Cloud USA is an unofficial fansite for Rain (Jung Ji-Hoon) located in the United States.  Please note that we are NOT officially affiliated with Rainy Entertainment or Rain.  However, we do strongly support Rain and all of his activities as best we can.
 
Please also note the following:
  • Cloud USA is FREE for everyone to enjoy.  There are NO membership fees.
  • You DO NOT have to join anything at all on Cloud USA to enjoy our vast fansite.  Every area of our site is completely free and open to the public.
There are two things you can do, however, at Cloud USA, to ensure you are added to our official membership lists (and to be able to enter special contests or participate in special projects we may have from time to time, most of which are only open to subscribers/members.) Again, both of these things are FREE
  1. You can go to our Media Blog and "subscribe."   The "subscribe" feature can be found in the sidebar, on the right side of the page.  Scroll down, and it's right above the "search" feature.  You do not have to be a subscriber of our blog to read or comment, but if you do subscribe, then you will receive notification, via e-mail, whenever we update the blog or post a new article. It is a handy feature.
  2. You can go to our Fan Forum and sign up as a "member."  The only reason you need to sign up to be a member on our forum is for "posting" permission. If you just want to chat, read the posts, and don't want to contribute any comments or add any topics (or enter contests), then you don't even have to become a member of the forum.
We hope you enjoy Cloud USA.  It is truly a labor of love.  If you have any comments or suggestions for us, please send us an e-mail at letitrain@cloudusa.org, or leave us a comment on our Contact Us page.
ABOUT CLOUD USA
Rain's fans are called "Clouds."  This name came from the idea that wherever "Clouds" gather, "Rain" soon follows.
 
The Cloud is Rain's OFFICIAL FAN CLUB.  The Cloud is located in Seoul, Korea.  The Cloud's official fansite, which is also called The Cloud, can be found HERE.
 
Most of The Cloud's fansite is written in Hangul, but there is a message board for English speakers, called "English Talk," where important Rain news and fan club announcements are translated into English by some of Rain's kind fans. (Please thank them often.)  Some of the members of The Cloud asked us to post sign-up instructions for The Cloud fansite on Cloud USA, so that more people might begin to post messages to Rain in ENGLISH on their "Support Board for Rain" and on the "English Talk" board.
 
They did this because they really wanted Rain to receive MORE support from Rain's English-speaking fans, who do not yet have a huge presence on The Cloud's fansite.  Instructions on how to sign up for The Cloud's fansite can be found on our Media Blog HERE.
 
Until you become an official, paid-up member of The Cloud fan club, some of the areas on The Cloud's fansite will remain inaccessible to you. However, most of the discussion boards, including "English Talk," will be accessible, as long as you are registered for the website. Regardless of whether or not you want to sign up as an official member of The Cloud, please sign up for The Cloud's fansite, so that you will be able to post supportive messages for Rain and other fans as often as you can.  Registering for access to The Cloud's fansite is FREE and The Cloud fan club and Rain would greatly appreciate your active participation and support.
 About The Cloud (Rain's Official Fan Club) & The Cloud's Fansite
The Cloud is Rain's OFFICIAL FAN CLUB.  The Cloud is located in Seoul, Korea.
 
The first round of The Cloud's membership drive, for their 8th Cloud membership term, ended on March 20, 2011.  However, to make sure everyone who wanted to join got the chance, a second and final round was initiated.  The application period for the second Round of the 8th Cloud membership drive occurred from 5/4/11 through 5/28/11.
 
The membership drive is now closed.  However, you can still follow Rain's news activities by registering as a member of The Cloud's fansite (see above).  Cloud USA will try to keep you informed as well.
 
Please note that official membership in The Cloud Fan Club, is NOT FREE. The membership fee for the 8th Cloud membership term was $55 USD.  The fan club membership term usually lasts about one year. We say usually, because The Cloud did not recruit new members in 2010, and so the "7th Cloud" term actually lasted for 2 years.  As soon as news of the next membership drive is announced, Cloud USA will let you know.
 
Wishing you many Rainy days,
 
Terri :-} and Stephe ^@@^
