The action-packed crime film is a spin-off of the popular TV series "Bad Guys", which was aired in 2014.

"In the film, I play the role of a female trickster who has five previous convictions. It was a male character in the original TV series, which actually tempted me to challenge myself with the role", Kim said at a press event in Seoul on Monday. "I had to do a lot of action scenes, but it was very fun shooting it".

The film deals with a story of bad guys who try to catch even worse guys.

The film is scheduled for release around Chuseok or Korean Thanksgiving, which falls in early September this year.
