Yoon Eun Hye to star on "DUNK"

Singer-turned- actress Yoon Eun-hye has been offered to play a leadingrole in the sports film "Dunk" to be produced in Taiwan.

Based on the Japanese manga "Slam Dunk", the film will be producedwith a budget of some 10 million US dollars, and Taiwan's leading starJay Chou has already been cast as the male lead.

The offer seems to have been extended to Yoon because of thepopularity she enjoyed in Chinese-speaking nations as a member of thefive-woman group Baby V.O.X and through "Princess Hours", the MBC hitdrama where she played a leading role.

In July, an AP report had said that pan-Asian star Boa would act in"Dunk", but her agency denied the report, saying, "No offers have beenmade to us, so we do not know anything about it. If we receive anofficial offer, we will consider it".
