It was revealed that “Secret Garden” star Hyun Bin may visit Indonesia next month as part of his two-year-long stint in the Marine Corps as he was personally invited by the government.
According to HanCinema website, the 29 year-old actor, who is now serving his mandatory military service, may be heading overseas in an unofficial diplomatic role.
An officer of the Marine Corps stated, “The Indonesian government invited Hyun Bin to the nation’s Armed Forces Day ceremonies from 4 to 7 October, and the Ministry of National Defense is considering sending him to Indonesia.”
The reason for this special treatment is due to Hyun Bin’s popularity in Indonesia for his drama “Secret Garden” opposite actress Ha Ji-won. It was also revealed that the ministry is considering sending him as a special envoy for defense-related exchanges and bilateral cooperation in the defense industry.
Hyun Bin enlisted with the Marine Corps on 7 March 2011 for his two-year mandatory service and is serving as a combat infantryman in the 6th brigade on Baeknyeong Island. The Corps is now considering reassigning him to a public relations unit and he will be discharged on 6 December 2012.
