Say What You Saw

Jang Hyuk is a brilliant actor and one of my favorites. The rest of the cast was also good, writing was until last episodes, and the series worked well for me until the last few episodes when there was so much violence it felt way over the top. Then there were repeated scenes like they were running out of steam. And, seriously, a cop who holds a gun on a really bad guy repeatedly yet never pulls the trigger. At any rate, mostly a good series with the too-frequent series issues of not being able to remain great until the end.

You will get hooked from the start as this is a followup of the major incident 5 years ago. The pacing seems a bit hastened but the you won't lose any interest as the plot is littered with reveals which you don't expect.It is on par with Signal. The lead is perfect the supporting cast does a really good job. The antagonist doesn't seem upto mark with buildup he has but he manages. The setting is somber, dark, sometimes really dark and is really good, it does a good job of hooking you up , you won't mind some cliches which pop up in middle. The chemistry is OK but you won't be looking at that between the lead. The lead actor steal every scene he is in and he never disappoints some of the other members may.What I am surprised is why this show has not gained enough traction as some others have. I saw two episodes of The VOICE and I stopped watching it because of the screenplay but this series has doesn't suffer that. You won't regret watching this series because you won't feel the time pass.Most of the episodes cross the 1 hr mark but are still worth it. There is some minor hiccup in the middle but you won't mind as it passes. This is the best thriller series from Korea that I have watched.

It's about a series of police investigations with an overriding story about a not very believable serial killer. His behavior is too inconsistent to be believed. He's been dormant for five years but reappears for no good reason. The series is not well written but it is photographed and edited to be compelling. It's a very stark and dark viewing experience and sometimes it is grotesque. There are quite a few strangulations. The plot doesn't always make any more sense than the serial killer does. The investigators seem to pluck clues out of thin air, for example, and then have to explain those clues to each other and to us. This vortex of a series got so bizarre that it sucked me in for fun. Award winning actor Jang Hyuk plays an eccentric loner who makes dubious (to me) pronouncements about criminal minds. His character and two fine actresses playing his lady associates helped to keep me watching although I kept being tempted to stop. 7 stars.

A serial killer on the loose,a young police woman with a traumatic childhood incident,and the ability of photographic memory A mimic crazy guy under arrest... And a mysterious x-detective watching over the investigations breath taking episodes

Somewhat exaggerated photographic memory, but combined with intriguing criminal analysis makes it highly addictive from the beginning. For reasons, perhaps due to the need to drag on the story for a 16-episode series, common sense went free falling from around episode 10.

A normally busy road, suddenly becomes deserted where a senior cop lay unconscious from day till night at a traffic junction with a crashed car, a gun and nobody noticed. The serial killer seemed all powerful, he could access any office he wants, even in a police station there were gunshots and all the cops just watched a crime being committed and did nothing, there were also no security cameras to identify the perpetrator.

Poor editing or story writing ?
