South Korea's first female violent crimes unit chief and drama 'drama' Signal's Kim Hye-soo, and 'Hit' Ko Hyun-jung character's real-life model, legendary investigator Park Mi-ok, will make a sudden entry onto the entertainment stage.
Tcast E Channel 'Brave Detective 5' will add a new segment, 'Unfinished case Q', starting with episode 17 airing on the 21st, and will welcome former detective Park Mi-ok as a fixed panelist. 'Unfinished case Q' is a talk-format segment in which experts connect their own cases related to the day's topic and discuss them, a corner that closely examines criminal psychology and the inner lives of those involved in cases.
Former detective Park Mi-ok, South Korea's first female violent crimes unit chief who worked the field for more than 30 years, is expected to raise the program's immersion with vivid, on-the-scene experience and a deep perspective.
Ahead of the first broadcast, former detective Park Mi-ok said in a written interview that she felt that whenever she watched crime programs, there was a need for the next story beyond punishment-focused opinions, and that she agreed with the intent to take one step further and ask the necessary questions, so she decided to join.
She added that the episode she found particularly impressive was the Gapyeong valley murder case episode, saying it was impressive how it closely examined the gaps in gaslighting and insurance fraud crimes. She said she is personally very interested in the damage to values caused by psychological domination and the causes of moral distortion.
Regarding chemistry with MC Ahn Jung-hwan and profiler Kwon Il-yong, she said that although it felt unfamiliar during the first recording, Ahn Jung-hwan led it comfortably, and because she and profiler Kwon Il-yong had exchanged knowledge in the field, she kept becoming curious. She said that her role is to talk about the questions and human anguish she felt as a detective, conveying a special sense of responsibility.
Asked, "The public seems to see you as having an image of a 'strong and tough character.' What do you think about that?", she replied, "On the scene, detectives have no gender distinction except when operationally necessary. Having lived as a detective for more than 30 years, I am someone who has already formed my own character. I think a person's career and life are like an identity built up moment by moment."
Looking back on more than 30 years as a detective, recalling anecdotes with the escaped convict Shin Chang-won and memories of dedicating effort to investigations into serial sexual crimes and missing person cases, former detective Park Mi-ok also left viewers a warm message: she wants to share stories of understanding and coexistence rather than stigma and hatred.<
