahaha, wic i was like *huh?* anyways, i duno about the silly things in my head, i really thought of heading to korea for some sorta further development, like maybe after my studies. i duno, realy vague stuff.but...watever. yea.okies, i wud anticipate from ira then, and and, becoz of xiaohei88 i suddenly has the feeling to watch those ijuksa NGs, and it made me laugh so badly unnie, u noe the part where SMA pinches his cheeks? but becoz his skin was TOOO smooth, haaha she cant do it properly, aigooo, the NGs are soo funny .... the part where he was taking the cigarette from the box after shower in the room, and end up messing it up, and he gave the warning sign, it made me laugh again. anyways. of coz, stil what i blushed at is the making of the *ahem* scene. lol...okie,i better not talk bout it here.

oh chongmal? if i post often he may notice me? well, i think sooo many other members repost n repost, but i dont, i jus post once for a pic.hehe, i wonder has he seen wat rain usa sent to him yet.aww.

yea the unnie i met online was a realy nice gurl if not becoz of her, i wouldnt hav got the tic coz i only confirmed it like 4-5 days before the concerts, the tics were supposedly finished long ago i dont noe how she got it but she has connections or sumthing^^, and me tooo jess unnie, i feel a stronger bond with a few of regulars here, its all about our range of interests and passion.awww. and sincerely, i would be so truly happy if i ever get to meet any of u one day.

wendy > oh yes, meeting jay was really an experience i wouldnt forget too. hehe, yes...it was jus mere luck tat i got chosen to meet him, and yes, theres some sorta special feeling whenever u see someone u admire and only seen on computer lol.most of the time, i act really cool when i m in front of those stars, i m jus the kind who wouldnt go yelling and crazy,though i may be on the inside! ahaha. if i ever see bi, i would be jus like the fan who met him at the internet cafe, u read that fan experience? i would pretend i hav no idea who he is.lol.hahaah^^ yes, our rain is so popular ,yet he is truly sincere and humble, and his success today is alot becoz of his devotion to the promise he made to his mom. hehhee...yea, though i m not much of a seven fan,but i do hope along with bi he could develop in the US market too ^^

xiaohei88 > oh u r from sg? same as rachelle unnie.^^ i m like u too, i was a total jay fan, at first and i thought, no one cud really enter anymore,coz i dont hav space,but now....its not the case anymore.hahaa.....rain is simply amazingggg....

[xiaohei88]

really?.. rachelle unnie also too?.. mind if i call you guys by unnie no?.. okay..

jessica unni.. i noticed your banner.. is Rain having an asian tour?.. will singapore be his destination if he is to do so?

and yeah.. can anyone help me find a korean name?..haha

[panda_shine]

I just read the news from Oriental Daily regarding the photoshoot of the Pepsi.. They said that "Bi is actually allergic to things that are made out of gold and at first, his manager opposed to having those gold sparkles on his chest but Bi kept insisting. The photoshoot process lasted 10 minutes and luckily, Bi didn't had any side effects." The article also mentioned how "Bi is really excited and even inputed ideas regarding hair styling and makeup. During the meeting, he even brought along lots of useful research information. Very professonal."

I only translated the main parts so I didn't use the quote function.. ^^;;

Grace: Hehe.. I leave messages at Bi's homepy too^^ but I always keep it short because I don't know if he understands. I am glad you got into the Korean class!! You can teach us something hehe. Aigoo.. I don't think I've watched those IJUKSA NG scenes you mentioned?! especially the pinching cheek and cigarette part?! Me too.. I would be those fan that might go up and ask for autograph/picture.:shy:

Jessica: I haven't started watching Sangdoo but I did watch a bit of epi 1 along time ago^^ Yeah, the versions I usually watch of k-dramas are Chinese subs because I didn't know English subs were offered in such small file size. Oh yes, I just saw the Pepsi CF news clip!!! And I love the pictures posted at the picture thread too.. the first picture *deep breath*

xiaohei88: Are you enjoying A Love To Kill so far?? :brows: How do you like Rain's (Bok-Gu) style in it? Oh, do you have your name in Chinese? Because I can try to help you figure out your Korean name..^^

[jessica]

Wendy: i'd be too nervous to react or say anything if i'm in front of a star i like also. after the first night of the concert, i went to ktown to stalk Bi. he came a little later and when he emerged from his car, my mind went blank. it took me a split second to recognize him in street clothes and he had his head down. i couldn't believe he was only standing a few feet away from me and there weren't many bodyguards surrounding him so i had a full view of his whole body. he stood there for a few second before his guards escorted him into the restuarant. we should've reserved seats before he came because we weren't allowed to go up afterwards. i think the manager there said the seats were full =/ but we weren't sure exactly which restuarant he'd eat in, so we just waited outside. i don't have concert going experience like some of the members here. i've been to the Choosuk Fesitval 3 years ago and Bi's NY concert this year. the first one was free and it was set in the outdoor. many famous korean singers came, but i was still new to kpop so i didn't know a majority who attended >< i haven't met any of them, but watching their performances impressed me so much. i've became a fan of kpop then. it helped that i had a korean channel during that time so i was exposed to their culture and music and my interest grew rapidly. may the hallyu never end :D
i just noticed how young you are. no wonder you're not allowed to go to concerts :tongue: maybe your parents will be more lenient when you are older ^^

xiaohei: i agree. JC.net is the friendliest forum i've ever joined ^^ so you're a fan of his acting first? don't worry, i won't utter a word about the ending to IJUKSA. i never liked giving away spoilers because it ruins the suspense. there aren't many who loved this drama due to it's heavy plot, and only fans of him and/or his acting would continue watching. i'm so happy that you enjoy it so much! you MUST watch his debut drama Sangdoo, Let's Go to School afterwards if you love his acting. you'd be blown away by how natural and convincing he was. have you listened to any of his albums yet?
when i became a fan of Jay, i thought that there wouldn't be another artist that i'd admire so much. Bi's story to success has swept me away. there's nothing wrong wtih loving more than one artist, hehe. yes, Rachelle is also from SG. maybe you girls can go to his next concert together! SG was mentioned as one of the countries he'll be touring :-)

grace: LOL. your friend is so cute! she knows you so well, kekeke :brows: are there more female students in that class than male? it's not a silly thought if you want to continue your studies overseas. you'd have to prepare youself though. there are so many things you'll have to adjust to ^^;
i haven't re-watched those IJUSA NGs yet >< i'll do that when i plan to have another go with the drama. i think SMA was afraid to injure him so she was kind of tentative when she had to hit him, unlike ISJ in MISA. there was a scene where she was smacking SJS's arms repeatedly and she hit him quite hard and after the director said cut, he bent down in pain and she felt so embarrassed and sorry :D ooo, i know which scene you're referring to that makes you blush :shifty: we had a long analysis of it a while ago :laughing:
aww, i'll be very happy to meet you one day too :hugz: all of the Bi'ers here are so sweet and nice :huglove:

karen: thanks for translating :hugz: he's always so professional about his work and takes it so seriously. let me know when you'll start Sangdoo, so i can watch it along with you ^_^ there are more popular kdramas that are hardsubbed and converted to around 200MB (and some kmovies) here (http://kpopper.com/forums/kpopper-cinema/), but you have to join the forum first to DL.
i'm anticipating for the Pepsi CF to come out! it should be soon because i remember reading that it'll air after World Cup is over. oh, you know how to convert chinese names into Korean? :excited:

latest news about his Japanese single and album -->

Rain 3rd Japan Single and album are postponed.
3rd Japan Single "Move on " will be released on Sept. 6th
Japan Album will be released on Sept. 13th

[ellen_nver_falz]

omg... I have been gone for centuries! :oops: I hope you guys are all doing well. :wave: Actually today I came here because I need a little help. :shy: I think this is the wrong place to ask this question, but I think some of you guys might be able to help me out, in translating a Korean phrase. :sweat:

http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b324/ellen_site/kwords.jpg

So someone please help me! Thank you in advance.

[xiaohei88]

Unnie Jessica are you serious that he'scoming here?.. oh my god... lets go together shall we?....i have not finished watching the show..left with 2 more episodes..and im watching it at youtube.com but since the uploading was very pathetic.. i told myself to buy it and watch the last 2 episode there then..


Panda Shine im actually a malay....but not at heart.. haha.. im more of chinese + korean....haha..i want a korean name that represents me..

if i were to compare his style in Full House and A love To kill... A love to kill its the pick... cause its so bad and dangerous... but i do like the Young Jae style cause.. he dress well.. metrosexual guys are good too..


and yes.. how rude of me.. my name is Hafizah... pls call me fizah or hei-hei:oops:

[gracecherry]

jess unnie > i was having this thought of making a RAIN mv, and i was quite excited thinking of it last nite,so today i sat down on my bed and started making one, well, it may seem quite amateur though, i havent been using wm movie maker for a long time, so ...hehee, but, i m surprise that i actually felt touched watching the video i made after i finalized it.aww, i would put up at bi's DL thread later, but for now.....i'll put it below.ahhh, yes its so funny how 'caring' SMA was with him, even bi responded in a way like 'oh, ottokehyo...' he was sooo funny la....i wouldnt feel nice to pinch him a truly hard way too, coz look at his face and...ahh~ another FUNNNNY part was where....kim sarang was suppose to be badly pissed off wif him,and he came into the shop, went near to the heater and started saying somethings in a funny way, and his expression was soo like..innocent and cute.and kim sarang cant resist but laughed out instead, and bi was like, "huh?" u noe that part?? aigoooo. i bet most of the ppl who worked for or with him, would find him cute! besides the time when he is dead serious working.hmmm.^^ and of coz the *ahem* part....well, i can only say that perhaps bi was immersing his role as BG too well, and what BG at the beach was very BOLD, of coz.^^ hahahahhaa.but its so obvious also that ES was mesmerized with his BOLD actions,ahaha.

yes, so i look forward to meeting u one day! and yes there were more gurls than guys in the korean class.ehehee. now i only noe some basic phrases of introductions, i gues i would only learn more when the teachers starts teaching the more complex forms of expressions and the hangul writing.ehhe, yes, if by then, i cud understand anything of wat bi said in any clip, i would sure let u guys noe! hhaha.

oooh, i see ur the mod for DL thread in rain usa?? ^^ unnie,may i ask where do i post fan made mvs? in the bi DL thread or in the misc DL thread? ^^


everyone > hi hi, i made a bi mv titled 'Behind the smiles of RAIN'--->http://www.sendspace.com/file/c7gsrf

hope you guys could DL and feel free to comment about it after watching. these past few days i was just feeling very touched over and over again, by the things bi went thru, and i was 'inspired' to make a short and simple mv...lol. it has a piano solo music as background, and the MV portrays the more personal side of bi rather than his glorious and glamourous time on stage.

xiaohei 88 > hi i gues, u can call ppl unnie here.ehhe, but its only for gurls who are elder..heehe.and oh yes, like jess said, bi is having his world tour, and it will include sg and msia! hahah,excited.oh u are malay? oh...its very rare to have malay bi fans.aside from fans in indonesia.^^ anyways...i understand what u mean not at heart, so i gues that means...u are the modern type then.ahahah.

karen > ommo. how come u didnt DL those ngs? ehehe. u MUST watch them. there are about 6 of them.u cant imagine how funny was the pinching cheek scene, SMA was suppose to pinch his cheek but bcoz his skin was too smooth...she can get hold of the pinch,if u get wat i mean,and it slided.haahah.and bi was like holding in his laughter, after pinching cheek she was suppose to hit him hard on his head as BG's fastened her seat belt, and when she hit, it was quite hard,there was a 'knock' sound...and SMA was ommo. mianheyo...and she hugged bi's head.lol. ahhh,she is soo cute too.oh bi is sooo professional. till now, i have never heard of anyone who said he isnt good to work with or complain him of being not cooperative etc etc. aigoo.

ellen > hi hi, long time no seee...too bad my korean is still at very beginner's level.unable to help u translate.

[sweep]

hiyee!!
Thanks guys for the comfort! :hugz:
xiaohei88:wave:
ellen_nver_falz, welcome back.:happy: I keep popping in myself! Sorry I don't know Korean.
minty_angel My name is Sandy.
Rain and Se7en in the US!:excited: That's why people in the Se7en thread (soompi or here) mentioned that they will miss Se7en.
I thought I could watch Which star are you from in youtube. It only has 1 epi. Am I right or I didn't not search that well?
Thank you for the news!!

