0:02~0:16
Rain winning the hearts of women with his sexy dance, makes time to go to the gym to keep his figure in the midst of his busy life.

‘Section TV’ tries to invite you to his daily life.

0:22
(At SBS FM radio station, Rain posed for photos with gagman ‘Lee Bong-Won’s son who is Rain’s fan.)

0:35
Rain : He is quite good-looking. (to the boy)

0:38~0:40
PD : Hello, Rain. I know you’re very busy these days.

0:41~0:46
Rain : Yes, I’m busy being active with my album. I’m going to work out to the gym.

0:47~0:49
PD: Can I go with you?

Rain : Sure.

0:56
(Rain is warming up before exercising.)

1:04~1:07
(At first, Rain started exercising smiling, but he was dripping with sweat already.)

1:08
PD: You’re doing a lot of perspiring after a few minutes.

1:10~1:19
Rain : It’s light weight, but lifting this type of dumbell requires a high output of physical energy.

(Health team’s advice : Spend much time in exercising with light-weight dumbell in order to make your muscles more supple.)

1:21~1:25
(PD: When Rain wiped the [sweat] off his forehead with his shirts, his six pack was shown)

1:26~1:27
PD: You are inwardly showing off your six pack.

1:33
Rain: They are my dance team.

1:40
Rain : This is our dance team leader.

1:42~1:46
Rain : That is singer ‘Lee Hyo-Ri’s team leader, but [he] is working with me for a while.

1:49~1:51
PD : Section TV also has a reporter who has such a muscular body.

(The reporter appeared) [ROFL! ^@@^]

2:16~2:23
Reporter : I’m boiling in the jacket, so please zip me down in the back. And its rent guarantee has expired. [LMAO! ^@@^]

2:24
(The training were so much more intense)

2:34~37
Rain : These are my trainers. If you want, they’ll help to make your muscles strong.

2:38
Reporter : Can you do it in a short time?

2:39
Trainer : Sure. That’s right up my alley.

2:40
Reporter : Please check how my muscles are before exercising.

2:44
Trainer : But, however much I may try, I can not do it sometimes.

2:46
Reporter : Can you two show your six packs?

2:56
(The dancer with a beard has some analogy to Vincent Van Gogh) [Interesting! Stephe ^@@^]

2:58~3:05
The Dancer : My actions are compelled by Rain and obviously not spontaneous. I’m often rudely awakened by his phone ringing (hesitantly) [Does he mean by Rain always calling him, maybe? Stephe ^@@^]

3:20
Rain : Just repeat once more. [Playfully daring the guy to say that again? Haha! ^@@^]

3:22~3:27
The Dancer: I have nothing to complain of. Rain is the best. [LOL! Yeah, that’s wise. ^@@^]

3:28
Reporter : When you exercise, what goes through your heart, your mind?

3:31~3:33
Rain : I think, “No idea why I have to do this work.”

3:34~3:38
Rain : Exercise seems to be what gives me the strength to go on.

3:39
Reporter : Please show me your original six pack dance.

3:53
(Reporter is holding a demonstration with spelling the word ‘왕’ that means ‘six pack’ on his stomach)

4:05
(Finally, Rain is exercising his muscles in stomach)

4:06
(They want to bet money (100 KRW))

4:26
Reporter : When you do such an exercise, what good will it do you?

4:28
Rain : My muscles will be just well-developed.

4:30
Reporter :Why don’t you arm [wrestle] with your trainer?

4:31
Trainer : I’m confident of winning.

4:35
Rain : I bet I’ll win this game.

4:39
Rain : Why should I have to do this?

4:42
Reporter : I hope this game experience is a memorable one.

4:47
Rain : Are you left-handed?

4:55
(Oh my!)

4:59
(Rain was totally blown away)

5:02
(Rain confronted the trainer with his right hand once again)

5:09
Rain : (Just edit this part)

-After exercising-

5:18~5:21
Reporter : You’ve clashed with singer ‘Lee Hyo-Ri’ and gagaman ‘Park Myung-Soo’ since April. I’ve already met the two, and this is the last meeting.

5:22~5:25
Rain : The last one means No.1.

5:26
Reporter : Have you heard of ‘Park Myung-Soo’s new song?

5:27
Rain : You mean ‘Fyah’? (Rain praised ‘Park Myung-Soo’ of being a good singer) His album has been well made.

5:32
Reporter : How was his previous album?

5:34~5:35
Rain : I don’t know because I’ve never heard anything about it before.

5:38
Reporter : As far as I know, you debuted in the name of ‘Fan Club’ in 1988. [Did the reporter say 1988 by mistake? The year was 1996, I think. In 1988, Ji-Hoon was only 6 years old. Stephe ^@@^]

5:33~6:02
Rain : I debuted the same year as male group ‘Sinhowa’ and girl group ‘Pinkl’, but our team was ending up as the meat in the sandwich, because our agent failed and our representative escaped.

-Special tofu dish-

6:10
Reporter : Dumpling with fresh taste!

6:12
Rain : Like me? [LOL! ^@@^]

6:14
Reporter: You are so playful these days as if you are a wicked gagman. [comedian]

6:17
Rain : Sorry. To survive, I have to do such a thing.

6:19
Reporter : You’ve come to do your musical activities at the same time as ‘Lee Hyo-Ri’. How do you feel?

6:21~6:31
Rain : It’s nice that I can work that way. ‘Lee Hyo-Ri’ versus Rain seems to generate a significant synergy effect.

6:32~6:39
Reporter : You attended the wedding of actor ‘Jang Dong-Geon’ and actress ‘Goh So-Young’ recently. When are you going to get married?

6:40~6:47
Rain : I want to get married before I’m 34~35 without question, after achieving my dream in the next 6~7 years. [Sounds good to me, sport! ^@@^]

6:48~6:50
Reporter : You confessed in a program, by saying “I want to be raised from [nurtured by] a sexy woman.”

6:51~6:58
Rain : I can eat even my feed being raised [he’s very easy to nurture?], but she should be closest to my ideal type.

6:59~7:11
Rain : I think it is not until 30s that men have got to prove they are man enough, and men usually act like babies before each of their women.

7:12~7:23
Rain : I got a physical exam at the hospital recently. And the doctor is saying my physical age is the same as that of those who are a decade younger than me, but in terms of the inner body age, I’m around 39 years old.

7:24
Reporter : You seems to feel something great is missing in your late 20s.

7:25~7:34
Rain : I think I’ve spent most of my youth working. [Really? We didn’t notice. 🙂 ^@@^] I should have dated a lot when I’m powerful [during my prime], but I couldn’t do so. I’m ashamed of myself. (He hid his face in his hands)

7:35
Reporter : I’ve heard you’ll be active with Hip Song which is a rap song at first time.

7:38
Rain : Compared to ‘Love Song’ in which I push for a change, ‘Hip Song’ is a typical song for me.

7:45
Reporter : Can you try some of the song?

7:59~8:07
Rain : I didn’t know you could gyrate your hips so well. Try once more.

8:08
Reporter : I’m well known as our town Sangdo-dong’s Pelvis.

8:11
Rain : I’m well known as our town Apgujung-dong’s Pelvis.

[Eh, I’ve no idea, Clouds… *shrug* — Stephe ^@@^]

8:14
The two : Let’s confront each other some other time.

8:16
Rain : Hello, Section TV family. Are you doing well? I hope you’ll be always healthy, and thanks so much for loving ‘Love Song’. I’d appreciate it if you would also love ‘Hip Song’ a lot.

Thank you.
