Chaos, comedy, and unlikely camaraderie are all set for Husbands in Action, a fresh action comedy, now in production!
Husbands in Action centers on a high-stakes rescue mission with an unexpected twist: to save a woman from a ruthless criminal organization, her ex-husband Chung-sik and current husband Min-seok must set aside their past differences and work together.
Director Park Gyu-tae, fresh off the success of his recent comedy hit 6/45, brings his trademark blend of sharp wit and comedic timing to this film. With his signature humor and keen insight into the absurdities of life, Park expertly captures both the tension and hilarity that ensue when two opposites are forced into an uneasy partnership. Their mission becomes a race against time and a journey of self-discovery, trust, and unexpected camaraderie.
The versatile Jin Sun Kyu steps into the role of Chung-sik, a dedicated and relentless Drug Squad detective whose life takes a dramatic turn when, after finally capturing a notorious drug gang leader he’s been pursuing for years, he receives the shocking news of his ex-wife Si-nae’s kidnapping. His commitment to duty and loyalty propels him headlong into the rescue mission, even as old wounds and unresolved history threaten to complicate matters.
On the other side, celebrated actor Gong Myung portrays Min-seok, a gentle and mild-mannered veterinarian who might seem out of place in such a high-octane scenario. Yet when tragedy strikes his own home, his determination to save his wife is unwavering. Audiences are set to be delighted as these two contrasting characters—together in the film Extreme Job and now reunited on screen—navigate the unpredictable challenges of their joint mission with both heart and humor.
The cast is further bolstered by standout performances from other stellar actors. Kim Ji Suk is cast as Do-joon, the resourceful and tech-savvy leader of a new drug gang whose criminal ingenuity poses a formidable threat. In a parallel storyline of power struggles, Yoon Kyung-ho delivers a compelling performance as Yong-gang, a rival gang leader hell-bent on reclaiming his lost turf. Kang Hanna shines as Si-nae, the feisty and resilient kidnapped woman who refuses to be relegated to a mere damsel in distress, proving that resourcefulness and strength can prevail even in the darkest of circumstances. Adding further depth to the ensemble, Lee Da Hee transforms into Hye-ran, a key figure in the drug underworld and the formidable wife of Do-joon, whose layered performance promises to be as unpredictable as it is captivating.
Produced by TPS Company—known for pushing creative boundaries with films such as 6/45, Hard Hit, SEOBOK, and Fabricated City—Husbands in Action is shaping up to be a rollercoaster ride of quick-witted banter, explosive action sequences, and heartfelt character moments. The film’s dynamic blend of comedy and thriller elements is poised to keep audiences both laughing and on the edge of their seats.
With its exclusive premiere slated for Netflix, Husbands in Action is not just a film, but a celebration of unconventional partnerships and the unpredictable nature of human relationships.
