Rain's agency, Sublime Artist Agency revealed on June 4 that, "Rain has been chosen as a model for Nongshim's Shrimp Cracker, which was released in 1971. It is more meaningful because we think it's done thanks to the wishes of many people," adding, "They will make future advertisements with Rain and the public."

The craze for the singer's 2017 song 'Gang', which started with online memes (including all the popular photos and video content online), became hotter as Rain revealed his appearance in MBC's entertainment show 'Hangout With Yoo', and people were responding cheerfully to it. The public continued to ask Rain to be selected as a "shrimp snack" model, and this request eventually led to Nongshim's decision.
