Entertainer Rain Disclosed to Help Cancer Patient

Top singer Rain, 25, with original name of Jung Ji-hoon, will be disclosed to have helped in secret his fan living a time-limited life due to serious cancer in a five-part special TV documentary Saturday.

Part 4 or "Promise of a Mum" of the Human Documentary "Love..." to be aired by MBC at 11 p.m. on May 19 contains a tearful story of Ahn So-bong, 33, who had been told to live a six-month life due to stomach cancer checked after the birth of her first daughter.

In the process of the documentary production, the program producer found the undisclosed good deed of Rain. He has ecouraged Ahn mentally and supported her financially.

Rain is a fervent fan of Ahn since he found that her husband Kim Jae-moon had posted a story in the fan cafe of JYP Entertainment Rain belonged to then, I hoped Ji-hoon would encourage my wife.

Rain, who lost his mother in his earlier days, gave much pity upon reading the story. During the Chuseok holiday last year, the singer called at the ward where Ahn had been hospitalized, surprising the cancer patient to her delight. He also delivered 20 million won for her treatment before leaving for the Winter World Tour concert last year. Thereafter, he has often made calls to her husband to ask about her health.

Rain felt much pain on hearing the story of a young mother who had faced a time-limited life after her first childbirth, recalling his mother who had died at earlier age, a close aide said. It is very awkward for me as it has been disclosed in disregard of my intention although I have done this simply for a personal reason, he was quoted as saying.

MBC has manufactured and aired the five-part documentary as a feature in the month of family, May.
