With Song Joong Ki getting discharged from the army in May, it′s been revealed that he received a lovecall from romantic comedy factory, writer Kim Eun Sook, gaining much attention for what he′ll do after he′s out.

According to broadcast affiliates on February 4, Song Joong Ki recently received an offer to appear as the male lead in Kim Eun Sook′s newest drama, Descendants of the Sun (tentative).

As he′s still in the army, a confirmation cannot be made, but it′s said that Song Joong Ki′s agency and the drama production company have already begun sincere discussions.


Descendants of the Sun is a project that will require many overseas shoots as well as a large amount of production fee and time.

With Kim Eun Sook known for her hit dramas, such as Secret Garden, The Heirs, On Air, Lovers in Paris and more, the pre-production of this drama is already gathering attention on and off the screen. It′s said that KBS is planning on broadcasting this drama in the second half of 2015, although the details are still being discussed.

Anticipation is high as to whether Song Joong Ki does join Kim Eun Sook in this project. Kim Eun Sook is known for her ′win-win′ history of working with top stars, like Hyun Bin in Secret Garden and Lee Min Ho and Kim Woo Bin in The Heirs.

As Song Joong Ki has been noticed for his eye-catching looks and acting ahead of his military enlistment, people are predicting that if both sides come to a final agreement, the public response will be explosive.

Regarding this, Song Joong Ki′s agency, Blossom Entertainment told Newsen, "As his army discharge approaches closer, we′ve been getting flooded with many offers."

The rep continued, "Just as we′ve said with the previous movie offer, we′re leaving the offers for Descendants of the Sun and many others open and discussing them."

Song Joong Ki was previously offered a role in the Korea-China produced movie, Martial Arts. The agency stated then, "We have received an offer to appear in the film Martial Arts, but it′s just one of the many projects that were offered to us. We haven′t decided on anything."

Song Joong Ki enlisted in the army in August 2013 and will be discharged in May.

Don't do it. Kim Eun Sook is a hack!

I actually have some hope for this project! she's teaming up with the writer who did queen's classroom and i think with the backlash she got from heirs she might go back to her city hall days

kim eun sook's a good writer when she wants to be but her philosophy's always been very commercial and i'm sure she's noticed that her typical rich prince charming won't work in kdrama anymore (especially as evidenced by hyunbin's drama flopping).

with that said i think this is a media play from song joong ki.

not really, it didn't leak from his side.

there's always articles like this from stars who are almost done with their military duty - yoo seung ho, hyun bin etc. it doesn't have to be a blatant announcement to the world from his agency, just some words and dinner with the reporters who will conveniently write about possible projects he was offered...

i don't think song joong ki would take this project either, but it's a nice "hey guys he's coming out soon and look he's still hot enough to get offered roles" article.

waitwaitwait she also wrote city hall? you just broke my brain.

yup and also on air.

the woman knows how to write, and as much as i give her shit for writing garbage like heirs she's very smart - she's just obsessed with ratings and "doesn't want to do art with someone else's money" - hence the cinderella stories. and city hall and on air were the two dramas that were "good" in quality but lower in ratings soooooo...

but teaming up with the other writer for this drama, she's giving me good vibes.

it's too bad that she decided to waste her talent, but I guess a girl has got to eat. I haven't seen the queen's classroom but have heard good things. Who knows. Maybe it could work.

No.

Unless the writer decides to trash out that whole chaebol guy meets poor but spunky girl and they gonna get through all odds shtick of a plot line. But Joongki has acted in a pretty diverse roles so we'll see...

"poor but spunky girl"
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHA
Spunky, she is not. It falters halfway through and the heroine remains dumb after. This writer is a joke.

NOOOOOOOO Joong Ki you deserve better! Your career, your choices etc

and Kim Eun-seok's classic jerk chaebol hero is such a played out trope, unless she switches things up drastically I'm nhft and hope he takes a movie instead.

i love joong ki and i've missed him so much. im desperate for him to get in a drama and the plot sounds promising minus the overseas filming which from kill me heal me i don't trust.

the writer when she's not being commerical is pretty good and secret garden was the basic and also the best.

i'd rather this than the movie

I need him back in a good drama. No one has been able to fill his pretty-boy-who-can-act shoes for me.
