Rain holds his final concert in Seoul before enlistment

Singer/actor Rain ended his very last concert before his enlistment to the cheers of 10,000 fans. After debuting in 2002 with "Bad Guy", Rain raced through 10 years of singing, acting, and even producing. He was active in many different countries, and his global fame even reached Hollywood, thus earning him the title, 'world star'. All this fame and glory will be put on hold for two years once Rain starts his mandatory military service on October 11th. Of course, he couldn't go without holding one last mind-blowing show, and so he went on a nation-wide tour called 'The Best Show'. On September 24th and 25th, Rain held his very last concerts in Seoul, which drew fans not only from all over Korea, but around the world as well. It's said that fans flew in from countries like China and Japan to bid their favorite star farewell. Additionally, reporters spotted his celebrity friends in the audience, like Lee Bum SooMBLAQ, and A Pink. Though the concert began 10 minutes, Rain was received with wild screams as the lights began to dim and lasers shot out across the stage to announce his arrival. He kicked off the show with "Hip Song", and the energy from this performance set the pace for the rest of the night. For 2 hours and 40 minutes, Rain busted out many of his popular hits, such as "How to Avoid the Sun" and "I Do". The fans all sang along without hesitation, and they drew out the loudest screams they could when the star demanded, "Make some noise!". During the concert, Rain also talked lightheartedly about his upcoming enlistment. "I thank everyone who made it to this concert," he said. "Today's show is a little different from my usual shows. I originally wanted to show you my hair dyed in a different color, but I didn't do it because my hair is precious to me!" Eventually, all good things come to an end, and Rain concluded the night by singing "Instead of Saying Goodbye". He promised to return to his fans in two years, and asked that they patiently wait for him. Source + Image: Star News
