Korean entertainer Rain will be attending his first fan meeting since his military discharge on July 10, Rain’s agency Cube Entertainment announced Friday.

According to the agency, the fan meeting was organized by the star’s fan club, which invited him to attend the event in his honor to be held on Aug. 3 at Kyung Hee University. 

Rain is also scheduled to join the all-star line-up of the upcoming “Sonic Bang” music festival in Bangkok, Thailand. The festival is Thailand’s biggest concert event and will feature more than 30 international and local artists on six stages with headline acts such as Pet Shop Boys, Jason Mraz, Pitbull, Placebo, Owl City and many others. Rain is slated to represent the K-pop scene along with the hip-hop trio of Epik High, who have also been invited to perform at this year’s festival. The 2013 Sonic Bang will be held on Aug. 24 at the Impact Muang Thong Thani.

“Joining this festival was a previously planned commitment,” stated a Cube Entertainment representative. “In terms of Rain’s comeback plans for his singing and acting career, nothing has been decided yet.”

However, the agency claimed that there was a proposal for the star to sign on with hip-hop star Jay-Z’s record label “Roc Nation,” hinting that Rain might be focusing on trying to infiltrate the U.S. music market.
