As if I needed further reason to fall in love with Stephen Colbert!! Colbert is miffed that Korean popstar Rain beat him out in TIME mag's top 100 most influential list so what does Colbert do? He comes out with a k-pop video of his own! Stephen manages to work in references to Kim Chee, Hyundai and "MASH" the tv show .. all while singing in Korean. PRICELESS!

BTW, this was a web poll driven list and the Colbert fanatics were outdone by hordes of teenaged K-pop fans and, to put things in perspective, Sanjaya Malakar landed at #3. If, in reality, we were living in a world where Sanjaya were actually the 3rd most influential person in the world, I would be hunkered down in an underground basement, replete with duct tape and canned goods, waiting for hell to finish freezing over.

Here's the music video of Stepehen's parody of Rain, followed by the complete bit from the show (with background on Rain and the MV Stephen parodies):
