HUMINT, Information from a Single Human

HUMINT, information from a single human

2026's Korean spy thriller <HUMINT> depicts a multinational intelligence operation across Riga (Latvia), Seoul, and the DMZ. The military term HUMINT — human intelligence — is the title.

Riga Old Town night sequences are the core. Twenty-first-century spycraft unfolds where 12th-century Hanseatic buildings still stand.

Cooperation with the Latvian government enabled controlled shoots around the Freedom Monument and the Zeppelin Market — the first Korean film to shoot solo in Latvia.

Information is a person's heart. The weakest code there is.

What happened behind the scenes?

Zeppelin Market chase

A vast market built inside 1924 Zeppelin hangars. The 4 a.m. to 8 a.m. footage made the final cut.

Dongdaemun DDP sequence

Zaha Hadid's curved exterior architecture at night. Exclusive single-day use, drone + camera car running together.
