Now that I'm in the height of my Rain love/obsession... I felt the need to post these.
First off, off his recently release album, Rainism, he recorded one song (Love Story) in Korean, English, AND Mandarin. There are totally MVs for all three.

I like the Mandarin version best, which is highly understandable, since I mostly listen to mandopop anyways. BUT, the MV for the english version seems to make the most sense.
(BTW, I REALLY like this mv. I love how Rain is totally acting ridiculous in the first part (he's dressed all cool, but then totally rides a scooter, and can't seem to put his sunglasses on correctly), but then there's like this full on rain-getting-the-shit-beat-out-of-him ending. HIGHlarious)
Also, because it's awesome... Rain's performance on the Korean Film Awards

Stripper poles? Check. Bedazzled wife beaters? Check. Shocked Korean actresses? Check. Half naked Rain? Check. This video makes my world.
Also, he's totally REALLY singing part of it, which is so foreign to me as an american (when musicians do live shows, they usually lip synch, because they're all dancing, and get totally out of breath), but awesome. He even sounds pretty good despite being totally out of breath from all the crazy dancing. I like the ending, because he totally just WALKS OFF nonchalantly.
