When I sat down in 2022 to watch the 2017 South Korean action drama "Gongjo" (aka "Confidential Assignment"), I hadn't heard about the movie or seen any trailer. So I didn't really have any expectations to writers Inkyun Lee, Eunsook Kim and Yoon Hyun Ho.
The storyline was actually interesting and well-written. And I found the storyline to be entertaining from start to end, so the writers definitely put together something wholesome for director Kim Sung-Hoon to bring to life on the screen. I do like movies where you have South and North Korea working together in the story.
There is a good amount of action and some suspense throughout the course of the movie, but also some nice character development as well. But the movie also have some moments of light humor, which are nicely used to break up the tension from the action and suspense.
The movie was starring Hyun Bin, Hae-Jin Yoo and Ju-Hyuk Kim, and they were quite nicely cast for the movie. In fact, all actors and actresses in the movie actually put on good performances and brought their characters to life nicely on the screen.
If you enjoy action dramas, then "Gongjo" is well worth sitting down to watch. And while the movie runs for 124 minutes, it doesn't feel that long.
My rating of "Gongjo" lands on a six out of ten stars.
