[HQ 122308] Rain Bi  비 Six to Five Concert-Rainism!

Wildly popular Korean pop singer Rain has launched his own fashion line, called Six to Five.  He introduced the collection with a fashion show in Ilsan, which was attended by celebrities and fans alike.

```Six to Five' means that we are aiming to reach the sixth sense from our original five senses. I also wanted to use numbers to make it easier to find and comfortable to approach,'' he said.

Six to Five will start business in Korea and then expand elsewhere in Asia and then Europe and the United States.

``I think it's a bit unreasonable to call myself a designer. I never learned the trade professionally, but I did try to analyze the clothes I enjoy wearing and feel comfortable in. I volunteered as a designer, thinking the public may understand my views,'' he said.

Personally I don't think Rain's "Six to Five" explanation makes much sense - trying to reach the sixth sense by using our other five senses? - and the alternative theory that it represents his birthday, June 25 (06/25), seems to be much simpler and more likely.

Rain's line will feature clothing for both men and women, with a range of items including leather boots, denim pieces, casual tops and jackets with a "hint" of edginess.  Accessories will also be included in the line, which will be available for purchase by February.

According to his definition, shouldn't it be called "five to six" or "six from five" instead? Either way, I think the fans will flock to the stores to buy his latest collection.

His birthday is June 25th or 6/25. That's were he got it from.
