‘Agent Kim Reactivated’ Episode 10 Release Date, Time, and What to Expect From the Finale
The countdown for ‘Agent Kim Reactivated’ has reached its final stretch. So Ji-sub’s black ops thriller is wrapping up its run this weekend, and fans are scrambling for exact times, streaming details, and finale predictions.
The Netflix and SBS series has become one of the summer’s most talked about K-dramas, and the last episode carries the weight of resolving Kim Do-hyeon’s mission and his relationship with his daughter. Here is everything confirmed so far about the release window and the story threads heading into the ending.
Episode 10 Release Date And Time
Episode 10 of ‘Agent Kim Reactivated’ is set to air on July 25 at 9:45 p.m. KST, closing out a season that has run on a Friday and Saturday schedule. The show airs every Friday and Saturday at 9:50 p.m. KST on SBS, with the finale slightly shifted earlier for its special broadcast slot.
For viewers outside South Korea, the episode is also landing on a major streaming platform the same day. The finale is scheduled for a July 25, 2026 release with Netflix listed as the distributing network. Indian audiences specifically can expect the episode to become available around 6:20 PM IST, according to regional streaming trackers monitoring the rollout.
Where to Watch the Finale
The finale will premiere on SBS TV in South Korea, with international viewers able to stream it on Netflix shortly after. This dual release pattern has held for the entire run, letting the drama build a same day global audience rather than staggering its international debut. MyDramaList confirms the series ran from June 26, 2026 through July 25, 2026, airing on Friday and Saturday nights, which lines up with the finale’s placement as the tenth and final chapter.
The show’s streaming success has been a major storyline in its own right this month. Coverage has noted that ‘Agent Kim Reactivated’ became Netflix’s number one non-English show worldwide, a milestone that has only added pressure and anticipation around how the story wraps up.
Recap of Episode 9 Before the Finale
Episode 9 left Kim Do-hyeon in a precarious position after a mission built around protecting a North Korean defector fell apart. Gang-chan exposed General Ri’s location to North Korean officials, and Mole Cricket announced that Do-hyeon had failed before ordering General Ri’s return to North Korea. That twist sent Do-hyeon scrambling for another way out while still trying to keep his daughter Min-ji safe from the fallout.
The episode also leaned heavily into action, something reviewers singled out as a departure from the show’s usual pacing. Episode 9 carried a 70 minute runtime and focused its action inside a single location, moving through corridor fights, a stairwell argument, and an elevator confrontation that all felt connected rather than choppy.
A standout moment saw Jin-cheol and Han-su make a lighthearted bet over who could take down more enemies, giving the tense hour a rare beat of humor among the show’s core trio.
Recaps of the episode also detailed the fractured alliances driving the finale setup. Jin-cheol and Han-su debated whether to pursue Kim after he left his phone behind and took Han-su’s instead, while Kim and Ri Eung Ryeong’s cars ultimately diverged at a forked road, splitting the group right before the season’s final hour.
What to Expect in the Finale
Production has teased that the last two episodes will not play it safe. The team behind ‘Agent Kim Reactivated’ stated that Manager Kim, Seong Han Soo, and Park Jin Chul would each unleash their own fighting styles in an all out battle, and promised that episodes 9 and 10 would include unexpected twists worth watching closely. That framing suggests the finale is not simply resolving loose threads quietly.
The build toward the ending has also included a menacing setup courtesy of the show’s antagonist. The preview for the back half of the season ends with Ju Gang-chan issuing a chilling threat, warning that anyone who harms him will see their children pay the price, a line that has fueled speculation Min-ji could face renewed danger before the credits roll.
Critics have also praised the lead performance carrying the emotional stakes into these final episodes. So Ji-sub has been called the ending master of the drama by outlets covering the season’s final stretch, a nod to his history of delivering memorable finales in past projects. Fans watching the last episode will likely be paying close attention to whether Do-hyeon finally secures a safe, quiet life with Min-ji, or whether the show delivers one last gut punch before the story closes.
With so many threads still hanging after episode 9, from Gang-chan’s threats to the fate of General Ri, how do you think ‘Agent Kim Reactivated’ will bring Do-hyeon and Min-ji’s story to a close tonight?
