‘The Trade Secrets of Detectives’ deals with a true story of an extramarital affair between a male PD and a female writer who have been colleagues for a long time.Former JTBC announcer Kang Ji-young, who joined as a daily detective, repeatedly asked, “What is this?” and eventually expressed shock by saying, “Is Channel A embracing this much?”

Today(23rd), on Channel A’s ‘Detectives’ Trade Secret’s ‘Case Note’, a woman comes to the detective team saying, “I think my husband and his bestie are having an affair at my house.” The client was a newlywed who was happily married and was also expecting a baby soon.According to the client, one day, her best friend came to the client’s house with the excuse of a leak in the house.The friend, who had said she would only stay for a day, gradually extended the stay by making various excuses, and eventually ended up staying at the client’s house for two months.The husband and friend had been colleagues, PD and a writer, for a long time.

However, after starting to live together with a friend, her husband’s suspicious behaviors are caught.On days when her husband is late, his friend comes home at a similar time and makes excuses.Then one day, the client, who came home late after going out, witnesses a shocking scene where her husband and his friend are sleeping on the sofa, hugging each other.The two people, who are flustered by the client’s appearance, make excuses, saying, “I didn’t know because I was drunk.” Furthermore, the friend naturally gets into the passenger seat of her husband’s car even though the client is with him.Yoo In-na, who is watching this, gets angry and says, “You’re fighting for seats? That’s ridiculous,” and Kang Ji-young responds incomprehensibly, saying, “The wife should ride in the front seat! That’s crossing the line.”

The detective team investigated the apartment where the friend lives and found that no unit had had any water leak repairs done in the past two months.In the end, it becomes clear that the friend is lying and staying at the client’s house.The truth about what secret the client’s husband and best friend are hiding can be found out on Channel A’s ‘Detectives’ Trade Secret’ on Monday, the 23rd at 9:30 p.m.
