The film 'Humint', confirmed to be released in Korea on February 11, 2026, has released its international poster and first trailer. Directed by Ryoo Seung-wan, 'Humint' tells the story of individuals with different purposes clashing in Vladivostok, where secrets and truths are buried in the cold icy sea. Previously, the first poster and launch trailer were released, making 'Humint' a highly anticipated film for the 2026 Lunar New Year holiday. The newly released international poster features a tense moment of National Intelligence Service agent Chief Cho (Cho In-sung), who has garnered global attention with his role. The poster vividly showcases Cho In-sung's new transformation, known for his exhilarating action in films like 'Escape from Mogadishu' and 'Smuggling 1970'. The first trailer reveals the expanded relationships of four characters: Chief Cho, a black agent tracking international crime; North Korean Ministry of State Security leader Park Gon (Park Jung-min), dispatched to Vladivostok; North Korean Consul Hwang Chi-sung (Park Hae-joon), who is wary of Park Gon; and Choi Sung-hwa (Shin Se-kyung), an employee at a North Korean restaurant who will come into contact with Chief Cho. The phrase 'clashing in Vladivostok' hints at the tension before a storm. 'Humint' is the third installment of Ryoo Seung-wan's overseas filming trilogy, following 'The Berlin File' and 'Escape from Mogadishu', showcasing the landscapes of Vladivostok through filming in Latvia. With the synergy of captivating actors like Cho In-sung, Park Jung-min, Park Hae-joon, and Shin Se-kyung, the film is set to captivate audiences at the start of 2026.
