“6-foot” Rain isn’t so tall after all?

After getting entangled with massive stocks dispute a couple weeks ago, it seems like Rain has another controversy in his hands.

We all know Rain is the “giant” in K-pop industry with his tall height, reportedly to be around 185 cm (6′1″). No one seems to have doubted this seemingly-obvious fact, until now.

Apparently, this picture was taken in Japan, where Rain and his co-star Lee Jung Jin stayed momentarily to film their upcoming drama, Fugitive. As seen in the picture above, it’s evident how Rain, man on the right, is much shorter than Lee Jung Jin. But how is this possible when Lee Jung Jin is only 183 cm (6′0″)?

Netizens have split on their view toward this mysterious picture. Some are harshly criticizing Rain for “faking” his publicly-known height, whereas others are claiming that poor angle of the camera had resulted in such optical illusion.

What do you think?
