It has been reported that Yoo Ah-in is being considered for a role of a rebellious student for the movie “Wandeukee” (완득이). The movie is based on a best-selling coming of age novel that also won the 2007 Young Adults Literature Award. Although nothing has been confirmed, I can totally see Yoo Ah-in playing another rebel role who slowly becomes fond of his teacher (Kim Yoon Seuk) as they try to work out their differences.
Looking forward to a confirmatory press release soon. However, for the record, I’ll say this. I’d much rather prefer Yoo Ah-in in another drama over a movie. Rationale: 16 hours of Yoo Ah-in > 2 hours of Yoo Ah-in.
