10.20.09 [The Daily Apple] Rain To Do Military Service Next Year; Going To Hong Kong On Saturday ohmy.gif
South Korean pop sensation Rain had plans on having his Asian concert tour here in Hong Kong in December, but due to issues with the concert venue, it will be scheduled ahead of time on Nov 28th and 29th (name of venue in HK of which I don’t know), ticket prices varying between $1,280, 880, 680 and 380 HK dollars.
Temporary Absence For Two Years
It is reported that Rain will be going to perform his military service for two years starting next year in April, hence the concert that he will hold this time in Hong Kong will be his last show here before his absence from the entertainment world. This Saturday (the 24th), Rain will arrive in Hong Kong for concert promotional purposes, and at 3 pm the following day he will be at the W Hotel to announce further details during a press conference. He will return to Korea that same evening.

| Quote: | I think the news reporting that Rain is enlisting to the military in April is just a hoax. I already posted an earlier article published at the Korea Times regarding this matter which I presume is applicable to Rain, unless he is really willing and it is his wish to join the military this early. I am reposting the relevant portion:
"Draft dodgers in South Korea will be punished with longer military services while additional medical check-ups will be required for those applying for exemptions, according to the Military Manpower Administration.
The new measures will take effect between 2010 and 2011.
All able-bodied Korean men between the ages of 18 and 35 must serve 24 months in the country's military that confronts North Korea across a heavily fortified border."

I am also saddened by this turn of event, guess we need to wait from Rain and his agency for confirmation.

Oh bitte, jetzt das wieder los!!!! Wenn die Zeit kommt, dann wird Rain und J. Tune ist wohl angemessen den Fans sagen. Ich werde auch ab jetzt nichts mehr glauben, wenn es nicht von JT oder Rain selber kommt.
Manchmal wünschte ich mir, er würde dies mit der Armee doch so schnell wie möglich tun, damit wir es endlich hinter uns haben.

Ich denke auch, solange Rain nichts konkretes sagt würde ich das erstmal nicht ernst nehmen. 2011 ist durchaus denkbar aber 2010?? Wie will er da bitte die Alben hinbekommen und das Drama? Will er das dann von dort aus machen? Das wäre ja wirklich völliger quatsch und Rain hat sich wirklich seeeeehr viel Zeit gelassen um uns die Nachricht mit den Alben zu sagen, also schien er ja über etwas nachgedacht zu haben. Nun wird er doch nicht Monate brauchen um uns zu sagen, das zwei Alben kommen werden um uns dann ne Woche später zu erklären, sorry ne, war ein Scherz ... ich geh erstmal zur Armee. Nein also das kann ich mir nicht vorstellen.Und zu einem Album oder Film oder was auch immer gehört auch immer eine ordentliche Promotion, sonst braucht man gar nicht erst anzufangen.

Rain receives warrant for army enlistment on 28th September, but enlistment is postponed till next year
Posted on May 28, 2010 by sookyeong
Singer actor Rain (27) has received the warrant for army enlistment on 28th September, but due to some legal reasons, it has been postponed till next year.
A JTune Entertainment rep told MyDaily on 28th May, “Rain has received warrant for army enlistment this year on 28th September. But because he is currently taking courses in a DanKook Unversity, due to reasons of his study and schedule, he has applied for the enlistment date to be postponed till next year.”
Rain is currently studying at the mass cultural arts faculty in DanKook Unversity and since he has until 28 years old to enlist for army, he still has about 1 year more before he can do so. Rain’s birthday is on 25th June. And ahead of that, he has applied and the application has been accepted at the Military Manpower Administration.
Rain is currently promoting the followup hit ‘Hip Song’ off his recent special album. And he is set to appear in upcoming KBS ‘Fugitive’ in September.

Rain to enlist into active duty?
As custom for all Korean male citizens, they must at one point or another enlist into the Korean military service. Many celebrities have had the privilege of postponing their enlistment due to their conflicting schedules. Following their lead, it has recently been confirmed that Rain will most likely postpone his enlistment into active duty so that he can attend graduate school.
In a recent interview with Rain’s company, his representatives stated, “It is correct that his expected enlistment date is September 28th. However, the Office of Manpower Administration has not sent him an official notice yet.”
They added, “We know that there is an age limit when using school attendance as a reason of postponement…As we look into the situation, if the postponement is approved, we will act accordingly to the law and postpone his enlistment as planned.” The maximum age for postponement is 28. Rain will be 28 on June 25th.
Rain also stated, “As a Korean man, I believe that it is only natural to be dutiful to my country and enlist into military service…I will go within the next year.”
Currently, Rain is undertaking a master’s degree at Dangook University Graduate School of Arts under the Performing Arts Department.

Rain will be entering the military service within a year
Top star Rain also known as Jeong Ji-hoon has postponed his entering military service until September 28th of this year. The reason for this is because he is a graduate student at the moment. He has received a call for military service and has received level 1 for his health inspections.
He applied for postponing this entering service until he was done with schooling.
This reason for postponing is only valid for those under the age of 28, and Rain is still 27 that allowed him to enter at a later time.
He is to be in a new drama "Fugitive" and because of his studies postponing the military service, Rain is able to be in the drama.

