Rain : I appreciate Japanese fans welcoming me so, although I’ve sometimes found some time to pay the fans a visit while
staying in the U.S.A. [I cannot figure out the structure or meaning of this sentence. Sorry. But I am curious..
And there’s no difference between being a solo performer and being in a group.
Rain : ‘Love Song’ is a song about a man, who wants to stop his girl friend from leaving him, and it did actually happen me as well.
I’ve written both the words and the music of ‘Love Song’, whose motive comes from my personal experience.The main theme of its music video is
also that a man misses his girl friend and wants to stop her from leaving him.
R : What does ‘Love Song’ mean to you? Rain : This song is based on a real life but is not reserved just for the love.
In addition to a love story, it tells the story of a social issue as well. My intention is just to make a good song by bringing back memories of
the happy days of the good old times.
R : What is your favorite song in the album? Rain : I spent a lot of time on ‘Love Song’, therefore, I think I like this most.
R : How was your album recorded? Rain : The recording of the album was done in 3 different languages, Korean, English, and Japanese from the
beginning stage. Japanese pronunciation was very difficult because I had not been studying Japanese steadily.
R : Please tell me more about your album’s title? Rain : It means, “Let us [go] back to the basics and start work with
a renewed mind and with humility,” while [also] trying to tell my fans [frank confessions]. So, unlike my previous concerts where I performed
in big halls which have accommodations for 20000~30000, I try to directly visit my fans to offer them to see a great show and have a great time,
in which we can communicate with each other in small halls for 2000~3000.
Rain : Thanks for giving me your love, although I haven’t stayed in Japan for a long time… This concert tour has been arranged as
a part of a service for my fans, which is for those of you who have supported and loved me a lot, while taking time from my
schedule. I wish you could just be happy by this concert tour, and I’ll visit you often in the future.
R: I think Japanese fans are looking forward to the concert tour…
