Movie background
The film is adapted from the Hwaseong serial murder case in South Korea from 1986 to 1991, the victims of these ten series of cases are women, ranging in age from 13 to 71, the police used 205 police, the suspects reached 21280, and 570 and 180 people underwent DNA and hair identification respectively, however, the real murderer was not found in the end, and it was listed as one of the three major unsolved cases in South Korea.
At the beginning of the movie, in the golden wheat field, the police Park Dooman received a report that there was a naked female corpse in the canal next to the rice field, which had long been smelly, and the only thing that could be confirmed was that the naked female corpse had been raped before her death. Hands and feet were firmly bound, the head was covered by panties, and a pair of stockings tightly wrapped around the mouth of the deceased.
According to the usual investigation methods, Agent Park began to investigate from the people around him, and during the investigation, two months later, successive murder cases with the same method appeared one after another, and the modus operandi was exactly the same as the previous one, and the continuous crime caused panic in the society, and the police were also facing increasing pressure.
Victim 2: Park Bo Hee
As a result, the police decided to set up an investigation team to investigate this series of difficult cases. The small town policeman Park Doo-man and Su Tae-yoon from Seoul took over the case, and the serious lack of clues made the inexperienced Park Doo-man and his partner Agent Cao only rely on rough forced confessions and sixth sense inferences, and beat the suspect into a trick several times. And Agent Su was objective and calm, according to reasonable analysis, several times to eliminate suspicion, the police in order to prove and overthrow contradictions, but innocent women were brutally killed one after another, they had to reach a consensus and work together.
Agent Park found that there was semen of the suspect at the scene, but there was no pubic hair, and it was determined that the suspect was a man without pubic hair. On the other hand, Agent So also found that the victims were all wearing red clothes on rainy days. Therefore, the investigation team decided to choose a rainy day and send undercover agents to lure the perpetrators. The next day, it was another woman who died. At this time, a young man who was extremely consistent with the characteristics of the crime became the biggest suspect.

Brief analysis of the characters
01
Park Doo-man
The criminal police in a small Korean town instinctively, after catching the suspect Kwang-ho, in order to complete the task assigned by his superiors, he induced people to recall the murder, regardless of whether the person was the real murderer. In the process of finding the real murderer, he locked his eyes on a mentally disabled person, Guanghao, took him back to the police station, and forced him to admit that he was a murderer, hoping to close the case early. Park Doo-man's image does not represent him alone, in the context of that special historical environment, the roughness, ignorance and excesses of the police, just like in that turbulent era, while pursuing evil, on the other hand, new evils are born.
02
Su Tae-yoon
A senior detective who graduated from Seoul University, he was extremely dissatisfied with the interrogation method of Officer Park, and when he saw that Officer Park tried to forge evidence to convict the mentally handicapped man Kwang-ho as the real murderer, he rebuked him in public, and he could not convict without evidence, and the two clashed fiercely. This professionally educated policeman with certain investigative power has gradually changed Park Dooman's style of acting, which to a certain extent implies that the way South Korean society has been adjudicating cases intuitively and violently has been gradually replaced by rationality and the rule of law.
