Choi Young Jin
(Kim Hee Ae) is the squad head of her police squad, and close friend to the
captain Park Jong Ho (Kim Min Jong). She is good
at her job, and deals with some of the most brutal cases in the police station,
but is also a single mother to her 6-year-old daughter, who is being taken care
of by her aunt; Young Jin’s younger sister.
When her chief and
even higher ‘higher-ups’ want to make an innocent man go to jail, so the story
about the actual murder can be hushed down, as it involves some politicians,
Young Jin becomes furious and wants to fix I, but the entire situation, as well
as her job, gets complicated, and she resigns.
Two years later,
Young Jin now has much more free time and spends much of her time with her
daughter. Though she misses her work, she is unable to tell her sister and
daughter. That is until Jong Ho asks her to return: she is made the head of a
special task force that is to uncover the murder of a young girl. And she is
joined with 5 other members, whom all are a tad more different than the usual
detectives…
Hmm, I am not
content with my summary, but I think I covered most of it.
This drama is one
of the funniest and coolest police dramas I have seen, and it’s not all that
amazingly made. On a Korean crime/police/action rate, this one is up there with
IRIS (the first one) and Phantom. I enjoyed almost every single bit of it, and
the couple in the drama were one of my favorites in the year of 2015. Even
though they had little romance, their chemistry was incredible – and funny! Or
rather my type of funny… Just enough without being ridiculous (I’ve heard
complaints about my humor… So you might not agree on it being a comedy). I liked
all characters to be honest and I found the storyline good to. So hell year
recommendable!