[jessica]

ellen: hi there ^^ i only know a few words to that phrase, but not it's meaning... something about my angel ramyeon? :sweat:

hei-hei: your name is very unique ^^ i've never heard of Hafizah before. i'll just call you hei-hei since it's easier for me to remember =P if you plan on going to the concert, you should start saving up now. the tickets will most likely be pricey >< i don't live in Asia so i'll be missing this tour :depresse: i pray that he'll extend his tour to America next year. i don't like watching widescreen videos on youtube either because the image is usually compressed to fit into the 4:3 ratio screen :oops: since you're waiting to watch the last 2 episodes, you should start watching Sangdoo now ^^

OMO GRACE! :excited: i just watched your MV and i loved it! the song, msg and scenes all match perfectly with the mood. aigoo, i'm so touched :cry: you are 100% correct about the tears behind those bright smiles :cry: i never felt motivated to do these things because i'm not creative ><; if it wasn't for the JC.net games i would never make one, but it was a fun experience. do you have problem playing it on wmp? it only plays in media player classic for me :sweat: you can post your MV in the DL thread at rain_usa :-) you should share with more Bi'ers and post it in all his forums too!
hehe, i remember that part of the NG. another funny one was when he was stuffing his mouth with buns. they messed up the dialogue a few times and he had to keep eating those buns until they got their part right :D

i finally read the incomplete transcript to Road for Rain. i'm at a lost for words again. quotes May, "he is amazing!" i missed a chapter in the 2nd DVD. i'll try to look for it on soompi and send it to you afterwards. if there will be updates later on, i'll send you the rest too. anybody who doesn't have access to soompi and/or don't follow the Bi thread and is interested in the transcript, let me know and i'll PM you. i'm not suppose to post it anywhere else, so this is the only way i can share ^^;

sandy: welcome back :hugz: because of the recent crackdown on youtube, there aren't many users who would upload copyrighted materials. a lot of media have been either removed by the user or their accounts have been suspended by the admins. you might have to DL if you want to watch more :oops:
you can also watch Kdramas on Arirang or you can stream live programs from Korea. let me know if you want the links ^^

they mentioned about his 42-inch chest again :rolleyes:

Rain, 42-inch chest emerge winner over Khoo. Perfect body without an extra inch of fats.
13 July 2006, Mingpao
Journalist Kui You Fang reports
Credit: biwithrain.com

Ch to Eng: Rayndrop

Rain, with 42-inch chest, is chosen "Artiste with the Perfect Body"

Popular Korean artiste, Rain, is indeed deserving of appointed title "Artiste with Perfect Body" by a Taiwanese Magazine. Having shown his chest several times, fans still go crazy over the sight of it. Fans feel that his dance moves are dynamic, and he doesn't have one inch of extra fat on him- definitely the best model of a perfect body.

Rain poses for a Pepsi Ad and bares his chest with another muscular artiste Louis Khoo. However, under comparison, Rain's 42-inch chest definitely has the upper-hand. Both play members in a circus in the ad. Rain is the dagger-thrower, while Khoo is the fire-eater. The entire crew flew in to Korea for Rain, and during the first production meeting for the ad, Rain actually turned up in person and contributed a lot of ideas!

Pure silver make-up for the advertisement

As Rain is sensitive to metallic materials, his manager has objected to putting metallic make-up on his body. But Rain likes the concept very much, and personally convinced his agency. He experimented by sticking 18 different metals on his body, and all the metal pieces seen on his body (in the picture) are pure silver. Rain said that after seeing the final product of the advertisement with Jolin, Edison and Louis, he thinks the advertisment is very cool indeed!

Louise eats pears to keep fit

Louis revealed his deepest impression was the non-stop eating of pears to maintain his figure. He said, "I've been eating pears these few days to lose weight!" Louis feels that his image is sexier that that of Jolin, and he had to put on metallic colours and a mask. Even his mum was shocked!

[panda_shine]

oo.. so Bi was a dagger-thrower in the Pepsi ad..!! I didn't think of that but I didn't really wonder either hehe. :shy:

Jessica: Thanks for the link! :excited: You made my life so much better lol.. :D I've been looking for "Save the Last Dance For Me" and they have it there :excited: I think I'll start watching Sangdoo in August, when my semester ends^^ I am excited about the Pepsi CF too!! will all the stars be in it or only a few of them?? I really hope it'll be a lot better than the one with Christina.. because I personally thought that it was a bit disappointing but maybe because Christina kind of stole the spotlight :oops: oh, I don't know how to convert all Chinese names from Korean but some I can do.. through lots of Googling (looking up certain celebs name and this chart in Wikipedia :tongue: )

Hei-Hei: Oh ic ic, then I don't think I can help you with your Korean name hehe.. I really liked Young Jae's personality in Full House.. but his style wise, I would have to say Bok-Gu.. :angel:

Grace: I just saw the clip you made!! It was really good and meaningful.. wow!! You should upload it to Youtube to share with everyone too hehe. And there's a picture of Bi holding a baby/toddler... it's such a cute picture!! Who's baby was that? I don't think I saw all 6 of the NGs :oops: I must go download it asap!! I've watched the one that Jessica mentioned.. the stuffing buns part lol.

Sandy: I think it's the Soompi's Se7en thread because I just visited the Se7en thread here and it's really quiet :tongue:

[rachelle03]

Gosh. I did not recall what had happened. I typed a long post and I think I had forgotten to click the reply button. :sweat: Well, once again, annyong, chingoos! :wave:

jess: Hmm, KANRs at that point was pretty equal out for the both troops. I still remember the KANanRs involving. :hmm: But now, I guessed the Kimchi troopies are increasing.

*hugs Ira* Be back soon, ya?

karen: We are two of the few who jumped ships into the kimchi troops. :sweat:

grace: You took korean lessons?! How interesting! ^^ I had a doubt long ago, regarding the word mianhe. Does it pronounced as mi-an-ne, mi-an-he or bi-an-ne? Coz I've heard different artistes pronounced it differently. :? I just saw your MV. Pretty good and you did bring out the story behind those smiles. :thumbsup:

xiaohei or Fizah: Hi! I think I'm the one of the few who'll find calling you Fizah comfortably. ^^ You listened to Jay and now Rain?! Whoa... You are one cool gal. :wink2: Yup, Rainy boy is coming to our shores! Scream.

Sandy! :wave:

[xiaohei88]

unnie rachelle i just love them.. i love thier music ..and i sing along at times even though i dont know what im singing seriously..haha.. I hope he comes after my O level and prays hard that the ticket is not too pricy.. maybe less than $200? .. then we meet up and then we go..haha..:-)

panda_shine its okay if you not able to help me out with my name.. i tried looking for those kind of translation.. no luck at all

grace nice video..its so cool... seeing him makes me want to hug him more..

unnie jessica maybe not now.. if i watch a new drama series with him in it.. i get too addictive and forget all about my studies:D :D


sweep hi!.. nice to meet you..


are mostly here girls?...hahaha

[gracecherry]

ahh reading the posts here and all your comments really made my day^^ chongmal kamshahamnida.

Rachelle unnie > oh, i know what u mean, i also was quite confuse if its mian-he or bian-he,coz different artiste has a different pronounciation, actually it is MIan ham ni da, thats the most formal way, follows by mian- heyo, and then the most casual, mian he. hehe ^^ hope that helps clarrifying.ehhee, i only attended the class twice, so havent learn much yet.LOL.but its soooo fun.now i noe how to order food in korean restaurant. thx for your kind compliment on my MV!!

karen, jess unnie, rach unnie, fizah >
because it was very sudden i felt like making something about bi and the things he went thru, so i was quite excited and all, and becoz of that, i finished it quite fast, bout 3 and half hrs. and so there are many imperfections to it. i could have made those transitons smoother and more accurate to the melody.

jess unnie > hi i posted at sexy bi and rain usa aredy.ehehe.i m soo happy you liked it.aww. i was considering for so long which background music to use.i needed something piano solo,and touching, yet not DULL.aww, and here i thought of this one, its the piano solo for the song 'inside my heart' which is one of the OST of MNIKSS, do u recognize? ehehe.^^ well, the challenge of making this mv, is tat i need to hav a basic storyline,and i need it to flow well and connect ,somehow. the part about teacher oh mi hee, may not seem too relevent,but, i thought, i want to include about a woman whom bi respects as a mom and also the criteria as his wife.aww~ besides that, i wanted to make short captions with absolute relevance to the particular scene being shown, like, i m sure u noe the part where he spoke in phuket about his mother, the things i wrote there, is sumthing that he indeed did speak at that part,and the part at the MSG concert, that he belives his mom is looking at him from heaven, thats also the exact words that he said.ehehe.besides all these, the part i try hard to match is,where the first few scenes pass,and the piano would come to a short stop...and then once it continue, the page starts turning, i was trying to create like a photobook feeling.^^ aww. i m not a creative person either.ehehe, tats why i stil cant really figure out how to use ps.infact tis is only the 2nd time i made a fan mv,the first one was for jay.ehehe.i luv the stuffing buns part!! he was soo cute, i wonder where was he throwing those buns too, is there a stray dog nearby or what.hahaa and ,i CANT wait to read those transcripts, yes yes, pls pls, email me unnie, once u sorta get the compilation, i noe how u truly feel when u hav no words to describe him! thats 'he is an amazing guy'. and the article about him being the artiste with the best body, he has more than enuf qualifications for that title! since we both think his body is a work of art!lol....


karen > oh that pic of him carrying the toddler was soo cute rite??? if i m not mistaken thats bori.haha lol.yes yes, those NGs are soo good, it jus lifts ur sad mood from the real story of ijuksa.hahaa. wat impress me the most was stil the NG of the beach kissing scene though ^^ hahahaa *blush* ommo,u r gona watch save the last dance too? thats a realy nice one too!! hhaah, i thought ji sung and eugene really looks matching in there.^^ and the OST is very nice too.besides all these, u should consider the drama 'first love of the royal crown prince' by cha tae hyun and sung yu ri...thats one of my romantic favs.

[panda_shine]

Inspired by Grace.. I started watching all these IJUKSA NGs hehe.. it makes me smile everytime Ji Hoon makes a mistake.. and I also watched this short interview clip with the Ji Hoon, Lee Ki Woo and SMA.. and it was so funny especially the part when they said something about Ji Hoon and Lee Ki Woo..:D

are mostly here girls?
Yup lol.. that's why awhile ago when Jerry popped in.. everyone was asking him if he was a guy or girl! :D

Grace: Hehe.. when you become more fluent in Korean, you can probably translate the words into Korean. I think if Bi saw it, he'll be so touched! I finally know which NG clip you are talking about now.. I realized I watched it before but didn't pay too much attention to it because I paid more attention to the part when she kept hitting him lol. Watching the NG clips makes me want to watch IJUKSA all over again. About Save the Last Dance.. yeah, I found out that they were playing it in the local Mandarin channel but didn't know until more than halfway.. and I always miss it since they play it on Saturday afternoons. I really like Ji Sung hehe and the few episodes I watch are soo good!! I love the OST too especially Give My Love by Edward Chun.. I'll spazz with you in email once I start watching it :happy:

[gracecherry]

ahh~ i m so tired from a whole day of work, and when i came back, i walked pass this garbage area...on the way to my apartment and, to my disbelief and shock, i saw a dead cat on the side way! awww. *i was totaly heartbroken* becoz there are a few cats around my area, though they are stray cats, i always feed them, and i always take time to play with them....and this is one of them, its very cute! i even hav name for it, i call it the 'curtain' cat,coz the face of the cat has the upper left and right corners with black fur and so it resembles a curtain. aww.i was soo sad and shock, i stood there and started crying * i m really bad at holding in tears * when i see such things happening to those cats.aww. and after i got home, i thought again and again,and i thought, the cat really has to be buried, so i got my parents to go bury the cat.aww, its soo sad. we cant find a place to dig a deep enuf hole....so hopefully the cat could rest in peace and with some respect beneath the shallow soil *sobs*


karen > ahh. yeah maybe i would try to put those captions in korean ,but it would be quite hard, maybe when i proceed to the more advance level first.haah. oooh goooodie, u started watching ijuksa NGs, i really like bi when he is ON and OFF camera, eheheh, on camera he is jus sooo like the mean KBG,hahaa, off camera...he is like the casual but professional actor jeong ji hoon.lol.so it means ,yes, i like bi as a whole. there were so many interesting parts of those NGs, if u havent hav those parts where he was trying soo hard to act cool taking out cigaretters from the box and ended up those cigarettes fall out from the box.aigoo>< hehe.

