Use this to Chat with these young stars!!!!!!!

Don't really know much about this group and I have not seen much of them.  Seems like a new very very young adorable group group through AVEX. They started there short career in 1990 Since they are extremly young I am suprised to see how amazing and tallented they are. Another thing about this group is that there is a young boy in the group.  Interesting idea but it works well.  Better to have a real boy in the group than to have a girl play as a boy like allot of jpop groups do.  Really nice combination.  They are soooo kawaii it is only a matter of time to see if they can continue to be successful.  If you check back you can actually talk to them but I have not seen any shows scheduled.  It looks like H!P have upcoming competition with AVEX expanding there horizons...  Anyways if you want to know more feel free to check out there site.  I think they have a new single coming out soon.

Rain (also known as Bi (비) in Korea or Pi (ピ) in Japan) is a singer, actor and model from South Korea.
He is known for his dancing skills and was a back dancer for Park Ji Yoon before his debut. He was also recently named one of the 100 most influential people in the world by TIME Magazine. Also, he was found in People magazine's top 100 most beautiful people as well as voted the number one most influential person on TIME's internet poll. Many believed that the singer was voted by over-zealous fans that voted others down, but this could not be proven.

Rain spent most of his childhood living with his parents and younger sister, Jeong Hanna, near Yonsei University. Despite being an introverted and shy child, he discovered he had a passion for dance when he performed in a talent show for Sungmoon Junior High School. Rain initially had a difficult time balancing dance and academics and received low grades during the beginning of junior high because of his frequent dance practices. He decided to follow his passion and attended Anyang High School of Arts in Anyang, Gyeonggi, where he received his first formal instruction in acting and was able to continue dancing as well. Rain again found he could not focus on both dance and his studies in acting; he was truant on several occasions.

Rain lost his mother as she struggled with diabetes and died in 2000. Within that same year, Rain was recruited as a trainee for JYP Entertainment, led by recording artist and producer Park Jin-Young. In a CNN interview and also in a Discovery Channel documentary called Discovering Hip Korea, however, he recalled being repeatedly rejected because of his looks: "In fact, I was told after one audition that my singing and dancing was great but I did not make it because I did not have double eyelids." During the early years of training, Rain was a backup dancer.
