upbeat nice drama
whats so good about this drama is that as the episodes go on they get alot more interesting regarding character development and the plot gets stronger and deeper,things developed from upbeat to tragic smoothly until he ended solving his own case .when i started watching i thought the hyung is such a huge vibe i needed someone like this in my life (but since I've seen this before i knew right away that he's too good to be true because writers love to screw things up )
i'm sorry but , Who ever did jin isoo styling deserve a punch in the face his fashion is bad where do they even find those shirts .
since i watched the first two episodes i thought it was on the less mature side and not to My taste maybe but for younger viewers ,i love the versatility of the stories and Characters .
they could've picked someone else to be the Main actress i find her unsatisfying. (my point of view though)

An amazing show with amazing Leads!!
I loved this show so much. everything about it is perfect. literally zero flaws. our main lead character is amazing. he is rich yet he is not arrogant. he knows what he is capable and not insecure. our female lead who is little bit cold but as the plot goes on you will find her so wholesome. i would rate this plot 10/10. each week there was a new case which kept me interested and wanting to watch more and more. comedy aspect of this show is really good too. our main leads gave us a good laugh. ????many people did not liked female lead in the beginning. but as you watch it you will understand more about her and trust me by the end you’ll love her!!
i’m so glad there is a season where we can expect to see more cases and romance between two leads ?
for me this is a 10/10 drama. i had so much fun watching. definitely in my top 10 list.

I just finished Flex X Cop and would advise people to check logic at the door because this is an entertaining watch as long as one doesn’t think too hard about it. For example, instead of wondering in what universe police would throw someone into a case with zero prior training (just imagine the potential liability), I would enjoy instead the protagonist’s fish out of water fumbling and his gradual acceptance by his peers. I had been underwhelmed by Bo Hyung Ahn as an actor in “See You My 19th Life,” but I’ve completely changed my mind after seeing him in this drama. He really sold his character and his story. I also thought that Park Ji Hyun, who plays the female lead, was good. The ending left A LOT of loose ends. I heard recently that there will be a second season, which explains all of the dangling threads.

Flex x Cop it's a must watch
"Flex x Cop" is a captivating KDrama that seamlessly blends action, drama, and suspense, creating an addictive viewing experience. With a gripping storyline full of unexpected twists, viewers are kept on the edge of their seats. The well-developed characters, each with their own depth and complexity, draw viewers into their lives and struggles. The palpable chemistry between the lead actors adds an extra layer of excitement to the series, making it a must-watch for any KDrama enthusiast.Was this review helpful to you?
Well Paced Story for a Casual Watch
It has been awhile since I enjoyed a good Dectective show. And I think Flex X Cop did somewhat hit the spot for me. It was an easy watch and I must compliment the Script for not over-staying on a particular plot - story kept developing what made it interesting for the viewer. I also liked the concept of JYS and I thought ABH played him to perfection - with that slightly naive touch. PJH did decently well for me and her chemistry with ABH clearly showed, through all their past work together. Side cast also provided good comedic relief, though very few were actually delved into. Main gripe for me was how painfully obvious the culprit was. I was praying for a plot twist at the end but unfortunately, it is how it is.Overall, still a good and easy drama to watch - the comedy and the cast's chemistry provided good vibes throughout. Excited for Season 2 but I do hope we get more well thought out cases.

IT'S NOT OVER YET......
The first season surprised me on several levels. It was a drama that had no episodes without importance or dragging. The whole story had good dynamics and followed a well-defined course. I always appreciate dramas that use episodes 15 and 16 to conclude the story. Most dramas use episode 16 for conclusions full of amenities and frivolities. However, FlexXCop used it differently, dosing its story effectively in 16 good episodes. It is a drama that deserves the success it achieved in South Korea and has the energy and potential for its second season, which I believe will only be released in 2026.
I liked the villain built in a complex way and shaped by the ambitions and neuroses of his mother, brought to us by Shi Yang with his character Seung Joo. This drama has a high level of quality and deserves only praise, there is nothing to criticise.