[xiaohei88]

gracewhat you did was a noble deed... i mean..who would be so caring enough to do so?.. i know i would but my parents would not care less.. your parents does so i salute them and you too for doing such a kind act!.. im a big animal lover and i happily pray that there are more people like you...:D

[teardrop]

jess unnie: so what did u think about that clip? i didn't find it that funny, prob bc i didn't understand what was being said but i thought that hyesung was sooooo funny when i saw his get up! hmmm i think the wireless router is prob what's causing u to disconnect, my sis has the same trouble. as the router's in my room she's on the wireless so when i dl her bandwidth goes really low and then she comes in here and complains :oops:. do have the "kissing" game clip and it was one of my favorites! i have the full version of it and recently read the translation too ^^ omo u have translations??? where? would you be able to send them to me please? :shy: yes i know i need to visit the dl thread although..... sigh there's just soo many to catch up on! However, under comparison, Rain's 42-inch chest definitely has the upper-hand.^^^lol!!! there's no competition in that pepsi pic who's chest wins hands down!!

lilice:awww it was no problem uploading st for u :happy: ahh glad u've finally heard it and seen it! now u understand why we spaz about that mv so much!! lol don't u just love everything about it?!?! i've actually got that as my alarm for my mb, had it set to st chorus since it came out, and although on my phone now it's getting a little annoying bc when i recorded it there a part where it's really REALLY loud so i try to turn it off b4 it reaches that part, but apart from that i still love listening to it even now after so many months! you have the longest post ever every time ahah i have seen it from the times^^^ :shy: lol ah can't help it i've just got sooo much to say!! most of the time it's jus blabber but it's fun! kekekeke ea this place definitely has its ups and downs on posting i mean sometimes rarely any^^^ YES! that's sooo true i checked it on thurs and there was only like 1 page but then checked it today and there's like 3 pages! :glug: but it's cool just means lots of long replies kekekke :bleh:

grace: aww hun i'm glad that u've got your korean lessons and other subjects all sorted out, you must tell me what you learn! lol ok mayb not the actual language, but stuff about their culture like you mentioned previously in one of your other post like why they bow and stuff like that, it's very interesting! at first and i thought, no one cud really enter anymore, coz i don’t have space, but now....its not the case ^^^ lol *coughoppajjhjaywhoelseisthere?cough* :shifty: that's alright bc i've got oppa u-know (tvxq) and brian from ftts in my <3 lol :rolleyes: i just dl ur clip that u made, for some reason when i opened it it was really really bouncy i dunno why that happened, but i paused it at some points to read what you wrote but then i tried to just watch it and gave up like 10secs after as it gave me a little headache :shy: but from what i did saw, it was really edited together and like jess said u used really good music and images, it really did set the mood and u just wann cry!! :cry: it was v. good, how did u create that little movie?? aww ur cat story just shows what a caring and companionate person you are.

xiaohei88: hi hi! :wave: i know i'm a little late but just wanna give you a BIG :welcome: so happy you've joined us and hope you enjoy your stay here, feel free to talk about anything even if it's not bi related :happy: so how did u find out about bi? was it through acting or singing?? so you're watching a love to kill?? what do you think about it so far?? isn't bi's performance sooo breath takingly well???? what did u think of fh?? i love that drama sooo much!! i would say that it's my fav drama of all time!

karen:o lil' kim's been released??? honestly i have no idea what is going on in the entertainment area in the west as i don't really care any more lol. it's really really strange, when i was in young like in secondary school i was really really into that stuff and actually was elected editor of the music section in my school "magazine" lol but i guess it started when i went to college, that's when i was more into chinese and then switched to korean like a yr later lol. It seems like Bi always collab with African-American artists ^^^ o yea, i hadn't noticed until you pointed that out, hmm not being mean or anything but i think that by collaborating with african americans, it makes him seem more hip and cool?? i mean it's not just oppa but also in the west like justin timberlake colab with pharrell Williams and timberland, britney spears and pharrell williams, gwen stefani and eve etc... also as well, i dunno i think it might be society or stereotypes but black people seem to have more higher status/respect in the music industry??? if i've offended any1 i didn't mean to this is just what i think. but i'm glad that oppa is getting some recognition and attention by other artists in the west go bi!! :D Bi is actually allergic to things that are made out of gold and at first, his manager opposed to having those gold sparkles on his chest but Bi kept insisting^^ wah! he's so dedicated to his work, he'll even put himself through danger, even though he thankfully didn't get reaction, but still there was a chance and he stil took, you have to admire him! thanks for the little info. Because I can try to help you figure out your Korean namewha!! really??? can you translate my name?!?!?

[sweep]

jess: yes, please. (links):excited: That's why there are less searches in youtube...

rachelle:wave: hello to you too.:happy:

karen: oh, that's where I saw it. hope some pics or clips come out soon.

irina: irina was here!??:wave:

grace, that's a good act of kindness towards animals. I don't know anyone who would have done that.

I just saw some of Rain's pepsi pics. Man *drool fest* It's true, no visible body fat. I wish I had less body fat. hehehe I miss the bokgu hair though. I cn't wait for the commercial!

You guys saw jay's look in the city of golden armour, right!? I have not seen him in ages with visible forehead. hihi

I just knew yesterday that Lee Dong Wook will be coming to the Philippines! I have/had a huge crush on him!!! :cry: Apparently, My Girl is a huge hit there. (no doubt).

I was able to watch the Shinwha-world cup germany. It was hilarious!! Eric still has his effect on me. And guess what?!! Junjin too! But I think all of them are just adorable. They are a joy to watch!

[jessica]

i just found out that the Road for Rain translation is posted on sexybi after doing a long search on soompi :oops: here's the link to it (updated with 2 chapters today) --> http://s6.invisionfree.com/sexybi/index.php?showtopic=7781&st=0 all must read on how incredible this boy is! :love:

karen: no problem :happy: the Pepsi CF with Bi will only have Louis, Edison and Jolin. i didn't fancy the CF with Christina either, except that i liked his look there.
yay, Aug! i think that was around the time that Sangdoo was aired. that part in the IJUKSA news clip where the host said something about Ji Hunnie and LKW was about their chemistry in the drama :D

rach: i knew the korean wave would hit the KANRs sooner or later, hehe...esp. when Lisa kept on spamming the thread with pics during that theme week :D
like grace said, it's mianhae/mianhe (미안해). when i first watched kdramas, i heard a lot of bianhae also ><

hei-hei: haha, i see. then you should hold it off until you have a break :tongue: yes, most of us are girls here. we had our first male dropping by only a short while before you made your appearance. he seem to have disappeared..hmm.

grace: i PMed you on sexybi about your MV. i'll repeat myself here too. i converted your MV into .avi format and got it to play in wmp so i uploaded that file for those members who had problems playing it. hope you don't mind :sweat:
yes, i know that the bg music is Inside My Heart. i like that piano version too. you did a very good job on your second MV :-) i actually enjoyed making a fan made MV than to use PS ><
the link to the R4R translation is posted above. it's quite long so i'd suggest that you copy and paste it to word and read it when you have time ^_^ aigoo, i hope you're feeling better now :console:

teardrop: it's always entertaining to watch Shinhwa goof around :D hyesung can really pass as a girl! :laughing: :roll: he looks sooo pretty, but i think he'd look better with a little less make-up, and that goes for junjin as well :laughing: although i don't understand what they're saying, i usually laugh along at their facial expressions and actions =P it's funny how those ppl can't recognize them in their disguise :D the translation for that "kissing game" clip can be found at shcj. i'll have to go and dig it up because it was a few months ago that i've read it ^^;
i converted Grace's MV so it should play normally in your wmp now --> click (http://www.sendspace.com/file/hnuife) :happy: that's a very hot banner you got there :brows:

sandy: i heard that My Girl was doing very well in the Phillipines...and a lot better than IJUKSA :oops: i never though that LDW will pay a visit there though. it's just bad timing =/ yes, i've seen Jay's new look for the movie. i'm not liking his facial hair x_x

here are all the links to 3 of the popular stations. some links might be broken, so you'll have to try them until one works for you ^^;

[gracecherry]

hi everyone...

ahh, i had my korean class today,well, things are going reallly fast, today we learn the 10 vowels and 14 consonants, that makes up the writing of hangeul. heeh, we had an interesting intro on how Hangul was created.

teardrop ,jess unnie > i thought u two may be interested ^^ the korean language is called Hangeul mal, its creation was initiated by King Sejong from the Lee dynasty during the 15th century. Back then, the people of hanguk 'korean ppl' actually speak in the hangeul mal, but they do not have a proper set of writing to depict what they are speaking, and so they 'borrowed' the alphabets from China, so it means, the older generation who are from the rich and wealthy classes would know how to read and write in Chinese. Because the Chinese characters are difficult to learn, so most of the lower classes cant afford to have teachers to teach them learn, and that was why King Sejong gathered a group of extraordinary scholars to invent the han geul alphabets.now i noe why in Goong the royals could read chinese.haha.lol,so they call they used the chinese alphabets to depict the their language which ... those set of chinese writing of korean language is call 'idu'. And, linguistics researched on the family of which the hangeul mal belongs to, it is the family of 'ural-altaic' .heeh.

oh my,the class is getting tough,becoz we hav to memorize all the vowels and consonants, coz only that way we can learn to read the words. and now i know what is the word 'bi' made of ,ahaha, its from the consonant of the 'b' sound with the vowel of the 'i' sound.ehheeh, actually it could be pronounced as bi/pi....coz alot of times, the korean consonants has two ways of pronouncing it, and some are with the sound in the middle of two .^^ and anyways yea its getting complicateeeed.

fizah > i love cats, they are sooo cute, i m very sad whenever i see any injured animal or dead animal on the roadside, its so common. and it saddens me. some looks really terrible as they are hit by the cars etc....but this cat, i dont what happen to it. awww....i cant bear the feeling of leaving it at the garbage area,coz the nex day it would look very awful when it starts decomposing.aww....so sad to think of it. well, yes like u said no one would do that, coz ytd when i was digging the hole, it was pretty late at nite,and passer by would think something weird. ahh....i dont bother bout them.

teardrop > hi hi. sorry to have caused u headache.heehehe,i hav no idea why so many ppl had the problem of viewing the vid, but jess fixed it for me...so i hope u could re DL.heeh.hahaaa, oh yes,i noe u have many 'oppas' in you! as for me, bi remains at the top, ive got another two only.eehhe. i gues u noe.lol

jess unnie > i got ur msg at sexybi, i have changed the link in RI and RAIN USA as well, thx....oh i saw the original set of ijuksa out.its about usd30 for the whole set, duno its dvd or vcd though.eheh.and i have copy pasted the t4r transcripts, thx..i would read it when i hav time, must read as a pleasure....coz its so precious.ooh, unnie, ur computer can type hangeul???? eheehe. oh another interesthing thing, 'gasoo' is actually 'ka su' and it means singer.lol, i dint noe that, i thought it means hot guys! hahaha.and also...i m gona ask my teacher to tell me wats my name in hangeul! then i would let u noe! haha.and also...i m sure u always heard of cho-a-e-yo ? in the dramas instead of saying 'sarang-he-yo' sumtimes the say 'cho-a-e-yo' so i thought it means 'like' but it actually means 'like or good' so....now it clears my confusion why i used to hear them saying it even in simple dialogues.hheehhe.

sandy > hi hi, so happy u r dropping by abit more these days.ehehe, wow, i didnt noe that my girl was sooo famous in the philippines.heeh. i had a crush on LDW sshi too!but only when i was watching MG, then i was more into LJK sshi.ahhh~

[xiaohei88]

Hey guys have you heard about Rain movie debut called I Am A Cyborg But Its Okay.. thats the title in english that is..I just read the news paper and it was talking about Korean films losing their appeal here in singapore.. and they were mentioning about Rain movie debut.. i cant wait for it.. :happy:

i saw his hair in that character and it wasnt pretty...haha


its so cool that grace is taking the korean language class.. i cant wait to enroll in one after my O levels examinations.. and now i know how it was invented...:wink2:

[liliceprincess]

hey everyone lol backlogged once again ><

gracecherry:: still lucky! lol to have met jay ahah i have never done something like that so its interesting to hear about your experience in addition and i find that its awesome that there is such things like that to win to meet jay. i havent seen stuff like that here obviously lol its like so hard to ever see him in the US. But at the same time i am glad that rain and se7en are trying to make it here more chance for me to see them =D hmmm question for you..what is all the series that rain has ever made? cause im a lil lost and want something to watch =)

ahh, i had my korean class today,well, things are going reallly fast, today we learn the 10 vowels and 14 consonants, that makes up the writing of hangeul.
wow! is korean hard to learn i mean with its writing and all? i have seen the writing and its just like ohh my thats really hard for me to understand at all. even jsut hte pronunciation.

jessica: wow! that is so cool! i mean to have seen rain like that. its so awesome to have known where he would be and everything i mean here for me = = he can really be anywhere and it would be fairly hard to find here. ahah yea i am just a youngling here lol btw not to be rude to ask this but how old are you? your experience with Bi is so awesome i mean to have that kind of description just from one look it seems to clear with ever remark just there to describe how he was and wow that is so cool i mean its not everyday that can happen =) did you ever get pics of him when you had seen him in the street?

ellen:: hey! :wave: its been long time since i have seen you anywhere..mm >< i have no clue what that is saying

sweep: :wave: hello i dont think i have truly said hi to you before nice to meet you =)

rachelle03: :wave: anyong! nice to meet you by the way.

oo.. so Bi was a dagger-thrower in the Pepsi ad..!! I didn't think of that but I didn't really wonder either hehe.
panda_shine really? =O oops lol i didnt know that either but does the costume really match a dagger thrower? sorry to ask but is your name karen? i tend to forget :oops:

teardrop:: ahaha you are so funny and amusing at times but wow! even on ur alarm clock? lol thats cool ahha hmm how does that work though? i mean for your alarm clock? is it like a cell phone that you are using or something? hahah yep =D finally saw it and it was awesome i was like wow no wonder why everyone loves it so much. it has a nice beat to it =)

^^^ YES! that's sooo true i checked it on thurs and there was only like 1 page but then checked it today and there's like 3 pages!
ahah yea i know hwo that feels i was going to be lazy today but then i saw omg there is so many pages already i should just write a post just so that i will not get too far behind and get insane

xiaohei88: :wave: yep i have heard of the new movie coming out and all..really? korean movies having trouble making it? hmm wonder how the hair looks now aahh since you sad it wasnt pretty..lol

well hopefully i didnt miss anyone :shy:

