He will focus on filming ‘Lightning Ship’ after the schedule is set.”

When asked about Song Joong Ki’s personal schedule, the agency replied, “Because it’s the actor’s personal life, we cannot go into details. We ask for your understanding.”

Song Joong Ki was previously confirmed to star in “Lightning Ship,” a science fiction film set in the backdrop of the universe. The actor will be joined by Kim Tae Ri, Jin Seon Kyu, and Yoo Hae Jin.
