Hey drunksmiles here 👋
I’ve just caught up with the first four episodes of Hunter with a Scalpel, and I can’t get it out of my head. It’s unsettling in a quiet way — not gory for shock value, but disturbingly precise, much like Se-hyun herself.
I’d love to hear how everyone’s interpreting the story so far. Here’s what I’m chewing on — let’s dive in:
🧬 1. Seo Se-hyun: Genius or ticking time bomb?
We see glimpses that she’s not just brilliant — she’s different. Cold but not heartless, isolated yet painfully self-aware. Do you think she’s tracking her father to stop him… or chasing a part of herself she fears becoming? (that's just my guess).
🗡️ 2. The father’s game — a message or a trap?
Yoon Jo-gyun resurfacing after twenty years isn’t random. Is he taunting Se-hyun, grooming her, or proving a point only she can understand?
So far, each victim feels more like a breadcrumb than a coincidence.
👉 What’s your theory on his endgame?
🔍 3. Jung Jung-hyun: Trustworthy or trouble?
He’s sharp and relentless — but also watching Se-hyun like she’s a crime scene herself.
Are we about to see an uneasy partnership, a betrayal, or something more tragic between them?
⚖️ 4. Storytelling & atmosphere
Personally, I love that the show lets tension simmer rather than explode.
The autopsy room might be the most terrifying place — no jumpscares needed.
But is the slow burn working for you, or testing your patience? (for me it's testing my patience)
💭 Your turn:
✅ Which moment so far unsettled you the most?
✅ Do you trust Se-hyun’s judgment — or is she walking a dangerous line?
✅ Big theories for how this cat-and-mouse will end?
