On the July 17 episode of the SBS Friday-Saturday drama "Agent Kim Reactivated," the story followed Agent Kim as he returned home with MINJI.

On this day, Agent Kim and his friends rescued MINJI from the Special Task Bureau. While heading home, they were kidnapped by mysterious men. Joo Kang-chan, who did not know the true identity of Agent Kim, had ordered them to be brought to him.

Agent Kim and his friends systematically neutralized Joo Kang-chan's henchmen. After learning their identities, Agent Kim headed to the villa where Joo Kang-chan was holding MINJI captive.

Agent Kim asked his friends to look after MINJI, stating that he had unfinished business with Joo Kang-chan. Upon facing Agent Kim, Joo Kang-chan said, "I heard Manager Nam was taken down, so I thought it was some kind of trap or trick, but it wasn't. That is some impressive skill."

To this, Agent Kim asked, "Between the attempted cover-ups and the kidnapping, aren't you ashamed as a father?" Joo Kang-chan retorted, "I only did what I had to do as a father. We are no different. You also exercised all the power you had without seeing anything else just to find your daughter, and some people might have died in the process. Were you ashamed as a father then?"

Joo Kang-chan continued to mock Agent Kim, saying, "I will make you a good offer. Let's bury our bad blood and work under me. Would 100 million won a month be enough?" He added, "It is a sin for parents to be incompetent. What is the difference between having children when you have no ability and animals breeding? That is not parenting, it is abuse. Think carefully. What kind of father you will be for your daughter. I am showing you and your daughter mercy."

Hearing this, Agent Kim replied, "While coming here, I thought about what I should do with you. Now it is clear. For MINJI's sake, I will eliminate you," and proceeded to assault Joo Kang-chan.

Agent Kim persistently pursued and assaulted the fleeing Joo Kang-chan. However, at that moment, MINJI stopped him. Agent Kim ceased his rampage and said, "If you want to live, beg my daughter for forgiveness. With all your heart."

Joo Kang-chan then knelt before MINJI and Agent Kim, pleading, "I am sorry. I will apologize on behalf of our Hye-ri. Please forgive me with the same heart you have for raising your own daughter."

MINJI said, "Please turn yourself in, both you and Hye-ri," and Agent Kim looked at her with a satisfied expression before they returned home together.

Agent Kim celebrated MINJI's belated birthday. He then prepared for his separation from MINJI, as he had decided to surrender as promised to the Special Task Bureau.

MINJI asked, "Can't you just run away? If it is you, Dad, you could easily run away." Agent Kim shared his story, saying, "MINJI, I came from North Korea. I lived a very dangerous and rough life, but I changed after meeting your mother. I wondered if even someone like me could live a normal life."

When MINJI asked when they could meet again, Agent Kim predicted their future, saying, "I don't know. Maybe a very long time? Or perhaps we might not be able to see each other at all."

MINJI comforted him, saying, "Come back. I will wait. You can come back. You are my dad, so you can come back. I can wait alone. And I am not alone. You are not alone either, because you have me. I am okay. I can really, truly wait for you bravely on my own."

Agent Kim stated his conditions for surrender, asking the commander of the Cheonsan Unit to guarantee MINJI's safety. The commander accepted his conditions, saying, "Don't worry. I am a four-star general of the Republic of Korea."

Meanwhile, the end of the broadcast showed South Korean soldiers contemplating how to handle Agent Kim. Then, a scene was revealed where Agent Kim, having woken up from his sleep, was greeted by a North Korean soldier saying, "Welcome back to your homeland, 66," raising curiosity about what will unfold next.
