'Brother, Chat,' which was pre-released on Wavve, has received a great response, ranking 3rd in the Wavve entertainment category since its first episode and climbing to 1st place in the second episode.
As a spin-off that continues 'Brave Detectives', all eyes are on whether 'Brother, Chat' will carry on that legacy. In 'Brother, Chat', the detectives will reveal investigative behind-the-scenes stories that couldn't be shared in the main broadcast of 'Brave Detectives', including updated content on recent focused cases and unresolved cases under investigation, showcasing the real stories of the detectives.
In the first episode, Detective Kang Yoon-seok will unveil the behind-the-scenes process related to the case of the 'Jayu-ro Ghost,' the protagonist of a chilling urban legend that has vanished, and the background of the formation of the cold case investigation team, as well as examples of foreign criminals arrested based on tips. Additionally, it will share stories that everyone has been curious about but found it difficult to access, such as who takes the lead in the arrest process, what weapons can be carried, and the process of obtaining information.

From the incident that led to the crackdown on a nationwide pickpocketing organization to various methods used by pickpockets, it will draw on personal experiences. Moreover, it will reveal the humorous side of the detectives, sharing stories related to their meal spots and behind-the-scenes tales regarding promotions. Through this way, 'Brother, Chat' captivates attention by allowing viewers to hear the detectives' vivid tales and discussions about cases everyone has been curious about in a comfortable atmosphere.

Headed by the representative MC Kim Won-hee, known for their witty banter regardless of genre, along with rising star actor Han Sang-jin, and the icon of 'Brave Detectives' Profiler Kwon Il-yong, each brings their unique hosting skills and exceptional chemistry to lead 'Brother, Chat.'
Kim Won-hee showcases the real reactions of those around them regarding appearances in the spin-off 'Brother, Chat' of 'Brave Detectives,' demonstrating the instinct to chat without a breath due to the nature of web entertainment that requires various discussions in a short time, while leading the program with veteran composure.

Furthermore, Kim Won-hee and Han Sang-jin present a delightful chemistry as 'seniors and juniors,' bringing laughter.
