Actor So Jisub showed his appreciation by gifting pure gold to the entire cast and crew who worked alongside him for the conclusion of the SBS Friday-Saturday drama "Agent Kim Reactivated".
According to broadcasting and entertainment industry sources on the 27th, So Jisub presented pure gold to a total of about 300 people, including the cast, production team, and general staff of "Agent Kim Reactivated". It was reported to be a generous gift totaling approximately 100 million won based on the market price at the time of purchase.
A certification photo released through an online community featured a dedicated gold case along with a heartfelt message that read, "I felt great emotion and happiness while working on this project together. Thank you to everyone who quietly and brilliantly shined their own light on 'Agent Kim Reactivated'."
This is not the first time So Jisub has received praise for his good deeds. He previously gifted gold to actors, managers, and the entire staff after finishing filming for the Netflix original series "Mercy for None" last year. At the time, So Jisub appeared on variety shows and wittily explained, "I used to give many other gifts, but people thought they were sponsored. Things are tough for everyone these days, so I prepared this in case they might need to sell it and use it later," drawing widespread attention.
Meanwhile, "Agent Kim Reactivated", starring So Jisub, is a revenge action drama about an ordinary father who sets out to get his daughter back, and it came to an end on the 25th. The final episode of "Agent Kim Reactivated" achieved massive success, recording a nationwide viewership rating of 23.0 percent and 23.4 percent in the metropolitan area based on Nielsen Korea. The project also maintained its popularity in the global market by ranking first in the Netflix non-English TV show category for three consecutive weeks. Thanks to its box office success, "Agent Kim Reactivated" was organized with two special broadcast episodes.
