It was around 10pm at night one day, and I've surfed through my channels several times already. When I got to CCTV 10, it was playing the programme "People", and person in focus that day happened to be Asia's star of entertainment, the popularity king of Korea, Rain.
I was puzzled. CCTV's "People" is a serious no-nonsense documentary column which usually interviews people like political celebrities, entrepreneurs and academics. This seems to be a little far off from the gossipy entertainment world, and Rain's personal interview feature is on for two days!
Rain isthe star who rose the fastest, and has the broadest influence n the last couple of years. His span of influence reaches across the whole of Asia; he is almost like a miracle. His scope stretches from singing, to acting in commercials and television dramas, and represented Korea in sweeping the Asia MTV award. Rain is the first Asian artiste to hold a successful solo concert in the Madison Square of New York, US. One must know that it is immensely difficult for any foreigner to break into the US market, and this is even more so for an Asian artiste. This is no exception even for an Asian star like Rain.
In the interview, the words that appeared in the subtitles most are "Diligence" and "Work hard". During the concert tour, he picked up Chinese, Japanese, English, Thai etc in order to communicate with fans better.To provide better visual effects for fans, he practises his singing and dancing overnight every day. Learning foreign languages, rehearsing his performance...these work go on for near 20 hours every day, leaving only 3 or 4 hours for him to rest. Such resting time is not something which a normal people can endure. It requires a lot of will, beliefs and determination.
The characteristic single eye-lids, sexy body, beautiful singing voice, modern dance steps...we've seen his sunny appearance and glorious success. Behind all these are endless untold stories of hardship and sweat. Everyone has a goal in his/ her heart. In order to achieve this goal, we must go through a long winding road. It is Rain's persistence, hardwork and never-give-up attitude that enable him to achieve his position and potential in the Asian entertainment industry today, as well as his countless number of fans everwhere.
Many people sees the entertainment industry as being sordid and superficial. In reality, there are people and issues which are sordid and superficial. But as a profession, the entertainment industry has also its people who are healthy and aspiring. "I'll like to bring people together using pop music. I believe Asia can be the forefront runner in the global entertainment industry." Rain's entertainment spirit can become a model for other artistes to look up to.
Certainly we hope even more so that the crazy fans are not just blindly idolising Rain's appearance, but are able to learn from his attitude as well.
