Rain on Speed Racer’s Parade

South Korean actor/singer Rain attends the premiere of Speed Racer at the Nokia Theatre on Saturday in Los Angeles, Calif.

Rain, 25, recently posed with “The Mach 5″ at early advance screening at the ImaginAsian Center in Los Angeles.

Speed Racer opens nationwide on May 9th.

Last year Stephen Colbert did a hilarious music video parody of Rain, the Korean R&B phenom. Check it out.

I agree. Wait ’til you see him in “Speed Racer.” Don’t judge him by this. Though I think his outfit is very nice. The cut and color. Nice, Rain! I’m a Jay Chou girl, but still. Rain’s trying.

OMG it’s Rain!

umm. so even though my family’s Filipino and not Korean, my mom and a bunch of titas are obsessed with Korean soap operas. I saw the one called Full House (which was more of a comedy soap opera) and fell in love with it.
I have to admit, he’s much hotter without all that hair. Used to be short. D: My sis saw him in concert in NY and he was extreeeemely hot.

Yes, Rain was in Full House, which was all time popular Korean soap opera for several months - he was so funny and adorable on the show. Let me tell you, he has a fierce body and does killer performance in all his concerts!!! watch his videos!

Goofy….

No herpes just a simple “cold sore” (virus) that many of us carry from birth and when under stress a relatively minor break-out will occur. It is, however, important not to kiss another when you get a cold sore near on or near the mouth and/or nose.

I’m over sixty and, therefore, can attest these (on his lip) are not related to the other type of herpes.

rainamaniar @ 04/28/2008 at 2:44 am

personally i think he looks pretty neat and handsome here. I like his suit, it’s probably LV again.
There’s nothing wrong with the eyeglass or the hair, though of course i am sure everyone prefers his other hairstyles… the hair is only for his new role in another Wachowski movie. Okay? so don’t go whining oh why is he looking like this now…

his smile is gorgeous…aww
