05.25.11 [Notice] Important Announcement From 625EndlessRain

To our dear 625endlessrain/sixtofive1982 supporters:

It has been a difficult time for Jax and me to come to this conclusion, but we have decided that we will be discontinuing the site effective the month of June (more than likely by the time Rain winds down with his tours this month). There are many various reasons as to why we have made this decision, but we will not go into every single detail. Most are due to personal reasons; we both have families, personal commitments and jobs that require our fullest attention at this point of time. We feel that we are only able to commit lesser and lesser time to the site and thus not able to give you the fullest attention deserved. Jax and I have ran this site on our own for a long time, and truth be told, we are also tired and ready to move on to different ventures. We love Rain very much, and will continue to support him but at our own capacity, at our own time and with our own unbiased ways.

BIG THANK YOU for supporting us throughout this time, through our ups-and-downs, and from the bottom of our hearts, we are truly thankful for all the love and support you have continued to show us. We know that there are many up and coming Rain sites/forums out there, so we are honored that you have been our supporters. There is currently a whole new generation of Rain fans who are working tirelessly and whole-heartedly to spread the name and love of Rain and all that he stands for, and we are happy and contented to take a step back and let this fresh and creative generation take over. All Clouds are always united in Rain–no matter where or what circumstances or stages of lives that we may find ourselves in. We will always be Rain fans together. Again, thank you to EACH of you!

Peace,
Deb & Jax

*Although we won’t be updating the site consistently anymore, the site will not be removed. Access to past archives will always be available.*

THANK YOU to those who have offered your help to take over the site, but we will not be accepting any offers to keep the site going….so sorry, please understand ❤

☁☂ Announcements ☂☁

Hi everyone! Today’s our official last day for the site. Over the last week or so since we posted the announcement, we have been OVERWHELMED by your heart-felt responses. Your kind words mean the world to us. We are so thankful and touched by you and your support from all over. This is such a bittersweet moment for us, but we know that all of us will still be around and connected somehow through Rain and our continuous love and support for him. Jax and I will still be ‘lingering’ around the internet world, hehe….

And for all those who have been asking, we have updated a list of Rain fan-links where you can visit and join. Many of them have been great supporters of us, some of which we have personal connections and friendships with, so please lend your support to them. They are constantly updated with Rain news and are great sources of information for anything Rain-related.

We will continue to check our email and Twitter accounts for a little while more, but not for very long. And as mentioned previously, the site itself will be left active for you to have access to the archives at any time.

Thank you again, and we love you all. Aja aja hwaiting!!

P/S: Also feel free to keep posting your comments but note that we will not be monitoring them anymore. We ask that you just be mindful and respectful of others who may be reading them. *wink*

05.31.11 [Yonhap News] Seoul District Public Prosecutors’ Office indicts ‘Lee’ and two reporters on charges of spreading false reports about Rain.

South Korean authorities have indicted ‘Lee’ (55), a businessman who works on clothes, ‘Kim’ and ‘Yu’ who work as investigative reporters for internet newspaper ‘S’ and news agency ‘N’, respectively, on charges of spreading false reports about Rain.

In March of last year, ‘Lee’ filed a complaint against Rain claiming that Rain embezzled company funds, and he even released the related information to the two reporters to let the papers soon get hold of the story. So, Rain sued the three for libel over the remarks last October.

Before this, the court ruled Rain not guilty at the end of December last year.

05.30.11 [MTV] Hot Dude Of The Day: Rain Travels Around The World With MCM

So Rain is basically a pop singer GOD in Korea (and in our office, too). He’s kiiiinndd of like our Justin Timberlake. He sings, he dances, he acts, he even cares about FASHUN just like JT (his clothing line is called Six to Five. Obvi you can’t read anything on the site unless you know Korean, but STILL.) So we’re WELL AWARE of his hotness and his, um, ability to seduce us.

Luckily, Rain’s fans (who call themselves Clouds! AWWWW.) posted his latest campaignwith German accessories house MCM, which OOZES of luxury travel. We can just imaginehim rocking all of the next looks in different cities around the globe.
