Regarding why Rain left JYP's old boss and set up a new company by himself.
We will start from October 22, 2008. On October 22, 2008, the famous Korean host Kang Ho-dong had already discussed this topic in the program "Golden Fishery: The Knee Taoist" hosted by him. Rain answered in the show: "When the bird's wings are hard, it will fly higher and see further. Build a new nest and give birth to offspring, so that the population can live better. Only when more singers go to the world can Korea be known to more people and reproduce offspring can the descendants spread more widely. So I talked a lot with my elder brother, and he also helped me a lot about going out (leave the company and flying solo). Now if I have anything, he will also help me." Our relationship at this time is no longer as simple as the boss's employee level, but more like brotherly affection. )
And in the episode "Golden Fishing Ground: Taoist Priest" Park Jin-young answered: "If I feel sad because I haven't renewed the contract, I will regard Jung Ji-hoon (Rain's real name Jung Ji-hoon) as a singer, not my younger brother."
In addition, on February 23, 2009, Discovery Channel - "Hip Korea" also talks about what a CEO of JYP said: "We have many dreams that we have never realized, such as training rookies, doing other business affairs, etc.."
Recently, Rain and Park Jin-yong collaborated again 13 years apart, launching a new single "Switch To Me" with the Chinese name: (change it to me), which also set off a wave of dance craze imitating this song on TikTok, and this single is also full of entertainment and storyline. From the dances they played together and their attitude of teasing each other on variety shows, we can tell that their relationship is no longer as simple as the boss and the employee, but is sublimated like brothers.
It is not difficult to see that Rain left JYP because he wanted to become a musician who could stand alone, rather than a simple singer who was packaged. He once said that he wanted to become a music producer who surpassed Park Jin-young. After establishing J.Tune Entertainment Company in 2007, when he produced his fifth solo album "Rainism", he not only repositioned his image, personally participated in the selection and music production, but also tried to write music and lyrics. There were eight songs he wrote or wrote lyrics; in addition, he also trained new singers to act as their music producer. The male five-person group MBLAQ is his hard work.
RAIN realized his dream step by step through his own efforts and became a real musician.
As a boy, I basically don’t know how to be a Korean male star, but rain is the only Korean male star I like because of a romantic house. I have watched all the TV series and movies he made. I have also heard of his album, especially the recent new song (changed to me). I also learned the dance in it on Douyin, which is so exciting. Haha
If you like RAIN as much as I do, let’s share your opinion on him in the comment section. [Cute]
