Storyline

A serial killer named Shin-Hyun gives himself up to police. He confesses to committing a series of particularly horrifying murders of exclusively female victims. He is imprisoned, awaiting the death sentence for his crimes. Yet the killings do not stop. They continue with all the same characteristics trademarks of the Shin-Hyun serial killings. The case is re-opened when two more bodies are discovered, both pregnant women. One is found in the city's landfill site, and the other is horrifically murdered on a public bus. Detective Mi Yun (played by Yum Jung-Ah), and her newly appointed partner, Detective Kang (played by Ji Jin-Hee), are assigned to the case. Mi Yun and Kang have difficulty working with each other, as their personalities and working methods are constantly in conflict. Detective Kang goes about his new job buoyantly and enthusiastically. He follows a new suspect, Huh, and eventually catches him in the act of brutally murdering a woman in a crowded techno bar. Huh is taken... Written by Peter Gray <dp@petergray.org>

When you face the abyss, don't forget that you are facing yourself.
26 February 2011 | by (Leesburg, FL) – See all my reviews

Korean thrillers are always fascinating, and this one more so than others I have seen.

A serial killer Shin Hyun (Seung-woo Cho ) confesses to murdering six women, is imprisoned, and the killings go on. They grab suspect after suspect, and the killings go on. Even Shin Hyun's psychiatrist was a suspect.

Naturally, we get mismatched partners, as often happens in police thriller. Detectives Kim Mi Yun (Jung-ah Yum) and Kang Tae Hyun (Jin-hee Ji) are as different as night and day, but they have to make it work.

If you are a fan of se7en or The Silence of the Lambs, then this is the film for you. There are good surprises, and it will baffle you until the very end.
