[ETA: Someone needs to get in the game] What? Should we be issuing a U.S. Alert? O_O
"Give me a break!"
[*ETA: And so now J.Tune has also followed up these things with “What delayed service? What Hollywood film?” Just like the other day… “What Red Scarf?” And “What Manila concert?” (oh, really?) “Rain’s not going to be working with the writer of Chuno on Fugitive…” (oh, really?)
Yes, I am cracking up right now. Is anyone else thinking that things surrounding Rain have become incredibly tedious, and for NO good reason?
Let me give you a tip, J.Tune. (You should listen in too, JiHoon.) It would do you, us, and Rain’s career a ton of good if you would stop being so close-mouthed and get in the game. Rain has a huge following that needs—no, deserves to be kept up to speed on the news surrounding him as much as possible. That is what is necessary to properly maintain and grow a successful fan base. Fans need to be FED.
We would much rather hear Rain’s news and updates directly from YOU, and have a consistent relationship with YOU, rather than the media, but you don’t seem to be interested. You seem quite happy leaving us all dog-paddling in media waters, wondering what the heck is right and what is wrong, what is fact and what is fiction. Would it really be that much skin off of your back to develop a stable relationship with Rain’s fans, for his sake, and give information in a timely manner to where we didn’t have to go looking elsewhere and getting confused? Would it be that difficult for you to use JiHoon’s websites (the Korean AND English sides) as DAILY tools for what is truth and what is rumor?
Stop leaving us to the media! Tell us what is and is not going on yourself, which is what you should be doing anyway. Why am I even having to say this? Huh? — ^@@^]

ORIGINAL POST
I’m… not sure. I… don’t know.
Terri and I had already predicted that when Rain went into the military, it would NOT be before late spring at the earliest, seeing as he had a movie to film. (Folks were freaking out about him going in January 2011, which was ludicrous— he couldn’t possibly film a blockbuster between the end of Fugitive now and the early next month. Come on, people! *shaking my head*) Not to mention trying to see as many fans as he could to say goodbye properly.
So. These write-ups are quite welcome, indeed.
But these write-ups have also BLOWN OUR MINDS. Did you read them closely? Hollywood movie? What Hollywood movie? The Red Scarf remake, if indeed that is coming, is a KOREAN film. Or could the fighter pilot movie be a U.S. one? Is there one movie on the way, or two? O_O
And suddenly, his tweet from October 6th again slams into the front of our brains… “While my producer in U.S.A. and I were talking about the scenario of new film, the producer praised the wonderful taste of Korean cuisine.”
*staring sideways at JiHoon and wondering what the heck we don’t know* *slow grin*

Star News 12/7/2010 —
Rain’ll enter the army in the latter half of next year after shooting a Hollywood film.
Rain says that he plans to enter the army in the latter half of next year after shooting a Hollywood film.
Rain talked about the terms of entering the army at KBS TV’s Wednesday and Thursday drama series ‘The Fugitive Plan B’ farewell party last 6th.
On that day, Rain expressed as, “I’ll enter the army in the latter half of next year after shooting a Hollywood film I’ve recently arranged my schedule to fit into.”
And, he said, having a great affection for ‘The Fugitive Plan B’, “‘The Fugitive Plan B’ series haven’t enjoyed high viewer ratings, but the drama’s continuity in a unique way in a tightly woven plot has created a huge fan base for it. I’m grateful for the opportunity to have made a lot of friends during the drama shoot. I think this drama will win wide acclaim among the public as time goes on.”
Adding, “I really wanted to appear in a soap drama, but I think ‘The Fugitive Plan B’ can be far better received by the overseas critics because it is a detective drama with lots of suspense.”

Rain reveals his enlistment plans.
After the conclusion of “Fugitive: Plan B“, Rain ended up revealing his enlistment outline after he was asked about his future plans.
The singer/actor stated, “Although ‘Fugitive’ didn’t record high viewer ratings, I believe it to be a drama that has allowed me to learn more about people. It also earned a ‘mania’ fanbase and had me acknowledged as an actor.”
Regarding his enlistment plans, he stated, “I’m timing everything now. I’ll be entering the miitary in the second half of 2011, after I film for a Hollywood film.”
Rain is currently busy with preparations for his year-end concert, “Adieu 2010 with RAIN“, which will be held on December 31st.

