Rain attends court for his defamation lawsuit against a previous tenant in his building


Designer Mr. Park attended a trial as a witness on May 30 after being sued by Rain and prosecuted for defamation two days before.  The two had butted heads many times before as Mr. Park was a previous tenant in a building owned by Rain, so this was not their first lawsuit, rather one of many.

It all started when Mr. Park stopped paying his rent in 2010 and consequently faced a lawsuit from Rain.  In the end, the court decided against Mr. Park, who had claimed that his artwork got ruined by the rain that came through the damaged building, so the designer proceeded to sue Rain on charges of fraud.  Finally, Rain sued him for defamation after he was unable to endure the continuous personal attacks.  




Rain, who was also present at court on this day, said, "I received continuous pain from severe defamation . . . I had the intention to forgive him, but he showed no indication of any self-reflection and is damaging my image even now.  I decided I could no longer condone this."

The sentence due date for Mr. Park will be on July 4.

[Exclusive] JpopAsia Interviews Silver Ash

Silver Ash has always marched to the beat of their own drum. As band after band have recently announced their disbandment, Silver Ash bucked this trend, announcing instead that they would be rising from the ashes, coming together once again after an 8 year hiatus to reform the band. The band originally formed in 2000 in Beijing, China, becoming the country's first visual rock band in the style of Japan's visual kei movement. They quickly gained popularity and found success, carving out their own place in a music industry dominated by ballads. Despite their initial success, things started going south for a number of reasons, including government censorship and the SARS epidemic. These difficulties eventually led the band to go on an indefinite hiatus in 2005. In 2013, Silver Ash surprised many by announcing their long-awaited comeback.
