"Cooperation 2" Hyun Bin x Yuhan x Daniel Henney will team up with detectives from North and South Korea and the U.S.

Osen | Input 2020.08.26 19:11

[OSEN: Reporter Kim Bo-ra] The movie "Confidential Assignment" team is aiming for a two-hit success. Released in January 2017, "Confidential Assignment" was a box office hit, mobilizing 7.81 million people.

The production team of "Confidential Assignment 2" (director Lee Seok-hoon, distribution CJ ENM, and production JK Film) started the box office by casting Daniel Henney along with actors Hyun Bin and Yoo Hae-jin who starred in the first film.

"Confidential Assignment 2" is a sequel to the 2017 movie "Confidential Assignment" (director Kim Sung-hoon). The movie is about a joint investigation between Lim Chul-ryeong (played by Hyun Bin) and Kang Jin-tae (played by Yoo Hae-jin), a North Korean detective who was from a elite military unit, to catch the North's criminal organization hiding in the South. The second installment will feature a joint inter-Korean and U.S. joint investigation.

It has been confirmed by OSEN's report on Wednesday that Daniel Henney is considering appearing positively after receiving a recent proposal. Daniel Henney was reportedly offered the role of an American detective.

Director Lee Seok-hoon is currently writing a scenario, and the actors are considering appearing before receiving the final version.

Attention is focusing on what kind of character Daniel Henney will bring to life in the play, as he will meet Hyun Bin, who is masculine and warm, and Yoo Hae-jin, who shows his unique and friendly charm with his solid acting skills. It is expected that the team play of detectives from South and North Korea and the U.S. will show bromance that crosses tension and laughter.

Director Lee Seok-hoon, who was in charge of screenwriting and directing films such as "Himalaya" (2015), "Pirate" (2014), "Dancing Queen" (2012) and "Rooftop" (2006), will take the megaphone.

Along with Hyun Bin and Yoo Hae-jin, the production team is preparing a reunion with actors such as Jang Young-nam, Lee Dong-hwi, Yoona and Gong Jeong-hwan, who appeared in the first episode.

Yoona, Return to Chungmu with 'Cooperation 2' "Positive Review"...from supporting role to leading role

Date of publication: August 28, 2020

Actress Yoona has begun reading the beginning of her comeback with "Cooperation 2."

It has been confirmed that Yoona is considering positively after receiving a proposal to play the heroine of the movie "Confidential Assignment 2" (directed by Lee Seok-hoon, produced by JK Film), which will be cranked in next year. An official from CJ ENM, an investment distributor, said, "The story is going smoothly after Yoon-ah's proposal to appear," and Yoon-ah's side also said, "We are positively considering participating in 'Confidential Assignment 2'."

It is expected that Yoona's appearance will expand significantly in the sequel and become a heroine. She has already established a solid foothold in the drama market, but she has claimed to be a supporting actor in "Confidential Assignment," which was released in 2017. However, despite her small amount of appearances, her unique comic acting earned her a strong impression from the audience.

Yoona's joining of "Confidential Assignment 2" can also be seen as a "Boeun" decision. Yoona, who was recognized for her acting skills and potential in Chungmuro through the first episode, became the heroine of the movie "Exit" released last year, attracting 9.42 million viewers and becoming the "Entertainment Guarantee Cheque." Since then, she has received a number of love calls for her next work, but after carefully choosing his next work, she is likely to return to Chungmuro through "Confidential Assignment 2" after finishing the JTBC drama "Hershey," which will air in the second half of the year.

Another CJ ENM official said, "Yoona collected more than 17 million people through 'Confidential Assignment' and 'Exit', which were invested and distributed by CJ ENM." These days, she is an actress in Chungmu-ro who is "the number one extracurricular" and said, "The character of 'Exit' who abandoned her existing innocent image is a confirmed version of the character built through 'cooperation'. "Cooperation 2" will show more chemistry with actor Hyun Bin, who plays the role of Lim Chul-ryung, a North Korean detective who came to the South for a joint investigation again, he said.

In addition to the main characters of the first movie, Hyun Bin and Yoo Hae-jin, Daniel Henney will be joined by FBI investigators.

