Regarding the choking: We know the walkman belonged to Euigyeom’s brother, and in one scene we’re shown another person choking him at night while wearing the headphones. It’s likely his brother was severely mentally ill/disturbed and choked him at night. I think now that his brother is gone, he needs to do it to himself to be able to sleep, sort of like a lullaby from a person he misses.
I love Ena. She’s so smart, mouthy, and confident. She says what she wants knowing she can face up to the consequences and never tones herself down for anyone. But she also has empathy, isn’t immune to fear and anxiety, and calls for help whenever needed instead of handling everything on her own. She knows the importance of collaborative effort, and seeking Hansaem out whenever in need has helped progress the case so much faster. She’s no-nonsense; one sentence from her to the policewoman - “Even if you tried to stop the car, the outcome may not have changed.” - probably helped ease her distress a lot. And of course she’s gutsy, and Hansaem has joined in on her wrecklessness too, cornering the killer real quick. I love her and hope she gets the best outcome possible in the final episodes!
In the past, the development people wanted to demolish the park and build something there, they had investors ready and had promised them an outcome. The amusement park owner family refused as it’s their family business and legacy. So the development people hired the three deceased bad people to abduct children from the park so they go out of business, and promised them things (like the restaurant) as well as the apartment unit. The family still didn’t budge so they wanted to scare them but ended up accidentally killing the couple (one of whose dad still runs the place). The developers bribed or threatened the two police officers (Ena’s uncle and Yang Jeongho) to cover this up, and gave them apartment units in their name even though they didn’t want them. The couple’s child was sent to an orphanage, and Jeongho kept supporting the child and everyone in that orphanage out of guilt and to repent. The child grew up and is going after everyone. Ena gets the puzzle pieces because her uncle was trying to protect her (threatened by the developers), so technically she is a reason his or her parents didn’t get justice. The victim killed out in the field was talking about dodging green belt and illegally constructing, so he was likely involved in the original case.
If you like the genre, give it a watch. I find it different from WHC and Study Group because it just looks and feels like life. Characters are going through emotions and fighting. Kim Euigyeom is a normal guy (kinda psycho but mostly normal) going through stuff, he acts and reacts like a human being would. I find ONE more realistic out of the three. We see more of MC’s actual life, home, trauma. Action is definitely more believable, Euigyeom isn’t overpowered and doesn’t win every round or land every move. Lee Jungha’s acting is perfect for the role, he expresses anger, frustration, rebellion. For Euigyeom, I’ve seen Sieun comparisons, but I find him to be more like Lomon’s characters.
It's really really good, why is the rating so low?
Most mystery/thriller viewers prefer to give accurate ratings once they finish all the episodes. The ratings rise to a true rating later. Examples: Light Shop and Family Matters had 7.8 ratings which rose after the shows concluded.
I'm presently micro obsessing over Da-mi's character, and her outfit. Is it not a modified school uniform with…
To me her outfits look like what Hercule Poirot or any quirky old timey detective would wear but a feminine and modern interpretation of those outfits. I’m obsessed too!
Umm why did they make Kim Han Saem look older in past but younger and trendy in the present. I mean of course…
New professionals tend to dress like their colleagues. He had older men as seniors and they dressed 90s style, so he likely copied them to fit in. Now he has more years of experience under his belt so he can dress however he wants.
I really want more of Ena+Hansaem. I hope we get a second season with more cases!
