Ahn Bo-hyun joins Park Ji-hyun as Flex x Cop
by lovepark
The newest teaser for SBS’s Flex x Cop introduces its man-child protagonist Ahn Bo-hyun (See You in My 19th Life) as third-generation chaebol Jin Yi-soo. While on duty as part of the SWAT team, Yi-soo apprehends a man who turns out to be a murderer, and his older brother Kwak Shi-yang (Cafe Minamdang) seizes this opportunity to turn him into a cop. Of course, no one expects much from Yi-soo, and his older brother tells him to treat it like a game.
His unorthodox recruitment draws heavy criticism from his new team leader Lee Kang-hyun, played by Park Ji-hyun (Reborn Rich), who sees him as an unqualified brat just waiting to cause trouble. Despite her grievances, Yi-soo joins her team, and with detectives Park Jun-young and Choi Kyung-jin — played by Kang Sang-jun (True to Love) and Kim Shin-bi (Revenant) respectively — our new detective gets ready for his first major case.

Though Kang-hyun tells Yi-soo that their job is different from the movies, he disagrees. Pointing out all the similarities, he thinks being a cop is all about catching criminals and performing cool stunts. Contrary to his flashy suits and overconfidence, Yi-soo gets beaten during a raid and dangles in the sky after jumping out of a window.
However, whatever Yi-soo lacks in training, he makes up for with his background, and he promises to use all his money to catch those who break the law. If he can’t solve cases the traditional way, an expensive watch and a bag of cash might do the trick. Maybe being rich is bad news in other detective dramas, but in this one, Yi-soo is the chaebol out to get other chaebols — bad guys beware.
Written by Kim Ba-da (My Name) and directed by PD Kim Jae-hong (Revenant, Through the Darkness), SBS’s Flex x Cop premieres January 26 in the Friday-Saturday slot.
