It’s wholesome to watch them go from a hate-love trope to hate-love but… in a more buddy-cop and likable manner. Obviously, misunderstandings get cleared up and they eventually find out the other’s real identity. The two cross paths in real life when Sun Ho unknowingly sabotages a critical case Dong Man is working on - which inevitably leads to bad blood between them. Though they two have never met, they develop a brotherly bond over their chats. While he was working as a detective, he often went on the dark web under the moniker “Bird” and chatted with a former hacker, enter Kang Sun Ho, with the alias “Yoon” who would help provide information on cases he was working on. In the midst of an investigation that went wrong, he was sent to the university to teach as a form of punishment. Professor Yoo Dong Man is a detective with 20 years of experience in criminal homicide and cyber investigation. Viewers can journey alongside these undercover police officers as they tackle the life experiences and mental issues that come with the job.Photo: Viu A compelling bromance plot with solid banter
