Cha Yeon-Ho (Lee Min-Ki) gets transferred to the TCI (Traffic Crime Investigation) team. He studied mathematics at the top university in Korea and has numerous certificates in the field of TCI. He has a special ability to simulate the time of an accident, using his sharp analysis and reasoning abilities. On the flip side, he sorely lacks in social skills and is unable to drive a car, which affects his police career in a bad way.

Members on the TCI team includes Min So-Hee (Kwak Sun-Young) who solves cases with her unique persistence and perseverance no matter what comes her way. She has excellent martial arts and driving skills. There's also a secret reason why she sticks with the TCI team. Jung Chae-Man (Heo Sung-Tae) was a veteran detective in the violent crimes division. He realized the loopholes and lack of a system to combat the increase in traffic crimes and he formed the TCI team. He also occasionally surprises people around him with his use of eloquent speech. Woo Dong-Ki (Lee Ho-Cheol) is a car specialist. His vast knowledge about cars caught the attention of Jung Chae-Man and he joined the police force to work with the TCI team. Eo Hyun-Kyung (Moon-Hee) is the youngest member of the TCI team. She is skillful in taekwondo, judo, and boxing. The members of the TCI team must combat the rise of traffic crimes, which are also become increasingly more sophisticated, with determination, intelligence, and the use of their individual talents and skills.

Jungle_fish May 03 2026 5:28 am This drama is so underrated, I can’t wait for Season 2. If I’m not mistaken, I think it was mentioned in the first few episodes that one of the children of a high-ranking police officer is in the TCI unit, right? Is it Hyun-kyung? It hasn’t been revealed yet, right? Maybe in season 2?

Ish Nov 18 2025 1:39 pm A good drama, which could have had 16 episodes, but that's okay. Simple, enjoyable, and full of (genuine) wisdom. I enjoyed watching it.

Joy Jun 20 2025 4:49 am I'm just here patiently waiting for S2 I enjoyed this drama so good but I need that guy to pay for all the damages he caused and not just enjoy himself with a promotion

Ine Feb 08 2025 1:02 pm Really liked this drama! The storyline was well written and the comedy didn't feel forced, I actually laughed out loud a couple of times. The actors did a really good job, loved seeing Lee Ho-Cheol as a cop and not the typical gangster as he always plays. And I especially loved seeing Shim So-Young 5(?) different roles. Her range is gold, wish to see her in more dramas with bigger roles tbh. 9/10 will recommend this

pyo jeong uk Jan 17 2025 9:50 pm this drama very good and interesting. but one think that i dont really like is the ahjumma who have more than 3 character ckckck

Aren Oct 12 2024 12:05 pm M enjoying this show like anything,.acting is superb, storyline is very good with very good dash of comedy. Also the icing of the show is the actors who used to play only the negative or gangster in other kdrama playing good cops is a well played by the director/producers-a big thumbs up. Even the actors playing the negative roles are damn good, wish to see them more in other shows too.

ayuthaya Sep 15 2024 1:17 pm Very good drama. I hope there will be another season.....

j Jul 22 2024 9:29 am i want to know why shim so young had 5 different characters here? hahahahaha

ENA Jul 17 2024 10:05 am ENA doesn’t fail to make good series! This one is remarkable. Though it may not be the famous actors and actresses, everyone played their roles very well. Story is really good. You’ll binged this one for sure! Nice! The flow of the story seems expected but unexpected. I give this 9/10. Give it a shot! Worth watching!

Xoxo Jul 12 2024 3:48 am I hope there'll another seasons ❤️❤️❤️

Gelato Jul 09 2024 9:47 am Kinds sad about the ratings but its A Very Good Drama. ppl and sleeping on it. Also, it has many faces thoooo. Familiar faces are popping every episodes. I'm Amazed

A Musssttttt Watchhhhh!!!! A Must!!!

hweeeeech Jun 26 2024 7:04 am Omg. Mr. Joo Hyun and Lee Ho Cheol totally, absolutely, completely pass off as father and son. No other pairing has blown my mind off the same way!

