Rain in Hollywood?
RAIN fever is not about to subside soon. The South Korean singer-actor (pic), who attended the dinner hosted by Time magazine to celebrate its “100 Most Influential People of 2006” in New York on May 8, impressed some Hollywood heavyweights too.
Being the first entertainer from his country to make it to the exclusive list certainly does make people sit up, among them American movie mogul Jerry Bruckheimer, actor-singer Will Smith and singer P. Diddy.
Sina.com reported that the three, Bruckheimer in particular, paid special attention to Rain.
Seated next to Rain at the party, Bruckheimer was said to have engaged in a two-hour conversation with the young star about a possible entry into the American market.
A staff member of Rain’s management company, JYP, revealed that “Jerry Bruckheimer asked if Rain is interested in going into the US movie market. He then left Rain with a contact and said he hopes to keep in touch”.
The staffer added that Bruckheimer told the 23-year-old Korean about the movies he has made as well as his series of CSI productions and his collaboration with Chow Yun-Fat in Pirates of the Caribbean 3.
It seemed Bruckheimer told Rain: “Through working with Chow I got to realise that Asian artistes are very serious in their work, and are very humble too.”
