no romance little to no romance

hi guys im looking for dramas mostly korean but chinese and japanese are fine too!!! 

what's important is to have friendship focused (great character interaction is a must) or just no romance happening  (or if the story is really good than little romance) and only from 2017 OR 2018!! 

(only from this two years bc i haven't been watching my new dramas)

I love detective stories, team investigating murders anything like that if you look at my list you will see what kind of stuff i watch 

but mostly here's a list what's important if even you can tick of one line with the compulsory no romance/no focus on the romance i would be happy to hear your recs 

so:

- good dialogues/character interactions 

-friends as family/team as family 

- mc with sad past 

- mc keeping secret from his family/friends/team 

- BFF relationship 

i don't ask for much pls tell me the good news there's a drama out there for me 

on another note we should really make a place for people who are bored with the romance stuff bc i feel alone lol 

@neo: i can't believe i haven't finished it that's definitely my bad,,,, thanks for reminding me?? you saved my life?? <3

Chief Kim - group of coworkers goes from disliking their new superior because he looks incompetent to developing friendship and helping each other. Literally 0 romance - instead it has bromance here and there, and you seem to like it. 

Uhm, that's hard. Really hard. I mostly watch dramas for romance, but I have been getting into the noir genre lately so I hope that's alright.

Suits is a remake of the American TV show but it has a charm of its own. The story is mostly about lawyers yet it still involves loads of cool crime and detective stuff. The partnership and 'bromance' between the 2 male leads is much admired and unique. And minimal, particle-size romance.

Cruel City is a mix really. It focuses a lot on the noir genre and the crime is quite really satisfying. However, on the flip side, it has romance. In my opinion, I think it is more about the bone-chilling and sinister underworld rather than a damsel-in-distress tale (oops I saw that you already watched it)

I'm also currently watching Love Me If You Dare which is a total psycho! It's ironic really since the drama hardly has any romance in it at all. 

Hope that helps ;)
