2014.01.02 [NEWS] Rain makes a double title track comeback…. Why?

[NEWS] Rain makes a double title track comeback…. Why?

English translation and source loveindacube
Sources:  Newsen Asia Today


Rain brings sexy back with double title tracks "30Sexy" and "LA Song" on January 2nd. Making a comeback with his sixth full-length album Rain Effect, Rain presented listeners with fantasy-like Latin Pop "LA Song" that shows a free-spirited side of himself instead of the existing powerful and masculine image. Meanwhile "30Sexy" portrayed a further-upgraded version of Rain’s existing image.

Rain delivered his thoughts on having stiff competitors in the industry, “Male juniors look cool these days and there are prettier friends too. Since I came back to the music industry after a long while, I frustrated whether to use which card so as to compete with them. And so, we have come to a conclusion of going with the beauty of maturity of those in their 30s. Stripping like previous times or dancing a powerful dance won’t work. I want to create a sexy atmosphere through expressions and gazes too. , I thought of showing a maturer look through music as well, not just through my outer appearances. I want to hear people saying that I’m not just a singer, but an artist. With that as my reason, I’ve wrote and composed all tracks on this album.”

Rain recently sat for an interview and revealed the reasons for writing "LA Song," “Someone came to me and said, ‘why there isn’t a song of yours that can be sung while we’re drinking in karaokes?’ And that’s when I started thinking of writing an exciting song, hence, the birth of "LA Song,” he revealed.

Rain also confessed that he was frustrated when choosing a title track between "30Sexy" and "LA Song," “’30Sexy’ is a song that shows my image, but everyone seemed to like "LA Song". It’s a song that differs from my image. "LA Song" gained much responses, and I couldn’t really choose as well, so we just decided to go for a double title track,” he explained.

“I tried producing this song with a combative visual in mind. I felt that I had to show an obvious difference than the current idol friends in the industry, and that difference must not be too old-fashioned too. I wouldn’t dare to say that I can give a strong impact on the industry but still,  I feel that I had to show something different.”

“If I were to show "30Sexy," everyone would say ‘that’s really amazing, it’s really you.’ I wanted to show something that’s unlike myself, so I produced "LA Song."  To be honest, I’ve thrown away many songs while producing "LA Song" and since everyone loves it, we just decided to make it a title track,” revealing a short behind story.

Meanwhile, Rain personally wrote for "LA Song" which includes some cute and lively lyrics, a song that portrays the innocence of this 31 year old singer with its cute and lively lyrics. This fantasy-like song injects an addictive serum that makes one to dance along with. The accompanied music video further showed a different side of Rain apart from the existing one we knew.

Soloist Rain will be having his first domestic activity after his discharge from military service in July.

On the 25th, according to entertainment officials, the singer will be holding his first fan meet in KyungHee University, Seoul on October 12th 4PM.

Registered fanclub of Rain, ‘Cloud’ has recently posted a similar announcement on their homepage.

This will be Rain’s first official domestic activity since his discharge 3 months ago. It is expected that hit songs will be performed and various activities will be conducted.

Previously, the fan meet was supposed to be held on August 3rd but unfortunately it was delayed due to insufficient preparations then.

This fan meet does not mean that Rain will make a comeback,” and, “This fan meet is titled as, ‘Clouds 8th fan meeting’. We have yet to decide on the detailed plan yet”, he revealed.

Discharged since July 10th, Rain has yet to carry out any domestic activities. He has, however, went for overseas schedule such as in Thailand and China.



Korean

비, 10월12일 韓팬미팅 개최..제대 후 첫 국내무대

가수 비(본명 정지훈)가 제대 후 첫 국내 무대를 확정했다.

25일 가요계에 따르면 비는 오는 10월 12일 오후 4시 서울 경희대학교 평화의 전당에서 팬 미팅을 개최한다.

회원제인 비의 공식 팬클럽 '구름' 홈페이지에도 최근 이 같은 내용을 골자로 하는 공지가 올라온 것으로 확인됐다.

비의 국내 공식일정은 지난 7월10일 전역한 뒤 3개월 만이다. 모처럼 국내외 팬들과 마주하는 자리이니만큼 이번 행사는 비의 히트곡 무대와 다양한 이벤트 등으로 꾸며질 예정이다.

당초 비는 지난 8월 3일 이 장소에서 팬 미팅을 갖고 2년 만에 국내외 팬들과 마주할 계획이었으나, 준비 미흡 등을 이유로 불가피하게 일정을 잠정 연기했다.

행사 관계자는 이날 스타뉴스에 "입대 전부터 이미 팬들과 약속되었던 행사로 본격 컴백을 의미하는 것은 아니다"며 "행사 명칭은 비 공식 팬클럽 '구름 8기 팬미팅'이며, 아직 세부적인 내용은 정해지지 않았다"고 말했다.

지난 7월10일 전역한 비는 현재까지 국내에서 별다른 활동을 하지 않고 있다. 다만 태국, 중국 등 아시아 지역을 중심으로 해외 스케줄을 소화해왔다.

지난 8월 24일 태국 방콕 임팩트 무앙 통 타니에서 열린 태국 최대 음악축제 '소닉뱅2013' 무대에 올라 현지 팬들을 만났고, 지난 9월2일 중국 상하이에서 광고 프로모션을 진행했다.

소속사 관계자는 앞서 스타뉴스에 "국내 음반 작업은 아직 시작하지 않은 상태"라며 "갓 제대한 만큼 얼마간은 휴식을 취한 뒤 신곡 작업 등에 돌입할 것"이라고 강조했다.

