I don't really know Korean actors, but from the gifs it seems like you picked a good cast. Even though I don't…
Thanks for reading! Quite a few people share the same concern as you. Suffice to say that B-99 can never be completely translated for Korean audiences, however there can definitely be loose adaptations IMHO.

In my case, I can actually see how this would fit in the korean industry. I love your cast. It's actually very…
Thank you so much! It's surreal to hear from someone you kinda look up to. This really means a lot. :D

Thank you for reading my article! What would your perfect cast be? :)
Thank you! I really wanted to cast the supporting characters too, but I feared that the length of the article would be unbearable. *sigh* I absolutely love Lee Jun Ho, he'd make a great Vulture if he were older. Doug Judy is a great character and deserves an equally great casting. I wonder who make a good Wuntch too? Thank you for taking the time to come up with your choices! :D <3

I love Brooklyn 99 and I love Korean dramas but there are a lot of issues in B99 that I am not confident Korean…
I agree with you. There are social issues portrayed in B-99 that would never sit well with the Korean audience, what with the country having a mostly homogeneous population. As seen in variety shows, exposure to new issues causes them to either be put off by them or-like you said- mock them. However I still feel that there are social issues that are relatively universal, and that could possibly be the foundation for a LOOSE adaptation maybe? Thank you for reading and commenting, this really means a lot! :)

Beforehand I would like to congratulate you on writing such a creative article, and the casting choices you made…
Another user commented similarly on whether the show would be able to translate well on the Korean screen, and I agree, there is a stark cultural and societal constrast. However, at it's core, B-99 is a (sometimes satirical) comedy. It may be over the top but that's most entertainment for you. So I feel that a slice of life South Korean police comedy that still maintains the heart and hilarity of B-99 might possibly do well? Or I might just be too optimistic.

Thank you so much for such high praise! And a bigger thank you for taking the time to comment on such a thought-provoking matter!
