Runaway, the much-anticipated action series shot in the Philippines, will finally have its premiere in the country.

The series stars Rain who made his Hollywood debut in the 2008 movie Speed Racer. The actor dubbed as the Ultimate Asian Superstar is a bonafide triple threat, having started as a backup dancer in South Korea. His career got a much-deserved boost with a debut album in 2002 and a lead role in popular series Full House in 2004. The said show raked in praise for the actor across Asia and the United States.

Rain visited the Philippines in 2010 to shoot some scenes in Manila and Cebu. The new series also features sequences shot in Japan, Macau and Hong Kong — making Runaway one of the most ambitious Korean series.

Runaway combines action, drama, suspense and comedy.

Runaway premieres on June 11 at 9:30pm on TV5.

Even though Rain is in the military, his celeb spirit is alive and well!