한편 비는 지난 16일 큐브엔터테인먼트의 레이블 회사인 큐브DC와 전속 계약을 맺었다.

会員制のビの公式ファンクラブ' 雲(クルム) 'ホームページにも、最近このような内容をとするお知らせが載せられたことが確認された。

ビの国内の公式日程は、7月10日、除隊した後、3ヵ月ぶりだ。せっかく、国内外のファンと向き合う席なので、今回の行事はビのヒット曲の舞台と様々なイベントなどで構成される予定だ。

当初、ビは8月3日この場所でファンミーティングを持って2年ぶりに、国内外のファンと向き合う計画だったが、準備不十分などを理由に避けられないように日程を暫定的に延期していた。

行事関係者は同日、スターニュースに"入隊前から既にファンたちと約束された行事へ本格的にカムバックを意味するものではない"、"イベント名称はビ、公式ファンクラブ'雲8期のファンミーティング'であり、まだ具体的な内容は決まっていない"と述べた。

7月10日除隊したビは現在まで国内ではこれといった活動をしていない。ただ、タイ、中国などアジア地域を中心に、海外スケジュールに集中してきた。

8月24日、タイ・バンコクのインパクト・ムアン・トン・タニで開かれたタイ最大の音楽祭'ソニクベン2013'舞台に上がって現地のファンを会ったし、9月2日、中国上海で広告プロモーションを行った。

所属会社の関係者は、これに先立ってスターニュースに"国内アルバム作業はまだ始めていない状態"と"只今除隊しただけにしばらくの休息を取った後、新曲作業などに突入する"と強調した。

一方、ビは16日キューブエンターテインメントのレーベル会社であるキューブDCと専属契約を結んだ。

Singer and actor Rain will put on a great joint show in Thailand upcoming August.

According to his management agency 'Cube Entertainment' on the 18th, Rain will have a performance at Sonic Bang, the best music festival in Thailand, on August 24th, which features many famous Korean and foreign musicians including Korea's Epik High, the U.S.'s top hip hop group 'Far East Movement' where a Korean-American member belongs, Jason Mraz, etc.

This will be Rain's first performance after his two years of military service last 2nd, which attracts fans' attention. However, Cube Entertainment said, "The schedule of the concert was set out before Rain's contracts with Cube, so this concert doesn't have very much to do with what he makes his comeback."

Cube Entertainment officially announced that Rain had newly signed on with the agency at the end of May.

[13-01-07] We’d like to share this post, which we believe accurately, reflects our own position regarding this issue.


Posted by   [구름]강상연 


English translation by 화니

Currently, we are preparing an official statement in the name of the "Rain Fan Club Cloud" to protest against the media coverage of this issue.
Unfortunately, we are unable to post and share the text of this statement with you immediately, because as I noted several times already in my response comments to the notification post, even the Ministry of Defense has been making conflicting announcements regarding the number of leave days in question, and the press media is churning out reports containing arbitrary interpretations based on uncertain data, and under such circumstances, if we issue a response that is inadvertently also based on inaccurate data, this will only exacerbate the confusion and this may risk lowering our credibility with members of Cloud as well.
Therefore, we refRain from sharing the statement too hastily, out of concern that it will be dismissed as yet another addition to the growing body of unreliable reading material.
Currently, it appears that there will not be any further changes to the text, but since additional unanticipated information is unfolding in regards to the 5th army division and vacations for soldiers in the Defense Agency for Public Information Services, we would like to wait until the final announcements are released from the Defense Ministry’s disciplinary committee, which has been delayed until next week, before we make the final edits to our text.
We ask for your patience, considering that we are in a position that compels us to be all the more careful and take all precautions before publicizing any statement.
I provide this link to a text which was posted today amid the frustrations, because I think it gives satisfactory expression to the position of Cloud’s members.
I encourage you to translate it into multiple languages if possible, and to disseminate it widely through Twitter, Facebook, etc.
 

--------------------------------------------------------------------


On how the press media’s exaggeration of the number of leave days granted to Rain aggravates the public’s witch hunt … and on the extreme pettiness of the controversy over the missing hat..
http://blog.naver.com/syidsyid/110155888241

- An absurd calculation that indiscriminately counts required visits to the provinces for military performances as well as overnight practices in preparation for performance work at the Expo as vacation days!!!

Imagine how exasperated you would feel if you went away on a business trip for ten days to perform work for your company, and then you were told upon return, "Well, anyhow, you were away from the company so this means you were absent from work for ten days? Why have you been absent so much?" This is exactly the situation that Rain is facing at the moment in regards to the controversy about his military leaves.

Rain went to the provinces because he was ordered to give a performance, and he also dutifully stood on the Expo stage just as he was ordered. Since it’s the military we’re talking about, if you’re told to crawl, you crawl, and so it was that Rain went off to comply with his orders.

Such trips for military work included the 19 days Rain spent giving "K-Force Special Show" performances, and 25 days of his stage rehearsals and recordings for various events. Now, however, the press media bundles all these events together and refers to them as vacation days.

The media’s logic appears to be that just because Rain did not sleep in his own military base on those days, such overnight leaves should all be regarded as vacations regardless of whether he was away to perform his work duties. This is indeed an absurd argument.

What exactly is the number of days Rain received as actual vacation days over the courses of his service as a member of the Defense Agency for Public Information Services? In truth, it amounts only to 27 days.
The 27 days of vacation were exaggerated into a total of 71 days by the gossip mongering media by adding on trips made for military work. What an unreasonable calculation this is indeed!

