Guest alert: Carl Hiaasen AND Rain to be on Monday’s ‘Colbert Report’
Spoiler alert: Photos from the Stephen Colbert-Rain showdown

According to Stephen Colbert news/fansite No Fact Zone, Korean pop star Rain has been confirmed to be appearing as a guest on the May 5, 2008 episode of “The Colbert Report.” The rumor that he would be a guest last Monday turns out to be semi-true- he was there that Monday to pretape his segment, and the pictures of that are in the second link. It’s really exciting to see Asian pop music being promoted in a positive way, especially on such a popular show. Maybe Rain will be the first Asian artist to become successful in the States?
