more than 'catch a killer'
Really enjoyed this series, and I think it adds quite a lot to the popular culture canon of the Hwaseong serial murders, which this series is based on.
That it focuses a lot more on the consequences of corruption, the prejudices of the time against certain groups of people and the human elements that were affecting the investigation makes it such a rich and complex story, and not just a mere reinterpretation of the events.
The acting is also incredible. Every character felt like an entire world that had a background and interiority. It made us understand their actions and motivations much better.
My only issue, and the reason is not a 10, is that the pacing is uneven by the end, and it drags a little. I think some plot points needed to be sacrificed, or the series needed to be longer.
