What Is Extra About?
The premise of Extra without spoilers.
Park Bong-soo, a perpetually minor‑role actor, finally lands a part as a prosecutor and receives a convincing fake badge. Over drinks with fellow actor Kim Wang‑gi, he jokes about being a real prosecutor—only to have strangers believe him. Encouraged, he assumes the role fully, using the deception to expose “social evils,” fund his own film, and chase justice, until the illusion inevitably unravels.
