Lee Seung-gi in a scene from Mouse. The bemusing serial killer K-drama got the operatic ending it scarcely deserved.

2/5 stars
There’s something to be said for sticking to your guns. Before their show even aired, the creators of serial killer thriller Mouse clearly laid out their intention. They wanted to realise a fantastical “what if?” scenario: what if a psychopath could feel remorse for their actions?
The resulting programme, a manic and maddening melee of murder and mystery, held on to that notion, which scrapped and heaved its way through the show’s twists, turns and puzzling detours.
Spoilers
The drama has been bringing thrill to the viewers with its unpredictable twists and exciting plot developments.
The previous episode ended with Jung Ba Reum (Lee Seung Gi) paying the “top predator” a visit. The person in question turned out to be none other than Choi Young Shin (Jung Ae Ri), the chief secretary.
With Go Moo Chi (Lee Hee Joon), Oh Bong Yi (Park Ju Hyun), and Choi Hong Joo (Kyung Soo Jin), finding out the truth about Jung Ba Reum’s real identity, it will be intriguing to find out what will happen in the last episode.
