Both of them are used to describe a opposite situation at the beginning of a new expression. But what's the difference in detail?

Conversely = On the contrary. It's used when the two things being compared are opposite.
e.g. I like football. Conversely, my wife hates football.
"In contrast" (no "the") is for this kind of contrast.
e.g. I like coffee. In contrast, my wife likes tea.
Tea and coffee are not opposites but different.
Use "conversely" and "in contrast" in formal situations, not like my examples!
