[clip] Rain’s interview for CJ One: Expand your life.

If an English translation of this becomes available, we’ll be sure to bring it to you here.

In the meantime, enjoy the visuals of Rain talking about his TIME 100 time line, his 2010 MTV Badass odyssey (okay, Hoon, you’ve been enamored with Scarlett for over a year now… psssst, just letting you know she’s FREE. So go, go NOW. *grin* FYI: I’m not talking about “getting to the church on time” necessarily, either), and… did they ask him about what he would be doing at age 40, maybe? I’ll tell you what he’ll be doing—still knocking women out cold with that smile!

  1. I thought of two more names that would be good for him, More So on screen.

    1) Sandra Bullock, how could I forget Sandy one of my favs. She and Bi both have million watt smiles and she is an All Around Class Act on a LOT of levels. On screen they would “kill” it. Imagine Ji-Woo’s slapstick with ANYTHING Sandra. Bi you wanna do romantic comedy and have a blockbuster on your hands? Sandy is your girl! She has class (I think) and quiet sauciness, she wouldn’t tell after…..Ssh. She knows how to rock a mini and stilettos and looks Hello Good with younger men (including your man Scarlett…..oops your ex-man….ouch!). I also think she and Bi are both naturally funny (without a script).

    2) America Ferrara, absolutely Loved her Ugly Betty character. She and Bi would be great comedy, but also great in a young drama (angst…trying to find themselves as young adults). Off screen, she carries herself in a classy, private way something he would like. She’s Latina so I already Know she’s naturally “saucy”, right Mari? (SMILES) She’s a pretty girl to me………(Sisterhood of Traveling Pants) comes to mind.

    Now, I DO GET that Bi, culturally, is used to teeny-tiny-itty-bitty girls so if he gets with American girls, he’s just gonna have to get used to women with a little “meat” on their bones. On my earlier list Thandie Newton is probably closest to what he’s used to seeing on the day-to-day. She’s really tiny. Anyway, these are the women I think would be good for him on and off screen. It’s probably time he came out of what he’s naturally used to. I’m SURE he’s Already embracing that concept…..he’ll have to in Hollywood films. Well that’s all…………………..(SMILES)

        • Hey, I’m just going by what the man keeps saying out of his own mouth. He likes curves and something to hold on to, so “please don’t diet.” LOL Sexy, confident, sweet, a good cook (there goes food into it again), fit (as in stamina, not skin and bones). He likes him a healthy girl who’s poppin’ and looks good in her clothes. And he’s a leg man, lord. hahahaha

      • Oh yeah Bia, saucy is latinas second name! Lol!! Another of my girls who could easily match Rain is Jennifer Lopez. Jenny can get down with our boy in so many ways. They can share a romantic/ drama movie ( the one I am writing now! Kekeke) they can do comedy, an action/triller movie or they can sing together and do a collaboration. Also, Jenny is gonna be single soon soo they can get together for a real romance. I’m sure Rain will appreciate Jenny’s curves!! Another latina beauty who can get together with Rain is Michelle Rodriguez. She is lovely, talented and tough when she had to be. I see her doing a romantic/action movie with Rain and she is single too.

    • I agree with you on everything you said and you on an interview that he had, i’m not sure what year it was..where he said that he likes his women to be a little chubby and then alot of people kept saying that he might change his mind cause for some reason he does it alot. So I’m sure none us know what type of woman he likes (well far has looks goes) but when he finds her i hope they will make eachother happy and I will be there to support him no matter what.

        But that’s not the only one I’m basing my comment on. Everything he’s said since that interview, even currently, has boiled down to the same kind of girl. Just sayin’.

            I could care less who he ends up with as long as he is doing a happy dance! Heheh! 😀 He’s got a decent head on his shoulders, and I trust him. And if things don’t go quite right, because you never truly know everything about a person, life won’t be over, he can move forward and give it another try.

            and i am happy if he married anybody out from SEOUL… i don’t why either but my feeling just say rain should NOT married any of those Korean girl DON’T SHUT ME alright!!
            plus i think it even more mature for him to get to SPEAK & learn MORE English WHICHES HE DID SPEAK fluorine languages
            and and yet if does married girl or lady in USA he can also be a will known Business person here in USA i would love to see him all over the Stage serous rain already BIG in Asia it time for him move on to USA ahahahahah and he can do many many thing in here i just hope rain will thing through and wisely before he actually get married to this person as well i mean i want hm to married to a person who care for him and understand that he always be bussy and hardly around much in Korean it not ,like what u think girl their are so different and very expected

            • well kongsao i dont know how korean women are but you are right about how Rain can be a busy person and that the person he gets with needs to understand that he is a busniess man and has to work alot. In a relationship there needs to be honest, trust, communication, love, support and patients (thats just some of the keys points in a relationship) if he gets that in any relationship he is in than he is set unless he is missin something else.

