[article] Gahhh. Here we go again.
Of course it’s come up in conversation again, even though Rain himself hasn’t said another thing about it yet. *rolling our eyes*
The LAST thing out of Rain’s own mouth in his interview late last year was planning to go into the military in the latter half of 2011, Red Muffler, releasing an album, working on a concert tour. So when some media (who obviously needed something to write about) declared J.Tune said Rain is going in the summer a few days ago, we just looked the other way.
Wow. 
At least this follow-up was published.

Exactly when will Rain join the army?
The issue of singer Rain’s joining the army has come up in conversation again.
During the phone call with Newsen on February 25th, an official from Rain’s agent expressed, “Rain is thinking of joining the army in late 2011. If he receives formal notification from the Military Manpower Administration, he plans to follow it.”
But, there is recently a groundless rumor going round that he’ll join the army this summer, which surprises everyone. The official defended that report, saying, “The information on what he could join the army after this summer has been miscommunicated as if he will this summer.”
He added, “Rain is planning to shoot movie ‘Red Muffler’ and to do his album before he joins the army. So it is in a state of flux now as the plan on when to join the army is subject to change.”

Yes I agree, the actual time when Rain will be going to the military is like up in the air. Of course everyone loves to make assumptions without waiting for Rain to actually announce it himself. Thanks Cloud USA for always setting it atraight.
