The 28-year-old Korean actor, Kim Soo Hyun, has no plans yet regarding his military service as he is due to work on his new film "Real." In South Korea, men ages 18-35 years old are expected to enter the military for 21 months.
They undergo military training and even actors are not exempted, according to Jpopasia. But since Hyun will be busy for his upcoming movie, he has only two more years left before he turns thirty which is the deadline for enlisting before he reach the age of thirty-five.
"Of course Kim Soo Hyun is planning on serving on the army in the future; however, the time he will actually enlist is not yet determined. These details have yet to be discussed," Hyun's agency released statement as posted in Realty Today. They also said that when the time comes to arrange an enlistment date, they will make the appropriate announcements.
Furthermore, the production of his new film will start in January 2016 and will take place in Paradise City under Alibaba Pictures entitled "Real." The actor invested $ 7 million for the film report says.
Hyun will be playing the role of an ambitious ruthless man, Jang Tae Young who is in deep greed to establish his own casino and dreams to become the most powerful man in the city.
Hyun was best known in his roles in television dramas "Dream High," "Moon Embracing the Sun," "My Love from the Star," and "The Producers."
In his early life, Hyun was a timid child and his mother was the one who pursued him to take acting classes. He then majored at Chung- Ang University in Theater and Film Studies.
"Real" will be his first film after three years. Is this the last film that he will be making before he joins the military service?
