By Cherry Sun

Mon Confiado teases his followers as the character actor is set to appear in a Korean movie along with Kim Sang-ho, more recently known for his portrayal on the Netflix series, Kingdom, and other Korean stars.

Mon has been working on an action-adventure-crime film titled The Golden Holiday under the helm of Director Kim Bong-han. He also co-stars with Kwak Do-won, Kim Dae-myung, Kim Hee-won, Shin Dong-mi, and Lee Yoo-jin-I.

He shared the synopsis, saying, “The first family trip to the Philippines turns into an investigation of local murder case surrounding 'Yamashita's Gold'. A laid-back countryside detective Byung-su (Kwak Do-won) takes his family to the Philippines for his 10th wedding anniversary. In fact, his hidden agenda is to track down his old friend Yong-bae (Kim Sang-ho) who scammed him and got away a few years ago. In Manila, Byung-su finds Yong-bae in prison for murder, and hears about the case surrounding 'Yamashita's Gold'. Swayed by a share of the Gold that Yong-bae offers, Byung-su suddenly becomes embroiled in the case.”
