Memorist (insert dramatic dun dun dun).
Memorist focuses on the lives of Dong Baek and Han Sun Mi (played by Yoo Seung Hoo and Lee Se Young respectively) and their quest of unraveling secrets from the past as well as seeking vengeance for their loved ones. it also follows the lives of the people around them. a lot on the South Korean police force and minds of serial killers.

What a storyline, common yet unique, and the performances that were amazingly good. Yoo Seung Hoo and Lee Se Young unnie who gave such a thrilling performance to the drama. one thing that really stands out is their commitment to their characters and the way they added more into every plot twist, very emotional yet outstandingly thrilling.
Firstly on the storyline, there are like 70 serial killers, JK, but there are a lot especially in the first 8 episodes before everything focuses on one person. I really like the way they focused on one genre and led us through it with a bit of humor in one or two corners, it shows what the writers wanted their audience to focus on.

On the other hand, the plot twist at the latter episodes seemed a bit forced and unplanned. Out of nowhere a character would appear and weigh in on the decisions of the main cast without the proper background. The climax and reveal would have had more of an impact if the main antagonist was introduced or baited in previous episodes.
Overall, very action-packed with a lot and I mean a lot of plot twists. if you like gasping every 20 seconds I suggest you WATCH THIS!
