26 Nov 2008 - Whatever Rain does, it goes well. His negative development does him more good than harm.
"Rainism", "judgment of teenagers harmful object"....Album sale was up sharply on the contrary, misfortune turned into a blessing.
Sudden increase of album sale happened to him against "judgment of teenagers harmful object".
Rain's 5th album, "Rainism", was sold more than 2,100 on the 24th.(album sale total site, "Hunter" standard)
That is more than double the rate for the volume of 1,000 was sold on the 23th before the day. The 24th is the day "Rainism" received "harmful object judgment" from 'Teenagers Protection Committee' under 'the Ministry of Health and Welfare'.
"Rainism" was sold with being put a red label like "sale prohibition under 19 year of age" on it. In spite of this negative development, sale volume of Rain's 5th album increased suddenly.
An album producer said, "judgment of teenagers harmful object" is obviously negative development, but it shows that it has pepole's name bandied about and attracted their attentions on the contrary. Album sale have been over 40 days, but its selling is steady."
The entertainment industry is abuzz over "dance machine" Rain's hot track "Rainism," which has recently been banned from sale to teenagers over its lewd lyrics. The singer agreed to change a few phrases for his underage fans at concerts but expressed regret over the government's decision on the already chart-topping record.
The Youth Protection Committee of the Ministry for Health, Welfare and Family Affairs said Monday that the lyrics of "Rainism" are lewd and harmful to teenagers. The record will be sold with a red sticker and will be banned from sales to those under 19 years old, according to the committee.
The parts that the agency did not like were "Spinning is my magic stick inside your shaking body/ The body shake that feels the limit it cannot go beyond," in which the writer, the singer himself, is allegedly describing sexual intercourse between a man and a woman.
In fact, the lyrics have long been subject to debate for their sexual explicitness since the song's debut on Oct. 15.
However, Rain and his agency, Jtune Entertainment, explained such wording is quite common in Western pop songs and Korean fans are mature enough not to be affected by them. The song passed three major broadcasters' screenings and swept domestic pop charts.
Jtune said Tuesday that Rain would change the criticized parts for performances but leave them on the album. "He will rewrite several phrases because he obeys the law. However, the committee's idea of sex appeal is totally different from that of Rain's. Is there a clear criterion to assert lewdness?" it asked in a press release.
Fans criticized the government's decision. "The love scenes or violent scenes we see through TV dramas, movies, Internet and books are much more serious ― the government should fix those first. Anyway, who cares about the lyrics when you see Rain dancing?'" a fan ID:tkfkdgo1 said on www.daum.net.
Some Internet users allege that the government is helping boost sales with the announcement. "Now everyone will try to listen to Rain's song to see what's so lewd about it. The government is actually a secret supporter of the singer," ID:Jackie said.
However, some defended the decision, saying K-pop needs to watch its wording. "I hope this will influence some other singers who talk about all lousy things ― teenage singers talking about mating and showing off their legs or breasts seems too much," ID: sincerely said.
The lyrics of singer Rain’s ‘Rainism’ that came under heavy criticism due to it’s risky content has been amended.
On October 28th, The Ministry for Health, Welfare and Family Affairs under the influence of The Commission on Youth Protection decided that ‘Rainism’ could cause emotional damage to the character of young teens and as a result ordered ‘Not Suitable For People Under 19 Years Old’ stickers to be attached on the album.
Right away, Rain made some changes to the lyrics and starting on the 23rd, online music sites will be providing a ‘Rainism Clean Version.’ The lyrics that came under fire were ‘My magic stick is spinning inside your trembling body’ and ‘You can’t feel beyond my body shake’ and they will be changed to ‘Feel the rhythm digging into my heart yes I know Feel my soul’ and ‘Our one and only Rainsim.’ The new clean version will also be added to the album for sale in stores.
During the time of the criticism Rain’s company J.Tune Entertainment made clear that, “Magic stick refers to the one used in the choreography. It was not written with any hidden meaning behind it,” however The Commission on Youth Protection ruled that such an explanation was not sufficient enough.
In the meantime, the criticism that caused broadcasting station KBS, MBC and others to re-examine ‘Rainism’ decided that it was not a large problem.

YesAsia Editorial Description It takes guts and sheer determination to alter your life trajectory, especially when you're at the top of the game. But that's exactly what Rain did. In November of 2007, Rain left his longtime nest JYP Entertainment and started his own company, J. Tune Entertainment. And now, after establishing worldwide fame through his much publicized 2007 world tour and Hollywood exposure in films like Speed Racer and the upcoming action flick Ninja Assassin, the multi-entertainer returns to home base to release his long-awaited fifth album poignantly titled Rainism. By adding "-ism" to his name, the title promotes a new ideology and concept that capture the essence of who he is and what he represents.
Taking full control of the album's entire production, Rain reveals his true colors through his own composition and choice of lyrics, in particular Love Story and September 12th. Composed and arranged by Choi Hyung Joon of V.O.S, Love Story is a pop R&B number that talks about the ugly side of love, surprisingly coming from the singer's own experience. In the song's music video which features actress Ha Ji Won, Rain extends his talent net by orchestrating the full storyline. Moreover, the star upgrades his dance moves by collaborating with world-famous choreographer AJ who previously worked with stars like Usher and Justin Timberlake.
This version comes with two additional tracks: the Chinese versions of Rainism and Love Story.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
This is only a temporary file. As you can see, I missed the first few seconds of the song + the quality is not so good (so to all picky watchers out there, please try to be a little bit more considerate). I will upload the complete video with (hopefully) better quality later on when it becomes available.
Oh Baby there's something's that I have to tell you bout
Can't hold it in my heart
All this pain is breakin' me down
Thought I found my one true love
Couldn't show you how I feel
I was stupid baby my pride wouldn't let me be real
I'm asking for one more chance
Didn't know where you stand or
What your feelings demanded from me
I pleaded your wouldn't pass
You left me out in the rain
when you just walked away
This song is a story of a true tragedy
I gave up my heart
I tried to give you all of me
We've come to the ending somehow
I don't know what to do
But I don't wanna forget now
I love you baby, I still love you
This is the sound of honesty
I gave up my heart
I tried to be all I could be
My heart gonna wait forever
I'm still holding on to
All of our moments together
I love you baby, I still love you
We were so much in love
Tell me how could you forget
Wish you were here with me but
Memories are all I have left
It seems the promises
that you made to me were nothing
And you smile girl but I see your hurt within
I'm asking for one more chance
Baby give me your hand
So we can both understand this love
I pleaded your love wouldn't pass
all the pieces of my soul
want to live in your heart
This is the story of a true love tragedy
I gave up my heart
I tried to give you all of me
We've come to the ending somehow
I don't know what to do
But I don't wanna forget now
I love you baby, I still love you
This is the sound of honesty
I gave up my heart
I tried to be all I could be
My heart gonna wait forever
I'm still holding on to
All of our moments together
I love you baby, I still love you
Gotta close the door
Just like you did before
See my heart is broken
Baby I can't do it no more
Even though it hurts
I'll make a brand new start
And lay the rest all the moments
That played with my heart
But just before I do
I gotta let you know that
No man will love you more
So baby never forget
Listen, I'm without you
All I know is right now
I love, I'll always love you
This is the story of a true love tragedy
I gave up my heart
I tried to give you all of me
We've come to the ending somehow
I don't know what to do
But I don't wanna forget now
I love you baby, I still love you
This is the sound of honesty
I gave up my heart
I tried to be all I could be
My heart gonna wait forever
I'm still holding on to
All of our moments together
I love you , I will always love you, yeah
