Two Cops is a romantic-comedy starring Jo Jung-suk, Lee Hye-ri and Kim Seon-ho. The drama is aired every Monday and Tuesday at 22:00 (KST) on MBC. It revolves around a dedicated crime detective who gets possessed by the soul of a sleazy con artist. To add more fury, he falls in love with a rookie reporter.

Another drama 'Nothing to Lose' narrates the tale of a short-tempered rookie judge Lee Jung-Joo (Park Eun Bin) whose brother is framed for a murder and then killed. She then teams up with perfectionist Sa Ui-Hyun (Yeon Woo-Jin) to bring out the truth. Jang Joon-seo (Jin Goo) plays the role of a detective squad chief and the second son of the powerful Jang clan in 'Untouchable.' While chasing after his wife's murderers, he unwraps the dark secrets and power battle between the Jang family members.

And finally, 'Doubtful Victory' is about Il Seung(Kyun Sang), who was wrongly accused of a murder and imprisoned for ten years. One day he manages to break out of prison and ends up as a fake detective. His mission now is to find out a hidden stash of 100 billion KRW for a mafia group who in-turn will supply him with a new identity. And he just has three days to complete the task.
