The power couple of South Korean entertainment industry, Rain and Kim Tae Hee, are in news again. They are known as the perfect couple who give relationship goals. Currently, fans are going crazy over the couple's recent commercial shoot, where Rain was seen calling Kim Tae Hee 'Noona'.
In Korean language, the word Noona literally means elder sister. But in usage, it is a reference to a woman [especially lover] who is elder to the man. In this case, Kim Tae Hee is two years elder to Rain and it is the first time Rain was caught on camera calling his wife noona.
Perfect Chemistry
The incident was captured during the shooting of the commercial of luxury massage chair brand 'Bodyfriend'. Rain and Kim Tae Hee played the role of perfect couple to promote the brand. A video of making of the commercial was released recently. Though Rain and Kim Tae Hee have appeared in videos and shows together earlier too, Rain was always seen referring to his wife as Kim tae Hee-sshi.
In the making video, Rain and Kim Tae Hee are seen demonstrating a warm and cozy atmosphere. While monitoring one of the scenes, director is heard telling the couple, "[You] look like such a cute family." Kim Tae Hee's sudden reaction to this was, "You look so fake," looking at Rain.
Embarrassed by this, Rain is seen telling Kim Tae Hee "Noona, how can you say that? Do you honestly mean to say that I'm not like that at home in real life?" Their conversation continues and realizing the situation, Kim Tae Hee says "There are cameras around..." and bursts out laughing. Rain also takes this sportively and laughs it out.
In rest of the video, the couple show an amazing chemistry and are seen cooking, eating and resting together comfortably for the shoot. Watch the video here:
