The streamer's first Korean-language drama is a mystery infused with sci-fi and horror, focusing on a brain scientist using mind-syncing technology to investigate a possible murder.
In flashback, we’re introduced to a young Sewon Koh, brilliant but distant. Sewon, who’s diagnosed as being on the autistic spectrum, witnesses his mother dying under tragic circumstances, an event that leaves him with more questions than answers. About what? It hardly matters. Then it’s off to the present day, where Sewon has become an ambitious researcher, obsessed with “unlocking what was inside the brains of others.
For reasons you can probably imagine, it’s not a foolproof process, and sharing memories with these subjects leaves a mark on Sewon. He’s soon losing track of which memories are his own, and he’s even acquiring traits from the people he syncs with, all in the name of solving a very personal mystery. And yes, if that sounds exactly like the premise of, only with sensor caps instead of brain-eating, it absolutely is, minus the sense of humor.to be realistic. Necessarily.
Kim doesn’t sustain the premise for six episodes, neither in the heightened mechanics of the plot nor, finally, in the mystery. There are action scenes and fleeting attempts at supernatural frights, all delivered with joylessness rather than the excitement of a storyteller enjoying a potentially boundless and entertaining narrative framework.
