On April 24, 2002, 17-year-old Korean singer Rain was introduced to the world with his first solo album titled “Bad Guy.”

Today, Rain is thanking his fans from all over the world for making his dreams come true by posting a series of throwback videos that catapulted his success into the Korean superstar that he is today.

On Instagram, he penned, “Thanks to all my fans who have supported me throughout the years.

“Today marks the 19th year [Korean age] since I first released my debut album. I still vividly remember leaving the small practice room to perform for the first time on April 24th, 2002.

“On this special day, I want to share a hidden gem I found of me right before this performance.”

덕분에...비 라는 이름으로 데뷔 햇수 19년차가 되었습니다 우리 함께 했던 그 첫방송이 기억납니다 2002년 4월24일~ 작은 연습실에서 나와 “비”라는 이름을 달고 과연 많은 분들께 이름을 알릴 수 있을까 이것이 첫방이자 마지막이 되진 않을까 밤잠을 설치고 첫 무대를 했습니다...그 기억 어렵게 구했습니다 오늘은 함께 공유하고 싶네요^^ 첫 1기 구름 팬클럽부터 지금까지 우리 구름 식구들 넘 감사하고 사랑합니다. Thanks to all my fans who have supported me throughout the years, today marks 19 years since I first released my debut album. I still vividly remember leaving the small practice room to perform for the first time on April 24th 2002. On this special day, I want to share a hidden gem I found of me right before this performance. A big thanks to my cloud family who have been with me since day one. I love you all!

Prior to the anniversary celebration, Rain surprised his fans when he joined social media platform TikTok together with the message “Bounce, shake, twerk, dip. This is how you do the drip.”

And although he is already a father of two after marrying actress Kim Tae Hee in 2017, Rain showed his fans that he still has the dance moves they remember him for.
