Choi Jin Hyuk is currently considering a role in MBC′s new drama Pride and Prejudice.
On September 16, Choi Jin Hyuk′s agency, Red Brick House, told Newsen, "Choi Jin Hyuk recently received the offer to appear in Pride and Prejudice and is positively considering it." The agency added, "His participation has not been confirmed yet."
"As there′s still some time before his military enlistment, he′s looking into his next project," added the agency. Choi Jin Hyuk canceled his acceptance to the police force on August 20. He has been automatically put on the list for active duty service.
The role Choi Jin Hyuk was offered is Goo Dong Chi, the chief prosecutor of the Incheon District Prosecutor′s Office. Kim Ah Joong has been named as his possible counterpart as junior examiner Han Yeol Moo. Attention is being poured to see if the two will join Pride and Prejudice.
Meanwhile, Pride and Prejudice is a love story about district attorneys fighting against a prideful world and a prejudiced prosecution. The drama will be directed by Kim Jin Min PD, who worked on Time Between Dog and Wolf, with the script writeten by Lee Hyun Joo, who also wrote School 2014.
It′ll follow The Night Watchman′s Journal in October.

Date: 2014-09-17 03:16 am (UTC)BTW OP, did he wants to do active duty or was forced since he missed the deadline?

Date: 2014-09-17 03:39 am (UTC)He was accepted for the conscripted policeman celeb PR unit, but he declined it a month ago to go active duty. I don't think he was forced to because he missed the deadline. He just chose not to. My guess is that he probably thought about it and decided to man up and enlist instead of serving the celeb unit which would have brought him a lot of criticism. I'm sure his agency, being owned by Jung Woo Sung, was probably like yeah ... no. ENLIST.

OH HELL YES.
Date: 2014-09-17 03:27 am (UTC)My body is SO ready for a new Choi Jin Hyuk drama.
When I first this news I thought it was a k-adaption of Jane Austen's and was like SQUEE he'd be perfect for Bingley and maybe even Darcy. But then I read further and it was a lawyer drama. OK. IDC. I'm just glad he's the lead to a drama again. WHOO.
Apparently, his character is supposed to be cold (typical kdrama male lead), but with an intuitive 2nd sense in almost reading people's thoughts.
If this is the last drama he takes before enlisting, i'll take it. FTLY's poor usage of him left me wanting to see him in one more acting project before saying goodbye for two years. Thank goodness he's got stuff lined up before he goes.
