External mic, what are my options with an NX500

So! Sounds like my girlfriend is gonna be buying my NX300, so time for an upgrade.

NX500 has 4k shooting at 30 fps, but no external mic jack. I guess this wouldn't be much of a problem, but I want to get more into video, and an external mic seems like it would be necessary.

So with that in mind, video nerds, what are my options??
