Rain will hit the stage in Hong Kong Saturday for his concert tour called "The Squall."

Korea Joongang Daily reported Friday that the Hong Kong concert will be the seventh show in his concert tour.

"Fans in Hong Kong have been waiting for his concert for a long time," Rain company said. "Concert tickets are all sold out."

The 33-year-old entertainer staged the first show in Changsha, China after he started the concert tour in November. The show was later followed by five performances held in different key cities in China including Gwangzhou, Shanghai and Shenyang.

"Rain's Shanghai concert was broadcast live through an Internet channel in China, and he was recently invited by pianist Lang Lang to perform together at the pianist's concert called 'Lang Lang & Friends Spring Music Festival,'" the agency added.

Although Rain has been busy for his concert tour, his agency revealed that the Korean artist plans to focus on his acting career after completing his show in Hong Kong. Rain reportedly plans to make an appearance on the upcoming drama "Please Come Back, Mister," which will air on Feb. 24.

Kpop Herald noted Thursday that Rain will be working with South Korean actress Lee Min Jung for the upcoming drama series.

Reports revealed that Rain will proceed to China, Japan, as well as in Southeast Asia and America for a few more shows once the filming for "Please Come Back, Mister" ends.

Rain was 16 years old when he started his career in singing. He made his debut in the industry with a boy band called Fanclub. The band was able to release two albums from 1998 to 2000. Rain debuted as a solo artist in 2002 with the album titled "Bad Guy."

In 2004, his career took off after he appeared in drama "Full House," along with Song Hye Kyo. The television drama series garnered popularity in the Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia and some other Asian countries.

Aside from that, Rain has also starred in "A Love to Kill," "The Fugitive: Plan B" and "My Lovely Girl."