[Special News Report]"It is a distortion to claim that Rain used a total of 71 days for vacations and leaves" (Shin In Gyun) http://news.ichannela.com/politics/3/00/20130105/52072657/1
Representative Shin pointed out first of all that the 44 days of overnight leaves granted to Rain for military work duties should be subtracted from the total of 71 days discussed by the media.
Those 44 days include 25 days on which Rain was engaged in choreography rehearsals in preparation for the Yeosu Expo, and the 19 days on which he gave performances for the military’s "K-Force Special Show" program.
Representative Shin argued that"The 19 days on which Corporal Jung performed on the 'K-Force Special Show' should be regarded as work assignments rather than as personal overnight leaves. He went to the location to perform his duties just as in the case of expedition tRaining, and therefore those days should be subtracted from the total in question."
It is a misperception to think that entertainment soldiers rest on days when they are not giving performances. When they are not scheduled for performances, they are without exception ordered to participate in military tRaining. They complete physical tRaining or the 30km march just like any other soldier. Does it seem likely that the budget-strapped Defense Ministry would give these entertainment soldiers free room and board just because no performances are scheduled?

-From an interview with 'Park Hyo Shin' from Kookbang Ilbo (National Defense Daily News) -
There are indeed very many occasions when we give performances all across the country. To begin with, there are 52 ‘K-Force Special Show’ programs scheduled for each year, and then there’s also support work to be performed for various events and radio program performances as well. Often, we go out to work at events even after not getting much sleep, trying to catch a few minutes of sleep on the bus on the way to the performance site, and when we open our eyes, we’re already at the performance site. We finish the performance and get back on the bus, trying again desperately to catch a bit of sleep, and we open our eyes and we’re already arrived at yet another performance site so we begin all over again ..
We frequently give performance out in the provinces, and since the performances end late in the evening, by the time we arrive back at our living quarters it is 1 or 2 in the morning, and the next day we are expected of course to follow the full schedule as usual.

It is not an easy assignment, since we are required to undertake various support work in addition to our basic duties, and we are also participate without exemption in all of the usual drills that ordinary soldiers complete, including mental training, basic military training, extreme cold weather training andintensive training.

- Furor over a hat regulation violation? Let’s think about this honestly …haven’t you ever seen your own boyfriend, brother, or friend not wearing the regulation military hat while on leave?





How about we now all turn into "hat paparazzi" whenever we meet a soldier on the street, whipping out our cameras to capture whether they are wearing their regulatory military hat? Although there may not be any reward, since it appears that it is our sacred civic duty to expose these soldiers without hats who are undermining the discipline of the army of our Republic and subject they to the furor of our criticism, shouldn’t we strive to fulfill our duties?

-Yeon-Hap News Interview with 'Im Tae Hoon', Director of the Center on Military Human Rights -
To begin with, I am against the decision to refer the issue to the disciplinary committee. The reason for this was that Rain was not wearing his hat when he was out on leave. If this violation is to be punished, than to be consistent all soldiers who walk with their hands in their pockets should also be punished. This type of punishment is wrong.
Regarding the criticism that Rain had private meetings while on leave for official work duties:
It is possible that a soldier may go to a convenience store, for example, or take care of a little bit of personal business at such times. Also, if a soldier’s home is in Seoul, it’s also conventionally considered possible that he might briefly meet with a friend. I think it’s excessively harsh to impose such regulations with absolute strictness (only in the case of Rain).

What shall we do now?
It appears that henceforth Korean soldiers will be told that all outside visits made for their military work will also be counted as vacation day, that soldiers will be the target of hat paparazzi if they should ever be caught without their hat or with their hands in their pockets and that even if their home is just across the street, that they must never, ever meet with a friend, their parents or their girlfriend while off base and must return the second they complete their work, and that if they choose to get a ride in their parents’ car on the way back to barracks, they will be referred to the military’s disciplinary committee.
How is this not absurd? 2013 has barely begun, and already we are witnessing a true farce.

[13-01-07] Kami ingin share posting yang kami yakini secara akurat mencerminkan posisia kita dalam masalah ini.

Saat ini, kami sedang mempersiapkan peryataan resmi atas nama “RAIN Fan Club Cloud” untuk memprotes liputan media akan masalah ini.

Sayangnya, kami tidak bisa memposting dan membagi pernyataan ini kepada Anda secepatnya, karena seperti yang saya perhatikan pada tanggapan di posting pemberitahuan, bahkan Departemen Pertahanan sendiri masih mengeluarkan pernyataan yang bertentangan mengenai jumlah hari cuti yang menjadi pertanyaan tersebut, dan media massa dengan sewenang-wenang memutarbalikkan fakta berdasarkan data yang tidak pasti, dan dalam keadaan seperti itu, jika kami [The Cloud] mengeluarkan pernyataan yang didasari data yang tidak akurat, ini hanya akan semakin memperdalam kebingungan dan beresiko menurunkan kredibilitas kami di mata anggota Cloud.

Oleh karena itu, kami menahan diri untuk tidak mengeluarkan pernyataan yang terburu-buru, dengan pertimbangan hal itu hanya akan menambah banyaknya jumlah artikel yang tidak dapat diandalkan.

Sekarang, tampaknya tidak akan ada perubahan lebih lanjut, tapi karena tiba-tiba ada informasi yang terungkap lagi tentang Devisi No.5 dan tentang hari libur untuk prajurit di DEMA, kami ingin menunggu sampai keputusan terakhir diumumkan oleh komisi disipliner Departeman Pertahanan, yang telah ditunda sampai minggu depan, sebelum mengeluarkan pernyataan kami.

