Agent Kim Reactivated Ends with So Ji-sub, Choi Dae-hoon, and Yoon Kyung-ho

'Agent Kim Reactivated' is coming to a fiery conclusion. Centered around actor So Ji-sub, with Choi Dae-hoon and Yoon Kyung-ho, the drama has become one of the biggest hits of 2026, capturing audiences with its portrayal of the 'dad universe.'

SBS's Friday-Saturday drama 'Agent Kim Reactivated' has released the final thoughts of its main cast ahead of its 25th and final episode. So Ji-sub, who plays Kim Bu-jeong, a former agent who returns to action to protect his daughter, Choi Dae-hoon as Sung Han-su, and Yoon Kyung-ho as Park Jin-cheol, who balances humor and intense fatherhood, all expressed their deep affection and gratitude for the series.

Above all, So Ji-sub's commanding presence was the heart of 'Agent Kim Reactivated.' His cold, precise action sequences, restrained emotional performances, and the desperate paternal love he displayed for his daughter once again proved the enduring strength of a seasoned actor.

So Ji-sub said, "I sincerely thank all the viewers who loved and supported Kim Bu-jeong. It was a joy and an honor to work with the director, writer, staff, and fellow actors. I hope you enjoy the final episode and look forward to returning with great works in the future. I will never forget the overwhelming love you've given me."

What made 'Agent Kim Reactivated' special was that it wasn't just a spy action drama. Amidst large-scale national events and conspiracies, the show ultimately focused on family. The promise to his daughter mattered more than any mission, and the desire to return to a normal life as a father outweighed any revenge.

Choi Dae-hoon, who portrayed the emotional balance of the drama, said, "Receiving so much attention and love is a huge source of energy for an actor. I've gathered a lot of energy and will give it back. I'm happy and blessed, but my shoulders are also heavy. I'll return to the starting line and start anew," showing his responsibility as an actor.

Yoon Kyung-ho also left a deep impression with his unique character, 'rock and roll' Park Jin-cheol, who brought energy to the drama. While appearing to be the comedic relief, he ultimately showed the face of a father willing to sacrifice everything to protect his family.

Yoon Kyung-ho said, "During the broadcast, many people welcomed and supported me, and I felt immense love. I will cherish the happy memories of 'Agent Kim Reactivated' beautifully."

The three actors also highlighted their favorite scenes, which reflect the core of the drama. So Ji-sub chose the moment in episode 6's ending where Kim Bu-jeong reunites with his daughter Minji. The line, "Daddy's here. Let's go home now," was not just a simple line but a cry from a man who had lost his family for a long time and a declaration of recovery.

Choi Dae-hoon chose the scene where Kim Bu-jeong begins a new life after losing his wife, while Yoon Kyung-ho picked the scene where he has dinner with his daughter, whom he has reunited with.

Ultimately, what 'Agent Kim Reactivated' left with viewers was not just flashy action. It was the sense of responsibility, loneliness, and unconditional love that fathers in this era carry.

Starting with a 9.5% viewership rating, 'Agent Kim Reactivated' broke into the 15% range by episode 2, rose to 21.6% in episode 4, and peaked at 23.1% in episode 8, securing its place as one of the top hits of 2026. The drama, which maintained both viewership and buzz until the end, has added another name to So Ji-sub's legacy of representative works.

The rebellion of the 'glasses-wearing men' has ended, but the message that an ordinary father can be the strongest hero is expected to remain in viewers' memories for a long time.
