The new film "The Informant" has thrown its hat into the ring for the year-end box office, with its release scheduled for December 3.
On October 16, NSE&M, a comprehensive entertainment company, announced that "The Informant," which features distinctive, intense action and in-depth portrayals of diverse human characters, is set to make a powerful impression on the year-end cinema scene.
This latest offering from NSE&M is being praised as a highly accomplished espionage action film, combining advanced filming technology, a solid screenplay, and stellar performances from renowned actors such as Heo Sungtae and Cho Bokrae.
The film was invited as the opening feature at the New York Asian Film Festival in July 2023, where it held its world premiere and received enthusiastic applause and acclaim from local audiences.
NSE&M plans to target not only the domestic market but also audiences across Asia and globally with this film. The seamless integration of cutting-edge special effects and high-level action scenes is cited as one of the film's major strengths, maximizing its overall quality.
The movie delivers a rich emotional experience to viewers through its suspenseful plot, intricate character relationships, and authentic performances. Additionally, its original plot and striking visuals-rarely seen in conventional espionage action films-are heightening anticipation even further.
An NSE&M representative stated, "The release of 'The Informant' is highly significant for our company in terms of diversifying our content business and securing future growth engines. We are committed to showcasing a deeper narrative and high-quality action not only to domestic audiences but also to viewers worldwide, thereby strengthening our global competitiveness."
Meanwhile, "The Informant" was filmed in 2023 and is a comedic buddy movie about the chaotic partnership between an incompetent, self-serving detective (Heo Sungtae) and a highly skilled, streetwise informant (Cho Bokrae). The screenplay and direction are by Kim Seok, who debuted with the award-winning short film "Humanist" at the 2008 CJ Young Festival.
