Well, you can’t really blame the powers that be for keeping security tight. Bi still is a Korean artist touring in Japan. From what I understand (historically speaking…literally historically speaking) Japan and Korea haven’t always been the “best of friends” so Japan may very well be doing things differently security wise.
Also, it could be conceivable that Bi is indeed doing things differently this time around himself…you never know. It’s possible (OR NOT) he could hire his own photographer to take professionally done pics from his concerts for his fan site The Cloud OR maybe he might do like certain celebs over here and in the future establish his own Tumblr page….not necessarily ban fan cams……keep your undies on Clouds!….it’s just supposition).
Check out Beyonce’s Tumblr page (for example). It’s pretty nice. She gives an up close perspective of her touring/personal life through photos on her Tumblr page. It’s very selective of course, yet gives a certain personal perspective of the artist without the artist having to do an in depth interview. All the while the fans get to see some awesome images. I think an artist like Bi could really benefit from doing a page like that.

BiA,
I absolutely agree that it would do Rain good if his management would regularly publish publicity photos. Rainy Entertainment does seem to be doing a bit better with that. Hopefully, CUBE DC will also step up to the plate for Rain’s fans.
Based on past experience, I’ll believe it when I see it. Although 2013 is the beginning of a new era in Rain’s career. So, I will try to remain positive.

It could be the folks in charge of the ZEPP Hall and their security. That’s what comes to my mind. I heard it happened a lot during the last tour too.
It’s certainly not Rain’s style, no way.
Things have always been handled differently in Japan. Stuff we’ve seen from there, we were lucky to see. *sigh*

FYI: As we understand it, the reason there is such a lack of ZEPP Nagoya fan cams and pictures is that security was unbelievably tight. Everyone at the concert was watched from the second floor and not only had their cameras and phones taken if they were caught snapping a picture or taking a video (and the evidence deleted), but forced to leave the show and not allowed to return as well. This happened both nights. *sigh* Not good. 😦
Seems our only hope, dear Clouds and fans, is if they relax security the last few nights in Tokyo because by then, almost all the tour ticket holders will have seen the surprises in the show. We’ll just have to wait and see…
