Tell Me What You Saw

This series is a mix of drama, absurdity, lack of logic and plot twists are just ridiculous. There are a lot of cool Korean detectives with the original storyline. But this one mixed up too many plots, unnecessary pathos and copied from US detectives. 5 points for a stunning lady detective hairstyle only :)

It's about a series of police investigations with an overriding story about a not very believable serial killer. His behavior is too inconsistent to be believed. He's been dormant for five years but reappears for no good reason. The series is not well written but it is photographed and edited to be compelling. It's a very stark and dark viewing experience and sometimes it is grotesque. There are quite a few strangulations. The plot doesn't always make any more sense than the serial killer does. The investigators seem to pluck clues out of thin air, for example, and then have to explain those clues to each other and to us. This vortex of a series got so bizarre that it sucked me in for fun. Award winning actor Jang Hyuk plays an eccentric loner who makes dubious (to me) pronouncements about criminal minds. His character and two fine actresses playing his lady associates helped to keep me watching although I kept being tempted to stop. 7 stars.

Jang Hyuk is a brilliant actor and one of my favorites. The rest of the cast was also good, writing was until last episodes, and the series worked well for me until the last few episodes when there was so much violence it felt way over the top. Then there were repeated scenes like they were running out of steam. And, seriously, a cop who holds a gun on a really bad guy repeatedly yet never pulls the trigger. At any rate, mostly a good series with the too-frequent series issues of not being able to remain great until the end.

Somewhat exaggerated photographic memory, but combined with intriguing criminal analysis makes it highly addictive from the beginning. For reasons, perhaps due to the need to drag on the story for a 16-episode series, common sense went free falling from around episode 10.

A normally busy road, suddenly becomes deserted where a senior cop lay unconscious from day till night at a traffic junction with a crashed car, a gun and nobody noticed. The serial killer seemed all powerful, he could access any office he wants, even in a police station there were gunshots and all the cops just watched a crime being committed and did nothing, there were also no security cameras to identify the perpetrator.

Poor editing or story writing ?
