‘Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo’ Star Lee Sung Kyung to Transform Into A Wrestler In ‘Love Sling’ Movie?

"Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo" star Lee Sung Kyung will be moving on to another project where she will give life to the character of a wrestler.

According to My Castco, Lee Sung Kyung is being eyed to headline the movie, "Love Sling." However, the actress has not yet accepted the offer. As of late, actor Yoo Hae Jin has already been cast, and he will be starring alongside Lee Sung Kyung if she will accept the role.

In the movie, the two actors' relationship will be that of a father and daughter who do not necessarily have a close bond with each other. However, their broken relationship will be mended by their love and passion for wrestling.

As of late, it is still unclear whether or not Lee Sung Kyung will be appearing in the movie because the actress previously admitted that she's very particular with accepting roles both for television and the big screen. In fact, she was previously tapped to star in the SBS drama "Suspicious Partner," which was later on titled "Be Careful of this Woman." After reading through the first draft of the script, she declined to be part of the project.

Meanwhile, regardless of whether or not she will accept the lead role in "Love Sling," Lee Sung Kyung still has plenty of things on her plate. The actress recently confirmed that she and Nam Joo Hyuk are dating. In an interview with Grazia Korea, the actress admitted that working with Nam Joo Hyuk in "Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo" wasn't an easy thing.

After all, the two of them have known each other since their modeling days, and it was quite a challenge getting into character. In the end, the two actors were still able to give life to their characters well, and their onscreen chemistry also paved the way for them to be an item in the real world.
