I might have to rewatch this, I remember really enjoying it when it came out. Went in expecting it to be only fluff, and while it WAS a sugary-sweet show, it also had its more sober and pensive moments. All three couple had their unique issues to work through, but all were good people.
I understand your sentiments, but this drama is based on a real-life case. The case is famous in South Korea for…
Yes, it is based on the same Hwaseong serial murders case. However, Memories of Murder was made much before the real killer was identified. This drama is the first one made after the truth of the whole situation was exposed.
Not sure if you're aware, but this is based on a real-life case. The "shady characters" walked away scot-free…
I also wondered why they didn't show us the girl's body being found. A definite issue there. However, I thought it was shown that the owner of the pub was the one who moved her body, along with one of his lackeys? Unless I missed something.
If I remember correctly, the culprit is in the middle of an attempt on another woman but gets chased away, and this is how he comes across the girl sleeping in her room. It is quite clear that the one in the field is the same one who commits this crime as well, as a way to satiate his interrupted urge to kill. As a side note- the actual killer did not only target women in their 20s, the victims were aged from young teens to around 69 I think.
i think lee heejun did an amazing job portraying the painful internal conflict that cha si yeong faced between his affection for taeju and his all-consuming need for validation and love from his father. the tragedy of their friendship broke my heart, because it seemed that deep down both of them still loved each other, even if it was just a tiny bit.
Superb acting by Park Hae Soo.The writing is weak. I felt that the story tries to create engagement by constantly…
I understand your sentiments, but this drama is based on a real-life case. The case is famous in South Korea for exposing the injustice and flaws in the system, and so this drama essentially focuses on that, rather than being a typical whodunnit. In real life too, the bad guys escaped. To rewrite that part would be to disrespect the actual victims and people involved, who suffered for years. The bitter aftertaste and discomfort is precisely what the show goes for :)
The series had a brilliant build-up, and the suspense was top-notch, and just enough melodrama, but the finale…
Not sure if you're aware, but this is based on a real-life case. The "shady characters" walked away scot-free in real life too. This show aims to show us just how unfair and flawed the system was at that time. I'm curious as to what the major mysteries you felt were left unanswered are?
hey love, just wanted to check- is there any romantic element in this show? I don't mean as the main genre ofc, but for some reason I remember seeing romance among the genre tags here...unless I saw wrong?
I am in love with the way Yan Yun looks at Jin Zhao's face so carefully every time they talk 🤧 It's like he's constantly trying to read her expressions and eyes, to figure out her mood and if she's okay or not. I need a man like Yan Yun omg...
It's sad to see such negative and immature reactions towards my criticism. I could have tried to understand this…
Well I'm sorry if you aren't literate enough to comprehend OP's comment. And are you talking about my opinion? Or someone else's? Who is the "you" and "your" in your comment? Unfortunately you don't seem to be very clear in your communication. It's too bad that other viewers expressing their opinions seems to enrage you enough to leave unsolicited replies.
lol, you've really enraged the masses with this one 😂Truth be told, I find your comment quite informative.…
Oh, this is hilarious! What an accusation to make 😂 Perhaps if you'd care to take a brief glance at my account, you'd see that I am quite my own person! It's strange that you think only one person can hold an opinion contrary to yours at a time.

Well-articulated and intelligent criticism will not be appreciated or even comprehended on this page, it seems. I'm still on the fence about watching this one, but just seeing the absolute herd mentality and the suppressing of any contradictory opinions here is enough to make me never watch it.
What's with the rating ? I get that we didn't get a lot of good kdramas lately but it's no reason to rate a boring…
lol, you've really enraged the masses with this one 😂 Truth be told, I find your comment quite informative. I keep seeing raving reviews and edits online about this drama, yet every clip I've seen so far seems to be very visuals-focused and bland, and it really isn't making me want to watch the show. So I was wondering if I was just the weird one here. Anyways, I guess I'll give it a try.

Why do you not think it was him?