"Confidential Assignment 2" Confirmed to Be in the Works

By William Schwartz on 2020/08/31 at 19:29 PST

The hit 2017 movie "Confidential Assignment" now has a confirmed sequel in development. "Confidential Assignment" starred Hyun Bin as a North Korean investigator and Yoo Hae-jin as his South Korean equivalent as they attempt to track down an advanced counterfeiting machine. The buddy cop movie scored nearly eight million viewers at the South Korean box office. While there's been sequel speculation ever since, it was only in the last few days the movie's existence was confirmed.

While Hyun Bin and Yoo Hae-jin have received offers, though their participation has not been confirmed. While there's no public plot outline at present, the idea for a sequel seems reasonably detailed behind the scenes. "Yoona", for example, has also been confirmed for receiving an offer, though her role in "Confidential Assignment" was relatively small, playing a family member of Yoo Hae-jin's character who expresses romantic interest in Hyun Bin's character.

An entirely new cast member whose name has come up in connection with "Confidential Assignment 2" is Daniel Henney. His character has been described as an FBI agent who collaborates with the two existing characters in regards to the new story's investigation.

Director Kim Seong-hoon-III of "Confidential Assignment" will not be returning, with the director for "Confidential Assignment 2" slated to be Lee Seok-hoon, whose last movie was "The Himalayas" back in 2015.

Yoo Hae-jin still finds each film set ‘new’

From sidekick to leading man, actor Yoo Hae-jin still finds film sets difficult after 24 years

By Rumy Doo

The public perception of actor Yoo Hae-jin has changed over the years.

In the early years of his career, he was regarded primarily as a comical sidekick before being recognized as a colorful supporting actor in Korean cinema.

Last year, Yoo nabbed his first lead role after 24 years in show business. He starred in the action-comedy flick “Luck-Key” as an assassin-turned-struggling actor, and the film was a box office success here, selling over 6.5 million tickets and marking a breakthrough for Yoo.

“I think people see the best of you (when you’re on screen). The best scenes are shown in the edited version,” said Yoo humbly at an interview Thursday at a cafe in Samcheong-dong.

This year, Yoo returns as both the lead and trusty sidekick in “Confidential Assignment,” which is also an action-comedy film about two investigators from both sides of the Korean Peninsula.

Hyun Bin plays a disciplined North Korean investigator who trained in the country’s rigorous special forces, while Yoo portrays an unmotivated South Korean cop who is struggling under the burden of work and family.

“But it doesn’t go too seriously into issues of ideology,” Yoo said. “The focus is on sharing emotions.”

Yoo is drawn to films that have a human element. He is interested more in the “little things” that make characters’ relationships come to life on screen than on grand notions.

In a scene in “Confidential Assignment,” Yoo’s character tells his daughter off for sitting on the lap of a stranger.

“Little actions like that aren’t essential to the plot, but it makes you believe that they’re a family. Finding those things are part of the fun of acting.”

Yoo first fell in love with his craft after watching a play in middle school. Despite the opposition of his conservative parents, he matriculated to the Seoul Institute of the Arts. Since then, he has found his footing as one of Korean cinema’s top character actors, through roles in films such as “King and the Clown,” “Small Town Rivals,” “The Unjust,” “Minority Opinion,” “Veteran” and “Public Enemy.”

“But there are things that I can never get used to. I’ve done a lot of movies,” said the prolific Yoo who has starred in over 50 films. “Each set, each character, each environment is different. It feels new every time and it is always difficult.”

Now, at age 47, Yoo said he sometimes seems to be clutching onto energy that keeps slipping away. Through he was more “unstable” as a budding actor, “there was a great energy,” said Yoo. “Everything was so exciting. I woke up excited, I ate meals excited … every action on every set was exciting.”

“When I’m not working, my day is very simple. Some would say boring. I exercise, read a few scripts, have a drink at night. That’s it.”

He trekked up a mountain near his home in the morning before the interview, Yoo said, pulling out a selfie he had taken at the summit.

“I like hiking and running alone,” he said on his exercise routine. “If I go with other people, there’s always something that’s inconvenient. You have to wait for them to arrive on time. You have to make conversation even when you’re out of breath. It’s been quite a while that I’ve been running alone.”

“Confidential Assignment” hits local theaters Wednesday.
