Fans of Bi listen up! Pop sensation Rain will be arriving in Taipei for the fourth time this Friday! Although the trip was kept as secretive as possible, the moment the news leaked out, Chiang Kai-shek international airport is set to go into a chaotic state once again with fans flooding its arrival hall.
Rain flies to Taipei for an express 24-hour interview
The fifth LV Maison in the world is getting ready for its opening ceremony, and Rain will be in Taipei, attending the grand party for some 2000 people at CKS memorial hall. He will be taking Korean Air, flight E691, and will be arriving at 11:05am at CKS International Airport for a 24 hour visit, and has planned to depart the next day at 12:15pm on flight KE692 for Korea.
At the moment, Rain is busy filming "I'm a Cyborg, Is it Ok", directed by Director Pak. He has already taken leave from the filming team for his Taiwan trip. Although the plan was kept as secretive as possible, incredibly informative fans have managed to smell a rat, because for the past one year, Rain has been a avid fan of LV's clothing, and he is almost always in LV whenever he attends his endorsement activities or concert press conferences.
In Taipei to create publicity for the brand
This is Rain's fourth time in Taipei, and his entourage this time round is significantly reduced compared to his last three visits. Especially because the organiser did not publicised about his visit and kept his entire schedule as low-key as possible. According to sources, this is because of some negative news that surfaced the other time Rain visited Taipei, mainly on the conflict between his bodyguards and members of the press. There was also the chaos created by a few hundred passionate fans waiting at the airport. So this time, they chose to be as secretive as possible, hoping to give fans a big surprise.
Secretive Schedule to give fans a surprise
These few days, Rain fans have been busy on the forums discussing about this issue. Many have taken leave especially to welcome him at the airport, and the organiser have engaged several bodyguards to ensure the safety of this heavenly king.

Rain Makes TIME World 100 List
Singer and actor Rain has been selected one of the 100 most influential people in the world by American magazine TIME.
Rain is the first Korean entertainer to make the annual list, announced on Sunday morning, local time.
The 23-year-old singer-actor was also voted online as the second most influential person next to Oscar-winner film director, Ang Lee, in the "Artists & Entertainers" section.
The magazine held online voting for three weeks in April via its website.
Thanks to his killer body and dynamic dance moves which exude masculine charm, Rain has ridden the hallyu crest, the Korean wave, and has been looking east to the United States, working hard on English.
He sold out two shows at Madison Square Garden in New York in February.
According to Rain's agency, JYP entertainment, the American magazine said people for the list were chosen mostly based on the opinions of TIME staff and a jury, with online results being only a minor element.
Consequently, at an official invitation, Rain will attend the "TIME 100" Party at New York's Lincoln Center, May 8. Also invited are others chosen for the list including Nigerian Archbishop Peter Akinola and DaimlerChrysler chief, Dieter Zetsche.
Rain will head to New York on May 7.
The singer is currently filming "Saibogujiman Kwenchana," ("Although I am a cyborg, it's OK") in which he has the lead role. The film is by renowned director Park Chan-wook. It will be Rain's big-screen debut.
Other Koreans who have made the list include former Seoul National University professor and scientist Hwang Woo-suk, Samsung Group chairman Lee Kun-hee and North Korean leader Kim Jong-il.

What do they mean by this???
This showed they are jealous... a lot of singers act.. why are they not
as popular as him???
Those basher should start realize we love Bi because we think he's good
in both acting and singing. And Most of us prefer him as a singer more than actor....
Jen I am sounding like a broken record.... God I hate those jealous people.
Common he's asian.. he's korean.. if he's not in there (poll) - no other
korean entertainer is there....

does anyone know what time the event is? and is he going to appear anywhere else in NYC? i missed the last time he was here so i definitely have to find out where he's gonna be for this whole trip and stalk him. xD
Go stalk him - It will be easier in NY compare to here... Not too many fans there so it will be easy
for you.. then make sure report your findings here... or over in the drama section..

Singer Rain has been invited to the headquarters of ABC TV in New York.
Rain was recently selected by the U.S. weekly magazine TIME as one of the "100
Most Influential People in the World" (Time 100). He will leave Seoul on the
morning of May 7 to attend a "Time 100" party to be held at the Lincoln Center for
the Performing Arts in New York on May 8 at 8:30 p.m., local time. The trip has
garnered attention, as Rain is expected to meet a senior executive of ABC TV,
one of the major American TV networks, at the company's headquarters in New
York.
According to a person close to Rain, he will visit the ABC TV headquarters in New
York on May 8 at noon before heading for the "Time 100" red carpet ceremony.
He is visiting ABC at the company's invitation. During his visit, he is expected to
have a meeting with a senior executive at ABC to discuss the possibility of his
appearing on the TV network.
An official from his agency, JYP Entertainment, has recently said, "Some time ago,
we were contacted by an official from ABC TV. The official asked about Rain, his
plans, and the possibility of his appearing on ABC TV."
Under these circumstances, if his meeting with the ABC TV executive results in his
appearance on the TV's nationwide network, it will have a positive effect on
enhancing his recognition in the United States. Rain officially declared his plan to
advance into the American market in February, when he gave a solo concert at
the Madison Square Garden in New York, a first for an Asian singer.
Following his attendance at the "Time 100" party, Rain will return home on the
morning of May 10. Upon arriving, he will head for Busan to act in director Park
Chan-wook's new film "I'm a Cyborg, But That's Okay," the first film he has ever
acted in. Since late March, Rain has been staying in Busan to shoot the film.
