[Exclusive/event info] “It’s Rainism in London.”

[Cloud USA] Thusly ends the announcement that has been made on the MCM London Rain Event page that is now up on Facebook. And here is the rest of that announcement:

“MCM cordially invites you to an afternoon rendezvous with Rain at MCM London.

2-3pm only.

Rain will be making an exclusive personal appearance at the London MCM store to sign MCM Stark Backpacks purchased at the event.”

RAIN will only be available for a very short time and so numbers will be very limited. Only one backpack per person. No other items will be will be signed. You will not be able to reserve backpacks prior to the event. Security on the door will be strict. No cameras, phones or mobile devices will be allowed in the store.

It’s Rainism in London.

[Exclusive] Cloud USA’s Word on the Street: We were wondering if perhaps the Sloane Street shop was being made MCM’s flagship store, perhaps, but a little birdie is telling us no, that is not the case, which is why there was no publicity (makes sense).  It is simply an impromptu event, set up by MCM, that sprang up rather quickly because JiHoon happened to be in London (not on business), and seeing as he is a spokesperson for MCM and he’s seldom in the U.K where fans can see him, why not?

As we understand it, his schedule is über-TIGHT right now, so he can’t be at the store for long, and there won’t be time for photo ops or interviews (except for the photographs that will be professionally taken during the actual backpack/autograph session and later emailed to those fans). The store is pretty tiny, and we’re told that Rain would have preferred a larger fan meet, but sometimes things just can’t be helped. The whole thing will probably not last more than an hour, so good luck to those of you who plan on attending. And please be careful. Keep it together and don’t get hurt.

The MCM Stark backpacks come in three colors (Black, Red, Classic Cognac) and in two sizes, medium and large. The medium bag will be £365; the large £475 (Wow, ouch, pretty steep, especially for students, but then we are talking about a luxury brand item here, folks). Don’t worry about buying something if you can’t afford it, fans.  Keep things in perspective… but do be on Sloane Street if you can to support Rain while he’s there. Hopefully some French fans might make a road trip to London for the day…? 🙂

If we lived right across the Channel, I know we would!

Cloud USA does have a correspondent who is already on the scene, primed and ready, so do stay tuned.  We thank Jang-Ho Kwon of the MCM team in London for speaking with us.

And thank you, JiHoon, for taking precious time out of your personal schedule, when you didn’t have to, and giving it to fans who usually don’t get to see you on their home soil.

    According to Rain’s fans living in the UK, they saw Rain at London Club yesterday (January 23rd, 2011). n the club, their eyes surely showed open admiration as they looked at him, “He’s SO HOT!!!!” (Unfortunately, he didn’t peel off his shirt.) So many of his British fans have gone wild with excitement by saying they will go see him this Tuesday whatever, therefore, many pictures and video clips of Rain are expected to be posted on the Internet.
    **It is said Rain is scheduled to attend the MCM event on January 25th (Tuesday)
