Actor Hyun Bin will be making his comeback on the big screen in his first work since completing military service as a naval officer in December.

Hyun Bin who has participated in many series such as ‘My name is Kim Sam soon’ and ‘Secret Garden’, has been cast in the upcoming history movie titled, ‘The Anger of King’. He will play the charismatic King Jungjo, the 22nd ruler of the Joseon dynasty.

The life of King Jungjo has been played out through numerous dramas and films in the past, but Hyun Bin’s new film will be approaching it from an entirely different angle, by portraying Jeongjo as a strong and authoritative king.

A representative from movie production stated, “As Hyun Bin chose this piece as his first comeback project, and it is a period film, it is expected that he will further expand his acting career in the future.”

‘The Anger of King’ is scheduled for release in the first half of 2014.

She continued, “Sul Kyung Gu has the scent of Makgeolli (Korean rice wine), and Lee Seung Gi has a sweet caramel scent.”

Hallyu actor Hyun Bin, who is currently undertaking his mandatory military service in the Marine Corps, has been released for a well-deserved 10-day break.

AM Entertainment confirmed on May 5 that its talent was indeed on holiday starting “from early this month.” The agency also said that it had no idea the star was on break until it scanned the news.

“We don’t usually let others know about breaks from the military. As far as we know, Hyun Bin is spending his time with friends and family until he returns to the Marines next week.”

Hyun Bin has been with the Marines since March last year and will be discharged this December.

Last year, as part of his duties, the Hallyu actor visited Indonesia to promote the Korean military, and even earlier in that year the Marine Corps made a promotional photo book capturing Hyun’s military life.

Actor Hyun Bin and the nation's most in-demand dance group Girls' Generation have been voted as the celebrities Korean workers most want to invite to their year-end parties.

Of 980 office workers surveyed by Hiscott Kingdom, the whiskey-making affiliate of Hite Jinro, 39 percent chose Hyun Bin as their No. 1 pick among male stars, while 35 percent selected Girls' Generation as their top choice among female celebrities.

Office workers also favor relatively simple end-of-the-year parties this year due to the slow economy.

Heartthrob Hyun Bin, who serves in the Marine Corps, will visit Indonesia from Wednesday to Friday to attend the Indonesian Armed Forces Day ceremony and visit a marine corps unit.

The Indonesian government invited Hyun (29) because he is popular there thanks to the TV soap "Secret Garden."

"Indonesia is an important country for us because of our arms exports such as T-50 supersonic jet trainers and submarines," a Korean military officer said. "We can boost the image of our military merely by presenting Korean stars in military uniform."
