[IBTimes] US$500,000 – Rain "This Is Reward For My Movie"

When world star singer Rain appeared in the Hollywood movie "Ninja Assassin", his receiving of US$500,000 was part of the reward amount which he will receive based on the results of his performance. On Feb 12th, Rain’s management company J.Tune Entertainment indicated that when Rain signed the contract for "Ninja Assassin" last March, Rain received US$500,000 at signing.

They went on to say that Rain had completed the film shoot the first half of last year while the second half of the year was the shooting for Rain's childhood role; for this the performing expense was at 8.3 million (Korean Won) and they expressed the standpoint of whether or not this 8.3 million won for Rain was a worthy value.

J.Tune Entertainment also said that 8.3 million won was actually received by Lee Joon, J.Tune’s new trainee/actor who plays Rain’s childhood role.

J.Tune Entertainment indicated that compared to other Hollywood stars, Rain's receiving amount of US$500,000 is not a very great deal, but is similar to that of a new person making a debut in Hollywood. However, compared to the aspect of money, having a good opportunity like this is even more significant.

Meanwhile, "Ninja Assassin" – in which Rain plays the lead role Raizo–is estimated to hit the screens in the US and other places this summer.
