Rain, First Asian entertainer interviewed by Time

The U.S. magazine Time has requested an interview with singer/actor Rain.

Rain's entertainment company J-Tune Entertainment said that Time wanted to interview Rain in their video interview corner '10 Questions'. The interview is planned to take place in Korea, and Rain will spare some time during his interviews for the Korean promotion of "Speed Racer".

'10 Questions' is a program that interviews famous people around the world, from politicians to entertainers. Internet users from around the world post questions on Time.com and the editor chooses ten questions for the interview.

Some entertainers who have been interviewed include George Clooney, Al Pacino, Susan Sarandom, Jennifer Lopez, and Natalie Portman. Rain is the first from Asia.

Rain was chosen for 2006 'Time 100' (a yearly list of the 100 most influential people in the world), and placed first for an online poll used to choose the 'Time 100". He has been called the 'Prince of Asian pop'.

Rain is third for the online poll for 2008 'Time 100'.
