Synopsis
: A cringing investigation log of ones who have to read monstrous minds of psychopathic serial killers to stop the crime.. to save the innocents
In the late 1990s and early 2000s, when the term “profiling” is barely known and the concept of “psychopaths” is unfamiliar to most, Ha-Young becomes part of a justice league of criminal mind readers, tasked with delving into the twisted minds of serial killers to prevent further atrocities. Profiling is controversial and misunderstood, and Ha-Young isn’t just fighting to catch killers, he’s battling a system that doubts the value of understanding criminal psychology.
As brutal murders spread fear, Ha-young dives deeper into the disturbed psyches of these eerily human villains, facing internal resistance and the heavy emotional toll that comes with understanding such darkness. The line between hunter and hunted begins to blur, and Ha-Young struggles to distinguish himself from the killers. His partner, sensing the danger, pulls him back from the edge before he can cross the line into mimicking the crimes. Together, the two continue navigating the dangerous path of justice.