Kami meminta kesabaran Anda, mengingat bahwa kita berada dalam posisi yang memaksa kita untuk lebih berhati-hati lagi dan mengantisipasi segala macam kemungkinan sebelum mempublikasikan peryataan apapun. Saya mempersiapkan link ini untuk semua artikel yang telah diposting hari ini ditengah rasa frustrasi, karena saya pikir ini akan membuat anggota Cloud merasa puas.

Saya menganjurkan Anda untuk menterjemahkan artikel ini dalam berbagai bahasa jika mungkin, dan untuk menyebarluaskannya melalui Twitter, Facebook, dll.
  


Tentang bagaimana media massa yang telah secara terus-menerus mengabarkan jumlah 
cuti yang diberikan kepada RAIN telah memperburuk keadaan …dan tentang kepicikan ekstrim atas kontroversi baret yang lenyap.

- Sebuah perhitungan tidak masuk akal yang memasukkan tugas kunjungan ke daerah untuk pertunjukkan militer dan juga bermalam di luar barak dalam rangka latihan untuk pertunjukkan di Expo sebagai hari libur!!!


Bayangkan bagaimana Anda tidak merasa kesal jika Anda melakukan perjalanan bisnis selama sepuluh hari untuk melakukan pekerjaan bagi perusahaan Anda. Dan saat kembali, Anda diberitahu bahwa, “ Yah, bagaimanapun , Anda telah berada diluar kantor berarti Anda tidak hadir bekerja selama sepuluh hari? Mengapa Anda absen sebanyak itu?” Inilah situasi yang dihadapi oleh Rain mengenai kontroversi cutinya.

Rain pergi ke berbagai propinsi karena diperintahkan untuk melakukan pertunjukkan, dan dia juga patuh saat diperintahkan untuk tampil di panggung Expo. Karena kita sedang membahas tentang militer, jika Anda diperintah untuk merangkak, Anda akan merangkak, dan karena itu Rain memenuhi perintahnya.

Perjalanan-perjalanan untuk tugas militer termasuk ke-19 hari dimana Rain tampil di “K-Force Special Show”, dan 25 hari saat dia gladi resik dan rekaman untuk berbagai acara. Tetapi, media massa telah mengumpulkan semua hari tersebut dan menyebutnya sebagai hari libur.

Dasar pemikiran media massa adalah karena Rain tidak tidur di kesatuannya pada hari-hari tersebut di atas, bermalam di luar barak harus dianggap sebagai cuti terlepas dari apakah dia bepergian untuk melaksanakan kewajibannya. Ini merupakan argumentasi yang konyol.

Berapa hari cuti yang diterima oleh Rain sebagai hari libur yang sebenarnya  atas pekerjaannya sebagai anggota DEMA? Sebenarnya, jumlahnya hanya 27 hari.
Ke-27 hari libur tersebut dibesar-besarkan menjadi total 71 hari oleh media gossip dengan menambahkan perjalanan tugas untuk militer. Benar-benar perhitungan yang tidak masuk akal!

[Laporan Khusus] “Adalah suatu kesalahan untuk mengklaim bahwa Rain telah menggunakan 71 hari untuk liburan dan cuti” (Shin In Gyun)
http://news.ichannela.com/politics/3/00/20130105/52072657/ 1
Shin menjelaskan, pertama-tama 44 hari bermalam di luar barak yang diberikan kepada Rain untuk tugas militer harus dikurangi dari total 71 hari yang dinyatakan oleh media.
Ke-44 hari tersebut termasuk 25 hari dimana Rain latihan koreografi untuk persiapan Yeosu Expo, dan 19 hari dimana dia melakukan pertunjukan untuk program acara militer “K-Force Special Show” 
Shin berpendapan bahwa “Ke-19 hari dimana Kopral Jung melakukan pertunjukan untuk ‘K-Force Special Show’ harus dikategorikan sebagai tugas kerja bukan sebagai cuti pribadi. Ia [Rain] pergi ke lokasi untuk melakukan tugasnya sama seperti melakukan perjalanan untuk pelatihan, dan karena itu, hari-hari tersebut seharusnya dikurangi dari jumlah total hari cuti yang dipertanyakan.”
Adalah persepsi yang salah menganggap bahwa para prajurit PR dapat beristirahat pada saat mereka sedang tidak melakukan pertunjukan. Waktu mereka tidak dijadwalkan untuk mengisi acara pertunjukan, tanpa kecuali mereka harus melaksanakan perintah untuk ikut serta dalam pelatihan militer. Mereka melakukan latihan fisik atau latihan berbaris sejauh 30km sama seperti prajurit lainnya. Apakah mungkin Departeman Pertahanan dengan dana terbatas akan memberikan penginapan gratis hanya karena para prajurit PR tidak dijadwalkan untuk melakukan pertunjukan?

-Interview dengan ‘Park Hyo Shin’ dari Kookbang Ilbo (National Defense Daily News)-
Memang ada sangat banyak kesempatan dimana kami melakukan pertunjukan diseluruh penjuru negri. Mulai dengan, 52 program ‘K-Force Special Show’ yang dijadwalkan setiap tahun, dan kemudian ada juga pekerjaan tambahan untuk tampil diberbagai acara dan juga untuk membawakan program radio. Seringkali, kami juga harus berpergian untuk tampil di beberapa acara meskipun kurang tidur, kami berusaha untuk tidur beberapa menit di bis dalam perjalanan menuju lokasi pertunjukan. Kami menyelesaikan pertunjukan dan kembali ke bis, dan mencoba untuk tidur lagi sebentar, dan saat membuka mata, kami sudah tiba di lokasi lain lagi untuk pertunjukan selanjutnya, jadi kami mulai bekerja lagi..
Kami sering melakukan pertunjukan diberbagai propinsi, dan pertunjukan baru selesai larut malam, pada saat tiba kembali di tempat tinggal kami sudah sekitar jam 1 atau 2 pagi, dan hari berikutnya kami diharuskan untuk mengikuti jadwal penuh seperti biasanya.

