Actor Hyun Bin returned from his military duty back in December of '12 but hasn't released any news on his next acting move until now. Fans of the insanely popular star have been counting down the days for the "My Name is Kim Sam Soon" and “Secret Garden” star to make a return to the big screen and it looks like the superstar is finally gearing up to make his long-awaited cinematic comeback.

In his return, via the silver screen, Hyun Bin will be collaborating with director Lee Jae Gyu on his first directorial film debut called "King's Wrath."  The film takes place during the Chosun dynasty era where Hyun Bun will play the role of King Jungjo. "King's Wrath" is the first sagaeuk film Hyun Bin has ever taken on, and I'm sure it won't be his last.

Hyun Bin recently held a press conference in Singapore where he opened up about his unexpected success with "Secret Garden," how he fell in love with acting, and what he would do if he wasn't an actor.

KpopStarz was fortunate to be part of the press conference and is bringing you some of Hyun Bin’s thoughts during the session. 

Check out some translated snippets below:

On the similarities and differences between himself and the "Secret Garden" character:

Hyun Bin: I am not that insensitive or selfish like the character in "Secret Garden".Like in terms of probably relationship with other people, (like the character) I tend to care for the one I love.

On wanting to become an actor:

Hyun Bin: I took up the dream of acting when I studied theatre in my high school and that's when I started having the dream of being an actor. And that's when I went on to study acting in my uni and that's how it started.

On what he would do if he wasn't a superstar:

Hyun Bin: Before I took on the dream to be an actor, I honestly wanted to go to the police university. So I would probably be a policeman...

On the most difficult scene he's ever done:

Hyun Bin: There was this movie called "I'm Happy," which I think I was involved in, in 2007 or 2008. In terms of understanding the character, I reflected a lot on myself, and it took a lot of time thinking about the movie and the character; it was definitely the most difficult role for me to play.

In the same press conference, Hyun Bin has hinted on his final selection for his comeback film.  He says, “I think you will be seeing me soon. This character will probably involve me having two characters, something like bipolar.” In a much later instance during the press conference in Singapore, he revealed that the choice was narrowed down to this particular character.

Looks like Hyun Bin is up for a challenge in his next project. As reported, his next movie is set to premiere in early 2014. You can catch the Hallyu star making his rounds on his "First Asia Fan Meeting Tour."
