Synopsis
An ordinary man begins to commit more murders after inadvertently killing someone, and a police detective pursues him relentlessly. "A Killer Paradox" is based on a megahit webtoon written and illustrated by Kkomabi, who starkly contrasts a shocking story against delightful cartoon images. Skilled actors with a commanding presence breathe life into the series: Choi Wooshik ("Time to Hunt", "Parasite", "The Witch : Part 1. The Subversion", "Our Beloved Summer") plays Lee Tang, a college student who commits his first murder accidentally and discovers his supernatural gift of discerning evildoers. Son Sukku ("D.P", "My Liberation Notes", "The Roundup") plays Jang Nan-gam, a police detective probing into Lee Tang's murder cases. Lee Hee-jun ("Mouse", "Miss Baek", "Oh! My Gran", "The Man Standing Next", "Badland Hunters") plays Song Chon, the mysterious ex-detective who adds suspense to the storyline as a threatening figure to both Lee Tang and Jang Nan-gam. "A Killer Paradox" is directed by Lee Chang-hee ("Strangers From Hell", "The Vanished") and is written by up-and-coming screenwriter Kim Da-min, who received the Grand Prize award from Gyeonggi Content Agency's Support for Screenplay Planning and Development. "A Killer Paradox" promises to deliver an imaginative and well-polished story, asking thought-provoking questions about crime and punishment. (Netflix)
