Premiering on August 7, SBS's new Friday-Saturday drama "Flex X Cop 2" (written by Kim Ba-da, directed by Kim Jae-hong) is a delightful, refreshing, and satisfying cooperative investigation drama. In the series, Jin Yi-su (Ahn Bo-hyun), a chaebol detective who uses his wealth to turn the tables when investigations stall, teams up with new team leader Joo Hye-ra (Jung Eun-chae) to flash their cash. The show is drawing attention as a key pillar of the SBS refreshing universe, following hits like "Taxi Driver", "The Fiery Priest", and "The Judge from Hell", and as a highly anticipated work that will cheerfully kick off SBS's reliable seasonal drama lineup for 2026.
On July 24, the production team of "Flex X Cop 2" dropped the third teaser video, capturing more sophisticated crimes and the mysterious moves of new character Yoo Sung-won (Yoo Seung-ho).
This teaser creates an intense tension that contrasts with the previous cheerful atmosphere. In particular, the chilling demeanor of Yoo Sung-won, who is newly appearing this season, grabs attention. The sight of Yoo Sung-won wearing a blank smile with bloodstains, along with the fleeting line "The worst thing I've ever done? It's a secret", maximizes curiosity about what kind of conflict he will form with the investigation team led by Yi-su.
Following this, Jin Yi-su sharply rebukes the criminals by saying, "I sent you to prison to become human, but you came back as trash," while new team leader Joo Hye-ra radiates cold charisma, exuding veteran detective vibes.
Amid increasingly bizarre murder cases, such as a mummy found inside a carrier, and the madness of more ferocious villains, Yi-su and Hye-ra face consecutive crises. However, the scene where they overturn the tables by mobilizing all their wealth and investigative power while declaring, "The perfect crime? There's no such thing" promises a satisfying thrill for viewers.
Returning with a larger scale and heightened suspense, "Flex X Cop 2" will premiere on Friday, August 7, at 9:50 PM following "Agent Kim Reactivated".
