Lee Yi Kyung, who had temporarily stepped down from the program amid personal controversy, is now officially parting ways with the crime variety show ‘Brave Detectives.’ On March 9, broadcaster E Channel announced that ‘Brave Detectives 5’ will premiere on March 27.
‘Brave Detectives’ is a crime themed variety show that recounts real cases solved by detectives who worked on the front lines to protect the public. Since its debut in 2022, the program has gained popularity for delivering authentic storytelling while raising awareness about crime prevention and public safety. The upcoming season is expected to introduce more investigations led by various “hero” detectives.
With the launch of the new season, the program will bid farewell to previous MCs Kim Sun Young and Lee Yi Kyung following the conclusion of Season 4. Longtime panelists Ahn Jung Hwan and Kwon Il Yong will remain, while actress Kwak Sun Young and Yoon Doojoon of Highlight join as new MCs.
Kwak Sun Young, known for her roles in dramas such as ‘Hospital Playlist,’ ‘Crash,’ and ‘Moving,’ is expected to bring both empathy and sharp analysis to the program. Meanwhile, Yoon Doojoon, who has captured global fans as both a singer and actor, is anticipated to showcase his wit and enthusiasm gained from various variety show appearances.