Nikkidee Jun 26 2024 1:12 am Shim So-Young had a lot of different roles in the drama! ♥️

Namiko Kim Jun 22 2024 8:36 am This drama is so brilliant!

The most amazing part is Shim So Young! She played so many different character in this drama. Very versatile. Her appearance make this drama more colourful.

Congrats also for, Kwak Sun Young because finally she made it for leading role. I hope to see her in more dramas as female lead.

kdramagurl Jun 19 2024 1:17 pm Season 2 please! It was a terrific series! I admire directors who can make actors work as protagonists while being cast as villains most of the time. There are still open cases, and I really hope they will consider another season.

Fair Mandy Jun 19 2024 9:17 am Heo Sung-tae and Lee Ho-cheol made me watch this drama.. knowning these 2 were always the villian to my surprised they were the protagonist in this series.. i loved the story.. loved the entire cast.. i hope we get a season 2..

Nanette Jun 19 2024 8:41 am Only Lee Minki can make this role perfect.

awe Jun 19 2024 12:34 am we need this 2nd season. Hope they tease to make it happen. We still have one hidden villain who didn't get caught, the unlicensed taxi case

blackshinee Jun 18 2024 12:19 pm I felt that the first episode of this drama wasn't interesting, I mean it didn't show any scenes that made me want to continue, but then I thought "I think I could continue, maybe it would be better, right?" and it's true that I immediately felt comfortable in this drama, making me really like it... even though I'm quite curious about the personal lives of some of the actors which aren't really explained? but that's very enough.

G Jun 18 2024 6:04 am Even though the villagers on the island have only had a few scenes in Ep 11， most of them have already provided more expressions than Lee Min Ki. LOL

April Jun 16 2024 5:30 am I thought I was just tripping, but I really have to check that actress Shim So-young is in diff characters. This is so unserious hahhahah

Princess Jun 14 2024 7:36 pm How can they recycle same actress (shim so young) into 4 character??? Hahahaha...she stand out too much??

Catie Jun 12 2024 9:35 pm Lee Taejoo is an interesting character. In other dramas I watched usually this type of an opportunist is not very intelligent so they do anything and everything their higher ups tell them to do so they can climb up the ladder. But Taejoo is an elite cop, smart and capable himself. He views his boss as a vehicle for his success and when he decided that his boss won't be able to pull him up any further he's the one to cut his ties with him haha. I hope he stays bad and there won't be another plot twist for his character. Two more eps and I hope he can have his way til the end :D I doubt it though, I think this drama will have a feel good ending with the villains all taken down

Taemi Jun 12 2024 9:27 pm Just finished ep 10 and I feel like Jaeyoung’s dad’s house is the same house from the Udata episode in Taxi Driver lol all these references just makes me want to rewatch Taxi Driver all over again

Tams Jun 12 2024 8:30 pm I just love when the characters turn their cars around and drive backwards. Loved it in Taxi Driver and loved it here too, it’s such a cool move

Kee Jun 12 2024 8:41 am On episode 8, cha yeonho received han Kyung soo's call for help and he should have heard that loud sound indicating he was hit by something, but there was no reaction from him. He was still his stiff self. Lee min ki is a very capable actor. This is a total waste of his talent!

mysky09 Jun 11 2024 12:50 am Just focus with Shim So Young -ssi 's all characters. Cool. I love that sense of comedy :D

mysky09 Jun 11 2024 12:47 am Just focus with Shim So Young -ssi 's all characters ??????

lili Jun 09 2024 9:03 am oooh I am loving the vibe of Heo Sung Tae and Lee Ho Cheol in this drama. I jope writers are not going to make any one of them the bad guy nor kill any one of them.

Vivian Jun 04 2024 2:13 pm I want to know why restaurant owner has 3 characters?

Kee Jun 04 2024 1:19 am How i wish Lee min ki's character will be one that's tough at once, One you'd fall in love with instantly instead of the usual dork, catatonic types that make one frustrated. I love LMK but enough of this please. Give me Kim Rae won anytime!

