What is it: The synopsis for this detective suspense thriller doesn t tell us much. All we know is that a young and righteous rookie policeman Jung Ba-reum (Lee Seung-gi from A Korean Odyssey) meets a psychopathic killer and his life changes irrevocably. He is partnered with Ko Moo-chi (Lee Hee-jun from Legend of the Blue Sea), a no-holds barred seasoned detective who holds the record of having the most arrests. Moo-chi has only one goal: to seek revenge on the psychopath Head Hunter who murdered his parents in cold blood when he was a child.

Stuff
Alleged Head Hunters gang associates Darrin Stephen Baylis and Michael Kevyn Garard Murphy were arrested as part of Operation Block.
Lawyers for two Christchurch men accused of bookkeeping for a gang stung for selling meth, say it is not a crime to hang out at a gang pad, or to balance its books. A 10-day trial for Darrin Stephen Baylis and Michael Garard Kevyn Murphy began on Tuesday in the High Court in Christchurch, more than three years after charges were originally pressed. Both men had pleaded not guilty to participating in an organised criminal group. Baylis and Murphy were charged as part of Operation Block, a police investigation that exposed methamphetamine dealing in the gang’s ranks in December 2016
