Dear Sir,
We are supporters of Rain, (pfc Jung Ji Hoon) from overseas countries.
We are extremely concerned about the hectic schedules assigned to pfc Jung Ji Hoon and other PR soldiers attached to the Defense Agency for Public Information Services. It has come to a point we could no longer remain silent, and we hope you will take our petition as serious.

These were just known schedules, and we know there were other duties as well which we are not aware of. Many of the events were announced and added at very short notice. As a result, they clashed with the routine schedules that pfc Jung Ji Hoon and others had to carry out.
The schedules were so packed that in some cases (in particular the regional community events), pfc Jung Ji Hoon, and others, had to make day trips between regions and had to travel at night right after a performance, returning to their base only next day morning, and had to work right afterwards.
Looking at the schedules, it appeared that pfc Jung Ji Hoon did not have proper rest days in the month of June.
Of course we fully support pfc Jung Ji Hoon and others to participate in genuine military events to boost the morale of Korea’s 500,000 military members.
But many overseas fans had attended these activities, and we discovered that they were not official military events. We also found out pfc Jung Ji Hoon in particular, had been exploited. To give some concrete examples:
120609 제6회 포천 일동 오뚜기 한마음 축제@일동고등학교 (포천)
This had no relation to military affairs. In fact last year, this festival took place as an independent, private sector event in the city of Pocheon without the participation or assistance from the Defense Agency for Information Services PR support group. We do not understand why this year the PR soldiers had to be mobilized to the festival. Overseas fans went there and witnessed a complete disorder in the audience, with people falling down while rushing to occupy seats and some were injured in the process.

A PR soldier is an official member of the military service, and not a celebrity entertainer.
We cannot see how Yeosu Expo is related to Army activities. All the promotions suggested to us it is a civilian event to attract visitors to the Expo. The fact that only pfc Jung Ji Hoon was being asked to host a press interview even gave the impression it was his solo concert.
The promotion was very successful, with a huge number of visitors on that day, many from overseas who came specially for the concert, as reported by media news.
This is good, and we are happy to see a successful Yeosu Expo. But what has it to do with the army? What is the role of pfc Jung Ji Hoon here? A PR soldier or a celebrity entertainer? Isn’t this a civilian event disguised as a military concert? Are there any guidelines to define the meaning of military events?
120620 부천시민과 함께하는 군악연주회@부천시민회관 (부천
We had evidence that pfc Jung Ji Hoon had been exploited here in Bucheon,.
Media news showed local community leaders taking photos with pfc Jung Ji Hoon (not in military uniform). Fans had seen pfc Jung Ji Hoon being exposed to unexpected onslaughts of autograph requests from people with acquaintances related to the military.
These are just some examples.
While we applaud the fact that Rain, the artist we cherish and support, is given the honorable duty to boost the morale of Korea’s soldiers, and he has been doing his best as we can see in all his performances, we feel very sad and concerned that his own physical condition seemed to suffer because of the excessive, overloaded schedules. We are concerned that the busy schedules do not allow him to recover fully from his cellulitis. He had just caught a flu due to overwork a few days ago. We know other PR soldiers also suffered physically from such work overloads and we feel very sorry for them as well.
We therefore petition the Defence Agency for Public Information Services to disclose the official schedule of duties assigned to the PR soldiers. Currently, the schedule of the official military event “Consolatory Train” is publicly available. This is good and clear to allow the PR soldiers themselves to know their own duties.
We would like to know, other than “Consolatory Train”, if there are other official military events scheduled for 2012, or at least for the next three months. We believe the capable and efficient Defense Agency for Information Services should have good planning, and it is not too much to ask for a 3 month schedule. We know schedules may change, therefore it is even more important to have the schedules in advance, so that proper planning and management could be made to avoid clashes.
Last but not least, we petition the Defense Agency for Public Information Services not to allow the abuse of authority to disguise private broadcast and regional community events as military activities.
We believe a system is in place when soldiers have to perform overtime work, they get compensation holidays, and we believe this applies to PR soldiers as well. We urge the Defence Agency for Public Information Services to review the schedules of the PR soldiers regularly to make sure they have a good balance between work and rest.
Thank you for listening to our voices.
