Rain is the most influential star in Korea for two years running, according to Sisa Journal.

This year, like last, Rain has been chosen as the most influential star in Korea by Sisa Journal.

Rain is number one (19.2%)
Yu Jae-Seok second (16.3)
Kang Ho-Dong third (16.0)
Bae Yong-Joon fourth (10.0)
Kin Je-Dong fifth (8.0)
Girl Generation sixth (7.1)
Lee Hyo-Ri seventh (6.8)
Jang Dong-Gun eighth (6.5)
Park Jin-Young ninth (4.6)
Ahn Sung-Ki tenth (4.3)

The people surveyed :
100 each from the 10 foremost experts on administration, education, the press, law, enterprise, government, financing, entertainment, social organization, and religion.

How many : 1000 in total (men : 845, women : 155)
How : by a telephone survey through the questionnaire.
When : July 22~30, 2010.
By Whom : Media Research

(Thanks to rain bird @Rain-eu. for this information)

Wow.  Je-Dong is a really popular TV personality, and Jae-Seok and Ho-Dong are incredible comedians who are just about everywhere you look, hosting countless shows and public events and celebrity events.  Dong-Gun is one of the coolest actors in Korea.  JYP, Hyo-Ri, and Girls Generation need no introduction.  And yet all of Rain’s efforts and endeavors have him right there on top of the heap—again.

And the vast majority of voters were influential men themselves.  That says a lot about how much Rain is truly respected.

Congratulations, Ji-Hoon…!

  5. @lotus6000,

    Yes, being an American superstar would probably bring on some more stressful challenges. However let’s face it, he already has MAJOR stress with the demands of the Asian market anyway. The bottom line is, either he will or he won’t crossover further into the American market. Personally, I would love it but I won’t stop being a Cloud if he doesn’t. If he feels the stress is too much and he can’t handle it, I am sure he will not do it.

    I don’t know if he believes in a Higher Power (GOD, as I call Him)…..I think I read that he does, and if that is so, then I would HOPE that Ji-Hoon would call on that Higher Power when times get too stressful to bare. I have my own opinions about the U.S. market, mainly that there are VERY FEW of us with a little “tint” to our skin tones that STAY “The Hot Thing” for a long, extended period of time anyway (in that particular market). Oh, there are exceptions but they are few and far between. So that’s why I say you have to “strike while that iron is hot.”

    Oh well, I guess I’ll be learning some Korean then…………

  6. Ok now you may think I’m nuts, But maybe you shouldn’t do to much of the American thing and from the beginning I’ve said I prey you don’t blow up like MJ(RIP) cause that kind of fame is to hard on a person you might lose some of your goodness,so I love you just the way you are sweet and honorable. MUAH JiHoon

  7. Congrats Sweet JiHoon!, I know your loyalties are at home and they should be but I don’t think your fan base would go down if did more in American but I think it would make you even more the king of your country (if you know what I mean) not only that don’t look for Asian parts but make the parts you like yours that’s how whoopie Goldberg did it pictures are just not really made for minorities we have to do it our self. I’m sorry if I’m sounding like a broken record but I’m so sure of your talents and you seem like such a sweet and honorable man that I just don’t want what you have to go to waste. MUCH RESPECT FRIEND JiHoon
