One of his best performance! Kim Nam-gil never disappoints his fans and even non-fans. This guy is really something. He truly deserve that Daesang award. He was outstanding in this drama. And the drama, as a fan of crime, psychological thriller dramas, this is a masterpiece. Perfect casting. Great cinematography. Great work from the writers and director. I watched this drama straight and completed it in a day. Mind-blowing. It deserves a standing ovation! My second favorite psycohological thriller drama after Beyond Evil. If you are fond of those kinds of scenes, this is definitely a must-watch.

A captivating and binge worthy detective drama series, this is the Korean version of the hit series Mindhunter. Everything about this is on point. Amazing acting, script, cinematography, soundtrack and overall production value. Pretty much as good as it gets.

Do you need to watch something REAL?

Look no further. How does it feel to be a detective? Through the 12 episodes you will travel with the best mind in this series.

The lead character is a Korean sherlock mind hunter who will take you through the thinking and the analysis which is what makes this series stand out from the other ones like mind hunter or many other crime thriller. You will be thinking about how they solve these cases without not much lead. But you see some brilliant deductive skills, behavioral analysis, quick wit thinking to capture, instinct and also come across great acting by both protagonist and antagonists.

Spend 12 to 13 hours of your life to enjoy this masterpiece.....

Many compared Through the Darkness to the US series Mindhunter. Though they share some elements, they are completely different shows. One focuses on the mind of serial killers. This one focuses on the psychology of profilers.

They could not have found a better actor to portray an empath. And they couldn't have written a better script to profile the empath archetype: quiet, introverted, loner with few social connections. It's downright eerie how well the empath type was depicted. This personality type takes every emotion they're exposed to onto themselves. If they're not careful, their burden will consume them.

By contrast, the serial killers' stories were deliberately made crass and vulgar to underscore the banality of evil.

If you're going into this with a 'Korean Mindhunter' mindset, you'll likely be disappointed, like so many other commenters. But if you like intense psychological exploration, this is the show for you.

I usually watch Kim Nam Gil with playful and funny character. Here in this movie all his funny and playfulness are completely gone. He becomes very serious , persistent, and meticulous person. This proves that he worked hard to animate this character.

This is very serious drama unlike other korean drama that usually combine romantic and comedy into the movie to make more enjoyable to more people. I believe some persons might get bored to watch this. It is very idealistic. No romantic, no fun, nothing but thrill and suspense.

I think it will be classic. I don't think this kind of drama will arise again in 5 - 10 years from now.