Ini bukan tugas yang mudah, karena kami dituntut untuk melakukan berbagai pekerjaan pendukung disamping tugas pokok kami sebagai prajurit, dan kami juga berpartisipasi tanpa pengecualian dalam semua latihan yang dilakukan oleh prajurit biasa, termasuk latihan mental, latihan dasar militer, latihan di musim dingin yang ekstrim dan latihan intensif.


- Kehebohan atas pelanggaran peraturan topi? Mari kita berpikir tentang hal ini dengan jujur … tidakkah Anda pernah melihat pacar, atau teman tidak mengenakan topi sesuai peraturan militer saat cuti?
Bagaimana kalau sekarang kita semua merubah menjadi “paparazzi topi” setiap kali bertemu prajurit di jalan, keluarkan kamera untuk memotret apakah mereka mengenakan topi sesuai peraturan militer? Meskipun mungkin tidak akan ada imbalannya, tapi karena tampaknya itu merupakan kewajiban sakral kita sebagai warganegara untuk mengekspos para prajurit tanpa topi yang telah merusak disiplin tentara republik ini dan menjadikan mereka sebagai kehebohan kritik kita, bukankah kita harus berusaha untuk memenuhi kewajiban?

            -Yeon-Hap News Wawancara dengan ‘Im Tae Hoon’, Direktur Pusat Militer Hak Asasi Manusia -
Sejak awal, saya menentang keputusan untuk merujuk masalah tersebut kepada komite disiplin. Alasannya adalah karena Rain tidak mengenakan topi saat dia sedang cuti. Jika pelanggaran ini harus dihukum, maka supaya konsisten, semua prajurit yang berjalan dengan tangan disaku juga harus dihukum. Ini adalah jenis hukuman yang salah.
Mengenai kritik bahwa Rain mengadakan pertemuan pribadi saat bepergian untuk tugas kerja resmi:
Ada kemungkinan bahwa seorang prajurit akan pergi ke took, misalnya, atau mengurus sedikit urusan pribadi pada saat-saat seperti itu. Juga, jika rumah seorang prajurit ada di Seoul, bisa saja secara kebetulan dia bertemu dengan temannya. Saya pikir adalah terlalu keras untuk memberlakukan peraturan tersebut dengan kaku (hanya dalam kasus Rain).

Apa yang harus kita lakukan sekarang?
Tampaknya untuk selanjutnya prajurit di Korea akan diberitahu kalau semua kunjungan ke luar yang dilakukan untuk tugas militer mereka juga akan dihitung sebagai hari libur, bahwa prajurit akan menjadi target paparazzi topi jika mereka sampai tertangkap tanpa topi atau dengan tangan dalam saku dan bahwa meskipun rumah mereka hanya di sebrang jalan, mereka harus sama sekali tidak pernah bertemu dengan teman, orang tua mereka atau pacar mereka saat diluar barak dan harus kembali ke barak pada detik mereka menyelesaikan pekerjaan mereka diluar, dan bahwa jika mereka naik mobil orang tua mereka untuk kembali ke barak, mereka akan dihadapkan pada komite disiplin militer.
Bukankah ini tidak masuk akal? 2013 baru saja mulai, dan kita sudah menyaksikan lelucon yang tidak masuk akal.

[13-01-07]  Queremos compartir este post, que creemos refleja de manera correcta nuestra posición con respecto a este asunto


Publicado por  [구름]강상연  



Traducción al inglés por화니

Actualmente, estamos preparando una declaración oficial en el nombre del “El Fan Club Oficial de Rain”

Desafortunadamente, no podemos publicar y compartir esta declaración con ustedes inmediatamente con ustedes, porque como he notado en mis comentarios en  respuesta a esta notificación, hasta el Ministerio de Defensa ha estado dando anuncios confusos en lo que respecta al número de licencias en cuestión , y la prensa está emitiendo reportes sin cuidado que expresan interpretaciones arbitrarias basadas en información incorrecta, esto únicamente provocará más confusión y hasta puede debilitar nuestra credibilidad con los miembros del Cloud también.

Por lo tanto, nos restringimos de compartir esta declaración de manera apurada, con la preocupación de que será anulada si se agrega a la creciente cantidad de información no confiable.

Actualmente, parece ser que no va a haber más cambios al texto, pero desde que nueva información se pone al descubierto en lo que respecta a la 5ta División Militar y las vacaciones de los soldados que pertenecen a los Servicios de Información Pública de la Agencia de Defensa, queremos esperar hasta que los anuncios finales sean emitidos por el Comité de Disciplina del Ministerio de Defensa, el cual ha sido postergado hasta la semana que viene, antes de hacer la edición final a nuestro texto.

Les pedimos por su paciencia, consideren nuestra posición que nos obliga a tener mucho cuidado y tomar todas las precauciones antes de publicar cualquier declaración,

Les brindo este link a un artículo que fue publicado para apaciguar las frustraciones, porque creo que da una idea satisfactoria de la posición de los miembros del Cloud. Los invito a que traduzcan esto a la mayoría de lenguajes posibles, y que se disemine ampliamente por Twitter, Facebook, etc.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
  
Con respecto a cómo la prensa exageró la cantidad de licencias que se le ortorgaron a Rain agrava la cazeria de brujas del publico…. Y a la extremamente penosa controversia por la boina que faltaba…

http://blog.naver.com/syidsyid/110155888241

- ¡¡¡Un cálculo absurdo que no discrimina contando incorrectamente las visitas que se realizaron como parte de las presentaciones a las provincias y las prácticas nocturnas en preparación para la Expo como días de vacaciones!!!

