Get To Know Our New Favorite Detective Squad

 Make Way for Everyone’s New Favorite Squad: Chief Detective 1958's Unit 1.

A cow thief catcher, a crazy dog, a chief with a heart, a heavy lifter, and a uni grad. These are

the coolest police officers from Jongnam Station’s Unit 1.

A riot of witty lines from highly entertaining characters set in 1958 Seoul, South Korea, Chief

Detective 1958 is a fun series of crime-fighting and mystery solving. What’s most exciting about

this new K-drama – you will find yourself rooting for the characters and wishing you’re a part of

their cool squad.

Blame it on their confidence and finesse, the Unit 1 boys will make your Fridays and Saturdays

full of laughter and good memories. Now, let’s get to know them!

1.Park Yeonghan

Played by the enigmatic Lee Jehoon, Yeonghan is a small-town cop who moved to Seoul only to

be frustrated by the rampant corruption in and outside of the police force. Besides catching cow

thieves – all 96 of them – he spends his time devising clever ways to catch goons, including

using snakes to scare and catch them.

2. Kim Sangsun

He is called a ‘crazy dog’ – and who wouldn’t be if your co-workers turn out to be puppets of

your city's biggest criminal group? He may be quirky – he likes sleeping in closets and only

befriends puppies – but his head and heart are in the right place, and he definitely knows how to

fight! Portrayed by Lee Donghwi, Sangsun lends his experience and no-nonsense attitude to the

team.

3. Chief Yu Daecheon

A tortured police chief fighting a losing battle against corrupt colleagues and the city’s biggest

criminals, Chief Yu, played by Choi Dukmoon, is leading Jongnam Station’s Unit 1. The aboji of

Unit 1, he looks nonchalant on the outside, but a softie on the inside, going so far as to buy

Younghan, whom he just met, a brand new set of Seoul-appropriate clothes!

4. Jo Gyeonghwan

The additional member of Unit 1 came not in a polished uniform and mighty stance but in the

form of Gyeonghwan, an honest and strong market worker played by Choi Woosung. He may

not be the hero they expected but he’s definitely the hero they needed. We’re surely rooting for

our favorite rice-lifting fairy, ~kargador-turned-policeman~!

5.Seo Hojeong

We can’t help but feel the need to protect this baby at all costs! An intelligent and timid top

university graduate, Hojeong, played by Yoon Hyunsoo, has always dreamt of becoming a

police officer, even if it goes against his family’s wishes. As a newbie officer, Hojeong will learn

to balance his intelligence and courage to become the mighty character he has built up in his

head.

Get to know and have fun with these unlikely heroes as they rebuild the reputation of Jongnam

Station’s Unit 1, one solved case at a time. Tune in for the latest adventures of Chief Detective

1958's Unit 1, streaming every Friday and Saturday, on Disney Plus.
