'Chief Detective 1958' Episode 6 Recap: Park Young Han Confronts Higher-Ups After Chief Yu's Incident

The episode began with a conversation between the old Park Young Han and his grandson, who also entered the police force because of him.

The retried detective, who is now running a small store at Jongnam, gave the younger some words of encouragement after he expressed his regret and frustration for being unable to catch the culprit of a recent murder case.

Meanwhile, the episode also featured the continuation of Chief Yu's incident. The unit 1 group found out about the shocking news involving their superior, who was in a critical condition after he got attacked by a group of unidentified men.

While the chief of unit 1 was unconscious at the hospital, Jongnam Police welcomed their new superintendent, Baek Do Suk, who was the captain of Park Young Han when he was a student soldier.

Young Han and the rest of the team were disappointed with their colleagues and the higher-ups, who seemed to be celebrating Chief Yu's state.

However, even before the new superintendent started his duty, he and Young Han had a clash after they were able to recall each other.

In addition, Young Han had a hunch that their new boss had something to do with it.

Lo and behold, after a series of investigations, he found out that Baek Do Suk and Chief Choi Dal Sik had something in common. The latter recruited Baek to their elite military group, and as a deal, he had to make Chief Yu suffer.

In the last scene, Park Young Han arrested Chief Choi, but because of his rank in the military, he was the one who got punished.

Thankfully, Chief Yu came fresh from the hospital to give his testimony regarding the incident.

Will this reveal the true agenda of Chief Choi and Baek Do Suk in the police force?
