Hanoi featured in popular South Korean drama Flex X Cop 2

The popular South Korean television series ‘Flex X Cop 2’ has drawn significant attention from Vietnamese viewers due to the inclusion of Hanoi in its storyline. In a recent plot development, characters investigating a criminal case discover that a suspect has fled to Vietnam.

The series depicts a group of police officers traveling to Vietnam, specifically landing at Noi Bai International Airport to continue their pursuit. While the location serves as a plot device for the investigation, the appearance of a familiar Vietnamese landmark has sparked enthusiastic reactions on social media.

Vietnamese netizens have responded with humor, suggesting that the lead character, Jin Yi Soo (played by Ahn Bo Hyun), should take the opportunity to enjoy local cuisine such as pho or bun cha while in the country.
