EXO’s Chanyeol in Final Talks for His First Movie, “Longevity Shop”

It looks like EXO’s Chanyeol might be making his acting/film debut!

On June 27, according to various industry officials, Chanyeol is in final talks for director Kang Jae Kyu’s new film “Longevity Shop” (lit.), the director’s first in three years. SM Entertainment said, “We’ve received the scenario for “Longevity Shop,” and we are looking it over.”

“Longevity Shop” was originally called “Greetings of Love” or “Last First Love,” and is about an old couple’s late-life romance.

If Chanyeol confirms for the film, he will be playing an innocent high school student, for his first foray into the acting world. Other actors who might be starring in the film include Park Geun Hyung, Yoon Yeo Jung, Jo Jin Woong, and Han Ji Min.

The film is set to crank in in August.

1. [+171, -14] Jumping into acting when it's only been two years since debut.............. Even though I'm an EXO fan, it's not something I can view positively........ Sorry.

2. [+148, -9] ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ No, Chanyeol don't go into acting ㅠㅠㅠ Varieties are fine but not acting ㅠㅠㅠ SM will never have an acting-dol like Lee Joon ㅠㅠㅠㅠ Can't we just stick to rapping and singing ㅠㅠㅠㅠ I'm saying this because I like you ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

3. [+122, -12] I don't hate Chanyeol but isn't he bad at acting; He did very poorly in K. Will's music video, especially his expressions...

1. [+3,424, -138] You'll get double the hate if you suck just because you're EXO

2. [+3,119, -189] Chanyeol-ah... Shooting a movie's fine but are you confident enough to do well? ㅠ I'm scared you'll get hate

3. [+2,265, -208] The power of SM

4. [+2,094, -208] EXO has finally creeped their way into the movie industry

5. [+1,504, -114] Isn't this the one Kang Dong Won is in?


A new addition to SM's long list of great actors, I see

That KWill music video will not be forgotten

I thought he'd get more support due to LOTJ and Roommate

The SM push for Chanyeol and Baekhyun is real

I direct your view to the activities of K in Korea and ask you to compare them to M in China

he received acting lessons as a trainee and apparently he was in acting school as well so i have faith in him,
though he could either be really good or really bad imo (i keep believing that kyungsoo and sehun are the superior actors in exo tbh)

Literally no one can ever match Joon so people shouldn't compare idols to him lol.

I feel like Chanyeol will be like Eunji in the sense that he'll only be good at one role and will continue to play that role in every single thing he gets signed to. I rewatched the KWill MV and it wasn't as bad as people were saying, minus that one scene with him and the girl playing around lol.

Acting wise he's the Yunho of EXO lbr.

I can't @ SM.

I think he could be good... or rather, I'm hoping he'll be good!

When is SM going to get around to getting a role for Sehun though? The lack of activities for the maknae is becoming conspicuous.

I wish I could see more of Kai and Sehun. They could be awkward mc or models together or something lol But if anything I want more of M members, especially chenchen. He should be on variety shows or radios. I dont care, just give me more of chen.

I've only watched attack on the pin up boys and an episode of paradise ranch so idk but can any SM idol actually act?

EDIT: also wondering when suho will get any acting opportunities since he goes to school for it and all, besides his prime minister and i cameo

The guy can act as his happy go lucky character in EXO without coming off as fake.

well... i mean if he gets the role than i am going to watch it, but that's only because i stan him and not because i have faith in his acting abilities.

Lol SM is really pushing for him. I love Chanyeol but I hope they're going on skill and suitability and not just shoving him anywhere.

Out of K, i honestly though SM would be pushing for Suho and Kai. Instead it's baek and chanyeol.
I need reasons bec im not sure i get it.

Baek was already the most popular member in the fandom before solo activities, so I understand. They pushed Chanyeol on Laws of the Jungle and he got public recognition and praise for that so now they're pushing him even more.

SM is really pushing solo activities early for Exo.
if he does get the role, i guess Donghae will visit the set because of Halbae (Park Geun Hyung)
poor M, i knew they would get shafted when SM came up with the idea.
SM doesn't know how to promote in China or any of the southern asian countries for that matter.
if SM doesn't push them into the market harder they will just become K's back up dancers for when they all get together.
