Who are three people that receive the credit for making "Rain" an actor?
Writer Lee Kyeong-hee added the title of 'actor' to 'singer "Rain"'. This writer wrote KBS "Sang Doo! Let's Go To School", "Rain"'s debut drama in fall 2003. At this time, "Rain" was on the verge of releasing his second album. This writer took a new face with only one album who had no acting experience and made him into a star. She also worked with him in 2005 in KBS "A Love to Kill". She even gave him tonic medicine and treated him like a son. In every album, "Rain" mentions her in his thanks.

"Think of meeting an eight-year old aids patient. How would you feel? I tried to portray a doctor who considers the patient rather than the disease".
It seemed that Jang would always suit the role of a defiant teenager perfectly, but looking at him now, there were visible traces of past times.
Actor Jang Hyeok, 32, will play the main character, Min Gi-seo, on the MBC drama 'Thank You', (Scenario: Lee Kyeong-hee, Director: Lee Jae-dong, Wed, Thu, 21:55) which will air on March 21. There was obvious tension on Jang Hyuk's face when he met with reporters after the drama briefing, which was held on March 14 at Hilton Hotel in Namdaemun-gu, Seoul.
"With this being my first formal meeting in three years, I found that although I was smiling and appeared calm, my legs were shaking uncontrollably. (laughs) After being discharged from military service, when I was on my way to practice the script for the first time, I was so excited. I checked later, and it turned out that my blood press...| More

The new KBS Monday-Tuesday series "A Love To Kill", written by Lee Kyeong-hee and produced by Kim Kyoo-tae, has already drawn significant attention from viewers ahead of its premiere on Oct. 31. The series' leading actor, "Rain" (real name Chung Ji-hoon), said that viewers would be surprised when they see the pilot episode of the drama, and it seems he is absolutely correct.
Immediately after the teaser of "A Love To Kill" aired on Oct. 20 prior to the Wednesday-Thursday series "My Rosy Life", the drama's Web site bulletin board was flooded with messages. It was the second teaser for the new series so far, with the first one airing on Oct. 13.
The 38-second-long teaser caught viewers' eyes by featuring a bruised "Rain", who plays a K-1 fighter in the drama, against the backdrop of a cloudy sky in the heart of a city, and his co-star Sin Min-ah against a clear blue sky at the seashore. The teaser was produced in the form of a wide aspect movie-like screen. The final scene of the t...| More