  2. I bet he’s just throwing out her name coz he’s said it before and he thinks she’s hot. I’m quite sure he’s done the deed w/ many a woman so I’m sure he doesn’t have to worry about anyone taking advantage of him. He’s a great guy but I get the impression that he can be not so great sometimes, just like any other guy… ya know? You know anyone that’s as much of a perfectionist as he is can be super hard to get along with at times. I’m SURE that he can be a jerk when he wants to be… 🙂

    I really do think it’s one of those throw away answers because they ask most of-age idols this question and they always seem to answer with the names of obvious extra famous Korean or American actresses, especially american actresses. I’m sure that’s because they don’t want to say anyone that people coud start a rumor about. If Rain mentioned any Korean actress, it would be a wrap… Rumors would abound.

    Anyway, whether he’s with someone or not, I just want that man to be happy. He deserves it.

  4. I am with Stephe in the sense that he’s a man with experience in the loving scene, common, he’s georgeous, on his prime with money so I am sure women fall over him like every second! A willing woman is easy to get but “The One” is another story. To get her he must have time to mingle, know each other, share moments, etc. And that’s something he don’t have for now. The
    woman he’s looking for is going to be educated,
    smart, womanly and with family values. I think is gonna be a normal woman not from the show business. On the other hand, he may be experienced but he has a soft heart and that can get him into trouble with the wrong woman so he must be careful to whom he gives his love. I hope he chose well and get a loving woman he can share his life with for many years. He deserves a life full of love! 🙂

    • Whhaatt??…..he wants an educated smart woman with family values…..and all this time I thought he wanted a bimbo “up in da club.” I’m just joking……………………………………..

      In my honest opinion, this brotha is strictly Korean when it comes to HIS woman. I just put names out there I could see him with that I thought were classy, ladylike and at the same time saucy/sexy for him. The onscreen chemistry would be “crazy” hot with a couple of them (IMO). As far as his real life, whoever he gives his real heart too will probably catch holy hell. As lullaby sweet as I think he Can be, I agree with Diva his type of perfectionist “it’s my way” personality would suggest that he can probably be a real mofo (Diva said jerk) in the right circumstances and living with him…..Oh boy! (*queue music*…………Rollercoaster of love, say what..) We would probably be shocked to see it. Then crack the hell up like “wow did we just see that?” It’s funny Joonie used to tell all his business, but I haven’t seen him do that lately……wonder why? Hmm…………………………………………(SMILES)

      • Yeah, that’s right! I am sure is gonna be a korean woman with korean family values. Otherwise they are gonna be stepping into each others toes. There’s no doubt in my mind that he’s gonna be the man of the house, making decisions and leading their relationship. There’s gonna be love and he will hear her side but the last word will be his.

          THAT I WOULD BE THINKING TOO!!
          what i say early my option could be to far when i said i prefer rain married to USA i could be be wrong!!
          it just a though nothing personal of rain i don’t mind he married to Korean either or anybody culture or American or what he is married too actually i just so curious that all
          Rain is very SMART and yes he would have to be end up with a women are educated and smart to family value and u can tell he is also he may like a jerk sometime but he have such experience what how he relationship went through in pass and rain will be very careful what he see in this girl this time … ask in for him and i hope this person will give all his LOVE to rain and also very understand each other and life and build long term and share so many years
          and i very proud of him for he very deserved a life like us and have a good family and kids too i know our rain is going to LOVER DADDY !! and we all should be happy for him on other hand rain will continue to a business man and be actor, singer, performance model.. ect…after he married i don’t think it will STOP rain for who he became i know rain want to PURSUIT MANY DREAM out their so let love our rain forever whatever he felt happy for we fans & cloud will always stand by him RIGHT?
          LET keep love our rain and SUPPORTING him

  6. Heheheh, I think some of you are underestimating Rain WAY too much. 🙂

    He’s had ten years of being a bona fide sex symbol who uses a lot of sexual symbolism and knows how to use his body to the best effect. He’s been exposed over and over again to not just Asian actresses and business women, but Hollywood actresses and North American businesswomen, and there’s no way in heck he hasn’t gotten some fun out of that deal and come away with a “things to watch out for” list.

    He’s a hard worker, very thoughtful and polite, compassionate, a true gentleman. He’s also a GUY. With an appetite.

    “I gotta be a bad boy” aren’t just lyrics.

    JiHoon’s too smart and experienced at age 30 to be taken advantage of here. If anything, they’d better watch out for HIM. Haha. 😉

      Hey, like who you wanna like Bi, but….I’m picturing someone that may have a little bit more going on in the Class department and she doesn’t have to be famous. Are the others he’s mentioned class-less?, Well I guess it’s a matter of opinion. But hey, he obviously likes them “saucy.” (SMILES)

          Off the top of my head, just on how these young ladies present themselves.

          Caucasian – Natalie Portman, Camilla Belle
          Latina/Black – Zoe Saldana (saucy too)
          Black American – Sanaa Lathan (they would ooze sexy together)
          Black Euro – Thandie Newton (I know she’s married)

Don’t get me wrong I like Scarlett as an actress….much better than she who shall remain nameless. However, Scarlett was married to a cutie pie (fine too), dumped him, for somebody who dumped her….now she’s all over the place. She has publically questioned monogamy…so you get with her, just know you probably won’t be the only rooster in That hen house. You’ve been warned. (*just saying*)…..(SMILES)

      not to mention by age 40 he migh going to have a baby or kid or get married but i think rain is going to GET MARRIED for sure i can also told that he did NOT like to ask who that lady is at all.