[jessica]

grace: hehe, i knew the basics on how hangeul was created, but not the in-depth background. it won't take long to memorize the korean alphabet since there aren't many strokes like traditional Chinese. typing it is also difficult because you have to learn the keystrokes. i always mispell words because of how it was romanized and i still haven't memorized the whole alphabet yet -.-;
Bi can be pronounced as "bee" or the sound in-between "bee" and "pi"..it shouldn't have a heavy "p" sound or that word will mean "blood" (피) :tongue: i thought you know what gasoo (가수) meant a long time ago already ^^; i think the "g" and "k" can be used interchangeably, depending on how you romanize it. i've recently learned that chuhayo (?) can mean "like or good" too. yes, i can type korean words because i installed the font. i posted a link for rach last time when she asked me about it. you should definitely install it too since you're learning korean. here's the site to guide you through (for Windows XP - if you use earlier versions, you'll have to download the korean font) --> click (http://www.declan-software.com/korean_ime/#XPinstall)
the IJUKSA set is out already?!! hmm, i don't think DVDs would cost that low...or VCD for that matter :glug: did you find it on yesasia?

hei-hei: yes, we've heard of that movie. he plays a mental patient who thinks that he can steal ppl's souls with a machine he invented :sweat: all of us are anticipating his movie debut ^^ i'm glad he chose another challenging role. the image he'll take on will be...unique :D

Wendy: it wasn't me with the insider info ^^; i didn't plan to look for him after the concert ended. i was lucky to go with Bi'ers who knew where he'll be eating afterwards. the ktown in Manhattan is only one block anyway, so it won't be hard to spot him. when we got to the restuarant, there was already a handful of fans waiting outside. this is the pic i took the 2nd night.
http://img214.imageshack.us/img214/2567/rdny26wm8.jpg
i'm one of the 1982 babies, so you do the math :tongue: i really don't have experience with seeing Bi. the NY concert was my first time. i'm sure any fan here can be as descriptive, if not more elaborate when it comes to his sightings :happy:

here's another sighting of Bi on his flight back to Korea.
Fan's Account: Meeting Jihoon on his return flight
16 July 06

Credit: 羽WITH雨@biwithrain// jinlees@soompi// RainHK//rain USA
Ch to Eng: Rayndrop

During Korean class today, my Korean teacher told me a piece of great news...
She said, Yesterday, her Korean friend told her...
She was on the same flight back to Korea with Jihoon last night (we know Jihoon was in US last week).
Hearing this, of course we were no longer in a hurry to start the lesson...
Told her to tell me everything in details, everything about her friend's meeting with Jihoon.
That friend was in the business class, and her position was just nice across the walking path from Jihoon's seat.
But Jihoon was in the window seat. An American sat beside him, while his manager sat behind Jihoon.
She wasn't a Bi'er, so he didn't know Jihoon had gone to the US.
It was just coincidental that 3, 4 hours before touching down, it was meal time...

Jihoon turned around to talk to his manager
It was then that she heard Jihoon's familiar voice...He's "Rain"!
She immediately sought confirmation from the air stewardess.
The air stewardess smiled and nodded, but asked her to lower her voice (the air stewardess looked like a bi'er...she looked really happy)
Although her friend wasn't a fan, but she was excited to be able to sit so near to him...
(My Korean teacher said Jihoon's very well-known in Korea, and people of all ages liked him).
Thereafter, she kept peeping at Jihoon (but pretended to be calm so as not to cause him discomfort).

She said, Jihoon didn't eat the meal, just had some salad and fruits.
Thereafter, he kept listening to the ipod, and swaying his head with the music. Extremely adorable!

When they were about to get off the plane, she quickly walked up to Jihoon (finally got her chance)
and asked, "Are you Rain?"
Jihoon opened his eyes wide and looked really shocked while answering, "Yes" (Probably wondering why an Asian would speak with him in English).
She asked, "Can I take a photo with you?"
The manager immediately objected politely.
Jihoon turned to her, smiled and said, "Sorry."
She asked, "Then, can you sign your autograph for me?"
Jihoon immediately stretched out his hand to take the piece of paper from her...
So she took out her name card from her wallet and passed it to him...
Jihoon took over the namecard, looked at it seriously and asked, "You're working at this company?"
She said, "Yes, I am a designer there."
(The company is a famous leather product company in Korea)
Jihoon took out his pen from his bag and signed on the back of the card...
Thereafter, he suavely put the pen into his pocket...
She passed Jihoon another card, and Jihoon politely accepted it.
Thereafter, Jihoon went to the VIP lounge to wait to exit.

She said, Jihoon was wearing a hat and dressed very casually...a simple t-shirt with jeans.
He looked very tired...
She said before that, Jihoon kept sleeping on the plane, and he slept very soundly (perhaps he was very tired)
But because the seat was too small, although it was business class (he's tall with long legs)
So Jihoon kept changing his position; sometimes putting his hand up as pillows, sometimes lowering his head to sleep, sometimes lifting his head...
But he looked really adorable...

[gracecherry]

jess unnie > oh well, it seems you did alot of self research and learning on the korean language aredy? hehe. what i learn about the introduction is also jus very much a summary.^^ and yes u are rite, the first consonant has a g/k sound as well as the 'j and ch' sound , one is mild one is stronger, or the intermediate of the both letters.hehe, i gues that i have to memorize all the vowels and consonants by this week, coz nex week we are moving into reading aredy>< its very confusing when there are double vowels and double consonants, its quite interesting to noe where are the consonants placed too,either on the vertical or horizontal position of the vowel.eheh.i have learnt a little bit of chinese back when i was in primary, so i can master the writing of the strokes easier coz its jus like how the chinese is.hehe.i alredy followed the instructions and installed the language, now how do i TYPE in hangul? ^^

nope i saw ijuksa in a video shop in a mall, its about USD 30 or 35 only, packed properly in a box set, i dont noe if its original or not but it LOOKS quite original? heeh. and ive seen posters here and there too,the promotional gimmick is to state 'korea heavenly king, RAIN's new drama' ,aigooo.

ommo! that fan's friend's experience is sooooo adorable! i mean, oori ji hoon is sooo adorable, aigooo, see....this are ppl i like, though she isnt a fan, but she stil feel that, wow....he's a star and it does feel great to have been close to him...unlike some ppl ,who feels excited seeing a celebrity in person and yet they wana get near ,but at the same time complaining this and that. hmmm.

unnie, someone at sexy bi requested if u cud upload my mv in ysi.coz she has a prob with SS. hope u cud drop by when u hav time ya...

fizah > hehe, oh i m sorta hoping to get into a more advance level after i complete my current semester on the language, i shall ask the teacher about it.ehheeh. but i'll have to work hard at the moment,becoz i m soooo busy with tonnes of assignments and reviews to do so this sem and learning the language, really is NOT easy.aww.heeheh, but aja aja! heeh, yes... rain has a new movie coming up, i NOE wat u mean about his hair, hahahahaa, i cant stop laughing when i saw that too, i thought he looked sooo retarded yet cute at the same time *sssh, jess unnie doesnt like me using the word retarded* mianhe unnie.haha, jk jk. anyways, ji hoon has mentioned before that, he doesnt want a movie that only has high viewing rate and give his popularity a boom, he wants a character which he can challenge, becoz he is taking up the role as an actor.i m curious about the movie toooo.^^

wendy > hi hi,our bi has only 3 official series ,1) Sangdoo lets go to school 2) Full House 3) I jukil nomui sarang ....so yeap there are jus this 3. my korean teacher said that the korean language is much easier compared to chinese and japanese, but it is harder than malay *my country's national language aka the malay language* ....hmmm, it is not easy tat is for sure. becoz....though we may master the basic,but when it comes to the tenses and sentence particle, as we learn sentence structures, etc etc, it would be complicated and compound consonants & vowels would come it...but, i really want to learn it,eheh so i would jus hav to work at it.hehe.hmm, dont worry, i m sureeeee RAIN would hav concerts in the States soon, so u may as well go for it then.hehehe.ooh u dont noe bout ji hun's 'cute' hairstyle in the cyborg movie? hahaa, there are pics of it in the pics thread.eheheh. so, if u are curious, do go hav a look....i think even ji hun laughs at his own hairstyle and he has a name for it ,he called it the ' antenna ' hairstyle.hahahahah.and aww, its sooo good to be young like you....when u reach the age of 20....time seems to fly...and in no time. 25 would approach then 26, then....ahhhh~

[minty_angel]

Sorry for the late replies guys, but omigod guess what?!! I was talking to a friend that was in China at the moment and then was reading this forum at the same time and then I realised she could get the Rain Pepsi mobile chain thing from KFC for me!! I was so happy this morning when she gave it to me xD I was in the school library at the time and my friends were like – Monique SSHH! +laughing at my craziness. lol

teardrop: sorry! i missed your post last time - this is a reply for ages ago: >.< lol yeah i am so crazy about rain my friend says it's scary. haha. and i have a friend who keeps teasing me about sending Rain a letter.. oh no i think i'd rather have rain as more than a friend xD. hehe. YES OMG Sad Tango is just so..wow. i watched it a gazillion times. my brother knows the tune to it (unwillingly) haha and he knows some of the steps of the dance lol

jessica: yeah, that’s probably right what you said about the ending to Sangdoo being up to the audience.
Hahaha Jihoon got awarded with having the perfect body. GOSH I totally agree xD.
Oh jess, at first I couldn’t decide whether or not to read the translation for Road for Rain cause I didn’t want to ruin it for when I can finally watch it or get it somehow – but in the end I gave in to temptation>.<

liliceprincess: lol ok, isn’t Sangdoo fully uploaded on Youtube? Well it’s in the Rain download thread: http://jay-chou.net/forums/showthread.php?t=15140&page=1&pp=10

gracecherry: I agree . I love watching the interviews, you learn so much more about him…he’s such a sweet guy. He seems so thoughtful too. I heard that good dancers are usually shorter too but Rain’s still so great – just proves them wrong. Talking about tall people me and my friends were looking at this pic in the newspaper of this 239cm basketball player. As I’m a short person I was tryna figure out how much taller he was than me; which is a lottt. Anyway, Rain wouldn’t be considered that much of a tall person compared to him! Lol
I watched your ‘Behind the smiles of Rain’ MV. Was it meant to flicker? Some pictures I couldn’t see as clearly but the ones that I did see well were so adorable *heart* I like seeing the Bi off the stage more too=). He looks good even without flashy make-up and clothes unlike a lot of other celebrities.

Sandy heyy, so where abouts do you live? I live in Australia and am waiting patiently[well not really patiently] for Rain to come down here to perform! Haha. But I might get to see him in concert when I go overseas at the end of the year – I’m so excited; actually it’s the main reason I’m excited about going overseas at all hahaha:excited:

xiaohei: hello!:wave: I’m Monique.

[xiaohei88]

Monique hi girl!.. the name is fizah but you can call me whatever that the unnie's are calling me.. so nice to meet you by the way!!

grace korean is more difficult than malay?.. but im taking malay and i hate my own language cause it sucks and its hard for me.. :oops:


where are all of you guys from???

[jessica]

someone did a fan made CF on Pepsi using the Dadada song he sang in Chinese! if you don't fancy the other one he did with Christina, you should definitely keep this one =P this is all on him :drool:
YSI (http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=0D5E8F6905934755) (5MB)

grace: i didn't really do any research. i just read whenever i come across something related to the korean language or culture ^^; i get confused with the double consonants too >< i'm still learning, but very slowly :shy: here's the guide to type korean on your keyboard (i pasted the pics in word so you can practice) --> click (http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=806C50086A3109FE). i think there were instructions on how to begin typing in korean in that site i linked you. you'll have to enable the feature first. when you first learn how to read korean, it's going to be hard. but you'll get a hang of it soon after you recognize those alphabets ^^ 아자아자 화이팅~! (aja aja hwaiting)
omo! there are posters of Bi in the mall to promote this drama? hmm, if it's released in yesasia i think stores should carry it too. i'll look around ctown or ktown and see if they have it here.
hehe, that person who was on the same flight as him did a very good job at describing all the small details. this just shows that he's not putting up a front when he's out in public even when there are no fans/paparazzis/antis scrutinizing his every move. he's naturally that adorable :D
i reuploaded your MV to YSI already ^^

monique: aah~! you're so lucky to have connections like that! you should've asked for a Pepsi bottle too :D it doesn't affect anything if you read the translation to Road for Rain because the japanese version doesn't have subtitles and JYPE is still talking about releasing the korean version, but we're unsure if there will be subs included. it's better to read and understand what he said now before you watch the DVD :happy:
i converted Grace's MV so it doesn't have glitches when you play it --> click (http://www.sendspace.com/file/hnuife)

hei-hei: i'm sure you already know i'm from NY ^^ taking a new language is always difficult, esp. when you are older. but if you practice a lot, i think you should be able to be fluent :-) aja aja~~~

[gracecherry]

okay...today was a realy fun day for me. well, i went to the korean class and the teacher says today we are not having class, we wud hav a culture class! heeh ,its the korea day organized by the arts facculty,so we went over to the seminar rooms, where they were showing korean culture introductory movies, and they had some ppl preparing simple korean food like kimbab and kimchi! and we tried it was soo nice, we cud even make it if we want to. they let us try making on the spot. and then we cud try on some of the hanboks too! i wore a pink one, tooo bad,the guy who took my pic didnt take a good one, so i would be too shy to share with u guys here.lol.but yea it was soo fun,and most surprisingly of all!there some korean products laid on the table...things like....books, card, magazines.etc..and there were TWO SK TELECOM RAIN POSTERS, with his signature! i m soooo wondering where it came from!! lol...but i didnt act frantic....coz everyone there seems very calm and rational.hmm.