Absolutely Enjoyed this Series
This is absolutley one of the better Kdrama's I have ever watched and simpy the best show of 2024 so far. Periodt! Great cast and characters, good plot and mostly good writing. A few things annoyed me but overall a genuinely good show. I loved the cases they worked on and I loved the teamwork. The balance of comedy and drama was done so well in this series.Ahn Bo Hyun as Jin Isoo is perfect casting. The character could have been annoying but he was sweet, loveable and so damn likeable. Literally one of my favorite characters ever and his characater growth was phenomenal.
The show was a solid 10 for me but unfortunately the cliche villian trope was just so unnecesary and that's really the biggest negative I have about the series. Most of the writing was good but this and a few other inconsistent, nonsensical things is the reason I took that point away!! I would still rewatch this though and I rarely rewatch any shows.

Thoroughly Enjoyed, Waiting for season 2.
Just finished watching the last episode, and I’m so ready for a second season. This show it was amazing I mean each character had their own story. It was fully thoroughly shown throughout each episode the storyline flowed very smoothly. Everything wasn’t so predictable like some K dramas could be, I love the action I love the actors the cast was just amazing the direction of each scene it was just great. Female Lead was just awesome ?. I wish it was more episodes , but no issues .. eagerly waiting for season 2.Was this review helpful to you?
Overused plot
Don't get me wrong, this series was one of my most anticipated releases for this year but it kind of disappointed me. Maybe this show is not my cup of tea but the storywriters are just being lazy. They could have given us a better storyline by making the stepmother of Isoo not one of the bad guys. This plot, this character is being overused and stereotypical. But still love the bond between him and his brother. One thing I am irritated with is the attitude of the FL. Ik that she is harsh on him because she perceives him as just a rich kid enjoying Papa's money but her character could have been executed and written better. She is not being 'bold' by being rude for no reason. Also, I can't feel anything from her character like her expressions are just not giving the vibe that the character she is playing in this series should give. On the other hand, I think that Ahn Bo-hyun did the right job by playing this character. He gives off good energy and vibes. Every scene containing him is exciting so rather than adding a romance sub-plot with this terrible FL, increase his screentime and make this a show only for him instead.Was this review helpful to you?

The Editing is horrible
Whoever did the editing for the series - should go back to editing school, and if it was director's decision.... Why? 왜?The sudden cuts to the black halts the flow of the story, if it would happen only few times an episode to show that it took prolonged time between the scenes or something, I could understand it, but now
every
scene
ends
and
stars
with
a
black
cut
Somebody needs to relearn Cinematic language (when you want to break the rules, first you need to understand them and why they are how they are). The cuts not only take away the visuals but audio as well, which is even more jarring. There is a saying among filmmakers - "the most important part of the cinema is sound". The cuts to the black (and to the silence) should Have some value to the overall story, but now they are just... there.
These unnecessary cuts:
* take the audience away from the story ("Wait, what happened? Oh, we're back. Ok... What? It happened again? ... Oh, again? I guess I will check my phone then.")
* halts the story itself, the story should build up during the episode like a chart going slightly up, however with the cuts, the story always needs to start from the ground up: /\/\/\/\
I can skip uninteresting parts of the series, I can suspend my disbelieve with certain unbelievable things, I can enjoy the humour and good acting. However, I Cannot make myself go through the sudden STOP signs, which suddenly kick me out through the front window onto the pavement.

WOW JUST WOW - BEST KDRAMA OF THIS YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This was amazing, Ahn Bo Hyun will never disappoint you. He is my favorite actor and this one was just wow. The plot, acting and everything else was just chef's kiss. I waited for this ever since news that Ahn Bo Hyun was starring in it, was released. No matter how much homework I had due I never missed an episode. This was just so amazing and intriguing. The chemistry between all the actors was so good, no other cast could have done better. I have watched every k-drama that Ahn Bo Hyun had a main role in and his role in all of them were amazing. You can trust that anything he stars in will be good.Was this review helpful to you?
