'Rain' Due to Appear in Hawaiian Court in March

Pop star Rain is scheduled to appear in a Hawaii court for a US$40 million lawsuit against the entertainer for a week from March 10. Rain and his ex-agency JYP Entertainment were sued by Honolulu promoter Click Entertainment for cancelling their planned concert there in June 2007. If Rain fails to show up, he may be subject to an arrest warrant.

Click Entertainment also then filed a separate complaint in Korea against the singer, concert organizer Star M Entertainment, and JYP Entertainment, arguing, "They are incapable of holding the concert, or intended to take money from us from the beginning".

However, the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office dropped the charge, saying "They do not appear to have deceived the American promoter with the intention of taking its money".
