[articles] Soldier check: Rain on his way to being an assistant instructor.
— Cloud cover by: Stephe, Managing Editor ^@@^
Well, I don’t know what it is about this story, maybe everyone was in such a danged hurry to put it up that mistakes were unavoidable. Even the responsible and seasoned news outlets had glaring errors in their articles, wrong dates (no, Rain didn’t enlist on October 10… boot camp ends when?), weird translation glitches, really BAD English, et cetera… gah.
This is the only one that satisfied me today at all. Thank the heavens for Korea.com, at least. Wow. *dumbfounded*

Rain is selected as an assistant instructor in the Army
A high-level military official recently talked about the reason he chose Rain as an assistant instructor for the fifth division training camp. He said, “Rain is very responsible and faithful.”
Rain joined the Army on October 11 and has trained for five weeks with the fifth division.
The official said, “Jung Ji Hoon was an example for other recruits and did a very good job as a trainee with the other soldiers.”
“He also wanted to be an assistant instructor and we made a fair estimation. We thought he was good enough to be an assistant instructor.”
Rain is especially skilled at shooting.
On October 26, he shot the bull’s eye nineteen out of twenty times during the day and he shot the bull’s eye ten out of ten times at night. He was one of the top three marksmen among one hundred forty soldiers.
Rain will become an assistant instructor on December 9.
He will serve as a soldier for twenty one months and he will be discharged from military service on July 10, 2013.

Rain was chosen as the most suitable actor to play the role of Theseus
In a survey done by a portal site Nate, Rain took first place with 47% of the votes for ‘Who is the best Korean actor to play the role of Theseus of Immortals?’ So Ji Seop, who starred in Only You, took second place with 38% of the votes, and Park Jae Joong of JYJ took third place with 5% of the votes.
It is said that Rain is the most suitable for the role of Theseus because he has a firm and muscular body like that of Theseus. Netizens responded: “Rain must be the Korean Theseus.” “I give a vote to Rain who has a six pack just like that of Theseus.” “World Star Rain is the most suitable for the role of Theseus.”
Immortals is about the fight between Theseus, a mortal man chosen by Zeus, and the ruthless King Hyperion, who tries to destroy humanity.
