Feature Friday: Jung Ji-Hoon (Rain)

Hello there sweet honey cakes!! This week's Feature Friday is about one of my all-time favorite Korean celebrities, Rain <3 If you're familiar with the kdrama world, then I'm sure you have heard of him quite a few times by now. I have been waiting to write this post for a few weeks now, because he is turning 31 on June 25th, 2013. That's on Tuesday for me :) I'm sure fans around the world will be celebrating it!

Jung Ji-Hoon is known in many countries by his stage name Rain. In some parts of China it is Yu, Bi in Korea, and Pi in Japan. 

The first movie I saw him in was the 2006 Korean romantic comedy titled I'm a Cyborg, But That's Okay. 

This is a VERY adorable movie about a girl who believes she is a cyborg and get's sent to a mental institution where she meets Park Il-Soon (Rain).

Rain is in Several other movies and shows, including Full House (2004), A Love to Kill (2005) and the American movie Ninja Assassin (2009).

Currently, Rain is serving his 21 month Military Service, which started on October 11th, 2011.

I found a countdown someone created for him showing the days, minutes and hours until he is released from the Military. Check it out!

Countdown!

In 2006, Rain was mention in a Time Magazine article that listed "100 Most Influential People Who Shape Our World". In 2007, he was on People Magazine's "Most Beautiful People" list.
