On his World 2007 tour, his scheduled concerts in Shanghai, Toronto, San Francisco, and Hawaii were canceled, followed by the last concert in Los Angeles. The last event at the Staples Center was canceled only two hours prior to opening: Rain's producer blamed the situation on financial problems of the local promoter, while the local promoter blamed Wellmade STAR M calling them too "incompetent to handle the situation".[1]
On March 19, 2009, a federal jury in Honolulu found that Rain, his former management agency JYP Entertainment, and two other promotion companies were guilty of breaching a contract and defrauding Honolulu promoter Click Entertainment for $2 million (originally just over $1 million) after the Hawaii concert was canceled and the promoters were not refunded the $500,000 licensing fee.[2] Rain and JYP were ordered to pay $2.4 million each in punitive damages, $1 million for damages related to the fraud, and $2.3 million for breach of contract.[3]
A separate lawsuit filed by promoters Wellmade STAR M was dismissed by a South Korean court on January 28, 2010. Judge Bae Kwang-Kuk ruled in favor of Rain and blamed the plaintiff for poor preparations surrounding the canceled U.S. tour.[4]
In April 2010, Rain and other J. Tune Creative shareholders were accused of embezzling money from the company by a fabric manufacturing company. The company claimed they suffered financial losses. Rain and the shareholders were acquitted of the charges in December of that year.[5] He was reinvestigated in September 2011 after a discrepancy was found, but was later acquitted again in June 2013.[6][7]

지난 2011년 11월과 12월 세 차례 공무상 외출을 나갔다가 복귀하는 길에, 배우 김태희와 사적인 만남을 가졌다.
비는 외출 당시 군인 신분임에도, 착모를 하지 않아 복장 규정을 위반했고, 공연 준비 등 군 임무를 위한 것이 아닌, 사적인 데이트를 위해 외박을 사용하면서 연예병사 특혜 논란이 일었다. 여기에 지난 5월에는 1박에 60만원대 호텔 스위트룸에 머무른 사실이 확인되었으며, 음주와 휴대폰 사용사실까지 확인되면서 국민들의 공분을 샀다.
논란이 확산되자 국방부는 7일간의 근신 처분을 내렸다.[1]
- 키 누락
10년 인터넷 게시판에 비와 이정진이 마주 보고 서있는 사진이 공개되었는데, "이정진이 비보다 커 보이며, 비 실제 키 인증" 논란이 시작되었다. 공식 소개에는 비는 185cm, 이정진은 183cm로 기재되어있다. 이에 대중들은 "비 프로필이 잘못됐다."는 주장이 제기되었다. "사진은 각도에 따라 다르다"라는 옹호론도 등장하였다. 비는 10년 3월 15일, "라인업"에 출연하여, 비와 이윤석은 185cm로 기재되어있지만, 이윤석이 훨씬 더 컸다. 그리고 10년 8월 4일, 비가 키 논란에 대하여 해명하며 이정진과 나란히 팔짱을 낀 사진이 인터넷을 통하여 공개됐다. 옹호여론도 존재한다.[2][3]
