A Killer Paradox

Choi Woo-shik plays Lee Tang an ordinary student from a poor family with a part time job at a convenience store. One day he gets into an altercation with a customer and ends up murdering him and from that point things quickly escalate and many more deaths occur. He is pursued by an upright detective JangNan-Gam played by Son Suk-ku who is determined to bring him to justice. The story is an interesting idea and starts well but then it just seems to drag and would have been much better as a movie or with a lot less episodes. Too much filming in the dark, no redeemable characters and the detective constantly chewing gum make it at times an annoying watch. Clever story which you may find yourself sadly fast forwarding.

How do I explain this? It is supposed to be a crime drama but it was really funny! Seriously, brilliantly written and directed! 5 stars 💫 from me!

If you love crime shows then you will love this series. I absolutely gobbled it and binged it without a break!!!

Elite level of screenplay and edits.

There's language options so you won't be missing anything.

Woo sik's baby face is such a contradiction to his character. You won't be bored. Every scene has something important. You will get attached to the characters and simply cannot resist the episodes. I binged it and I am in awe of the writers, there better be a season 2!!!!

Darkly humorous, violent, and never boring, A Killer Paradox is a morality thriller like no other. What begins as a comedy of errors and morphs into a deep detective thriller, it's one of the finest series on Netflix. But more important, it showcases actor Choi Woo-shik's talent and his ability to tackle dynamic characters.

What begins as a comedy of errors and morphs into a deep detective thriller, it's one of the finest series on Netflix. While A Killer Paradox rewards its audience with moments of epic comeuppance, its the way the series complicates the straightforward theme that makes it standout.

Love the new and innovative ways of this series. A testament to the evolving Korean creativity in entertainment, I really loved the dark humour yet exploration of morals as well as the art house style of this series. Choi Woo Sik plays his character in an excellent way, all of a sudden thrown into the depths of murder and life unfolding in the most unexpected ways his acting in his confusion of it all is great ! The only disappointment I felt with this series was Son Suk ku, I felt his acting was kind of lazy, I did not feel him to be the go getter detective that they say he is. The nerdy mastermind behind the murders was also a really great character in this series. I feel it is well worth a watch.

It's a crime thriller based on webtoon, When one accidental killing leads to another, an average college student finds himself stuck in an endless cat-and-mouse chase with a shrewd detective who will stop at nothing to capture him.

Started really intriguing, After a point drama gets predictable though it has some surprising side stories in later episode, in the middle it became slow. Some convenient things for killer and accomplice.

Best parts about the drama are performances, cinematography, appropriate slow motions, interesting narrative, editing is top-notch.

Good drama for investigative crime thriller lovers. Recently similar kdrama came, named Vigilante, which was more realistic.