Rain to enlist?
Jung Ji Hoon, otherwise known as World Super Star Rain has an expected enlistment date of September 28, 2010 although he has not yet received the official warrant from the South Korean military’s Office of Manpower Administration. Rain, is however seeking a postponement of his enlistment due to his attending school as a graduate student.
He is currently working towards a Master’s Degree at Dankook University in its Performing Arts Department. Other than attending graduate school, Rain was also set to make his comeback to Korean dramas in late September/early October. He was confirmed to star in the Kdrama Runaway under the direction of Chuno PD Kwak Jung Hwan and writer Chun Sung Il.
Several celebrities in the past have asked for postponements of their enlistment due to various reasons including their schedules, but an approval is not automatically given. Recently, actor Lee Jun Ki was in the midst of filming a movie Grand Prix and a drama Faith and requested a postponement of his enlistment. His request was denied, so he had to abandon his projects and enlist. If Rain’s postponement is also denied, he will have to report to the military on September 28th.
Rain was born on June 25, 1982, and will be turning 29 (Korean) soon so his time is limited. He did say in a statement that if his postponement is granted, he will still be entering the military within the next year. It is definitely not the best time to have to enlist in the South Korean military because of the escalating tension with the North due to the Cheonnan tragedy controversy. Let us all hope that justice and peace will prevail in Korea.

| Quote: | 16 Jun 2010 - Rain trying to ask a delay in the date of his joining the army, because he'll spend time abroad from June through August
Rain'll spend time abroad from June through August for his drama which will be shot on location and his concert.
He'll leave for Japan upcoming June 19th to hold his concert 'Rain Loves Zepp Tour'.
Starting with his concert in Tokyo on June 22nd and 23rd, he'll tour 6 Zepp concert venues in Hucuoka on June 25th, Osaka on June 28th and 29th, Nagoya on July 12th, Sendai on July 4th, and in Sapporo on July 5th.
He'll join his drama 'Fugitive' and shoot on location after showing his stage in Japan's Saitama Super Arena on July 17th and 18th.
Rain's agent J.Tune Entertainment expressed, "Since Rain has a single passport because he is a person who has not yet joined the army, he has to enter Korea by the end of August or early in September at farthest after finishing shooting on location before the end of August. "
Continuing, they said on his joining the army issue, "There is a notice about when he should enter the army on the MMA (the Military Manpower Administration) website. The date is September 28th, but he is trying to ask a delay in the date of his joining the army, because he goes to graduate school and has a full schedule of drama."

Jetzt haben wir "endlich" eine offizielle Notice! Irgendwie habe ich gerade einen Knoten im Hals. Falls die MMA seine Verschiebung ablehnt (was ich nicht hoffe und denke), bedeutet dies, dass wir nach 3 Monaten bereits verabschieden werden.
Aber ich bin mir sicher, dass sie ihm bis nächstes Jahr Zeit geben werden.

Hmm das ist jetzt früher als ich erwartet habe. Ich hoffe, daß sie ihm Aufschub gewähren und das er wenigstens noch sein Comeback ende des Jahres durchziehen kann. Zusätzlich wäre es schön ihn bei den Awards und Gayo Daejeons zu sehen.
Es ist ja auch nicht so, daß man die Leute nicht vermisst. Mir gehen Boom und Kangin schon ziemlich ab und jetzt kommt Rain dazu. Leider müssen die Stars und die Fans da durch. Hilft alles nichts.

| Quote: | 13 Jul 2010 - Rain to Enter Army Service This Year?
No! Fans might be wailing by now but don’t panic, Rain’s military enlistment is not confirmed yet.
Recently there have been rumors floating around about Rain’s army service call and his stocks sale.
It is confirmed that Rain has sold 4.72% of his J. Tune Entertainment stocks. Therefore, there are rumors saying that he sold the stocks as a way to get rid of them before entering the army service. It is also rumored that Rain’s action is because of J. Tune Entertainment’s plan for M&A (Mergers and Acquisitions).
However, a spokesperson from J. Tune Entertainment denied the rumors by saying, “Rain has been selling stocks he has invested in since last year. Rain has been a celebrity under J. Tune Entertainment from the start. It has nothing to do with his shares; he has been and still is a celebrity under an official contract”.
The spokesperson explained more, “There is no planned M&A. Rain’s enlistment is not final either.From what I know, Rain did not earn much from his sales.” It is projected that he was only able to make about 2,00,000 USD by selling his stock.
Lately one by one of our beloved celebrities have been actively called for military service. For now, Rain’s enlistment might be just a rumor but who knows, maybe it will be reality sometime soon. Just prepare your hearts from now before the real news come out everyone!

Oh man, diese Warterei oder die Angst, dass jeden Moment etwas kommen wird, ist ja schlimmer als alles andere. Manchmal wünschte ich mir, Rain hätte diesen Dienst gemacht und jetzt hätten wir es endlich hinter uns.
Warum kann die koreanische Regierung nicht endlich das Gesetz lockern? Pflicht, ok, kann ich noch verstehen aufgrund der Angst vom Norden, aber verkürzt es wenigstens auf ein Jahr.
