Memories of Murder Is Crime Thriller Cinema At Its Finest!

Prior to 1986, there had never been a serial killer in South Korea. That all changed once the Hwaseong Serial Murders occurred and sent investigators into a spiral to try and find out who could be behind this unprecedented crime spree. This effort is chronicled in Bong Joon-ho's 2003 movie Memories of Murder, which follows detectives Park Doo-man (Song Kang-ho) and Seo Tae-yoon (Kim Sang-kyung) having to work together in order to track down a killer that proves to be as elusive any ancient diamond. The two of them are like a classic buddy cop duo, Park Doo-man is a confident local detective that always trusts his gut while Seo Tae-yoon is an out-of-town detective whose experiences in the field have left him with a more meditative sense of deduction.

Good Men Become Obssessed With Finding The Signs Pointing To Answers In Zodiac

We all love a good mystery. Why you think mystery novels, whether they're aimed at adults or youngsters, tend to sell like hot cakes?

You get to find out what bad guy committed whatever mystery is driving the plot and his motivations by the end of these mystery tales in sharp contrast to real life where, frequently, those kind of answers are never found. Pieces of mystery based entertainment allow us to indulge in getting the kind of closure on atrocities we may never find in reality.
