Editorial team reports
The Korean heavenly king who stormed through Asia has just released his first single “Sad Tango” in Japan, taking the 11th place on the Oricon Chart on the very first day of release. Sitting on the chart with this single are newly released albumsfrom B’z, WaT and Gackt. Pre-order promotional activities of Rain’s first Japanese single ended well with enthusiastic support from his fans. The record company also ensured that fans pre-ordering the single get their CD on the 25th Jan—the same day the single is officially released. As the single is imported direct from Japan, there is no Chinese translation for the lyrics. Hence, as a good gesture, the record company had the lyrics and the conversation in the DVD specially translated in Mandarin and placed in the Universal Taiwan’s website for fans to refer to.
In order to promote the single “Sad Tango”, Rain had his schedule in Japan packed tight with promotional activities, using only Japanese to converse when appearing on TV shows so as to close the distance between him and the Japanese fans. Rain, who has his schedule fully filled up, will be traveling to New York, where he will be having his “Rainy Day in Madison Square” concerts on the 2nd and 3rd Feb. Another important agenda on his US trip is to introduce himself to the US fans. He has accepted an invitation for interview from MTV. This interview will be held in the famous TRL studio, where Rain will also be performing ‘Live’.
After his Japanese single, Rain has also confirmed that he will be singing in Mandarin. According to a Korean newspaper, Rain will be attacking the China market using his commercial advertisement and the commercial jingle. It is estimated that the filming of the TVC will take place between 11th to 14th February. At the moment, the TVC concept and composition of jingle are already completed. It has yet to be decided as to whether the female model of the TVC will be Korean or Chinese. Other than the filming of this TVC, Rain will also be singing in Mandarin. It is said that the lyrics of this jingle is penned by Lin Xi, and the song produced by JY Park. The TVC will appear in the form of a music video, and the song will be distributed in Asia as a single album.
