When a criminal profiler from 2015 and a detective from 1989, who are connected via a walkie-talkie, join hands to catch a killer, will they succeed?
This drama follows the life of a criminal profiler in 2015 and a detective in 1989. The story constantly draws parallels between these two time periods about how even though methods of policing might have changed over the years, but the deduction skills needed by a police officer remains the same. During 1989, a series of murders started happening, leaving the detective-in-charge completely stumped. Almost 2 decades later, similar crimes started happening again. The detective-in-charge for this case was also a criminal profiler. When he finds a walkie-talkie, and it enables him to talk to the detective who handled the case in 1989, they start wondering if they can actually prevent crimes from happening in 1989 before they actually happened. Will these two people succeed in saving lives and finding the killer in time?
This drama is a masterpiece of mystery, thriller and suspense plots. Beautifully constructed with strong leads who would do anything to get justice, it speaks to a great degree of determination and courage in every single person involved. If you are someone who enjoys watching crime-fighting detectives who go to any lengths to find the serial killer, in the backdrop of past and present events, then you should definitely watch this one!
