Singer Rain, who left JYP

Rain, a super star in entertainment industry, who left JYP

After 90’s, you will fail if you leave your first management company which helps you debut. This situation happens all the time.

Those famous management companies, SM Entertainment Company, JYP, YG, DSP raised many superstars. However, when these superstars leave their companies, most of them will become normal or even disappear. In the past, these superstars can self-manage their own business after they leave their management companies. Now, the situation became different. Many artists deeply depend on their management companies. The management companies are very professional. They divide all their work in detail. The artists only need to concentrate all their effort in music and album. The management will hire many famous producers, sign contracts with them and let them only work for their companies. Those big management companies’ artists have all the priorities. Therefore, it is very hard for an individual artist to self manage his own business.

However, those real talent artist can make it different.

Rain, who left JYP, is one of those different artists although JYP said Rain did not have outstanding songs in one recent interview.

Although J.Tune has not yet have any specific report card to show after Rain left JYP, people have great expectation on Rain. Rain has successfully entered into Hollywood market. Comparatively, JYP’s ability still can not be recognized in Japanese and American markets.

JYP’s songs can not get affirmation from billboard and Oricon. Although many domestic fans liked JYP’s songs, those songs could not get high appraisal in the field. It was just a promotion that JYP’s photo was in billboard’s cover. It is not because of JYP’s getting the affirmation of his songs. At the beginning of this year, JYP said he would try hard to enter into American music market. Till now we haven’t heard anything yet.

On the other hand, Rain, after left JYP, has great development in the field. After being a supporting role in “Speed Racer”, Rain became a leading role in “Ninja Assassin”. It is the unbelievable development for the domestic artists. Maybe not far in the future, you will hear that Rain releases his albums with the top record companies. Rain’s name kept on appearing in TIME 100 and British Encyclopedia. Rain even attended a famous talk show in USA.

This result indicated that different artist can make different achievement.

Rain’s most admirable personality is his endeavor. Rain’s amiability make him different from other artists. Many people who know Rain are moved by his kindness and loyalty.

When Lee Kyeong-hee, who treats Rain as her own son, was depressed because of her work were criticized, Rain believed her work unconditionally. There is no difference between now when Rain is a world superstar and before, Rain always give warmth and help to the people around him.

Maybe it is easier for Rain to stay with JYP. However, Rain is trying his best to surpass others. He wants to produce his own albums. He wants to have the worldwide concerts. He is planning to involve all the procedures, including clothing, choreographing dance and production. Rain wants to show his best style and feelings to people.

Although Rain has succeed, he still considers himself as a new comer because he is the person who always wants to enhance his own value.
