'The Informant' starring Heo Sung Tae, is now showing exclusively at Ayala Malls Cinemas!

We are starting the year right with a new action-comedy film under A-Reels Asia!

Presented by Ayala Malls Cinemas under A-Reel Asia, the 2025 Korean blockbuster The Informant is igniting the big screens this February!

Actor Heo Sung Tae, Squid Game’s breakout star, is taking center stage in this buddy-cop explosive action-comedy film. Heo Sung Tae has since caught global recognition for his remarkable villainous turn in the worldwide hit series Squid Game. And now, in the film The Informant, he brings his impeccable acting range to a completely different, very entertaining role as Detective Oh Namhyuk.

Detective Oh Namhyuk is a once-promising police officer whose career fell after a disastrous operation. Now, burned out and wanting redemption for himself, he hatches a risky comeback plan using an informant he planted inside a notorious smuggling syndicate. But things got out of control. Detective Oh and his unlikely partner suddenly find themselves in an even more chaotic, larger-than-life conspiracy filled with high-speed chases, slapstick comedy, emotional highs, and unexpected twists—the perfect formula for the ultimate Korean cinema fans can’t get enough of.