Imagínense que desesperada te sentirías si se te fueras de viaje de negocios por 10 días para hacer un trabajo para tu compania, y cuando regresas te dicen, “Bueno, de todas formas, no te presentaste de la compania ¿estuviste ausente por diez días? ¿Por qué has faltado tanto?. Esta es la situación que Rain está enfrentando en lo que respecta a la controversia de sus licencias militares.

Rain viajó a las provincias porque le ordenaron dar presentaciones, él también según su deber se presentó en el escenario de la Expo así como le ordenaron. Ya que estamos hablando del servicio militar, si te dicen que tienes que arrastrar, te arrastras, así fue que Rain viajó para cumplir órdenes.

Estos viajes por presentaciones militares incluyen 19 días durante los cuales Rain realizo actuaciones para el "K-Force Special Show", y 25 días de ensayos sobre el escenario y grabaciones para varios eventos. Ahora, aún sabiendo eso, la prensa ha mezclado todos estos eventos juntos y los ha llamado vacaciones.

La lógica que sigue la prensa parece ser que ya que Rain no durmió en su base militar durante esos días, estas licencias nocturnas se deben tomar como vacaciones sin importar si el estaba afuera para hacer una presentación según  deber militar. Este es un argumento más que absurdo.

¿Cuál es el número de días que Rain recibió como vacaciones durante el transcurso de su servicio como miembro de la Agencia de Defensa para Servicios de Información Pública? En realidad, suma sólo 27 días.

Los 27 días de vacaciones se exageraron hasta llevarse a un total de 71 días, por la prensa chismosa, agregando viajes que él hizo por asuntos militares. ¡Qué cálculo  más irrazonable!

[Special News Report] "Es una distorsión el decir que Rain uso un total de 71 días de vacaciones y licencias” (Shin In Gyun) 


El representante Shin indicó que para comenzar los 44 días de licencias nocturnas que se le otorgaron a Rain por asuntos de deber militar deben ser quitados del total de 71 días que la prensa ha dado a conocer.

Esos 44 días incluyen 25 días en los cuales Rain realizó ensayos para preparar la coreografía para la presentación en la Expo de Yeosu, y 19 días  en que el dio presentaciones para el programa "K-Force Special Show"

El representante Shin explicó que “los 19 días en los cuales el Cabo Jung se presentó en el "K-Force Special Show" deben ser considerados por tareas asignadas de trabajo no como licencias nocturnas personales. Él viajaba a las ubicaciones para realizar sus deberes militares asi como es el caso de una salida para entrenamiento, por lo que esos días deberían ser quitados del total en question”

Es una percepción errónea el pensar que los soldados del entretenimiento descansan  los días en los que no tienen presentaciones. Cuando no tienen programada ninguna presentación, ellos reciben la orden de participar en entrenamiento militar sin excepción alguna. Completan el entrenamiento físico, una marcha de 30 km, como cualquier otro soldado. ¿Parece certero el pensar que el Ministerio de Defensa, teniendo un presupuesto con pocos recursos, le da a los soldados de entretenimiento espacio y tiempo libre sólo porque no hay presentaciones programadas?


-Una entrevista con 'Park Hyo Shin' from Kookbang Ilbo (Noticias diurnas de la Defensa Nacional) –

Es cierto que en varias ocaciones damos presentacioens alrededor de todo el país. Para comenzar tenemos lod 52 programas ‘K-Force Special Show’ programados cada año, y también presentaciones de apoyo en varios eventos y programas de radio.
Seguido, salimos a trabajar en eventos aún sin haber dormido mucho, tratando de tener unos minutos de sueño en el autobús en camino al lugar de la presentación, y cuando abrimos nuestros ojos, ya hemos llegado. Terminamos con la actuación y regresamos al autobús, tratando desesperadamente nuevamente de dormir un poco, y al abrir nuestros ojos hemos llegado a otro lugar y tenemos la presentación, y asi comienza todo de nuevo…

Damos seguido actuaciones afuera en las provincias, y ya que estas toman lugar tarde cerca de la noche, se hacen entre la 1 o 2 de la mañana, y al día siguiente tenemos que seguir adelante para cumplir con el programa como siempre.

No es una tarea fácil, ya que tenemos que tenemos que realizar el trabajo de apoyo así como nuestros deberes básicos, y también debemos participar sin excepción en todas los ejercicios que los soldados comunes completan, incluyendo entrenamiento mental, entenamiento militar básico, entrenamiento en clima extremadamente frío y entrenamiento intensivo. 

-¿Furor por la violación de la regulación de la boina? Pensemos en esto un momento, honestamente, ¿nunca han visto sus propios novios, hermanos, o amigos no utilizar la boina militar mientras están de licencia?

¿Y si ahora nos volvemos todos “paparazzi de sombreros” y cada vez que veamos un soldado en la calle, sacamos nuestra cámara de fotos y capturamos la escena para enseñar si estaban o no usando la boina militar? Aunque no haya ninguna recompensa, ya que parece que es nuestro deber cívico sagrado exponer estos soldados sin boina que están tomando a la ligera la disciplina del ejercito de nuestra República y hacerlos objeto de el furor de nuestro criticismo, ¿no deberíamos en esforzarnos en cumplir nuestro deber?