@kongsao….here’s what i notice.
Rain is an independent entertainer who is in charge of what he does. he operates under a current contract with JTune.
so, that being the case, JTune is only obligated to announce any events carried out by Rain under his contract with them. the MS would be announced by JTune because it will have an impact on the contract between them and Rain. should Rain decide to participate in other events, i.e., the Phillipines or Germany, whoever handles those events are responsible for announcing and publications. it seems to me that JTune dosen’t announce these other events because Rain makes the decision himself and it’s something happening outside the scope of JTune. Rain doesn’t seem to have a personal publicist to make these kind of annoucements for him. we are use to artist having spokepersons for them. but apparently that’s not the case in Korea.

Goosebumps at Rain’s tweets. @Mari, judging by his tweets I would say that’s a big YES, Somebody has made him aware of our comments at the CLOUD website. Many of us told him he needed to get some rest during the filming and he expressed that he took our concern to heart. So it sounds like he’s aware to me. I am especially glad, as I know I wondered out loud on the CLOUD site if he even saw our messages. Well, I finally feel like it’s a good chance he has. SO PSYCHED!!!
Ummm, JTUNE…..GET IT TOGETHER!

Yes!!!!! I am pretty sure that someone told him about us and he is checking us out. That he tweeted in english was awesome!!! I almost drop my cellular phone when I saw them!! Argh!!! Maybe KBS has something to do too coz we have left comments in their site and he has a good relationship with them. I left a message about their videos at their estore too. Told them that anything of Rain will be welcome and that I have bought some stuff of Rain in other asian sites and takes too long to receive them. Letting them know that we are interested in Rain’s videos and stuff. Let’s see if they heard. I mean, if they wanna make some extra money they should give us what we want now that we are using their site more often.

Gosh, why these people at JTunes don’t make up their minds? You know what I think? They do it on purpose to keep people guessing. But at the end is bad coz his fans get all confused and can’t prepare as good. Why denied to his fans information? We should be the first to know coz we are supporting him and we love him. JTunes does it again!! I hope Rain ditch them for good when his contract is over.

Something interesting, is how J Tune hasn’t confirmed the Red Muffler movie or really made any comments about it even though that article came out and basically said he was in the movie. But when there is a supposed quote of him saying he is doing a Hollywood movie and when he is enlisting they jump right on try to reject those rumors. What is up j Tune!!!!!lol

but JTune did make a comment. they said it has not been confirmed yet. their statement is posted on a blogsite called myjungjihoon
and then a Cloud posted their statement on rainlegend after she called them.
i did read a article that says the co-star’s contract is not final yet and that particulars still are being worked out. the same article says things are complete as far as Rain is concerned. maybe JTune is waiting until everything is as it should be before they announce anything officially. they’ve had some legal problems in the past, so maybe they are being careful. i’m just trying to look at what the possibilities could be, before i judge them.

Tip. well now, i just read on a fan blogsite that the “Red Muffler” is not confirmed yet and also the US film or the Military enlistement. NOT CONFIRMED according to JTune and so stated by a Cloud who contacted JTune to see if it was true.
but strange, i also just watch a youtube from YStar news (it’s in Korean), but it’s talking about the Red Muffler, Rain and the co-star. GO FIGURE. i’ll just wait until JTune confirms.

@ Busybee Oh,yeah, I am trying to prepare myself for that moment but I know that I am going to cry rivers. Sigh. The only way I am going to survive this is getting information and I know that anything that he is going to do during that period of time is going to be here in Cloud USA so that is covered. There are other actors going through military service right now and it seems that they have a 5 or 6 months of training *Ha! coz he needs more training learning to handle arms or learn combat techniques plzzzz!!!* and then they start with other jobs. I have no idea what he is going to do after training. During those months of training it seems to me; coz I read some of others actor’s info. that they can’t have contact with media. I really don’t know how it works but that is what I have learned so far. Lord, I think is going to be a difficult time for him but hey, maybe not. I have learnd through this year that Rain can surprise you so I am trying to think positive. I know that he would like that.

@Marisara and Busybee I know it is going to be hard to not cry a river on enlistment day. Busybee where did you hear him say new music.

Rain tweeted in english after this, sooo maybe he is becoming aware of us little Clouds in US? He also said that Fugitive has created a new fan base; is he talking about us?
