The action movie "A Bona fide killer" is a work that blends family, action and investigation elements, telling the story of a woman who has to balance between everyday life and the world's most dangerous job.
In the movie, Gong Hyo Jin plays Yu Bo Na - a saleswoman at an electronics company. Outwardly, she is an office worker and a normal mother. However, Yu Bo Na is also "Kingfisher" - a legendary killer specializing in chasing criminals to escape punishment by the law.
After maternity leave, Yu Bo Na returns to work and continues to perform secret tasks, opening up a series of dramatic situations when she has to keep her identity secret from her family.
Jung Jun Won plays Kwon Tae Sung - Yu Bo Na's husband. He is an investigative reporter for a newspaper, famous for his righteous spirit and willingness to pursue thorny cases.
Notably, Kwon Tae Sung was once in charge of reporting on "Kingfisher" and gradually approached the secrets related to this organization, causing him to inadvertently face the risk of discovering his wife's true identity.
Meanwhile, Lee Sang Yi transforms into inspector Lee Dong Jin - who is determined to pursue "Kingfisher" at all costs. Unlike the characters who choose to punish criminals themselves, Lee Dong Jin believes that justice must be enforced through the law.
Sung Dong Il plays Kim Bong Pal - the sales team leader at Yu Bo Na's company. Although people nicknamed him "Bong Ngoc" because of his gentle personality, this character actually possesses rich combat experience and always silently protects the female lead.
According to the production team, the film will combine a close family atmosphere and action scenes chasing criminals. This is also considered a notable transformation of Gong Hyo Jin when the actress first tries her hand at the image of a killer with a clear action color.
A Bona fide killer" is scheduled to air on MBC next July.
