Manager Kim (So Ji-Sub) works at a small savings bank. He seems like an ordinary single father, raising his daughter Min-Ji. He has a secret that he can't reveal, even to his own daughter. His secret is that he is a former spy and he was dispatched on countless special operations. He is on North Korea's most wanted blacklist and his existence in South Korea is like a time bomb that should not be revealed.

Sia Jul 04 2026 5:04 pm So ji sob is a phenomenal actor when it comes to action scenes korea needs to invest more in hiring talented actors not just pretty faces

noony Jul 04 2026 11:41 am @IMO007 no, he is not park young gwang. Ju gang chan will be beaten up by manager kim later on after trying to offer manager kim money to work fro him.

IMO007 Jul 04 2026 11:34 am Hmm, what if #66 Park Yeong-Gwang is not dead like they say and its Ju Gang-Chan? just a guess.... Somehow #66 made it out with the help of #73-Kim but split up when they got to the South and the guy from the North Gang-Seong is Gang-Chan brother? LOL,,, Well just a thought many more episodes to go. SOOO GOOD!!!

Alisa Jul 03 2026 8:32 pm Korean version of Taken x John Wick I enjoyed it

Emmmmy Jul 03 2026 1:51 pm Love it and love So Ji Sub! A huge fan forever! ??

YY Jul 02 2026 10:32 am this is like a john wick movie but in korean version

Andrea Jul 02 2026 10:01 am A cliche writing -Hwang Don't Man

andin Jun 30 2026 5:23 am really hope to see seong tae hoon and park dabin. since seong tae hoon in jdrama viral hit very far from my expectation?

miExGwyn Jun 28 2026 11:34 pm For some reason, this KDrama reminds me of the movie by Liam Neeson “Taken”. I’m hooked already!!!!

Mandra Jun 28 2026 8:06 pm Can we get Seong TaeHoon and Park Dabin too??

Rosie Boo Jun 28 2026 2:28 pm Absolutely love this drama! First time I watched So Ji Sub, I have never seen this actor before. It's amazing that he can be humble as a dad to Minji, and then changes like a chameleon when Minji goes missing. I'm sticking to this drama all the way.

Lucy Jun 28 2026 6:00 am Wowwww!!!

 Great drama!! Great acting! As always! Oppa SJS!????

And then see my other Oppa JSW!?? Great actors!

SillyValley Jun 28 2026 4:31 am Educational Rights Protection Bureau Agent Na Hwa-Jin (Kim Moo-Yul) and Agent Kim (So Ji-Sub) back-to-back is giving me butterflies! Both give the best satisfying slaps! My heart can’t take it! ???

Jamse Jun 28 2026 12:56 am How much do you want to bet that the North Korean assassin really is Agent Kim’s brother?

Jamse Jun 27 2026 11:52 pm Holy Guacamole! Are we in for incredible ride with this drama!

Gemini22 Jun 27 2026 5:05 pm I love this drama. Exciting and intense. I love the casts especially So ji Sub. And now... jo sang wook a villain ? in used to watch you as the protagonist but you are a good actor too. This drama is worth watching ❤️❤️?

linollama Jun 27 2026 12:56 pm as expected Seo Jisub's drama never fails!!!!!! His acting is so top notch! I really love when he's doing action movie or drama. Can't wait for the 3rd episode...

Jillibean Jun 27 2026 6:43 am First episode almost at 10% ratings in Korea. That's a good sign. :)

Thursday Jun 26 2026 11:59 pm Watching the first episode now! Netflix describes the series as Goofy! Jisub has very good comedic timing!

Kpocchaco Jun 26 2026 11:41 pm Agent Kim Reactivated starts with a bang, delivering a gut-punching debut that perfectly captures the desperation of a father pushed to his limits. So Ji-sub is incredible as the unassuming Manager Kim, but it’s the chemistry between him and his allies—Choi Dae-hoon and Yoon Kyung-ho—that gives the show its heart. Seo Su-min shines in her debut role as Min-ji, and the raw portrayal of her school struggles adds a heavy, grounded stakes that makes the action feel even more urgent. Paired with Joo Sang-wook’s chilling turn as the antagonist, this series is an absolute must-watch. An intense, high-octane thriller that I’m already completely hooked on! Can’t wait to watch the next episode! ?

IMO007 Jun 26 2026 9:25 pm So far,, really good. Ep1 and it’s already soo exciting. This is the drama you need if you love action with humor. I’m a So Ji Sub fan since the 2000s so anything he’s in I’m front and center., but the rest of the cast are great actors as well. Can’t wait for another episode each week.

Wu Jun 26 2026 8:30 pm I thought it was sequel of my secret terrius, but definitely I got wrong

Emma Jun 21 2026 1:24 am Hopefully it's 16 episodes ??

Jillibean Mar 02 2026 8:10 pm So Jisub and Su Jeong Im together in I'm Sorry, I Love You (2004) got me addicted to Korean dramas those two decades ago. If it wasn't for them I probably never would have realized the immense pleasure that being a devoted K-drama fan can be in one's life.

This one sounds very interesting. I wonder who they will cast as the daughter?

Lilian Feb 14 2026 5:18 am Cannot wait he is the best!!

Yola Jan 22 2026 7:25 pm Korean john wick, hell yeah i am excited!!

Cindy Q Sep 14 2025 7:21 pm Omg!! Yessss. I love this Webtoon! I was wondering when a drama would be made. I can't wait. Especially after watching him in No Mercy. <3

Yi an Sep 13 2025 4:16 am OMG can`t wait to see Ji Sub in another action packed drama. Keep challenging your self oppa, fighting! This drama is giving My Secret, Terrius and action vibes, looking forward to it!
