BOSS Japanese Dub Cast Revealed in New Visuals and Making-of Video
The Japanese dub cast is being sold as its own attraction, with dedicated visuals, a behind-the-scenes video, and a poster bonus tied to opening day, which puts marketing weight on the localized version of a film that already drew 2.44 million moviegoers in South Korea.

The Korean comedy BOSS, which drew 2.44 million moviegoers in South Korea and ranked fifth in annual box office revenue for 2025, has released new visuals and a making-of video of the Japanese dub cast, billed as "Black Monaki." The shots show Jin, Sakai Jr., Kenken, and Oyone in character. A 2WAY Clear Card pairing the original poster with the dubbed poster will be given to theatergoers from the October 23 opening day.
The film centers on three men with zero motivation, zero interest, and zero popularity after a charismatic boss dies: Seung-tae (Jung Kyung-ho) wants to be a chef, Gang-pyo (Park Ji-hwan) wants to be a tango dancer, and Pan-ho (Lee Kyu-hyung) wants to be liked. The Japanese dub cast's new visuals lean on contrast: Jin in a leopard-print shirt, Sakai Jr. with a cool smile, Kenken with a yakuza air, and Oyone unable to fully become a bad man. The making-of video shows the four loosening up between posed and comical shots, and the visitor bonus runs from opening day on October 23, in limited quantity.
