Kekekekeke! What a character he is. 😉
Lordy, as I recall, » our cheating on Rain with Jay Chou kinda/sorta happened during one of our weaker moments, and we TOTALLY blame Jay… *wink* I also recall Terri alarming somebody on Twitter, before Rain went into the military, when she was over there gettin’ her K-Pop-Idol-on and staunchly standing by her right to cheat if she wanted to. LOL! Go, Terri! And a few days ago, I kinda/sorta went on a SHINee/HoMin video binge, yes, on my Twitter… ahem…
But hey. Does not matter. Rain knows and WE know what the score is. His boots are the only boots in our foyer. It says CLOUD USA on this here marquee for a reason. 😀
Do enjoy this article, dear fans, written with information from a Celestial Movies interview transcript with Rain. ^@@^

You can cheat on me for two years
Any act of betrayal is traumatic, hurtful and emotionally draining.
But K-pop superstar Rain, who is going through the South Korean equivalent of national service, has magnanimously given his legions of supporters the go-ahead to fall in love with other idols during his temporary hiatus from showbiz.
“I will let you cheat on me during these two years,” the boyish-faced 30-year-old singer-actor told his Singapore fans, in an interview transcript provided by Celestial Movies.
“Just make sure you come back to me when I’m back from the army.”
Rain is widely recognised as one of South Korea’s most successful and all-rounded entertainers.
He had sold-out concerts in 2006 at New York’s Madison Square Garden and roles in Hollywood action flicks Speed Racer (2008) and Ninja Assassin (2009), and he was at the peak of his career when the call to serve the nation came.
He donned the green uniform last October and is now in the midst of completing his 21-month national service, which is compulsory for all South Korean men.
This was his first interview with local media since his concert at the Singapore Indoor Stadium in May 2011.
Fans who are curious and worried as to whether their beloved poster boy is adjusting well to the regimented, rigorous life of a full-time soldier, can be reassured that he is doing more than just fine, Rain said.
“Serving the army is my solemn responsibility and it is my honour to be able to become part of the military,” he said.
“I always get to experience new stuff and I’m happy when I manage to overcome challenges.
“My life as a singer, from 2002 up to the moment I started military service, is Act 1. Army life is Act 2… I look forward to Act 3 of my life when I am discharged.”
The heart-throb who is known for his nifty footwork and jaw-dropping six-pack abs has definitely not been lazying about as part of South Korea’s military personnel.
Performing for army
He performed at the Black Eagle Air Show at Seoul’s Incheon International Airport earlier this month, reported Chinese news portal Sina Entertainment. The event was a celebratory event for the Black Eagles, the air force’s aerobatic flight display team.
“They (the Black Eagles) were awarded at an international air show in Britain in June. I’m extremely proud of them,” said Rain.
Last weekend, Rain also sang and danced at the 9th Korea Defence Daily Comrade Marathon, which was attended by more than 5,000 soldiers and members of the public, reported Hong Kong’s Singpao Daily News.
YouTube clips of that event showed him in his army uniform and cap, being mobbed by reporters and photographers, and also singing and dancing onstage.
His hectic schedule comes after he was “appointed the publicity ambassador of the Military Manpower Administration”, said Rain.
“Aside from my daily duties, attending orientation ceremonies for newcomers has become part of my work.”

I know Rain has given his fans permission to cheat on him while he is serving the milittary. For me, NOT A CHANCE!!! Rain will always be my One and only, ring bologna (that’s a little private saying meaning can’t no one top Rain, he is at the top all by himself in my eyes). I will wait for his release in 2013 and I hope he does a concert in New York or Las Vegas. I’m from Pittsburgh, PA but he has performed in those cities before so I know he is familiar with those places, so I will travel to one of those cities when he comes back to perform. Rain please come to the U.S. (Las Vegas, New York), we love you.
