Rain, whose real name is Jung Ji Hoon, has officially announced his upcoming marriage to top Kdrama actress, Kim Tae Hee. Rain expressed his appreciation for Tae Hee in an endearing handwritten letter to his fans on Tuesday. However, due to their country’s economic and political woes, Rain and Tae Hee have decided to make the wedding a low-key event. It was reported earlier today that Rain will marry Kim Tae Hee inside of a Catholic church in Seoul. The Kpop idol used his Instagram account to post the letter about his upcoming nuptials to Kim Tae Hee.
The Hallyu star began the letter by referencing the cold winter weather and wished everyone good health. Hoon reminisced on his 16-year old career in the entertainment industry. Rain acknowledged his fans who have embarked on his musical journey. He even took note of long-time fans who have grown into beautiful women and have become respectable mothers with their own children.

“All of a sudden, it’s been 16 whole years since I debuted. My fans who have been with me all this time, you’ve also grown into beautiful women, or even into respectable mothers to your own children… I also hope to become a respectable husband and man, as the head of a new family. She has been protecting me by my side indefinitely, whether I was happy or facing difficulties, and has moved me through many things, all this time.”
“Now that our faith and love have grown, [we’ve] decided to form a bond.”
“The wedding and the time will be quiet and pious, since it is a time of unrest and economic difficulty for the country. As a result, I ask that you understand that we cannot tell you [about the ceremony].”
“I am very thankful for your love I received over the past 16 years. From here on, I will do my best to show you a good side of me as a great singer and actor, with more responsibility and humility…”
Rain ended the letter with a nod to his new track titled, “The Best Gift.” Rain released the track on January 15, after his three-year hiatus. According to Hello Kpop, the song is about a man’s engagement to his love.
