Kim Soo Hyun to Be Spy for ′Be Covert, Be Great′

Kim Soo Hyun will be going from king to spy in his next film Be Covert, Be Great.


Kim Soo Hyun became one of Korea′s most beloved actors with his pure and charismatic Lee Hwon role in The Sun and the Moon, which wrapped up in March. His newfound status had many wondering where he would be going next.

Be Covert, Be Great is about a North Korean spy named Won Ryu Hwan, who disguises himself as the unemployed village idiot living in a run-down home.

The film itself has also gathered much interest with regards to the cast, after it was confirmed for production, on who would be portraying the main character, confused about his identity in the divided nation and the warmth he feels from his neighbors in the active and moving narratives.

Kim Soo Hyun will show off his comedic chops and action acting skills as Won Ryu Han, acting as both a cute boy in the neighborhood and a charismatic, cold spy to showcase different charms and deliver laughter and deep emotions with one role.

His fans are looking forward to seeing Kim Soo Hyun showcase his action skills.

A rep from Kim Soo Hyun′s agency Key East told enews on April 28, "Kim Soo Hyun decided to appear in the piece because of his trust in the original and for the producers, and he was attracted to the joyous yet serious images of the characters. He′s working hard on preparing for the film so that he can appear in front of his audience with a great piece, so you can look forward to it."

Be Covert, Be Great is originally a webtoon that was serialized on the portal site Daum and won the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism Award at the 2011 Korea Contents Awards. It is still working on its cast, and will start filming sometime in the latter half of the year.
