Rain appearing in HK magazines

U Magazine 127期





Rain Going To Hollywood
Here's a brief summary of the article in the magazine:

(3rd page: the top section with quotation marks--Birthday Wish)

-- Due to his work overseas, he's had to sacrifice a lot of time being away from his father and sister. He said that he does pay attention to his personal life, and he knows that he has to cherish every single personal moment that he gets since they are rare to come by.
-- He wants to travel alone to Europe and not tell anyone, but he doesn't think he can do that, so it's really just a hope.
-- Since he's turning 26 next month, his personal birthday wish is that his family and friends are happy and healthy, and that his work will carry through smoothly.

(The rest of the article...)
-- He said that even though he's a big star in Asia, he cannot expect to go to a foreign place and just land a lead role right away.
-- He has done numerous commercials and earned lots of money but he said that that isn't the issue. His music has been successful and so now is the time for him to search for a new target in his career (hence Speed Racer). He didn't mind starting off with a supporting role at all.
-- He said it was strange in the beginning while filming in front of a green screen, but after 2 or 3 days it became more fun, like as if he was going to an amusement park. The set was huge with some 'cars' in which he sat in them for his scenes. Due to the vibration of the car movements, his back would start aching just after half an hour of sitting. So there was both fun and pain.
-- His roles in Speed Racer and Cyborg are different from each other; one is fast paced while the other mellow. Speed Racer is a whole new experience for him, and he never imagined that he would even disguise as a woman for his role!
-- He said that even though his English has improved and that he still has a lot of time to spend in the States for his work, his work in Asia is beginning to surface again and he knows that ultimately Asia is still the place to be because of the tremendous amount of support he gets from his fans in Asia.
