In the latest video uploaded on Rain’s YouTube channel, Season B Season, Rain took fans to the neighborhood where the old JYP Entertainment company building was located.
On this day, he went around the neighborhood reminiscing about the old days when he was a trainee and JYPE and made his debut two decades ago. In particular, Rain also sat down at a cafe for a deep conversation about the future of his career.
Rain opened up his candid thoughts and shared, “I’ve been having these thoughts lately, ‘Am I following with the current times? Or has it come to the time that I need to end things?” He continued, “I’m very thankful to be a celebrity but I ask myself, ‘I am working hard to meet the standards?’ This is what I feel. Of course, I’m working hard but I sometimes think ‘There are so many other (celebrities) that people could watch. I seldomly think ‘Do I need to be active?’ these days.”
The producers comforted Rain and explained, “They say Park Ji Sung (famous Korean soccer player) pushed his body to the limit during his prime, which is why he can’t play soccer anymore. It might be that same feeling because you ran too fast (in your prime) and you’re going a bit slower.”
The staff also added, “Shouldn’t you continue with activities like J.Y. Park?” to which Rain responded, “I don’t think I can match Jin Young hyung’s passion,” making everyone laugh.
After watching the video, fans commented, “Don’t think about such nonsense and continue working,” “I wish you’re happy,” “I’m so envious that he can think about retirement at that age,” “I wish he continues with activities for a long time,” and “You’re so awesome. The best solo singer in the industry.”
