Stranger Netflix Streaming

A complex 16 hour Korean thriller series that involves corruption in the government and corporations along with some murders that should make many people happy. The series takes place in Seoul and features a big cast playing detectives, prosecutors and various villains. The cast features some very handsome leading men including Seung-Woo Cho who plays a prosecutor with some serious personality flaws, he is wonderful. Also quite good is Joon-Hyuk Lee who is also very handsome and plays a combative fellow prosecutor who is up to his neck in complexities and treachery, he is almost a cliche, but sexy as hell. Along for the ride is a female detective played by the superb Doona Bae who is really the heart and soul of the series and is also stunning. Vivid sharp and hyper fast with subtitles that are also fast and can be a problem in following the complicated plot along with keeping all the character's names straight in my head. The show has flaws, over plotting, confused story lines and characters who are there one minute and gone the next, but there is enough good stuff here to keep you glued to the tv. There is also stunning cinematography that gives a good impression of what Seoul is like, a great pounding score, and lots of Korean food. It got into my head so much that I had a dream the other night that I was in Seoul lost but then found.
