What’s the use of having a 1.5 million won magic stick if you can’t control it?
Rain’s magic stick (the one he is holding in his right hand) is apparently worth a pretty penny. The stick lights up and glows for all to see. And as the little saying goes, “seeing is believing.”
The other magic stick was captured doing its own thing at the taping of the television show, “Sang Sang Plus, Season 2″ on November 4th.
Now we know which one is his real magic stick.

On the latest episode of KBS’ Sang Sang Plus Season 2, Lee Sung-jin, comeback (*edit)NRG singer tried to jog’s Rain’s memory with his good deeds during the cockroach-drinkingdebut years. He brought up instances when the singer invited “magic stick” for a ride in a limo or when they went out drinking together. Unfortunately, the “world star” can only remember drinking together just once.
Maybe it was because he drunk so much that he could not remember?
Oh well, guess Lee Sung-jin won’t be able to ride Rain’s popularity wave to garner more attention for his return back in the media spotlight. Kudos for trying.
Our favorite ESL student Rain, will now soon be starring along side Jun Ji-hyunin a new drama entitled, “Four Seasons”, which will be broadcast by SBS network. The story is supposedly about a war correspondent (Jun) and an adopted child (Rain) who later becomes a mercenary for France.
This seemingly uninteresting drama is costing a whopping 1.5 billion won (though they’ll most likely make it all back since Magic Feet is in it) and with greater reach beyond Korea. The drama is expected to be aired in China and Japan as well.
This will be Jun Ji-hyun’s first return to the small screen in ten years. The natural beauty is most known for her role in the classic romantic comedy, “My Sassy Girl”, with Cha Tae-hyun. As for Rain, it will have been 3 years since his last drama, “A Love to Kill” with Shin Min-ah.
“Four Seasons” is set to air in February of 2009.
It seems with all the music promotions, magazine covers, TV appearances and now this new drama, that Rain is trying to dig his magic feet deep back into Korean soil…. Maybe he’s giving up on his American dream? Should he?
Yep, the woman above in the green pajama pants is Lee Hyori. The pop diva is getting dipped by comeback star, Rain on the upcoming episode of the show, “Family Outing” (패밀리가 떴다). The 2 stars have a bit of a history together….
from the day you came
i’ve been touched by an angel
its like i’ve known you in a longtime
like two stars that shine
the dream in found in you
and let me think of you
i am gonna let you know
ain’t gonna let you go
you showed me the meaning of love
and i am forever in love
you make me feel something new
and i want to be with you
you’re the air so i can breathe
the emptiness of what could be
the loneliness without you would be
shows everything you mean to me
if i could keep you all my life
the way that i feel for you inside
give me your heart for the rest of your life
i know i can’t survive when i feel the pain inside
now i realize that your no longer mine
but i am hoping that the pain will ease in time
coz it hurts me so
and now its time to let go
there a loneliness in my heart
deep inside it hurts
i hear my heart crying
it feels like dying
i want to forget the fast
and dream tomorrow
i want to save my heart
for care and loving too
now your gone its time for me to carry on
but i just can’t go on
if i should ever find someone new
i know his better than you
but before you say goodbye
please stay for a while
put your lips on mine
co’z i don’t want to waste this time ….
Rain was recently awarded a presidential commendation for this money saving skills by Financial Services Commission on the 45th Savings Day.
Since debuting in 2002, Bi has contributed back to the motherland by donating portions of the profits from his performances to underprivileged children and victims of the Tae-an oil spill.
The comeback singer brings new meaning to ’saving for a rainy day’.
Kim Ji-soo was also awarded for her money-saving skills
One of the 3 largest broadcasters in Korea, SBS, has announced that Rain’s fresh track, “You” will be banned from television.
SBS deemed the song as inappropriate due to the suggestive lyrics:
I am stuck in your lumps
hide your rump, because of you I need to take a dump
Wet my body so I can feel it whenever
Your sexy lips are touching me all over
Ok. If you have read this far, you are probably thinking, “WTH”? “because of you I need to take a dump.” Well, that’s not Rain’s line, it’s ours. We just had to add it in because it rhymed with “lump” and “rump.”
Hee hee. Here is the real translation:
I am stuck in your lumps
hide your rump,
because of you, I am going crazy
Wet my body so I can feel it whenever
Your sexy lips are touching me all over
The original:
“너의 그 볼륨에 내가 꽂혀 있어” “엉덩이를 감춰 너 때문에 정말 내가 미쳐” “내 몸을 적셔 언제나 내가 느껴지게” “섹시한 네 입술이 날 만지고 있어”
Well, we know that SBS has a track record of not making smart moves. So by banning Rain’s song from television will only create more hype for Rain and his new album. Duh.
Rain is the first cover model to be featured on 2 big magazine covers in Korea- Esquire and Harpers Bazaarfor November 2008. Generally, these magazines slap on foreign top models, but now they have gone overboard with 2 covers with domestic bred Rain. Unfortunately for Rain, the magazine thinks it’s “Beginning to Rain all over the world” as opposed to him already ruling the world with his “rainisms.”
The hit drama, ‘Full House’ is expected to return to the small screen with “Full House, Season 2” since it aired in 2004.
The sequel will be taped in various locations around Asia as well as include Chinese and Japanese actors to make the drama a truly Asian one. As for the main cast, there is no word yet on whether Rain or Song Hye-kyo from the original will join the sequel. However, the producers would prefer to have at least one of the main actors as part of the cast in Season 2.
Already, rumor has it that 20 episodes have been written. “Full House, Season 2″ is expected to air in August 2009.
