40,000 of Rain’s fans attended his concert at the Tokyo Dome on 25 June 2007 & he was the first Korean singer to hold a solo concert at the stadium.He performed 21 songs during the concert, including ‘Free Way’ (Japanese single). He also spoke some Japanese, delighting the fans.
As the first K-pop star to perform at the Tokyo Dome, Rain admitted he was nervous at first. The Tokyo Dome is the biggest concert hall in Japan, where only a few foreign artists such as Madonna, Mariah Carey, Rolling Stones, and Japanese superstars like Ayumi Hamasaki and Arashi can perform.
`When Japanese producers suggested a concert at the Tokyo Dome, I doubted if I could do it. But I am glad that tickets have sold well," Rain said, in a press conference before the concert. His Tokyo Dome concert proved Rain's immense popularity in Japan. Japanese celebrities such as members of the popular male group SMAP, namely Masahiro Nakai, Tsuyoshi Kusanagi and Shingo Katori were seen at the concert.
Korean celebrities such as Ha Ji-Won (Oh! She is my fav. Korean actress) and SS501 were also there to watch his great performance. ;)
