Posted by rameninmybowl5 pts Thursday, April 15, 2010

Hollywood is currently gearing up for their first filming session of Korean American hip hop movie, Hype Nation - just recently, the makers have announced of their exclusive selection ofJay Park to play the male lead. Due to the fact that the majority of the storyline takes place in Korea, it has also been confirmed that Jay Park himself will be departing to the country around June. Another rumor about the movie has been confirmed by a representative today, and it looks like Hype Nation will be filled with k-pop after all! It's been confirmed by a report that a Korean girl group member will be selected for the female lead role, playing the sister of Jay Park in the movie. Many female k-pop stars have actually been considered for this female role, including BoA and Son Dambi. However, both stars had to bow out due to schedule conflicts. A representative revealed, "The role will be taken by a member of a Korean girl group. There are several stars who are in discussion [with us regarding this role] at the moment." The staff also confirmed Jaebeom's participation in the role again, saying, "It is a clear fact that Jaebeom has signed the contract for his appearance in the movie." So which girl group member would be suitable to be mighty Jay Park's sister? Guess we'll just have to sit tight! Source: Nate News
