Thanks to word of mouth from audiences, Humint (director Ryu Seung-wan, distributed by NEW, produced by Oyu-naegang) has entered a long-running Orbit and has released stills capturing heart-stopping, maximum-tension moments.
Since its release, Humint has recorded steady word of mouth and high theater satisfaction and continues its box office race amid praise such as "action you have to see in a theater," "a traditional action film whose tension never lets up," and "the scale of the car chases and shooting scenes is overwhelming." Particularly, with strong support from audiences in their 40s and 50s and increased interest in special theaters, the film is solidifying its long-term run, and the newly released stills draw attention by presenting moments in which the film's tension is condensed.
Assistant director Cho (Zo In-sung) leans against a wall catching his breath, conveying an imminent, explosive sense of crisis and hinting at a tense situation. Next, Park Geon (Park Jeongmin), aiming a gun and staring at his opponent, captures a moment of cold decision that amplifies a distinct, chilling tension. Hwang Chi-seong (Park Hae-jun), taking a sniper position on a vehicle in the dark, foreshadows large-scale action tied to a shootout on an icy surface, raising expectations for an overwhelming sequence set against expansive outdoor locations. Finally, Chae Seon-hwa (Shin Sae-kyeong), gazing straight ahead with trembling eyes from inside a car, captures emotional nuance that is not lost amid violent events, showing that Humint possesses dramatic density beyond a simple action blockbuster.
Humint, a film that combines intense action with weighty sentiment, tells the story of people with different objectives clashing in Vladivostok, where secrets and truths are submerged in a cold sea of ice, and it is showing to acclaim in theaters nationwide.<
