The latest reports are saying that actor and father Song Il Kook is running as a candidate for the National Assembly this coming April, but it turns out they were just rumors.


Song Il Kook told StarNews through the phone, "Running as a candidate for the general election next year makes no sense. It is unfounded."


He continued, "Right now I am filming the KBS drama 'Jang Yeong Sil', which will air in January. The elections are in April and realistically it doesn't make sense. If [reporters] had known about this, they wouldn't have written that I am running for election."

He added, "If I had possibility decided to run for election, I would have had to quit during filming for my drama. Then I wouldn't have decided to take part in the drama 'Jang Yeong Sil'. It seems like an unfounded report has spread. I am not running as a candidate for election."

Song Il Kook seems fairly annoyed by the false reports, and it makes sense. He's currently very busy juggling 'Superman Is Back' and filming for his drama at the same time!
