Singer and actor Rain recently shared heartfelt words about JYP's Park Jin Young. On September 19, Rain spoke about his mentor in a new video on his YouTube channel.

Rain started by saying, "When I'm on stage, I feel like I’m in a different state of mind. Honestly, I can't remember much afterward, almost like I have amnesia."

He added, "A performer needs to know how to have fun. Sticking too rigidly to things can make you look inexperienced."

Rain also reminisced about his time with Park Jin Young, sharing a special memory. He said, "Back when Jin Young hyung was promoting 'I Have a Woman,' I was the only one allowed to ride with him in his van. It wasn’t about special treatment; I just wanted to travel separately with him."

He continued, "Even while traveling, hyung used to train me. He’d make me sing, and if I made a mistake, he’d scold me harshly. I was so upset I would cry silently by the window. But I worked harder, practicing late into the night to impress him."

Rain explained his dedication, saying, "For me, practice means doing it perfectly. I had to get it right three times in a row before I could sleep. Mistakes in practice lead to mistakes on stage. It’s all about muscle memory—your body remembers."

In closing, Rain expressed his deep appreciation for Park Jin Young, saying, "Jin Young hyung always pushed me to my limits. Even now, I’m incredibly grateful and consider him a mentor for life."

Actor Lee Min Ho recently shared an unforgettable and embarrassing moment from his early career, revealing how he became a “falling star” at his first Baeksang Arts Awards.

On the December 25th episode of You Quiz on the Block (Episode 274), Lee Min Ho made a guest appearance and reflected on his rise to fame.

The actor, known for his iconic role as Goo Jun Pyo in Boys Over Flowers, won the Best New Actor award at the Baeksang Arts Awards, but it wasn’t just his victory that grabbed attention.

Lee Min Ho recalled, "I was attending the Baeksang for the first time, and I was so excited. Since I wasn’t going as Goo Jun Pyo, but as Lee Min Ho, I styled my hair in a perm and was ready to go." However, things took an unexpected turn when he tripped and fell on the red carpet.

He sighed, recalling, "That day, I fell. I fell and created so many memes. Even now, I look back and think, 'How did I walk that quickly on the red carpet?'"

Laughing at his own clumsiness, he admitted, "I was moving at the speed of light, no composure, no focus. Honestly, more than the joy of winning the award, that day was chaotic and so embarrassing for me."

Though his win was a highlight, Lee Min Ho humorously shared that the incident of tripping overshadowed the excitement of his achievement.

It’s safe to say that while the fall became a funny meme, it also became a lesson in humility for the actor, and a moment that fans still remember to this day.
