Despite the heavy rain, hundreds of fans came to the airport to see the stars. The fans did not forget to greet the stars by name when they came out one by one. The rain that has been lashing the capital for the past two days was heavier today. The fans are now worried that the rain will disrupt the warm-up match to be held the next day.
