People Magazine Apparently Saw Korean Pop Star Rain On "Colbert" The Same Day They Saw "Speed Racer"...

Posted by Bryan Christian


... and were all like "How many hot Korean-ish dudes can there be with English speaking parts, really?" Well, People, there's at least 5 that we know of: Harold, the guy from Lost, the puppet Kim-Jong Il from Team America, and the two dudes -- not one! -- that you're picturing up top, one of whom is Korean-American actor Karl Yune, who appeared in Speed Racer, and one of whom is Kpop sensation Rain, who we hope is finally finished with the bloody and homoerotic beef that nearly destroyed both him and Stephen Colbert. (Click through for the video blow-by-blow of that epic throwdown.)

IMDB says Karl was also in Speed Racer playing "Taejo Body Guard".

He's yummy.
