The upcoming MBC drama Chief Detective 1958  dropped a character teaser. 

Set in an era of chaos, Chief Detective 1958 tells the story of Detective Park Young Han, who, unable to see human dignity being trampled upon, joins forces with three colleagues to shatter the corrupt authority.

Chief Detective 1958 is a prequel to Chief Inspector. The K-drama takes place in 1958 when Detective Park Young Han was appointed to Seoul.

Taxi Driver actor Lee Je Hoon portrays the young Park Young Han, a passionate young man who does not give in to corruption and remains unaffected by external pressures.  

The character teaser gives a sneak peek of Lee Je Hoon's transformation into young Park Young Han. 

It commences by showing Park Young Han, his eyes betraying fury as he recalls scenes of injustice. He is then shown gearing up for his fight against evil.

Be it ruthless criminals or big men in suits, he remains fearless and determined. 

Moreover, the ambitious efforts of Park Young Han, Kim Sang Soon (Lee Dong Hwi), Cho Kyung Hwan (Choi Woo Sung), and Seo Ho Jeong (Yoon Hyun Soo) united as a team heightens expectations for the teamwork of these passionate detectives. 

The teaser piques curiosity about whether Park Young Han and his team will root out corruption from society.

While there is no doubt Choi Bool Am did justice to the character of Chief Inspector Park in Chief Inspector, Lee Je Hoon promises to color the character differently, adding his own charm as he transforms into the passionate and angry young detective Park Young Han. 

Chief Detective 1958 will premiere on April 19. The K-drama will be available to stream on Disney+. Watch the character teaser here