jess unnie >i m starting to get the hang of it aredy,ehehe, so i m trying to write phrases like mi an ham ni da, an yong, ban gap sub ni da...etc etc in hangul. oh, i cud read aja aja hwaiting!! heheeheh, but i m not very sure how the 'hwait' comes from, i see the 'h' consonant,i see the 'a' ,'o' & 'i' ??? *blur* ok ok, thx for the word file, ehehee, now how do i enable the feature? i followed the steps on the declan's site ytd...to install the thing aredy.and i went to the tool panel and click language and click korean ,but i kept automatically went back to eng, i duno why.wats more i need to do unnie?

aww, i hav never doubted bi acted out his cutey site.lol....so i m sure that in person he is cuter than i thought,haahha but also more serious when he is working ...

monique > oh so sorry about the mv, it wasnt meant to flicker, hope u cud DL the ammended format from the link jess gave.ehhee,and hope u cud re-comment after watching the smooth version lol.i think i noe wic basketballer u meant, was it yao ming? ehheeh, he is extreme! and its not normal.and yesss, i love watching interviews too, besides int, almost any video clips, like offstage etc etc,on bi, would let us learn more bout him! bi's skin is naturally good.but its difficult to maintain as his job has so much pressure and always lack of sleep.....so they tend to hav eye bags easily.aww. and oh coz, he is such a sweet guy, i think ppl who noe him personally all think the same way.jus look at his attitude, of not sitting in first class while flying.....u wud noe, he is a really nice guy.ahhh.*total bf material rite?shy shy*

fizah > oh ehheeh, the korean language is very much different from languages like eng and bm, becoz it is simply not based on alphabets, its like chinese characters, wic u hav to learn how to write the strokes. and then, to pronouce a word u hav to add in the combinations of sound for the vowels and consonants in it. u find BM tough? i used to write good BM essays back when i was in form 5 as u noe its my national language too ><,eheheh, but i gues i dont now,hehehe.

[xiaohei88]

unnie jessOk cool.. i missed the banner ... if not i would knew where you were from.. thanks for the link to rain's fan made cm.. it is really cool.. i like it when rain ties his hair on the upper part.. he looks so hot.. but.. the part when i went gaga over is when he bites his lips... oh god he is just super adorable!!!!!!!!!.. God must have spent a little more time on him man! Thank you so much for your encouragement!.. i will certainly do my best when i am enrolled!.. and yes by the way the one that you edited.. for grace.. i can only open up as audio... something must be wrong with my stupid computer:oops:


grace its sounds difficult but!.. i will try to succeed!!!... haha.. i even dream of migrating to korea you know after i get a hang of the language.. maybe be an english teacher?..haha.. you're a chinese?.. and you're doing a better job in malay than me!.. i just cant speak or even write well and im failing it pretty badly since i lost the interest and pushing it to the chinese & korean language:happy:

[attentionxreader]

-jumps in and starts singing Eminem's

Guess who's back? Back again. Yi Ming's back. Tell a friend.
Guess who's back? Guess who's back!!!!

KAYZ. End of hyper session. What news about Bi have I missed?! I know I've missed 3 weeks worth!

[gracecherry]

fizah > hi hi, oh...i understand what u mean by having thoughts of goin to korea. coz i have the same thinking!!! lol~ its not really a true planning or anything concrete yet though, jus that i feel i would like to do something that has to do with korea. in some ways, i was thinking to try find oppurtunities to work there, or something. heheh. everything is stil very vague now of coz, i jus hav to focus on my degree first.hehe.yes i m chinese,ehhee, and oh well....i m force to master the BM language, coz, its very much emphasize in the 12 years of schooling, aigoooo...and the competition to get into local uni in msia is very tough,so whether i like it or not, i jus cant screw the bm paper.lol.so aja aja hwaiting fizah!! aww...u cant view the mv version jess uploaded...aww....~~~

yi > hi hi welcome back, gues u got to backlog for updates,ehhe, but generally not much except that bi has went to LA for the discussion of his collaboration plans,and then the transcripts to his road4rain that jess pasted the link to, and the experience of the fan who saw him on the plane, on the way back from LA to korea. ^^

[attentionxreader]

gracecherry
Collaboration plans? Whazzat? I don't know anything! -hides-

And who saw him on the plane?!!! -goes back to check-

[jessica]

i just watched a Pepsi news clip and it seems like Bi and Jolin will be doing some dancing together in the CF. just to let you girls know so you'd know what to expect ^^;

grace: i never thought taking a foreign language class can be so adventurous and fun! how i wish the schools offer it here >< maybe those posters were brought over from S. Korea by a fan? hehe. i'd be curious if they'll sell it to their students :tongue:
i tried writing in Korean, but the words comes out in irregular shapes and sizes, like when i attempt to write in traditional Chinese :oops: i rather stick to typing for now ^^;
i hope this explains how "hwaiting" is typed out --> ㅎ + ㅗ + ㅏ = 화 (hwa) ㅇ + ㅣ= 이 (i) ㅌ + ㅣ + ㅇ= 팅 (ting)
oh, you don't enable the feature from Tool. there's a little box with the letters "EN" on your start menu bar, click that and choose Show the Language bar. then you'd see a bar pop up. click on English and choose Korean and the bar will expand. after that, click on the "A Han/Eng" and it should switch to 가 Han/Eng. you can start typing in Korean afterwards :happy:

hei-hei: if you hear only sounds, then you might be missing codecs. you should DL the full version of the k-lite codecs pack so you won't have that problem anymore. it comes with vobsub for viewing soft subs and media classic player --> click (http://www.free-codecs.com/K_Lite_Codec_Pack_download.htm)

Yi: welcome back! where have you disappeared to? you haven't missed much news. he's lying low right now and there are rarely any news coverage on him =( thank goodness for fan sightings to keep us up-to-date on his whereabouts. Grace pretty much summarized everything ^^ you can look for older news on sexybi if you're not up to reading backlogs here :tongue:

[panda_shine]

Grace: Hehe.. yeah although Bok-Gu is really mean and cold, but I kind of like his coolness too :angel: I am not sure if I've seen the cigarette part NGs.. I think one of my favorite one is the one where he's punching the boxing bag? and it hurt.. His reaction was so cute!! I read your info on the Korean language history.. which is quite informative. How many levels of Korean classes does your uni offer? The part when you said "but i didnt act frantic....coz everyone there seems very calm and rational.hmm." :D :hugz: That sounded so funny lol. Oh, I saw a set of IJUKSA in a Chinese mall here too for around $30 USD too but the set I saw wasn't the official one.. :oops:

teardrop: Yeah, I read the Lil Kim news on MSN a few weeks ago but I think she's still on probation. Me too, I've been more and more 'korean-ized'. Yeah, I guess that might be the possibility.. collaborating with hip hop artists and most hip hop artists in the west are African Americans. I am not sure if I can translate your name but I can try^^ What's your Chinese name? or you can PM me if you don't want to reveal it :tongue:

Sweep: I saw Jay's new look in the movie too.. my reaction::glug:

Jessica: Thanks for the Road for Rain translation! About the IJUKSA news clip.. yeah, it was hilarious that the editor actually put a heart with only Ji Hun and LKW!! :D Wow you seem to know Korean really well too! That's such a cute incident on the plane (the article). I can just imagine the air stewardess feeling all excited lol. :D I just saw the Pepsi news clip you were talking about!^^ I kind of wish it wasn't Jolin who's dancing with Bi lol...:shifty: but I guess Jolin is the best dancer there and the Pepsi can move they did at the end is kind of cool. :excited:

Wendy: Yup, my name is Karen^^ Yeah, I didn't know it was a dagger-thrower too until I read the news Jessica posted.

Monique: awww.. you are so lucky you get the cell chain from KFC!! *gasp* Is it as nice as in the pictures? And lol, like Grace said.. I think the basketball is just exceptionally tall.. ^^

Hei-Hei: I am located in Canada :wave:

[gracecherry]

ahhh~ i went over to the arts facculty again jus now,the korean exhibition ws ytd and today, coz the pics that guy took ytd didnt turn out nice *hmm,ok i noe i m not photogenic,lol* so i went today with my fren and asked my fren to help me take pics with my phone instead.haha.some turn out 'ok' ...so anyone interested to see me in hanbok ^_^ -->

i like this color the most coz its so sweet and flower embroideries are very nice too~

^_^

jess unnie >thx for splitting up the compartments of hwa. ^^ i gues i understand now.in this case its suppose to be like 'hwoai' ...now i get it.heeh.oh you should practice more of writing in korean unnie! yes it would be in irregular shapes and sizes jus like the chinese characters. coz, well...the writing isnt like english alphabets.tats why, its what makes the writing special.haha.and yay, ive got my keyboard set to type in korean,heeheh, now i can type,eheh,feels so happy.oh the posters, are not for sale though, there are many things there for display,so they actually 'display' bi! hahaa, lol.and ahh, i was looking at the signature quite long though~ coz its not printed or anything its real signature.sooo, i duno wat i m feeling.hahhaha.yes u r rite, bi seems to be lying low rite now, before the release of his 4th jib and before the start of his nex tour, i m sure he needs to do loads of preparation, and here come some of my frens saying, rain isnt that popular anymore...and tat others such as seven are taking over...hmm ppl seems to judge popularity by how frequent they hear bout the artiste, wic is partially true but a very shallow way of judgement.hmmm~><

karen > u noe wat, ur package stil hasnt arrive, now i m very worry,aww~ oh punching the boxing bag? was it the one he was punching , and KSA was sitting at the boxing ring there, with her chins on her knuckles, staring / admiring bok gu? i love tat part too....he was sooo cuteee. and for sooo many reasons, i feel that bi looks very *ahem* attractive, coz his shirt has 1 or 2 buttons unbuttoned.... and the angle and the light...jus made him sooo.hmm.yea.errr, rite now i only heard about the level one, wic is for beginners....meaning its offered to students from any other facculties to take as elective subject, but for the linguistic facculty students, they can chose korean as their major, wic means they would be the korean language degree students, so for them, they learn into greater detail of coz. what i m thinking is, maybe i would keep in touch with the teacher and incase or in anywhere else you teaches the 2nd level, i would love to join.heeh.^^ and actually me oso not sure if the one i saw was official or not, but it looks very nicely packed....oh oh, i can see how much u r enjoying stld!! heeheh~ by now i gues u shud be finding tae min annoying?

[xiaohei88]

graceyou look so beautiful and graceful in that hanbok!!!:excited: im so jealous..cause you're fair..im like dark skin so me wearing a hanbok would be so weird....

jess unniethank you unnie.. !! and may i ask whats rain on the road?:shy:

attentionxreaderhellos!

panda_shine oh cool canada... chinese or caucasian?..haha.. i just wanna know more of you guys here... haha


after seeing our grace putting on a hanbok.. i now yearn for one myself!!!:cry:

[jessica]

karen: hehe, i only know a few romanized korean words. i usually type the wrong alphabet :oops: i saw another news clip on the Pepsi CF and it showed a little more of Ji Hunnie. he taught Louis, Edison and Jolin how to say "delicious" in Korean :love: i'm very curious with the final cut of their dance with the Pepsi can. how they can pull it off and make it look cool, with the circus outfits they'll be wearing :sweat:
i know which NG clip you're referring to! yes, he was suppose to look tough while punching that bag, but he hit it too hard (maybe incorrectly) and hurt his hand. then he went close to the camera and made a pouty face :cloud9:

grace: you look so pretty in a hanbok! the soft pink compliments your fair skin :happy: i love the design on it too. why were you afraid to show us these pics before? =P if i was in your position, i'd ask to take a pic holding one of Bi's signed SK Telecom posters, even if those there would think i'm a crazy fanatic :D *coughbecausei'monthebrinkofbecomingonecough*
mm, it's not "hwoai" because ㅘ = wa...it's a combination vowel (i just looked that up, keke) :wacko: my handwriting for traditional Chinese is like "building blocks" as my mom would put it >< it's the same when i attempt to write in korean, although i've only tried it once ^^; is there a technique to write it? :?
whoever got those posters signed is very lucky. i wouldn't put it out on display unless it's protected behind a case, hehe. the Japanese interview i subbed has him writing his name in Chinese. he said, "my handwriting's horrible" :D here's a teaser until you get to watch it --> <333 (http://img48.imageshack.us/img48/8449/snapshot20060720193929tw8.jpg). if you can go to a computer lab, i'll hardsub the file and upload it to youtube so you can stream it because i just learned how to the past couple of days ^^
only his fans would know that it's not possible for him to lose popularity that quickly. there are so many activities awaiting him in the coming months. that's why i worried in the past if i could remain his avid fan if he enters the military. 2-3 years without any news or clips of him will be excruciating :cry: i'll try to remain optimistic and go through it with Bi and his fans.
oh, i've been watching Goong again. i'm up to ep 9 and the cutie who made me continue watchng was one of Shin's friend. he's that boy who is interested in Hyorin. he also starred in a MV with Kim Jong Hoon aka Yul (did i get his name right?). i don't like his character in the drama, but he's such a sweety in real life <3

hei-hei: Road for Rain is a Photoalbum + DVD set that's only sold in Japan now, but you can order it online through HMV. here's a description of the product from HMV Japan (scroll down for more specs) --> click (http://www.hmv.co.jp/product/detail.asp?sku=1394626). no, your eyes are not playing tricks on you. that's how expensive it is :oops: some of us posted caps of the DVD in his pics thread. check back a couple of pages from part 2. i'm going to update with a few new caps after this post ^^

here's the latest news on him. can't wait to see this show!