-Noticias Yeon-Hap Entrevista con 'Im Tae Hoon', Director del Centro de Derechos Humanos del Servicio Militar -

Para comenzar, estoy en contra de la decisión de derivar el asunto a un comité de disciplina. La razón de esto es porque Rain no estaba usando su boina cuando estaba de licencia. Si esta violación es punible, entonces para ser consistentes todos los soldados que caminan con las manos en sus bolsillos también deberían ser disciplinados. Este tipo de pena está mal. Con respecto a la critica porque Rain tuvo reuniones personales mientras estaba de licencia encargandose de asuntos oficiales de trabajo: Es posible que un solado pueda ir a una tienda a comprar algo, por ejemplo, o ocuparse de algún asunto personal por un tiempo corto mientras está afuera. También, si un soldado esta en su hogar en Seoul, también se considera posible que visiten a un amigo por un rato, creo que es extremadamente duro imponer estas regulaciones con absoluta severidad (solamente en el caso de Rain)


¿Qué podemos hacer ahora?

Parece ser que de ahora en adelante a los soldados coreanos se les va a informar que las salidad que hagan para realizar su trabajo militar también se van a contar como días de vacaciones, que van a estar en la mira de los “paparazzi de sombreros” , y se los puede exponer a la critica si están sin su boina o con las manos en sus bolsillos, y aunque a lo mejor estén al frente de sus casas, no deben nunca, pero nunca reunirse con un amigo, sus padres o novias, cuando están afuera de la base y que deben regresar al segundo después de que terminen su trabajo, y si deciden pedirle a sus padres que los lleven a sus cuarteles en su auto, se los va a derivar al comité de disciplina. ¿Cómo es esto algo no absurdo? El 2013 ha apenas empezado y ya somos testigos de una gran farsa.

The Cloud'dan Yaşanan Olaylarla İlgili Bildiri /// 07 Ocak 2012

Şu anda, mevcut durum nedeniyle medyayı protesto etmek için “Rain Fan Club Cloud” adına resmi bir açıklama hazırlıyoruz.
Maalesef, daha önce de birkaç kez cevaplarımda belirttiğim gibi, Savunma Bakanlığı bile izin günleri sayısıyla ilgili çelişkili duyurular yaptığı için bu durumla ilgili sizinle hemen bir bildiri metni paylaşamadık. Ve bu koşullar altında basın, belirsiz bilgilere dayalı yapılan keyfi yorumlarla çalkalanıyor, eğer bu eksik bilgilerle kayıtsızca cevap verirsek bu karışıklığı arttıracaktır ve Cloud üyelerinin güvenirliğini azaltacaktır.

Şimdiye kadar artan güvenilmez haberler açığa çıkarılacak, bu yüzden, alelacele bir bildiri yayınlamaktan kaçınmaktayız. . Metnimizde son düzenlemeleri yapmadan önce, gelecek haftaya ertelenen, Savunma Bakanlığı’nın disiplin komitesinden son açıklama yapılana kadar beklemek isterdik ama 5. Tümen ile ve DEMA askerlerinin izinleri ile ilgili bilgiler gözler önüne serilmiş olmasına rağmen haber metinlerinde herhangi bir değişiklik görülmedi.

Herhangi bir açıklama yapmadan önce çok tedbirli davranmak ve çok dikkatli olmak zorunda bırakan bir durumda olduğumuzu dikkate alarak sabretmenizi istiyoruz. Cloud üyelerini tatmin edeceğini düşündüğüm için hayal kırıklıkları içinde bugün bu metin bağlantısını hazırladım. 

Mümkünse Tvvitter, Facebook vs. aracılığıyla farklı dillere çevirmek için sizi cesaretlendirmek istiyorum.

Medyanın Rain’e verilen izinleri abartıp halkı kışkırtması… ve şapka üzerinden yapılan aşırı küçültücü tartışma hakkında…

- Expo’daki gece çalışmaları gerektiren performans hazırlıkları için çevre illerdeki gerekli ziyaretlerin izin olarak sayıldığı gelişi güzel hazırlanmış gülünç bir hesaplama!!!

Şirketiniz adına çalışmak için on günlüğüne iş gezisine gidip döndüğünüzde, “Şirket için gitmiş olmana rağmen on gündür işten kaytarıyorsun, neden bu kadar zamandır yoktun?” denmesinin sizi ne kadar çileden çıkaracağını hayal edin. Bu Rain’in şu an karşı karşıya kaldığı askeri izin tartışmalarıyla aynı durumdur.

Rain konser vermesi emredildiği için dışarı çıktı ve ayrıca emredildiği gibi görev aşkıyla Expo sahnesinde yer aldı. Söz konusu ordu olunca, size sürünmeniz söyleniyorsa sürünürsünüz, bu yüzden de Rain emirlere itaatle hareket etti.

Bu tür geziler, Rain’in “K-Force Special Show” performansında geçirdiği 19 günü ve sahne provaları ile çeşitli etkinlikler için kayıtlar yaptığı 25 günü de içermektedir. Şimdi, nasıl oluyorsa basın bütün bu etkinlikleri bir tutuyor ve izinden sayıyor.

Medyanın, görevlerini gerçekleştirmek için dışarıda oluşuna bakılmaksızın bu günlerin izin günü saymasındaki mantık, Rain’in bugünlerde kendi askeri üssünde uyumadığından doğuyor gibi görünüyor.

Görev yaptığı DEMA’dan asıl izin olarak aldığı gün sayısı aslında nedir? Gerçekte sadece 27 gün.
Dedikodu tacirleri tarafından 27 günlük izinlerine askeri görev gezileri de eklenerek toplamda 71 gün olarak şişirildi. Bu gerçekten de mantıksız bir hesaplama!

