Looking for your next serial killer drama? Look no further!
It’s hard to put into words what this drama is to me and how it made me feel. I feel like we got three seasons all in one 20 episode show. Within the first few episodes it was bombshell after bombshell and I thought hey surely it can’t get worse than this! And then bam, something even crazier happens. So many emotions, twists, and turns that made me feel just as frustrated as the characters felt at times in the show. It was hard to see all the miscommunications or misunderstandings when us as the audience already knew things that make you want to shout it at the screen until they finally get it. Instead, we have to sit and watch them think out loud and run through different scenarios until they can finally find the missing piece. Now I am a huge binge watcher, because I have this compulsive need to just know what happens next. However, for this drama I had to break it down into small chunks of time, I even dropped it for a couple of months because that’s just how much content I had already watched! Every episode is like a movie, and at the end of every episode you feel like so much has happened but also not enough has happened either. I loved that they kept giving us flashbacks of scenes in earlier episodes and showing them in the future episodes because there was no way my brain could recall something that the characters were talking about and what context they were referring to from the past. Really truly appreciated that they didn’t just expect the audience to know exactly what they were talking about and went in depth on things that definitely would have been confusing otherwise. I will say this drama is not for those who are queasy or are looking for a feel good/happy ending drama. This drama is heart wrenching in the best and worst ways possible, and it truly has some scenes that I did have to take my time to get through. Also, I have to say the acting in this is some of the best I have seen in a drama so far, and I think Lee Seung Gi in particular really did justice to his character in regards to the different personalities and juxtaposition of what his character is at the core. I won’t spoil anything but his range as an actor and ability to portray his characters emotions is just amazing. All in all, this is definitely in my top 3 for crime/serial killer K-dramas, only second to Flower of Evil.
