The premise of MBC Mon-Tues drama Two Cops is interesting but for the fact that it borrows from so many elements of recent dramas I’m rather fatigued. Jo Jung Seok is a serious cop who ends up sharing a body with the soul of a swindler and together they end up solving more cases, all good but right now there’s the cop with a different soul drama going on over on cable with OCN‘s Black. Then there’s Hyeri as a hard hitting investigative report and immediately I think of Suzy‘s character in While You Were Sleeping, and well you get my drift. This feels like the early aughts when Hallyu dramas were all about incurable diseases and birth secret backstories, and for some reason I kinda want a throwback in that direction for nostalgia sake lol. Regardless I still plan to check out Two Cops, Jo Jung Seok playing two roles is too juicy to pass up!
Character Previews for Two Cops:
Ugh! Hyeri is just ruining this for me. Her visuals are the best she has had by far but they don’t cover up the lack of acting skills. But I think she’s still in the middle when it comes to idol actresses. That Reply role saved her. Before that she was just a side character in Hyde, Jekyll & Me
This is Hyeris best look. The hair and that sweater look suit her.
