[HanCinema's News] Do Kyung-soo Confirmed for "Secret: Untold Melody"

Actor and singer Do Kyung-soo has been confirmed as the headliner for the upcoming "Secret: Untold Melody" which is a remake of the 2008 Taiwanese movie of the same name. Do Kyung-soo will play the same role that Jay Chou did in that romantic melodrama, which centers around the relationship between a genius student at a musical school and a mysterous girl he often finds playing the piano. The female lead will be selected through a competitive audition and is not expected to be a major star.

The project is seen as a natural fit for Do Kyung-soo's brand, which is highly romantic through his connection to EXO though few of his acting roles have taken advantage of this. While Do Kyung-soo was discharged from military service on January 25th it is still unclear what his comeback project will be. In addition to "Secret: Untold Melody" he is also listed as cast for "The Moon" and "Along with the Gods 3" and it is unknown which movie will begin filming and be screened first.

Seo Yoo-min will direct the project. Seo Yoo-min is best known as a scriptwriter, having written the scripts for such titles as "April Snow" and "You Call It Passion" among others. Seo Yoo-min also directed the mystery thriller "Recalled" which stars Kim Kang-woo and Seo Yea-ji in the leading roles but does not yet have a release date. "Secret: Untold Melody" is expected to begin filming later this year.
