[spoilers] RAINY DAY Season 2, episode 43.

Asia broadcast, 11/27.  Let’s continue running and running!

So, we pick up from last week, where JiWoo and JinYi have fled the police/Yakuza standoff at Kieko’s daddy’s compound, and they split up in the back streets of Japan, with Detective DoSoo hot after JiWoo, and the Yakuza henchmen on JinYi’s heels.  Good grief — Rain, NaYoung, and JungJin had to go up and run back down the killer steps up that hill several times.  No wonder JungJin was clutching at his right leg.  Sheesh—

(*GASP* Okay, pause the video for a moment.  Just… pause it.  And marvel at the size of Rain’s foot close up as he shows us how hard all the running has been on it.  It’s really… huge, that foot.  And you can see at a glance how well he takes care of those handsome five-toed tootsies of his.  Woahhh… You know what they say, cold hands… warm heart, large feet… lar — *shaking my head, slapping myself back into reality* Ughn. Sorry.  Back to the episode.)

Ahhh, so now it’s time for the lemme dive over this here car like the stuntman I am caper, where he put the Fear of God into Director Kwak by pretending to have hurt himself.  “Oh — he really scared me!” JiHoon the Jokester.  LOL!  Kwak should have clocked him one upside his head for that.

It’s cool, briefly going through the stunts from that day, and watching Rain and JungJin running off weight.  Director Kwak took them to their limits (and still is, as filming for the ending episodes is still going on at the time of this post — well, actually, Rain should be settling back in at home in S.Korea after the 16th Asiad in China, but you know what I mean) and these two Korean powerhouses met his expectations every time.  What a team.

LOL!  Poor tired baby, spread-eagled on the pavement.

We knew that where the filming went, fans gathered en masse.  Well, now you can truly see that in this footage.  They were everywhere.  (My, but JiHoon’s pants were fitting well that day… oh who am I kidding, his pants fit well every day.)

Okay, here’s the setup for JiWoo to leap from a van onto a flatbed truck for one of his and DoSoo’s knockdown, drag out fights.  Nice leap, Rain.  Though not surprising, what with your 87Eleven stunt training and all of those times you’ve come leaping up out of a concert stage trap door, airborne. 😉  I see Mr. Double hovering there beside the van too… so I’m thinking that the actual leap from the car to the flatbed was too dangerous for Director Kwak’s comfort.

And so the first fight of the century ensues on the flatbed, with a slip up or two, in all that oppressive summer heat.  Poor Rain AND JungJin.  They both get a heart for this.  ♥ ♥  Ahhhh!  Relief!  We’re back inside an air-conditioned building for some filming.  But oh crap — there’s Yakuza daddy, and JiWoo had better get to running.  (Okay, the production guy on the left, in the green shirt, isn’t helping one bit when it comes to Rain keeping a straight face.  Gee, thanks, dude! LOL)

And after the second fight of the century in the warehouse (ouch!), running in Beijing, and pausing to take production stills, we’re out of there for this episode.  Great work, JiHoon!  Enjoy him, fans.

  1. So cute how he “plops down” in the director’s lap to look at the last take he did. There’s definite comraderie there. (Smile)

  3. It’s great that people get to see how much effort Rain and other members of the cast have to put so the series look believable. I mean, is true that they don’t actually hit each other but all the running, movements and sweat are there. Let’s see how many of those critics get to do something like that. I bet they don’t even get to run right. LOL Rain is such a hard worker; he sweats, he is hurt but he keeps smiling and doing his job. In top of that his acting is amazing and his compromise is unbreakable. That’s why he is the best of the best and that’s why he is my inspiration. Go baby!!!!
