2. Seoul Busters
The police force is known for maintaining order, often navigating themselves through chaos and unpredictability. In Seoul Busters, the Songwon Homicide Division has a reputation of its own – and it’s not a nice one! Known for their mediocre performance, this team is known for doing as little as possible. That all changes when they get a new captain, the ambitious, charismatic Dongbang Yu-Bi. As he meets his team of quirky and unmotivated detectives, it becomes clear that turning this division into a well-oiled machine demands patience, creativity, and a hefty dose of humour!
Join him on this laugh-out-loud journey filled with unexpected challenges, as the balance between order and disorder unfolds in the most entertaining way possible.
