Korean heartthrob Kim Jun has been accepted to a graduate school at Korea's Hankuk University of Foreign Studies.

An official from Kim's agency Planet 905 told 10Asia over the phone on Tuesday, "Kim Jun will attend Hankuk University of Foreign Studies for graduate school in March of next year under the Department of Global Cultural Contents."

Kim began his undergraduate studies as a chemistry major at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies in 2002 but will graduate next February from Cyber Hankuk University of Foreign Studies' Japanese division to which he transferred due to his busy schedule while shooting last year's hit TV series "Boys Over Flowers."

Kim, 26, made his debut in the entertainment industry in 2007 as a rapper of K-pop group T-MAX. He rose to stardom playing one of the famous F4 characters in "Boys" last year alongside Lee Min-ho, Kim Hyun-joong and Kim Bum.

He is currently working with fellow group mates on their upcoming album which will be released sometime next year.
