"coming like a storm into your town, you can't catch me now"
I love the character of Tang as an outcast of society, which makes me relate to him, and the thematic of the characters in general. Their names, their stories, how they relate to each other. The dynamic between Tang and Nam Gam made me think of the line "coming like a storm into your town, you can't catch me now" of Olivia Rodrigo's Hunger Games OST. And no, the sex scene wasn’t “unnecessary.” For me personally, it made the connection to Tang and his story better.
The directing was very creative, and I’m not surprised to see it’s the same person who was behind Strangers from Hell.
A Killer Paradox isn’t your typical thriller. It’s a black comedy, and I think it’s good at that. I was fully captivated from how the first episode ended, with the shot of Tang walking in the street, depressed, standing out from the others, almost looking like it could end there, until the quiet finish of the last scene with the beautiful Korean ballad ‘Ordinary Person’ by Lucid Fall.