[Special News Report] “ Rain’in toplamda 71 gün izin kullandığını iddia etmek saptırmadır.” (Shin In Gyun)

Temsilci Shin, her şeyden önce Rain’e askeri görevler için verilmiş olan 44 günlük gecelik izinlerin, medya tarafından tartışılan toplam 71 günden “çıkarılması” gerektiğine dikkat çekti. 

Bu 44 gün, Rain’in Yeosu Expo için koreografi hazırlık çalışmalarını yaptığı 25 gün ve askeriyenin “K-Force Special Show” programı için konser verdiği 19 günden oluşmaktadır.

Yetkili Shin, “ Çavuş Jung’ın ‘K-Force Special Show’ da konser verdiği 19 günün kişisel gecelik izin değil de iş vazifesi olarak sayılması gerekir. Görevini yerine getirmek için gitti, bu yüzden bu günler söz konusu olan toplamdan çıkarılmalıdır” diye konuştu.
Eğlence askerlerinin konser vermedikleri günlerde ense yapıp dinlendiklerini düşünmek yanılgıdır. Konser programları olmadığında askeri eğitimlerin haricinde tutulma durumları yoktur. Fiziksel eğitim ya da 30 km’lik yürüyüş eğitimlerini diğer askerler gibi tamamlarlar. Bütçe sıkıntısı çeken Savunma Bakanlığı’nın, sırf konser programları yok diye eğlence askerlerine özel oda ve kurul vereceği mantıklı geliyor mu?

-Kookbang Ilbo’dan ‘Park Hyo Shin’ ile bir röportaj (National Defense Daily News)-

Doğrusu memleketin her yerinde konser verdiğimiz birçok gün olurdu. Öncelikle, her yıl 52 günlük ‘K-Force Special Show’ programları düzenlenirdi ve ayrıca çeşitli etkinlikler ve radyo programları için destek çalışmaları da vardı. Sık sık yeterince uyumadan, performans mekânına giderken otobüste birkaç dakika uyuma fırsatı yakalamaya çalışarak, etkinliklere giderdik. Gözümüzü açtığımızda mekâna çoktan varmış olurduk. Performansı bitirip otobüse döndüğümüzde yine umutsuzca biraz uyumaya çalışırdık ve gözümüzü açtığımızda çoktan başka bir performans mekânına varmış olurduk, bu böyle devam ederdi…
Çoğunlukla şehir dışında konser verirdik ve konserler akşam geç saatte bittiğinde kaldığımız yere geri dönmemiz sabah 1 ya da 2 yi bulurdu ve ertesi gün tabi ki tam programı gerektiği gibi takip etmemiz beklenirdi.

Diğer askerlerin tamamladığı, ruhsal eğitim, temel askeri eğitim ve aşırı soğuk hava eğitimini içeren bütün talimlerden muaf tutulmadan, temel görevlerimizin yanında ek olarak çeşitli destek çalışmaları yapmamızın da beklenmesi, hiç kolay bir iş değil.

-Şapka yönetmelik ihlali için tepki aşırı mı? Dürüstçe düşünelim… Kendi sevgilinizi, kardeşinizi ya da arkadaşınızı askeriye dışında şapkasız hiç görmediniz mi?

Sokakta bir asker ile karşılaştığımızda, askeri şapkayı giyip giymediğini yakalamak için kameramızla fotoğrafını çekivererek “şapka paparazisi” olmaya ne dersiniz? Herhangi bir ödül olmamasına rağmen, ordumuzun disiplinini sarsan bu şapkasız askerleri açığa çıkarmak ve eleştiri gazabımıza maruz bırakmak kutsal vatandaşlık görevimiz gibi görünüyor biz de görevimizi tamamıyla yerine getiriyor muyuz?

- ‘Im Tae Hoon’ ile Yeon-Hap News Röportajı, Askeri İnsan Hakları Merkezi Yöneticisi-

Başlangıç olarak, disiplin komitesi kararından bahsetmeye karşıyım. Bunun nedeni Rain’in dışarıda şapka takmamış olmasıdır. Eğer bu ihlal cezalandırılırsa, tutarlı olunması için elleri ceplerinde yürüyen bütün askerlerin de cezalandırılması gerekir. Bu tip cezalar yanlıştır.

Rain’in resmi görevdeyken özel bir görüşme yaptığı eleştirilerine gelince:
Mesela bir askerin markete gitmesi ya da bu zamanlarda biraz kişisel işlerini yapması olasıdır.. Ayrıca, eğer bir askerin evi Seul’deyse alışılagelmiş şekilde bir arkadaşıyla karşılaşması mümkündür. Bence bu tür kuralları böyle nihayetsiz sıkılıklarla donatmak aşırı derecede sert (sadece Rain’in durumunda)

Ne yapalım şimdi?

Bundan böyle Kore askerlerinin askeri iş için yaptıkları bütün dış ziyaretler izinden sayılacak gibi görünüyor. Askerler şapkasız ya da elleri ceplerinde yakalanmak için şapka paparazilerinin hedefi olacaklar hatta evleri caddenin karşısındaysa üss dışındayken bir arkadaşlarıyla, anne-babalarıyla ya da kız arkadaşlarıyla asla ve asla karşılaşmamalılar ve işlerini tamamlar tamamlamaz geri dönmek zorundalar ayrıca eğer kışlaya geri dönerken ailelerinin arabalarına binerlerse askeriyenin disiplin komitesine gönderilecekler.

Saçma değil mi? 2013 yeni başladı ve şimdiden gerçek bir saçmalığa tanıklık ediyoruz.
