Super Junior's Kangin will be returning to the big screen for the first time in five years!

He will be the male lead in movie 'Cat Funeral' as an indie musician named Dong Hoon. The production crew will be taking a popular webtoon and turning it into a romantic, healing film in which two separated lovers meet for the first time in a year in order to hold a funeral for the cat they had raised together.  The story will cover the one night and two days of their brief reunion.

The production crew said, "The male lead, Dong Hoon, will definitely require delicate, emotional acting and eclectic charms that include guitar playing and singing skills.  We cast Kangin because of his pureness as well as his gaze that portrays both sadness and conviction."

'Cat Funeral' will start filming in the middle of November and will premiere sometime in the first half of next year!
