Agent Kim Reactivated is Coming to Netflix: Legendary Webtoon Action Comes to Life!
The news that action lovers and webtoon enthusiasts have been eagerly awaiting has finally arrived. Netflix has released the official trailer for Agent Kim Reactivated, the live-action series adapted from the popular South Korean webtoon series. According to the announcement, the series will meet viewers worldwide simultaneously on June 26. This date has been planned to coincide with the production's premiere on local television channels in South Korea.
The series, originally titled Manager Kim (Kim Bu-jang) and reaching millions of readers via Naver Webtoon, is known as one of the toughest and most beloved parts of the PTJ Company universe, founded by the famous author Park Tae-jun. The story focuses on the character Kim, who appears to be an ordinary corporate manager but is actually a former special operations agent with a dark past. When his daughter is kidnapped, Kim dusts off his old skills and wages a one-man war against the underworld.
The series has a large fan base, especially because it takes place in the same universe (PTJ Universe) as works like Lookism and How to Fight. The trailer shows that the webtoon's unique, fast-paced, and ruthless fight choreographies have been successfully transferred to live-action. The producers state that they aim to present both dramatic depth and high-tempo action scenes in a balanced way, remaining faithful to the spirit of the original work.
At a time when webtoon adaptations like Sweet Home and All of Us Are Dead have achieved global success, Agent Kim Reactivated is a candidate to be one of Netflix's strongest assets in this field. Especially for viewers interested in martial arts-themed productions, this series is among the most remarkable works of the summer season. This adventure, which will begin on June 26, is also expected to bring more details about the past of the Manager Kim character to light.
