I have a bad feeling about this. Look like a SF story, but finaly just another cop show : A guy travel in time at beggining of the drama, then, all drama is just police investigation. End of the drama, the guy come back in his time. It's that ?
Look like a boring drama like this : - First episode : ML travel in time. - All others episode : ML help a police investigation in another time. - Last Episode : ML come back to his time. Is it that ? Or there is some interactions ? Like : ML lead go back and forth in time during the drama, many times, with cause and effect change in the past, then future ?
I'm not really emotionally attached to any of the characters yet. But I do tend to find it harder to connect to…
I won't speak about 365, read my review for that. ;-) About Train, my concern is precisely the opposite : too slow paced, too much character development, not enough plot driving, not enough plot-twists. Honestly, I don't care so much, I think now I can stand the pace as it is because there is a good work on ambiance, a good concept, and I like Trains and Railways. So, it's the first drama about Trains and Railways, and better, with a fantastic/SF plot. I just watch without expecting too much. But finaly, I prefer watch that than others airing drama, even if I don't know how I could rate the drama. Rating are very low, 1.3%, with such good acting and good directing, it's a bit a pity, but well, it's like that...
Who's the killer?I'm putting a spoiler here because this is a serious lead.
The most obvious finding is that there is a murderer in world B and not in world A. To find the assassin, we just have to sweep aside all possibilities.
1 - The murderer in world A died before committing crimes. It could be the pastor, for example. Dead in world A, but living in world B. His followers distribute leaflets at the station (as if by chance...). It could be the father of the male lead as well.
2 - There is also a murderer alive in world A. But he don't kill same people, not in the same place, and police know nothing about that. Unlikely hypothesis.
3 - The murderer from world A has changed his mind, making him not want to commit crimes. Unlikely hypothesis.
4 - The assassin became an assassin in world B, but couldn't become an assassin in world A, because an event changed his fate. Here I have found the ideal culprit: the madman! In the drama, we observe that the male lead has some kind of psychic crises, as if he had fleeting visions of the other world or his alter-ego. However, the madman from world A has the same kind of crisis. There's a kind of psychic connection between him and his alter-ego from world B. This explains why in his madness he is obsessed with trains, burying corpses, writing strange things on the wall. He wasn't drawn to the crime scene by accident. It had to happen. In the B-world, the madman is not a handicapped madman, but a dangerous madman, a crazy serial killer! The irony of the scenario is that the madman from world B throws corpses on the railroad track, and it is his alter-ego, the madman from world A, who is in charge of burying them. This dangerous madman could be part of the parish of world B as well. One of the faithful perhaps. With a mystical reason for killing, such as wanting to help God balance the deaths and punishments in two worlds instead of one.
It's unidirectional because: - The station on world A is closed, and not the one on world B. - Corpses from world B are found in world A, but no corpses from world B are found in world A.
Therefore: - The train comes from world B, arrives in world A, then returns to world B. - A murderer kills people in world B, but no murderer kills people in world A.
I love coming here and read your assumption it make the whole drama better thank u so much
ahah! Look my posts on soompi, here you get some real informations about places. ^^ I don't know anymore about the crime investigation, I forget easely many parts. But the drama is still easy to follow and understand. Pace is too slow, but hoppefully, what is slow benefit also a bit for the dark ambiance. I feel very relax when I watch this drama. I prefer to be in stress with a plot-twist every 10 minutes, but to be relax is nice too, when atmosphere and directing are worth it. And there is many dialogs and situations we knows, but people in the drama don't know : when they questions themselves about crimes mysterys, impossible for them to understand because it's related to a parallel world. I think it's not useless to show that, it help to show than the story is good about logic of the facts, and it help us to remember many facts with redudancy. As a spectators, you always love to understand things than people don't understand in the drama. So easy to please people. ^^
No I think they will find out who the culprit is in world B with SK and DW world A, 2 scenarios: DW world A stays…
It's not that. Maybe, It's just the culcript is the same in both worlds. Look at my latest post. I need dates for thinking about that. Two culcripts, then become one.
I forgot all about it, did anyone write down the dates? - Dates when the parents died. - Date when Mukyeong station was closed down. - Date of the murder of the first victim in the railway crime zone.
My guess is: - Worlds were separated when the parents died. Reason unknown at this time. - The station closed. For a reason that will be explained later, the train became a means of traveling from one universe to another. - Finally, from there, more murders take place. The murderer knows of the existence of the train, and uses it to get rid of the corpses in another world.
Since the train is only used in one direction, I suppose so too: - The murderer from the other world is alive, but the murderer from the original world is dead. - The murderer could be the pastor for example, since one died of cancer and not the other one, 3 years ago. - In order to investigate all this, we would need to have the dates.

End of the drama, the guy come back in his time.
It's that ?
- First episode : ML travel in time.
- All others episode : ML help a police investigation in another time.
- Last Episode : ML come back to his time.
Is it that ? Or there is some interactions ?
Like : ML lead go back and forth in time during the drama, many times, with cause and effect change in the past, then future ?

There is also the good flashy/split editing showing same place in both worlds.
