Rain is planning his 5th album to enter USA market next year!

Rain is going to release his 5th album (World Wide version) in the 2nd half of 2007, mainly targeting at USA and the rest of the world.

According to Rain's recent interview by Starnews, "5th album will be released next year as world wide version, as it's part of the plan to enter USA market..." "Mini concerts will be held to release of new songs, and combined with World Wide.... The event(s) shall be organised in S. Korea and other countries..." Rain added, "The initial stage of brain-storming for 5th album was completed.." So let's look forward to it~~

Rain also mentioned that this album mainly includes English songs so that it can be simultaneously released in S. Korea and overseas markets. It is a totally different concept compared to License Album. "Like what I normally did in the past: Conceptualization for 4th album was done during the release of 3rd album... Therefore we have the ideas for next album after the release of 4th album." said Rain.

"Rain's World" was officially released on Oct 13, and created 100,000 copies of sales record in first day! The figure is still going up indeed. In the meantime, Rain began his publicity activities from MBC SHOW! Music Centre on Oct 14.