[20-Jul-06][sun post]
Music suddenly stop when singing, Rain being played by SMAP

Korea pop king Rain went to SMAPxSMAP to show off his singing, when he is singing 5 naughty SMAP members uses various ways to play prank on Rain and made Rain's expression cold for a while, atmosphere was tense!

SMAP, who are Japan's local idol, likes to play naughty in front of the camera, and totally don't care about their image. Previously when Madonna went as a guest, 窮혤咬(dunno how to translate, not Kimutaku, but the small eyed one yellow hair...)played Japan lady killer 漑틱숯(SongPinKen? dunnot Japanese), and made Madonna very happy. Now he will try again and his target is Korea million people charismatic guy Rain!

The day of show shooting, Rain wears a white suit to attend the "Monday Night" part, promoting his 3rd album "Move on" about to be released this September. When he is singing "I do" intently, the background music suddenly stopped, Rain had a bad expression on his face for awhile, the atmosphere at the scene was really tense. At this moment, (small eye yellow hair guy)窮혤咬 suddenly appeared and sing and danced, and used poor korean to greet Rain, but Rain did not understand a word(so funny!). At last, 꿇묶숏먼(black hair small eye guy), who knows korean well, can out to the rescue, and made funny moves and finally Rain understood what they were doing and laughed until his eyes disappeared.(hey..this reporter....but that's a funny description)

Walk big steps in Harajuku(means no obstacles/fans/etc)
Other than that, for Rain's popularity these days to walk on the streets in Japan is not an easy task, but recently he attended a local variety show, and had a chance to walk on the streets. At Harajuku where there are lots of people, Rain went to "old?" store to shop for things, but the T shirts are really small in size, and Rain who is full of muscles did not fit in the shirts. After struggling for a while, he finally bought a ed shirt for 2000 JP(~15 uS?), and laughed and says he wants to show them off in Korea. Next Friday, Rain will make an appearance on another show by (small eye black hair guy)꿇묶숏먼.
[? I don't think this is a recent shopping... I have the video on youtube if anyone wants to watch"Rain shopping in Harajuku"]

[sweep]

Helloooo!!

SMAP are really old now, right!? My Japanese History teacher shown us a TV show before of SMAP (because she was a fan..hahaha) with the lead guy of the group and there was this old lady who was really gushing because of him and wanting to hug him. He looked pretty disgusted because of the situation (old lady too). He was pretty transparent.

Oh, I wonder what the scene of Rain and SMAP looked like.
I hate the Pepsi commercial with Christina. Rain literally looked pasted on the CF.:dry:
I am excited to see the new Pepsi CF though. I hope to see all of them with JAY. I haven't seen the Pepsi news clip of that yet.

Jessica thank you for the linikies!!!

They have no subs, right? Since NJ has KBS, I am able to watch Kindergarten Love starring Kim Jae Won and Han Jimin. So far, the drama is soo cute. The girls acting reminds me of Lee da hae in My Girl though.

Speaking of My Girl. Lee Dong Wook is in the Phil now!!! My mom called and confirmed it to me. OMG I could just die! He's so cute in the pics (soompi) The vid about his arrival, man he's soo cute. During the whole short interview, he needed a translator. But when the question "Do you have a girlfriend?" came up, he quickly answered "NO!":D He understood that one. And he quickly added. "I'm shy guy!"
His expression was sooo cute! He is soooo shy!!!:D

Oh, and I'm watching "devil beside you"! I'm super liking it. TW drama. It stars Rainie Yang and Mike He. It has corny parts but the sweet scenes make me giggle. Mike He the main lead is cute.:happy:

[jessica]

i've uploaded the news clip of him attending the preimere of a movie with ISJ here --> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7v9116xZTo
pics can be viewed in his pics thread. the clothes he wore was...:wacko:

grace: so you took 2 sets of pics? ^^; thanks for going through all that trouble to show us the hanbok :hugz: you must have a very good camera phone because those pics look like it was taken by a regular camera.
korean is just as hard to write as chinese :oops: i'll try to practice once in a while ^^

teardrop: the shooting for Cyborg got delayed because of a storm. it should wrap up this month. the premiere should be around December, if i remember correctly.
i recently found out that FTTS's song "Pi" does not mean Blood, but Avoid instead :oops: there's a chinese character shown during the end of the MV and i asked my mom what it meant and she said it's Avoid. all of us misunderstood the meaning of Pi because it also means blood ><
the Pepsi CF where he danced with Jolin is not broadcasted yet. i think it should be soon ^^ are you going to buy the IJUKSA DVD? i will if i can find it in stores here. i want to see the edited scenes by the director and the special features. one thing i don't look forward to is the bad subs =/

sandy: SMAP is pretty old i think? here's the fanmade version of the Pepsi CF with only Bi on youtube --> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwx1Ru7a_GM&search=pepsi%20CF i'm sure you'll enjoy this much more than the one he made with Christina :brows:
ooh, LDW is in the Phils now?!! i'll have to look for that news clip you mentioned! i'd love to see his shy expression :love: and he even admitted to it, aww <333

[jbalibean]

omg, I'm so far behind in this thread! :sweat: I had to skim just to figure out what was going on. haha, I went MIA for awhile b/c of 'My Girl' I'm just going to respond to a few comments that really stuck out at me.

Sandy ~ I think Lee Dong Wook is absolutely adorable ~ have u seen ' My Girl'? I like his character in that much more than LJK's

Grace ~ yay, I'm so happy that you are able to take Korean classes!! :hugz: It's really a lot of fun speaking Korean. I always speak to my oppas and they laugh at me. Maybe now you can meet a hot 'gasoo' ^_~ Oh,fyi, many korean guys are good cooks, so if u meet them u could probably get them to cook for you ( I remember how u said you would like to eat Korean food) mianhae, really off topic now! :oops:

teardrop ~ thanks for the Shinhwa clip, that was hilarious!! I was shocked how much Sungie looked like a woman :ohmy: Wannie made me laugh so hard ( he looks cute with facial hair :love: ) I liked how he walked up to the actress and goes 'it's me' and she said ' I have no idea who u are':D

Xiaohei ~ Since part of your name is hei, why don't you make 'hye' part of your korean name (pronounced 'hey' or 'hei') I've always liked 'fuk' (pronounced 'fook') as part of a girl's name. 'Eun' is also pretty, but it's more common.

Jess ~ Ira and Grace are so lucky, I never see you on msn T_T

[gracecherry]

annyong~ ahh, i m soo tired from work today.i m suppose to work tmrw too, but its my mom's bday,so i m taking off.hmm, its a rare chance i m free on sundays or anydays, coz i hav classes mon-fri, working on weekends.but i force myself to do so, life is so realistic, when i think of the $ i need at the end of the mth, i got to do it,ahahha ^^

karen > ommo, ive been spending again lately, i jus bought another pair of zara jeans!! its the skinny jeans again, coz it was sale and it has furhter markdown.aigooo. then...i bought a new pair of stilettos jus now from the shop rite opposite the shop i worked in.aigoo>< and then i fell in love with his new series of shimmer eye pencil/color duo from body shop!! they hav the nice soft maroonish color, and soft aque color and soft turquoise!! i m most in luv wif the turquoise one!!!! aigoooo. i m forcing myself not to walk into body shop!

jenna > chongmal?? but my teacher says ,she thinks more chinese guys can cook than the koreans,ehehehe. mayb she was referring to her husband.haha.anyways,sadly i cant find any oppa~~ coz, its jus pure local in the class, not unless, the teacher brings the korean exchange students to our class for interaction.awww~ if theres any guy who wud cook for me, i would be sooooo touched! aigoo.like wat young jae did to ji eun in fh!! *melts* though he raised his voice commanding her to eat.aigoo.tat guy.

fizah > hi hi, u said hi to me in pm? hehe...

[panda_shine]

Grace: I was browsing at Youtube and saw the clip you made uploaded by someone! (Maybe you know her??) I was so excited lol because your clip is being spread around :happy: Whoah, the guy said I love you when you barely know him.. :glug: aigoo. Aww, I haven't visited Zara since early May.. I hope when I go in August, they'll have new arrivals because I heard their sale started earlier this month (here). You should show me the skinny jeans you have when you are free^^ Hehe.. I'll be touched too if a guy can cook for me too since I am such a lazy cook.. :whistle:

Hei-Hei: I am Chinese^^

Jessica: I just saw the other Pepsi news clip you are talking about.. the one where he's teaching the other stars. I hope he's getting along well with the other stars even though there's a language barrier :oops: .. I am really anticipating the CF!! Bi's Chinese looks funny but cute!! The 'Hun' looks pretty good.. but then I am kind of confuse with the English subtitle :tongue: I just saw the news clip with ISJ! I wnoder what movie they saw together..:angel:

teardrop: Okies, I will try to read your name hehe.. Hope it's not too hard^^

[jessica]

jenna bean: aww, mianhae =( i don't log on msn very frequently now. i'll try to catch you soon. the last time we chatted, you got cut off ><
now that you're done with My Girl, you need to catch up on oppa's news and media! have you seen the fanmade Pepsi CF yet? :whistle:

grace: i'd love to practice korean with you :hugz: his tied back hairstyle in the Pepsi CF kind of reminded me of Jun Ki's style =P i really like it too ^^
aigoo..is that man taking advantage of you?! i hate how "friendly" strangers get when they are flirting :dry:

karen: in the first news clip after he danced, i heard him say "how was it? good?" the way he said it sound so sexy :love: i think he's only communicating with them with his limited english ^^; i'm going to encode the kantame interview and hardsub it so you can re-watch it again ^^
the movie they went together is a VIP premiere for The Host. i never heard of that movie :sweat: they look like a couple in those pics. i can't wait their chemistry on screen!

this is one of the instances where he appears cold in front of his fans who waited for him, but he did look at them ^^; i know i'll have the same reaction as these fans if i get to see him again in such a close distance :oops:

Fan Account: Taiwan fans saw Bi outside JYPE today.
21 July 06

Ch to Eng: Rayndrop

This is the breath-taking account of our bier xinzilui.
Saw the Jihoon whom we are all missing outside JYPE today.
I went online as soon as I can to share this with the Taiwan biers.

(Posting with approval of Xinzilui)

It was drizzling in Seoul last night and this morning.
But when Xin came back to Seoul from Full House on her own, it was already daybreak.
They were already exhausted travelling straight from Cheongdamdong to JYPE,
So they actually wanted to leave directly after seeing the agency's entrance.
Luckily they went to the supermarket to buy some drinks before leaving.

After they've bought their drink, they rested on chairs outside the supermarket.
Just then, two Korean girls came out from the supermarket and asked if they were fans of Jihoon.
Xin replied they were using English.

The two Korean girls said they're fans of another JYPE artiste, and they've been waiting since morning.
At around 2pm, they say Jihoon going into JYPE, and that he should still be inside.
They also saw him going into the office yesterday and the day before... :sweatingbullets:

Xin was frightened and completely could not believe it.
So she waited along with the Korean girls.

After a long wait...

Jihoon suddenly appeared.
Once the Korean girls saw him, they informed Xin.

There were many cars at the exit of JYPE's carpark
One car was blocking the exit right at the front, and Jihoon's vehicle was the last one.
He walked into the carpark, and a trail of people followed quickly, running and looking for their autograph notebook.
Jihoon was walking too fast. They were so anxious they didn't even managed to call out to Jihoon.

Today, he wears a pink t-shirt, white hat and jeans
Figure looks great; you could tell its him from the back.
When Xin ran over, she still couldn't believe it's him.
When he turned around, it was really Jihoon!

There was no make-up on his face. His eyes are tiny as usual.
He was very calm, very natural and cool.

Jihoon was waiting to get on his car.
A staff member wanted Xin and the rest to leave
(They were blcoking the car. Jihoon was right before their eyes then).

They stared at him blankly, didn't call him.
Later, Jihoon glanced at them once and got on the car.
The driver seemed to have told him to ignore them.
Jihoon was expressionless then, other than an initial surprise when he first saw the fans.

Xin didn't take photos because they were afraid he'll be uncomfy.
They were also afraid Jihoon was rushing for time and that they're obstructing his car.
They just looked at the car drive away...

Originally thought Jihoon would sign an autograph for them, for they didn't get his signature in the end.
This endless rain is tiring mentally and physically indeed. But on those fair days, do you find yourself suddenly missing the rain?

[jbalibean]

Grace ~ From my experience, all the Korean guys I've known can cook, so that they can attract a girl:rolleyes: like wat young jae did to ji eun in fh!! I remember that, hahaha his expression! <333

Even if you are working, that is completely unacceptable. Sometimes, the guys at work are a little 'friendly' and I don't hesitate to reprimand them.

