Just when “Agent Kim Reactivated” had fans on the edge of their seats with gunshots, river jumps, and a desperate manhunt, the show hits pause for something unexpectedly tender — a flashback to when its three battle-worn dads were just young friends helping each other move house.
From Bloodied Present To Carefree Past
Based on a popular webtoon, the action-revenge drama follows Manager Kim (So Ji Sub), an ordinary-looking father hiding a dangerous past as he risks everything to find his missing daughter, Min Ji. In the most recent episode, Manager Kim, Sung Han Soo (Choi Dae Hoon), and Park Jin Chul (Yoon Kyung Ho) finally teamed up in the search — Manager Kim pushing forward despite a gunshot wound, Sung Han Soo diving into a river, and Park Jin Chul choosing to turn himself in.
Episode 5 rewinds the clock, showing the trio in their younger, glasses-free days: bickering, teasing, and leaning on each other while moving into a new home together. One newly released still even captures all three friends posing for a commemorative photo with a young Min Ji after the move wraps up.
Agent Kim Reactivated: The Trio, Then And Now
| Character | Actor | Then (Flashback) | Now (Present) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Manager Kim | So Ji Sub | Group’s reliable pillar | Injured, still searching for Min Ji |
| Sung Han Soo | Choi Dae Hoon | Nagging taekwondo master | Risked his life in a river rescue |
| Park Jin Chul | Yoon Kyung Ho | Shows off his strength | Turned himself in for the group |
The production team teased that these scenes reveal the special bond the three shared before life turned them into the “dads with glasses” fans know today, with more of their backstory unfolding across Episodes 5 and 6.
