On the afternoon of June 25, a press conference for SBS's new Friday-Saturday drama 'Agent Kim Reactivated' (written by Nam Dae-jung, directed by Lee Seung-young and Lee So-eun) was held at the SBS headquarters in Mok-dong, Yangcheon-gu, Seoul. Director Lee Seung-young and actors So Ji-sub, Choi Dae-hoon, Yoon Kyung-ho, Joo Sang-wook, and Son Na-eun attended the event to share various stories about the drama.
Based on the popular webtoon of the same name, 'Agent Kim Reactivated' is a "dad-universe" revenge action drama about the "most ordinary" father in the world who becomes the "most dangerous" man to rescue his only daughter.
So Ji-sub plays "Manager Kim," an ordinary employee at a small savings bank and a devoted father who lives only for his high school sophomore daughter, Min-ji (played by Seo Soo-min). However, his true identity is a former special operations agent shrouded in mystery, making him a walking time bomb. Choi Dae-hoon plays Seong Han-soo, Tae-hoon's father and a former secret agent who was a Taekwondo gold medalist known as an "out-of-spec figure." Yoon Kyung-ho plays Park Jin-chul, Da-bin's father and a former secret agent dubbed the "God of War." Appearing as long-time friends of the protagonist Manager Kim (played by So Ji-sub), the two are expected to energize the drama by showcasing exceptional chemistry based on next-level action and deep fatherly love.
At the press conference, the three actors showered praise on their teamwork on set. First, Choi Dae-hoon shared his thoughts, saying, "The composition and combination were perfect. I think this will be remembered as a project that was wonderful not just as an actor, but as a human being." Expressing deep trust in the eldest, So Ji-sub, who anchored the set, he added, "When doing action scenes, Ji-sub hyung taught me a lot and always encouraged me, saying, 'Let's not overdo it or get greedy, and let's not get hurt.' Thanks to our leader standing firm as a reliable cornerstone, I filmed happily, and I felt a great sense of regret when it ended. Even without words, our great chemistry will be conveyed to the viewers."
In response, So Ji-sub also replied, "It has been a long time since I've been on a set where the filming process itself was so genuinely fun and happy," expressing his gratitude by saying, "Since they are such skilled veterans, our acting chemistry was excellent, and I received a lot of help from my colleagues."
Yoon Kyung-ho also showed off his unique playfulness, saying, "What more is there to say?" Referring to the delightful chemistry they showed as co-presenters at the SBS Drama Awards late last year, he described the atmosphere on set: "Even though our drama is not a comedy and does not aim for lightheartedness, but rather deals with heartwarming fatherly love, the chemistry on set was joyful and happy at every moment, just like during the awards ceremony."
Yoon Kyung-ho confidently introduced the distinct action style of 'Agent Kim Reactivated' created alongside So Ji-sub and Choi Dae-hoon. He hinted, "The style of action for all three characters is completely different. If senior So Ji-sub's action is cold yet hot, and Choi Dae-hoon's action is flashy, my action is powerful and thrilling," adding, "There is basically a 'rock spirit' embedded in the characters, which will deliver a strange sense of exhilaration to the viewers."
Armed with solid acting skills and tight teamwork, 'Agent Kim Reactivated' is the follow-up to the highly successful 'My Royal Nemesis' and will premiere on Friday, June 26 at 9:50 PM.
