According to his agency, Salt Entertainment, that the actor is “positively reviewing the role.” So, what can we expect from the film if ever it gets made?
He is probably going to shoot in the Philippines
The story is going to be about a man who has a Korean father and a Filipino mother. He dreams of becoming a boxer and soon comes to Korea to find his father who abandoned him. In his quest to find his father, he will meet bad guys that will put him in troubling situations.
Base on the synopsis, there’s a huge possibility that some scenes might be shot in the Philippines, but the big question is—who will play the Filipino mother or will there be other familiar Filipino actors who will also be present in the film?
