HAD SO MUCH POTENTIAL.
Like the majority of watchers, i was also intrigued by the trailer. With a promising storyline and everything that i love in a drama -thriller, mystery, psychological... it had so much potential but unfortunately just fell short for me.
THE GOOD.
- the FL was alright, the representation of Aspergers syndrome was interesting to see. Kim young Kwang is amazing as always. His portrayal of a psycho was scarily good.
- the cinematography, acting and overall production was incredible- it was something that kept me watching.
THE BAD
- The pacing was abit off. The first 2 episodes were great- the establishment of the main leads were solid and the interesting plot was set into motion. But as the episodes continued, the storyline became somewhat slow and incoherent, with unnecessary plots line and filler episodes (ep 6). Then as the series came to an end, it begins to escalate- with the serial killer receiving weird calls from his past victims and him finally feeling threatened, for him to then be killed?
- I wish they delved further into the serial killers background. We get a VERY brief insight into his past; he had a mother who apparently abandoned him. We also see how his first murder was accidental but then what!? TELL ME MORE. Did he not have any friends /family? How did he get that scar? how did he target his victims? and how did he easily get away with it??
- most characters lacked any depth. what was the point of the boss lady please.
- The police character was infuriately STUPID. You first decided to meet an unknown guy at a far away secluded location, find out he lied about his disability and slept with him, for him to then abandon you after disposing your wheelchair- yet you decide to meet him again? i don't understand how she didn't use the police facilities to identify the guy? the wheelchair friend had the potential to be a badass character, but ended up being a disappointment. why he didn't kill her is truly a mystery to me?
- LETS TALK ABOUT EPISODE 6. This ep must've solely been made to annoy the hell out of viewers. At this point she's aware of his psycho nature but she decides to meet him again for revenge with nothing but her wheelchair and half a brain. atleast take some backup smh. ALSO why/how do pedestrians have easy access to demolition sites?
- the police were useless as usual.
- was the extreme nudity and sex scene necessary? i'm not a prude, but they didn't really add anything to the story.
- The main leads apparently fall in love. but there was no build up to that. They met rarely and briefly, for them to suddenly be madly in love?? We get to see the 'human' side of the serial killer in the final episode. He starts to show ¿remorse? for his actions. the complete 180 of his character was too sudden and uneventful.
Overall, the story was very promising. has great momentum in the beginning, to come to a halt towards the end. The ending was just right for me, but with the weird pacing it was rather anti-climatic.
