Rain casted a careful vote



Central voting manger committee"Fair elections promoting ambassador", Rain(24 yrs old) analyzed the policy he used to determine a good political party when interviewed by Yohap. Later he attended 5.31 local elections absentee voting. He emphasized that it is important to perform your voting rights as a citizen.


Rain is shooting the movie Cyborg at Busan with director Park Chanyu(sound), on 25th, as an absentee voter, he went to Haiyuntai elementary school gym voting stand to cast his vote. He said, although not really interested in politics, he casted a vote to a worthy candidate. In his down time he likes to read newspapers, he pays more attention to"100minutes discussion" and other current affair shows, so he can responsibly cast his vote.


He says"my philosophy in life is to be open and upright. As an artist one should have rich knowledge and deeply acknowledge that only if you understand the reason behind things will you be able to come in contact with more people. On the other hand also raise your own level. Therefore he reads news everyday and some other ways to remind himself not to forget learning new knowledge. Thinking artist don't understand candidates and cast votes irresponsibly is a biased opinion.


Additionally, Rain also gave his opinion on the negotiation on the income split between music and "moving"(name of company?)phone company(Papapanda: refering to the korean star protest against phone company offering ringtones of their songs on the website but artists not getting enough in return)
He says, in the entertainment business, (they) really want to present better cultural charisma. If reasonable distribution(of income) is to be fulfilled, the ability of people to differentiate different music qualities is very important.


He also adds that he feels sorry that during this period artists could not unite together very well, and hope that the negotiation between the moving phone company and the music business can have a satisfactory result.