Jess ~ by fanmade pepsi cf, do u mean the 'da da da' mv? If so, yes. I think his Chinese pronunciation is getting better just listening to his 'you don't love me, I don't love you' at the end of the clip^^ I love the puns used at the end of the fan account

[teardrop]

omo omo OMO!!!! to any one who has seen misa OMO!!! just finished watching it today i was soooo hooked!! i started watching it at 12am but the thing was i wanted to watch it but mainly to check the discs bc my friend lent me it and i copied it and wanted to see if it work (it didn't!!! it kept jumping near the middle so had to burn all 8 discs again aigoo!!) anyways so watched the 1st disc and then the second and third, i kept telling myself it was to check the discs *coughyearight!cough*:shifty: but anyways, ending up going to bed at 7:30am and that was bc i heard my dad go into my sister's room next door and thought that he would come into my room and scold me! :tongue: so then woke up at 4pm and then watched it until 10pm and omo!!!!! i think from ep 6 on wards i cried on like every ep!! it was soooo beautifully scripted, acted and i think what made me cry the most was, well i think that as i studied media in college i can pick up the connotations and submessages of the story and i think that the director did a fantastic job of putting those in very suttle but i think the scene that got me the most was the last eppy where his mum was cooking him noodles and he was eating it and his tears in his eyes aigoo!!!! :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: but i love it and would defo put it up as a fav melodrama, along side ijuksa ok think that's pretty much sums up my day now back to the replies lol.

jess: thx for clarifying about the movie :hugz: i recently found out that FTTS's song "Pi" does not mean Blood, but Avoid instead ^^^ ah that makes more sense, when i heard that it meant blood i was like o...k.....:worry: thought that, that was a bit i dunno was a little too harsh or mayb it's my thinking. as for the ijuksa set, hmm i don't think so i'll just stick to the 1 i have heheheh :shifty: besides i want to spend that £45 on ftts lol u know their usb stick??? aigoo!!! i want it soooo much i want to pul down brian shi pants!!! lol i saw him give it to chae yeon in ll he said, "i would like to give you a present.... me!2 and then he pulled his trousers/pants down (the usb stick that is not HIS trousers/pants lol) but the thing i want the usbs stick (there's haween as well but me and my sis both want brain) but the thing is it only comes with their transition album and other stuff so that's why it's so costly :depresse: o i was gonna post this comment on the pic thread but i was too far behind. but what the hell is up with the purple/black netted vest?!? :crazy: really really looked bad, i think the only thing that i liked was his hat and i thought that it was sooo cute that he and ISJ were wearing similar hats :happy:

jenna: I liked how he walked up to the actress and goes 'it's me' and she said ' I have no idea who u are' ^^^ wha u understood what they said?? when did she say that? I went MIA for awhile b/c of 'My Girl'^^ lol same as me! was watching that every night til early in the mornin which isn't good when u have to wake up early for uni the next day and handle heavy machinery!! (well on tues anyways :bleh:)

grace: ooo u must've thought what a complete dick head wen that guy say wo ai ni oo but what really annoys the hell outta me is wen they come up to you and say ni how ma? argh!! :chair: o u said that he touched your hands? how as in a quick pat or stroking or actually holding??? :? ah i've been naughty spending as well in zarah, they're having a sale here as well and i spent like £45 but it was really good bargains though! i brought a pair os sandals for £15 which actually surprised me bc on the tag it said £25 and i also brought 2 shirts one was £5 and another was £6, although when they rung it up it came to £9 instead of £6 so i went back and they gave sold it to me @ £6 silly ppl they were like mayb the tag's upside down and i just stood there and i was thinking one i checked that already and it's not and 2 if the tage was upside wen u turned it why was the writing upside down!?!? pabo!!! :oops: also i watched the clip u made and it was really moving!!! i actually applauded the screen! :thumbsup: u did a really good job with the matching of the words, pictures and music, and cos i watched it stright after misa i was still a little emotional got a little teary eyes i had "teardrop" ok ok i know lame lame lame but still :tongue: well done!

karean: here's my name hope you can read it :happy:

Jess, you're right. The fan made version was better. Rain looked so hot. He really has a nice body.

In case you have not seen the Lee Dong wook in the Philippines clip, here it is. The news is in Filipino but the interview was in english.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fpXiYj6Q1Q&mode=related&search=

He appeared in a local(Phil)game show. When I saw that clip, I was a little embarrassed. The hosting was like:oops: :dry: (you can find it through the youtube clips). Let's just say, it could have been better. Lee Dong Wook's presence made it better. He is soooo cute and sooo shy!!! *sigh*

teardrop I watched MISA. I didn't really expect much of it. It left me depressed at the ending. Start to finish, it was depressing. It gave me a heavy heart. The cinematography was cool though. It was nicely made.:happy:

jenna Yup, i watched My Girl already,. It left me wanting more. I super duper have a crush on a Lee Dong wook.:D Lee Dong wook also made more of an impression on me than LJK.

Oh, what is Monster? Is that another name of Rain's movie? I saw Im Soo Jung(?) there also.

[jessica]

i just watched both days his Budokan fanmeeting/bday party and he was so freaking hot (and cute)! the clip showed cuts of his performances and a couple of short segments of the celebration. the best part that got me swooning was his dance in Road for Rain. they showed some clips of the DVD and then he came out dancing. if you remember the dance special with DC Doc and MC Mong he performed during the KBS Daesang awards, that was the exact dance! :excited: :drool: i'll post the clip in the DL thread after this post. OMG, he's was HOOOT! *fans self* aah, he is too much for me to handle sometimes :D

jenna bean: yes, the fanmade pepsi cf! i'm not sure if he mandarin sounded better, but that CF was better than the official one :D i was listening to Shou Ji quite often lately because i was trying to sub it. i concentrated more on the words and his pronunciation, and i find that his mandarin is growing on me ^^

teardrop: omo! you finally watched MISA!!! :excited: that's one of my favorite melodramas! you weren't here when i was promoting it like a mad woman, hehe. i've managed to convince a few Bi'ers to watch it and they loved it a lot too ^^ i feel that MISA was better scripted than IJUKSA :oops: when i learned that the same write will be working on IJUKSA, i had high expectations for the drama...but i was kind of let down at the end >< i'm curious on how the director arranged the scenes in the Director's Cut and if i'll feel differently after i watch it.
the ending to MISA really moved me. i was tearing so much during the last 10 minutes. i thought you're interested because of ISJ :tongue: wasn't she adorable in the drama? i loved her acting so much and she looked so cute and tiny, yet she was such a tough girl.
i want it soooo much i want to pul down brian shi pants!!!
:lolabove: you naughty girl! i'm sure you do :shifty: i wonder how does Hwanhee's usb stick work. i don't mind pulling down his pants either :angel:
i'm not digging his fishnet/mesh top either :oops: as if Minwoo's chain "shirt" wasn't traumatic enough T_T

sandy: thanks for the youtube link! :hugz: saves me the trouble from sifting through soompi's LDW thread ^^; aah, more shy LDW clips?! i'll have to savor every moment of it :love:

edit:
i just watched 2 clips! he was so quick to reply about the gf question :D i loved his shy smile. did you notice that the blazer he wore to the Wowowee show was the same as what Bi wore during his Vietnam concert and 2nd day Budokan fanmeeting? :rolleyes:

oops, i missed your question about the movie >< i saw other clubboxes naming that movie The Host. i think that might be correct title? ^^; yes, ISJ was there. they attended to a VIP movie premiere. i have no idea what movie that is.

[panda_shine]

MISA.. I enjoyed that drama too but however.. opposite of Jessica :shy: , I was actually a bit let down with the ending with MISA. :oops: Although IJUKSA wasn't a happy ending but I thought the fact that they died in each others arms was good enough for me? In MISA, I thought the part that teardrop mentioned was really sad too! :cry:

Jessica: I re-watched the Pepsi news clip but I didn't really catch it when he asked about his dancing >< Was he asking the person in black clothing?? Thanks for encoding the kantame interview!! Because I would definitely re-watch it with English subtitles! I'll lookout for it on the download thread :happy: I just downloaded the recent clip you uploaded :sweat:

Now that Sandy mentioned it.. I realized the movie premiere news clip in Youtube titled something "Monster"..? *confuse* And anyone know if it's an English movie or a Korean one?? Yeah, it seemed like Bi gets along really well with ISJ too.. :happy:

Jenna: You are soo lucky.. knowing all these guys who can cook. :angel: .. and you know seem to know many Korean guys^^

teardrop: I can relate to you about being hooked to dramas^^ but I've never stayed up all night to watch it maybe like until 2 or 3am. I tried translating your name in Korean and it should be: 이 (I/Yi) 취 (Chwi) 평 (Pyeong)=李 (Lee/Li) 翠 (Chui) 泙 (Ping) (Please correct me if I am wrong.. Jessica or Grace? ^^)

Hmm in the last page.. Jessica posted the news about Smap x Smap.. anyone know if there will be a download for it soon? I've seen older Smap x Smap shows for download but haven't seen the one with Bi yet..

[gracecherry]

ahh, i had off day today,and i just missed the feeling of how nice sundays are!! becoz i have never had a free sunday for verrrry long, ahhh~ now what bi said about if i want to hang out with frens then i wouldnt be able to reach out to my dreams as a singer etc...jus like, if i want the money wic i need so badly for so many things, then i cant chose to hang around with frens either, so it applies to me as well.heehe. just tat my factor is $ and bi's factor is his popularity,^^ ....i went out with some friends for ice cream, ehehe, my friend got into a new company and got sorta promoted immediately....so it was a treat,and we all chat about so many stuff, its funn~...

jess unnie, teardrop, karen, jenna > bout that man...hmm,yea. this type of ppl make me puke , and the things they do are jus arghhh....watever it is, small small problemo, ehehe, i can handle, its okie.eheh. teardrop > oh he was like...just lightly holding the 'tips' of my fingers~ so it wasnt ...tooo....u noe, yea.watever...i avoided him real fast, i just went to another side of the counter.hehehe.yea.

karen > OMMMO? reallly??? my clip on youtube?i have NOT the slightest idea!! wow...i m soo happy, someone actually did that,its a good thing that some good things are appreciated by more ppl. though *coughahemcough* that person shud at least 'notify' me,cud u pls let me hav the link.thx. but sureee.i will take pics of my jeans,and the stiletto i bought to show u.hehe.just a few days ago, i got a surprise from my HK unnie! the one i went to jay's concert with. she sent me a surprise parcel, it was a light summer peach top from zara, very feminine type, with wide shoulder design as top,u can wear halter inside or something.eheh. aww, and tat matches so well with my pinky zara jeans, the ones i showed u all last time and the light peach sweater with a belt tat i showed u ...remember? eheh.

jess unnie > unnie, dont worry i will take care of myself.those ppl cant harm or trap me.eehehe.yesss...i really liked how he had his hair tied up.it was like once, joo jo hoon did tat toooo,and i liked it as much! aigoo.jess, u are kiling me with ur description!! of that new clip, now i hav to see when i cud get to the computer lab to DL it,aigoooo......if u cant handle him, i think i m worse...oh the fan account, hmm, oh its quite saddening, he could hav at least jus smile. no need to smile all the time, jus a u noe...'hi' kinda smile wic cud last jus like 2 second.hmm...i wonder if something bad happened in the office .....so maybe he is feeling kinda down or not in good mood.sometimes i amazing how those fans could find reasons to explain for his behaviour....maybe its becoz everyone expect so much friendliness from rain, when they dont get it, its natural to get dissapointed...but if compare to other stars i think,they may not even realy bother to entertain all those random fans like what oori bi does most of the time...so...i duno...hmm.

jenna > ahh really? so they cook,thats sooo good.coz, i m a lousy and lazy cook.aigoo, i cud only make normal ,decent spaghettis...aigoo>< i think guys wouldnt like gurls who noes so little bout food.aww~

teardrop > ooh, thanks sooo much for ur comments on my mv. yes, i think its most probably coz u jus watched misa ,so the melo feeling stil lingers inside u and u watched my mv, with that music and bi's story,awww~ *huggles* glad u like it. i m soo happy when my chingoos like my work,aww.and also u hav been spendingin zara, wow, its realy expensive to conver 45pounds into my currency,awww. but...yea i do like their designs...zara & mng, are my favs, but i cant always afford it.and wow, misa is THAT nice? and...yes i understand the feeling of wanting to rush thru those dramas....jus like wat happened to me when watching MG and GOONG! its torturous to stop watching and go to bed coz its too late. but lucky i dont hav classes coz it was my sem break.lol

[xiaohei88]

jenna & grace if korean guys can cook then thats it!... I want my oppa!.. my oppa must have small eyes like mingu or bokgu..haha.. and then must sing to me gom se mari and goo reum before i sleep.. im so demanding:wacko:

I should really take up korean class.. seeing our grace doing so inspires me more!

jess unnie i so prefer the fanmade version of the pepsi cf!! cause it has more of rain..haha.. like obvious right!.. i still can believe he paired with my favorite christina aguilera.. that is so cool!!.. Which asian artist gets to team up with such a famous Western Singer such as herself?!!

jennahye fook?... haha.. sounds funny.. maybe i should get a real chinese name first.. and then.. once i have it.. i can have a korean name then.. oh my god.. who on earth has 3 names?.. well it is in 3 different language...

