Stranger (2017)

I recently decided to take a break from my usual romantic-comedy K-dramas and turn to the darker side. Now, I love crime dramas but, I find that some shows don’t convey the right balance of suspense, goriness etc. However, Stranger (at least season 1) has checked all the boxes for me so far! It follows a young female detective and a prosecutor, who’s lost the ability to feel empathy, try and solve a murder case. Each episode brings in something new about each character and it keeps me (the audience) on the edge of my seat. I am on episode 8 at the minute and I can very much compare this series to Sherlock (which I also love). There seems to be a common theme in crime-dramas of having an emotionless main character, which allows him to unlock ‘superpowers’ that wouldn’t have been possible if he had emotions. Either way, this show has been very good so far, here is the trailer if you would like to check it out:
