During Rain&#8217;s world tour, Ho traveled with Rain and participated in the concerts that took place in ten different countries. It is known that much of Rain&#8217;s help and input went into Ho&#8217;s debut album.<\/p>\n<p><strong>There was also the help of Park Jin Young (JYP). <\/strong>Ho difficultly auditioned many times and among those was a JYP audition, from which he was rejected. But apparently, JYP kept his eye on Ho due to his budding skills and he generously provided advice and encouragement to Ho&#8217;s debut album. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Representatives of Ho say, &#8220;There will be an empty spot when Rain goes into the military and Ho will be the one to fill that spot.<\/strong> This is all due to Rain, JYP and other&#8217;s musical exchanges and friendships.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p><strong>Ho&#8217;s first solo album &#8220;1st Single &#8216;This is Ho'&#8221; has been produced at the Starling Records in America and the choreography and music and lyric composition all have a solid, musical base.<\/strong> His title song, &#8220;Crazy Tonight&#8221; has a strong beat and a soft rhythm, which has gathered good reviews so far. <\/p>\n<p><strong>What do you think? Can he replace Rain? We think not!<\/strong><br \/>\n<object width=\"500\" height=\"360\"><param name=\"movie\"
