The opening credits and the accompanying music drew me in immediately. To watch an intelligent, sensitive legal/crime thriller after what seemed forever was such a delight.

Bae Doona, Cho Seung-Woo, Yoo Jae-myung and Shin Hye-sun were brilliant on screen. The OST weaves in and out of Stranger effectively, so much so, that you're still lingering on a certain scene when it has long gone by. There aren't any gratuitous misogyny or violence...it's all integral to building the story and the cast, director and DOP navigate through it all smoothly.

Lee Soo-yeon's written a complex, woven story that is skilfully abstract in places and glaringly clear in the rest.

Such a respite and antidote to the run-of-the-mill saccharine dramas on offer.

Must Watch!!
