Singer Rain does his bit for flood victims.

Endorser of cable entertainment channel, XTM, is putting up five pieces of his costume and accessories used in the commercial for charity auction. The auction will take place on XTM's website (http://www.xtmtv.com) until the 10th of next month. All proceeds of this auction will be donated to the flood victims in the name of successful bidders.

Fans will have a chance to bid for the clothes and accessories which Rain has worn before, and can help the needy flood victims. The charity auction will feature the T-shirt and bracelet worn by Rain during the commercial, as well as the toy robot and the shirt and floral belt worn during his photoshoot.

The commercial featuring the t-shirt and bracelet has been broadcasting since 2 Aug. The storyline says of a bomb flying into his house and even under the circumstances of his ceiling falling, Rain is still determined to finish watching the programme on XTM. The content is very interesting and received many good responses, especially the close-up features which have never been shown in other commercials, giving us a good chance to appreciate Rain's mischievous and adorable expressions. One can fully feel the new charismatic and humorous side of Rain.

Says the XTM staff, "The branding commercial with Rain has received very good responses, and many people have inquired about the little props used in the commercial." They hope to please the fans of Rain, and at the same time, lend a hand to the flood victims.

Other than that, XTM has also prepared a total of 22 items to be given away in a draw for unsuccessful bidders, including 10 autographed Rain posters, 4 t-shirts they have prepared for the commercial, 2 necklaces, 2 bracelets, 1 pair of canvas shoes and 2 hats.