Jubi Palmieri Jun 02 2024 3:37 pm Great series. I really always watch anything with

leeminki @leeminki storyline, writing Great.

Krys May 31 2024 7:37 am I have a feeling it’s the dad of the girl that Yeonho “killed” that’s behind everything. He had worked in the police force and seems far too calm and collected so he must’ve been plotting his revenge

Mara May 29 2024 12:08 am Halfway through this interesting Kdrama. I love these series when the underdog obviously triumphs in the end although I admit getting there can be slow and frustrating at times. Also, here's hoping Cha Yeon Ho gets a glow-up soon.

Ain Kamilia May 26 2024 8:39 am good dramaaa, can watch it???

Raeli May 25 2024 5:39 pm Wow Shim So Young played the restaurant staff at the bbq restaurant at the beginning of the series, the shaman, and Minju’s mom! I wonder who she’ll play in the next case lol

hihi May 25 2024 6:17 am this show is great! all the villians and gangters become good and solve cases together!

God May 25 2024 3:01 am Although it’s a good plot but I think the story writer is portraying the main character Cha Yeon Ho way too weak. Seems the main actress is taking all the limelight now……..if Inspector Cha doesn’t buck up soon, this drama is not worth watching at all…..

Cherry May 23 2024 10:01 am So interesting and excited when I watch this movie.crash team fighting

Quinn May 22 2024 4:12 pm So far this show is pretty good. Not as good as Taxi Driver obviously, but that’s a high bar to meet. It’s nice to see a lead female character who knows how to fight, I love that! I’ll be interested to see how this show evolves!

lol May 22 2024 2:48 am the insurance fraudster in the first episode is portrayed as a clever man. but when the police went to him, he committed another crime. Is there any logic in the writer's mind. I got the feeling that I was being cheated on something.

Wendi May 19 2024 1:48 pm Same director as Taxi Driver and a lot of the same actors from the first season of Taxi Driver too so I’m looking forward to this!

kdramagurl May 18 2024 1:07 pm Nice to see lee ho cheol playing with the good guys. I've seen him before and he's always with the bad squad. The first 2 episodes are really good. Can't wait to see the next episodes.

amalia May 15 2024 7:51 am Wow same director with Taxi Driver

ncsc May 13 2024 10:56 am Beginning of the first ep already reminded me of Taxi Driver. Upon checking here, I learned it is the same Director. Hopefully the Director brings more Taxi Driver cast for cameo/support roles hahaha(EP1 already started with one).

Bunna1704 Apr 21 2024 9:25 pm Comedy King Lee Minki is comeback! Although his recent role also a detective, but he totally immerse into different personalities as genius detective from KAIST graduate, Cha Yeonho. Also chemistry seems loaded between TCI members team. Rooting for Crash! ps. it will also airing in Disney+ as international OTT.

Wonton Apr 21 2024 9:47 am Lee Min Ki and his poker face comedy is always funny to watch

yani Apr 14 2024 2:30 pm Lee Minki looking like Shin Hakyun's Evillive in the trailer. Is this going to be his fourth traumatized into emotionlessness character yet again?

onmy_mark Apr 11 2024 6:30 am Heo Sung Tae as a good guy, definitely gonna watch

Aimen Apr 03 2024 11:19 am You have no idea how excited I am for this drama....ENA's giving the best dramas in 2024

Kira Mar 03 2024 4:07 pm Yesssssssss Lee Min Ki in a genre I love ❤️❤️?❤️❤️ Detective Kdramas are the best ??❤️❤️

D Mar 01 2024 11:36 pm Heo Sung Tae aa a good guy and highly eloquent? Looking forward to it. Slightly scared about Lee Min Ki doing a Se Hee version 3 yet again. His other cop roles have been so good so far because he was so full of life. Prodigy traffic analyst who can't drive a car sounds funny however, hoping it is good.

syrl83 Feb 28 2024 9:15 pm synopsis on firee. see you soon TCI team

Fansof_heo Feb 26 2024 10:55 am Heo Sung-tae!!! <3
