Distributed by Contents Panda, HUMINT is an espionage action movie depicting North and South Korean secret agents clashing while uncovering crimes occurring at the Vladivostok border. The film’s title HUMINT stands for Human Intelligence, referring to intelligence-collection activities through people.

Park Jeong-min has also worked with Ryoo on Smugglers, and he will play the role of Park Geon, a captain of North Korea’s State Security Department.

After appearing in 2023’s best-performing film at the box office, 12.12: The Day, Park Hae-joon will take on the role of Hwang Chi-sung, the Consulate-General of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea in Vladivostok.

Singer-actress Nana will play Chae Seon-hwa, a waitress in North Korean restaurant.
