Lately it seems I can’t escape the buzz around the Korean popstar Rain.  He has a concert coming up here, so there are huge posters of him, shirtless, all over Shanghai.  He has a new movie that’s just come out, I’M A CYBORG, BUT THAT’S OK, that I see whenever I pass an illegal DVD stall.  To my astonishment, even Stephen Colbert knows who he is — I guess he did a parody of one of Rain’s videos on his show!  So when I saw this headline on MSN,

Rain aids battle against N.J. blaze

I thought, “What I guy!  I didn’t even know he was in the US, but there he is, fighting fires!”  Then I realized they just meant they rain that falls from the sky!
