The singer "BoA" appears to be growing more interested in acting these days, as she is reportedly about to join the cast of another movie, titled "Ingenious Beauty".

The singer recently acted in a short two-episode drama on KBS called "Hope for Love", earning her many positive reviews for her natural acting style.

""BoA" has shown that she can succeed as an actress", said one movie industry expert, according to local media reports.

"She may be the right person, for there are currently not so many actresses [in Korea] in their 20s actively filming movies", the expert said.

The movie will reportedly start filming next month and is aiming to be released in the second half of next year.
