A Killer Paradox

A Killer Paradox gets better as it gets weirder. The beginning was already humorously dark, but then the plot unfolds into an even darker bizarre hero story. I initially thought that this would be an average series. I am glad I was surprised. This series sucked me in without me even noticing. Even though the genre is in the fantasy category, the dialog is well written and feels real life and genuine. The story jumps around and covers numerous sub-stories, but they all link together as the story unfolds. Choi Woo-sik gives a fantastic performance. The series is not too scary, but the viewer will definitely be drawn into the intense scenes.

A Killer Paradox starts off with a bang, but ends with a whimper. The first two episodes are really engaging, and keep you guessing to see what will happen next. The cinematography and storytelling is also top notch. The acting throughout is also very good.

Unfortunately, after that the quality quickly falls off and we are left with a run-of-the-mill vigilante origin story.

Episode five deserves commendation. Here, we are shown how an ordinary person suddenly commits a fatal crime of passion, and thus becomes target fodder for our vigilante. It would have been nice to see more episodes like this one.

This show is really worth watching. The plot is super unique and interesting. It keeps me hooked, with lots of exciting, intense, and also some dark comedic undertones. Although, I'll say, the story kinda dragged in the middle and it got somewhat dull for a while before getting back on track.

The cinematography is also well done. Particularly noteworthy are some scenes that are captured in long one-take shots. The editing choice to sometimes cut back and forth between different times also makes it more fun and engaging to watch.

The actors are great. They play the characters' emotions well, especially the two male leads.

While there are some predictable moments in the story, they don't detract from the overall experience. Extremely recommended.

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!!!!

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.