[jessica]

i just DLed 2 english subbed clips. one is from a game show (Sang Sang Plus). the clip was cut of the entire episode. the whole episode is subbed too and i'll post the clubbox link also ^^ the cut has him talking about his longest kiss :rolleyes:
the other one is from a CF shoot and it's a very funny news clip! they were trying to test him to see if what he said in the CF was what he believes or were they lies :D look for these clips on the DL thread ^^

karen: yes, he asked the girl in the black sweater/shirt. i think she's the one who choreographed that dance. i just noticed that she wasn't looking at him, but at Jolin while they were dancing. it was only until he asked her if his dancing was good did she look at him. after she looked at him and nodded, she turned away so quickly. she looked like she was caught off guard when he spoke to her :D here's a cap --> <3 (http://img74.imageshack.us/img74/7439/snapshot20060723163535aa8.jpg)
i'm going to post the kantame interview after this post ^^ after encoding it, the filesize increased :oops: what did you think about that clip i uploaded yesterday?! :excited:
ooh, you can type in korean too?!! yes, those words are spelled correctly :happy: Smap x Smap show didn't air yet i think. i'm sure a Japanese fan would rip it once it broadcast ^^

grace: there are times when he appears cold to his fans and that was one of the stories >< you are right. he can't always stop and greet the fans who visit him or he'll be delayed everyday. it was rude of the driver if he really told him to ignore the fans :dry: maybe they had to leave urgently since she said he was walking quickly. stories likes these informs us on what to expect if we ever see him ^^;
yes, yes! you must DL all the clips i uploaded yesterday and today! :excited:

hei-hei: i think the final cut of the Pepsi CF with Christina will have a better quality if they shot it together :oops: we can look forward to more collabs with American artists soon!

here is a happier fan report -->

Fan Account: Meeting Bi outside JYPE
22 Jul 06

Ch to Eng: Rayndrop

Some Korean fans saw Jihoon outside JYPE too. His expression was a little tense.
Today some Korean fans went to JYPE on hearing news that Jihoon is around, and they met him there.
Jihoon went to an internet cafe after his practise.

---------------------------------------

Our eyes were fixed on the internet cafe's door.
About 20 minutes later, a figure in yellow approached from a distance.

His hat was white and hair curly.
He was wearing a yellow t-shirt with pale colour jeans.

Jihoon looked like he was in high spirit.
He was wearing his ear phone all these while, and we thought he was talking on the phone.
Later, we realised he was talking to his assistant.
He turned around and bragged to his assistant, "Anyway, I won."
So cute.
He even did the "firing a gun" action in his Vita500 CF.
Like a little kid, he was very happy, a smile hanging on the edge of his lips.
(How's that! You guys haven't seen that before, eh?!)
We were really happy to see him in such high spirits too.

Very quickly, he was surrounded by a group of people.
I quickly went up too, "Your autography please?"
Jihoon, "OK".
I took out the card I've prepared and got my autograph.
Then somebody took out two albums and gave him a pen.
Jihoon said, "This pen won't work."
The person only stared at Jihoon and didn't hear him.
I quickly passed him my pen...
Many others got his autograph too.
There was one red rash on his right cheek.
His whole face was flushed red and looking very cute.
There were red rashes on his chin too.
He shaved today.
Did he shaved too quickly?

There were hair on his arm, all the way from the centre of his arms to his hands
But the length was ok, very tamed and clean
(The Korean fan really looked in detail, didn't she?)

His skin colour was different from the "Monster" premier pictures.
He was very fair.
[Rayndrop: LOL....is she going to give us the size of his pores too? :Sweat: ]

Then he got on a black car (not his artiste van)...with a swoop...

[rachelle03]

^ Haha, I had wanted to post that fan report too, jess. He really love the internet cafe huh? I think the staffs at the internet cafe are too used to him coming over that they are not hyped about it. They must have gone, "Oh, Ji Hun sshi is here again. He must be bored." :D

I missed his public appearance. >.<

[panda_shine]

I don't know why but the song "Free Way" is suddenly stuck in my head.. :angel:

And today I watched a bit of the Rainy Day concert DVD again (Ira :tongue: ).. The part when he had a press conference before the concert.. I love his outfit!! When he appeared, I was: :excited: And it was kind of funny when he was performing It's Raining and some dance step were a bit.. intimate and the fans had such shocked reaction. ^^;;

Jessica: Thanks for the hardsub interview! I just finished watching it! I still love the part when they talked about his shoulders.. and when they asked if he was a perfectionist. And when they talked about the gf part.. aigoo he looks soo shy!! :angel: hehe. He even had his hand on his side *awww* My favorite quote from the clip is this part: "It’s just that my pride doesn’t allow me to be lazy when it comes to my work." I find it very motivational but makes me guilty at the same time :tongue:
And the other clip (from his birthday at Budokan).. when he was performing Free Way.. I noticed the *ahem* habit too :oops: Btw, who are the two guys talking in the little screen in the corner? It was kind of confusing because one spoke English and the other spoke Korean..
Oh, I actually got those Hangul characters by searching.. because I use NJStar to type (if I have to) and it takes forever^^

Grace: Here's the link to your clip in Youtube: Click (http://youtube.com/watch?v=lN8JwFydxP4&search=bi%20rain%20) Thankfully the person credited you^^ oo I remember your jeans and sweater. After seeing that sweater, I sort of want something like that now hehe. I'll show you a picture of the one I want later.. :happy:

[Rayndrop: LOL....is she going to give us the size of his pores too? :Sweat: ]
LOL..:D

Rach: What do you mean you missed his public appearance??

[rachelle03]

karen: Oh, what I mean is that I'm missing his public appearance eg. performance, CF making, product endorsement... :sweat: He seems so out of sight recently (but not out of news/fan-sighting). >.<

[jbalibean]

I just watched the pepsi cf makings, I feel bad for Bi, he seemed kind of left out:worry: I'm glad that the clip was short, Jolin was already starting to annoy me:rasp:

hei ~ most Korean guys have small eyes, but only Bi's looks like this -->:D

I don't think it's that bad:whistle: now that I say out loud though, sounds kind of gangster-ish^^

Jess ~ his mando is absolutely adorable, but sometimes I have no idea what he's saying so I have to read subtitles:oops: I thought it was so cute in the one of the HK pepsi clips when he was concentrating so hard on getting the tonals right ~ kekeeke

teardrop ~ I understand parts:rolleyes: She said that, right after he said 'it's me', I'm guessing because the way he said it was very informal, something you would only say to someone you knew very well.

[xiaohei88]

i was changing channels and i came across rain's freeway mv... i was so excited and was dancing with the music..oh my god.. isnt he just the cutest guy that ever walked on this planet??!!!!!:excited: :excited: :excited:

I just cant wait for him to set foot here.. and have his concert.. he is going to set my heart on fire.. i just love it when he smiles and bite his lips... what a turn on!:D

[gracecherry]

jess unnie > argh, now why was bi treated tat way in the pepsi cf making? hmm...speaking of dance, i dont think he'll have a problem with mastering someone else's choreography.and i saw the cap u posted, yea tat lady seems like...hmm. ahha, ive got a theory, u noe some ppl would act all cool and nonchalant when they are face with someone they may hav a tiny tinge of admiration! *lol,cough*ahem*speakingofmyself* haha:D neways.ohhh no, i cant get the sangsang plus short vid. ss kept saying i cant DL more than 1 file at a time, wic i WASTN DLing any.oh can i have the pepsi making clip too? where did u and karen saw that? alrites i hav saved the links, i would go to the lib on weds to DL hopefully can get to DL successfully. yes,i noe that at times he may be rushing etc etc...and probably also something may hav happened and that he doesnt feel like smiling, coz he is human and he sure has emotions....but i cud oso understand how such respond from him wud hav been dissapointing the fans, just think of wat they went thru to catch a glimpse of him....mayb tired, waiting in the rain,etc.... aww.... so i gues... yes if we hav a chance to meet him, got to prepare for some colder respond from him too. bi is lucky to hav fans who understands him... coz if some other, they may be piss and then... they may spread around saying he is not a friendly person etc...lol,hope those kinda not-true fans wouldnt encounter such situations.lol

oooh, just thought this may be useful to u ? ^^
어 디 에 살 아 요 ?
where do you live ?
뉴 욕 에 살 아 요
I live in new york



i learn more in the korean class today~ we learn about the sound to double consonants,and to final consonants. and for words with Consonant-V-owelConsonant-Consonant, only one of the final consonants sound is pronounced, etc etc. its hmm...complicated.but it feels great now that,i cud actually read most of the song titles, and some simple conversations etc...*yay*

karen >i was just talking exactly wat u were talking in one of my long previous post.ehehe, the outfit he wore for the press con, the black blazer and the cornrolls and the hat.ahhh~ the blazer seems perfect on him, coz his body is so well build.lol. and ahh, like i asked jess,where did u see the pepsi cf making?? oh so u wanted a similar sweater too?heeh....okie, wud wait for ur pic.

[jessica]

rach: the internet cafe is very close to JYPE so he goes there often to "unwind" :D i understand what you mean. i miss seeing his news clips and performances too =( did you DL the clips i've uploaded? that might help ease the longing ^^ oooh, IJUKSA b-set! :excited: are you re-watching it now? since there are not many news on him, i was reading backlogs on soompi's IJUKSA thread. it brought back so many memories of the last episode :cry:

karen: i think i can accept Free Way now, but not Feel So Right because i've been neglecting that song ><
hehe, i'm glad you liked that interview. he looked so cute when he answered some questions, and i know then that it was a good interview :tongue: i don't know why there are 2 guys commentating for the Budokan clip. it was confusing for me at first, but i got a hang of it when i watched it a few more times. what is NJStar? :shy:
someone from sexybi uploaded the Smap x Smap clip to clubbox --> click (http://down.clubbox.co.kr/sexybi/caqj8). i didn't really like it. he looked so lost and out of place while those guys were doing their skit >< the only time i laughed was when...he was performing I Do and they were blowing the confetti at him :D

jenna bean: which clip did you watch? in the clips i've seen, he was interacting with the others but his segments were very short >< i really liked that one where he said "delicious" in cantonese :love:

hei-hei: what channel did you see his MV?! was it local? :excited: yes, i loved the way he bites his lips too. he looks cute, yet sexy at the same time. it's a killer combo, hehe <3

grace: i think you are right. it looked like she was afraid to make eye contact with him :D here's the sangsang plus clip in YSI (http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=D48479626F8B624B) (4.41MB). the pepsi news clip i have are all DLed from clubbox. sexybi should have all the clips too, but the filesizes for the two me and karen were discussing about are quite big and the duration are less than 2 mins. i converted them into .avi so they are smaller (around 12MB each). here are the links in youtube --> 1 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=raibUpr_Yr0) (this is where he asked the choreographer if his dance was good) and 2 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PTGsLD6G80w) (this is where he spoke cantonese. i had to cut out some ppl :whistle:). let me know if you want me to upload them for you ^^
maybe we are too tolerant of his cold behaviors :sweat: there are so-called fans who take it personally and spread rumors about him being a ssagaji in the past =/

thanks for the korean lesson :hugz: i don't think i'll remember it though ><; you are a quick learner! in no time you'd be able to translate short messages from Ji Hunnie! :excited:

[rachelle03]

Did we read about this before? Maybe about the fragrance but not how he played with the perfume. :D

Cloud Japan Board: Fragrance of Jihoon
2nd July 06

Most frequently asked question of Clouds...
"Please tell me what fragrance does Jihoon use?"

Recently, there seem to be a variety; there's no fixed brand. The two below are those that he uses more often recently (from his stylist):

1. Marc Jacobs: Marc Jacobs Men
2. Christian Dior: I Love Dior

Jihoon likes perfumes with clean, light scents. He also receives perfumes as gifts from Clouds very often. It was said that there was once when he was in Japan, he opened a perfume given to him by a Cloud. His hair stylist was curious and asked, "What does it smell like?"

At this moment, he suddenly started spraying the perfume all over in the car, then pretended he was a human fan and blew around, created quite a bit of wind. The entire car was filled with the scent of the perfume, marking the prank Jihoon played on everybody

Jess: I'm back loving Ji Hunnie. ^^ Local cable tv is showing IJUKSA soon, in aug. (Fizah, that's SCV Chn 55 for you. :wink2: ) And I was watching the promotional clip and a scene with bodyguard Bokgu smiling inspired me to come up with a IJUKSA b-set. But it's so hard to find a pic of Bokgu smiling sincerely. >< I had wanted to use the scenes where he first asked Eun suk to go for Ramen, then they went playing in the park. But Bokgu was so 'full of motive' there. :sweat: I have been wanting to play that IJUKSA vcd in my player. But I'd always end up remembering the sad scenes that I forgo it. :oops:
I did saw the clips you uploaded. The clip for the CF shooting interview was funny, esp when I saw him laughing away. He looked so energetic and young then. It was after SangDoo, isit?

hei ~ most Korean guys have small eyes, but only Bi's looks like this --> :D
That is oh so true! lol.

[gracecherry]

jess unnie > me fast learner? oh...i m not sure, maybe its jus becoz my interest and passion is there. hehe. rite now i dont even noe if my mind is thinking straight, i m so naturally...finding out about education in korea, scholarships and programmes etc.hmmm....ooh ok, i saw the first clip of pepsi making, hmm, when he asked the teacher, her respond was like 'huh? hmm....'
