Hong Kong movie stars visit Rain's concert

Hong Kong's most famed movies stars including Jackie Chan and Chow Yun Fat appeared at Korean singer Rain's concert held over the weekend, according to a press release from Rain's agency.

Chow Yun Fat attended the first day of Rain's two-day concert titled "Legend of Rainism" held in Hong Kong on November 28 and 29, while Chan made a surprise visit on the second day, J.Tune Entertainment said.

Chan congratulated Rain on his concert while handing him flowers although he had to leave immediately to catch a flight. "This was something that Rain didn't know about beforehand," one of the representatives J.Tune was quoted as saying.

The official added that Chan and Rain are good friends and Rain usually sends him an invitation, but Rain was not expecting Chan to turn up because Chan was on a tight schedule.

Korean singer Rain debuted in 2002 and since has gained fame in Asia. Aside from singing, he also has starred in several Korean TV series and movies and recently starred in Hollywood movie "Ninja Assassin" which opened in theaters last week.
