Rain's girlfriend Kim Tae Hee is serious about her faith. So, when Rain recently was baptized in the Catholic faith, it led fans to assume that his conversion was a step in their plans to marry.

The actor-singer was baptized on July 10 in a Gyeonggi-do church. Kim Tae Hee attended, as did her family and his close friends and family.

Rain's agency, Cube Entertainment, told Yonhap News that, "Rain recently received Catholic baptism."

Actor Ahn Sung Ki, who is also a devout Catholic, served as Rain's godfather. He is a friend of Kim Tae Hee's and her family. Ahn Sung Ki and actress Park Si Yeon will soon appear in the film "The Last Knights" with Clive Owen and Morgan Freeman.

But Rain's agency denied the rumors that the baptism would lead to a wedding ceremony, at least not directly.

Cube told Yonhap News that the couple had no specific marriage plans and fans should not interpret the baptism ceremony as being anything more than it was. The baptism has been planned for some time.

"Please do not interpret the baptism as an impending marriage," said his agency.

According to his agency, Rain discusses his personal life with them and if he were thinking about getting married, he would have shared that news.

But the agency did not know he was dating Kim Tae Hee before they went public with in January 2013. When the drama and film star announced that he was seeing Kim Tae Hee, it shocked fans and even the stars' agencies. His agency had no idea they were dating.

When they went public, they had been dating for three months, saw each other once a week and had already spent the Christmas holidays together.

She was filming the drama "Jang Ok Jung" and he was still in active military service.

When they went public with their relationship, interviewers asked about their marriage plans.

"Dating, marriage, and becoming pregnant isn't something that can happen because you plan it," said the 34-year-old actress. "Now that I am getting older, I don't want to marry too late. But if I marry before 40 I will consider it a success."

When he ended his military service and released his comeback album "Rain Effect," he was asked which of his songs was dedicated to Kim.

He would not say if he dedicated a song to her but some said that the romantic song titled "I Love You" sounded like a proposal.

Rain did say that he thought of Kim Tae Hee while writing the song but that they had no wedding plans. They were just happy to spend time together and that the relationship was stronger than ever.

Rain is considering a role in a new drama titled "Song For You."
