SJ-M has possibly gotten lead acting gigs in a Chinese drama



excerpts from an article:

Junior-M马上就要集体献出在内地的电视剧处女秀！记者昨天获悉，曾制作过《魔戒之龙珠》、《奔月》等魔幻武侠剧的制片人黄京即将开拍魔幻武侠剧
《幻影8战士》，正力邀韩国偶像组合SJ-M七子出演其中的七战士，目前已和其经纪公司达成了初步协议。影片计划于今年春天开拍，锁定明年的寒假档。

一次偶然，剧组看到了SJ-M的表演，发现七位成员很符合该剧里角色的人物性格，而七人在演唱会上的一些华丽造型也颇有点魔幻的感觉，由此开始和SJ-M的经纪公司接触，希望SJ团体能够献出自己的内地电视处女秀。

SJ-M曾有犹豫
有了中国小伙韩庚的领衔，SJ-M目前已经成为继神话、东方神起后在中国最红的韩国偶像组合，不过黄京告诉记者，刚开始和SJ-M接触时，其经纪公
司却有不少顾虑：其一，七人除了韩庚曾出演过电视剧外，其他六人都没有表演经历，之前也完全没有表演方面的训练；其二，要出演一部全部讲中文的电视剧，对
其他六人来说也是相当大的挑战。
不过此次七子对于能够共同出演一部电视剧倒是表现出了很大的兴趣，而经纪公司在看过剧本后，也觉得剧中七战士的角色可以让七人有很大的发挥空间，而剧中变幻的古装造型更是可以把SJ-M的造型可塑性推向极致，因此决定让七人共同出演。

黄京称，目前双方沟通得很好，现在档期也已经基本敲定。影片计划争取在今年春天里开机，赶上明年的寒假档播出。

original article here, and another, slightly more detailed and relevant one here. all entirely in chinese.

the articles are saying that sj-m is possibly going to star in a new
fantasy-warrior serial. the kind set in olden china dynasty days with
swordsmen and maidens decked out in elaborate cloths and awesome
wushu/swordplay where they fly around and cast yin-yang energy spells.

will translate the first paragraph of the article quoted above cuz that’s the most important and exciting one.

SJ-M is going to bring their virgin television series together as a
whole group to audiences! As the reporter got to know yesterday, the producer behind 《The Magic Ring: Dragon Pearl》, 《Eloping To The Moon》, and other fantasy-warrior pieces, Huang Jing, is looking to begin
filming another fantasy-warrior piece, 《The Mythical 8 Warriors》,
inviting the 7 members of Korean idol group SJ-M to play 7 of the 8
warriors, and is currently in first-step negotiations with the managing
company (sm entertainment!). The film is projected to begin production
in spring of this year, and is planned to broadcast during the winter
holidays of next year.
(pardon the cheesy translations of the titles. that’s how chinese olden dramas are usually titled.)

i don’t think this is classified as a rumor, cuz they ARE in initial
discussions over this arrangement. hopefully it works out! if it does i
have no idea when spring of this year is in china. does anyone know?
then we’ll know how much it clashes with the release of the 3jib.
the boys seriously have to take care of themselves…before all the
action starts they’ve already got a whole load of work to do set out in
front of them.
