Actor Kim Shin-bi shared his deep affection for the project and his candid thoughts on acting following the conclusion of "Flex X Cop 2".
SBS' Friday-Saturday drama "Flex X Cop 2" successfully wrapped up its run on September 19, recording a final viewership rating of 11.8%. Kim Shin-bi, who starred as Choi Kyeong-jin, the youngest detective in Gangha Police Station's Violent Crimes Team 1, revealed behind-the-scenes stories through his agency Prain TPC's original YouTube series "The actors".
In the released video, Kim Shin-bi reflected on working alongside the Violent Crimes Team 1 cast, remarking, "It was so much fun seeing everyone fulfill their respective roles in their own positions and blend together". He defined his character Choi Kyeong-jin as a "sniper," a "reliable pillar of support," and a "lunatic with clear eyes". He also explained how he evolved the character from Season 1's curiosity-driven persona into someone who approaches investigations more proactively and seriously in Season 2, drawing laughter as he picked "I found it..!" as his signature line.
His deep attachment to the character he portrayed across two seasons was palpable. In a video message to Choi Kyeong-jin, Kim Shin-bi was visibly moved to tears as he said, "You've grown even further, and though you're cool right now, I think you'll become an even cooler guy. Don't be afraid of stumbling; just keep experiencing things honestly as you do now, and I hope you emerge as an even more wonderful person. See you again. I'll miss you". He also expressed his gratitude to the viewers, adding, "Thank you from the bottom of my heart for loving 'Flex X Cop 2,' 'Flex X Cop,' Kyeong-jin, all the diverse characters, and our drama all this time".
Kim Shin-bi also opened up about what acting means to him, confessing, "I don't know for sure, but it feels like something endless. I don't think it can be easily defined". He added, "I love the entire process. Gathering together with everyone and moving toward a single goal—that whole process is just so enjoyable". Expressing his unwavering passion, he concluded, "As long as I'm able to do it, I want to keep going. I want to act until the very end".
