Meanwhile, Nichkhun hinted at future promotions in China as he expressed his wishes to mature as an actor there.  He said, "I did debut in Korea, but I want to develop in China.  I wish people would think of me as a Chinese actor rather than a Korean celebrity.  In addition, I am half Chinese."

His drama, also starring miss A's Jia, will finally begin airing on June 23!
