The TVI Take
A detective communicates with a cold-case detective from the 1980s via walkie-talkie across time. One of the most formally inventive Korean crime dramas — the time communication premise is used with genuine intelligence.
The cold cases are based on real Korean crimes. Exceptional craft and the mystery mechanics are tightly constructed.
