I like it when a really good tv series or movie takes me away into the imaginary world for a few hours and engages my curiosity. I love solving puzzles. And this series has all I am looking for.

A must watch before you die! The best series I've ever seen in my life
su_wuit_yee16 April 2021
I can't begin to describe how much I love this series.. love the mind game. It keeps you wondering. After each episode, you are left with excitement, many thoughts and urge to watch another episode ASAP. Even for someone who doesn't normally watch crime/ thriller like me, I am hooked. Some people might say it's too confusing and not realistic. Well, the title itself says " what if we sort out psychopaths in advance", you can't expect a simple plot, documentary movie. It delivers everything it says. It's too interesting and you can't miss a single minute of it. Please watch it and enjoy all the mind blowing twists and turns ( they will brainf..k you too). :)
MIND BLOWING!!

This type of series and movies are the reason why I just love this genres. And this series is such a masterpiece. Its dark, its raw, it just defines this genre in the best way.
REVIEW : This is a series that is not for the people with weak heart. If you love a series with happiness, with love, with perfect beautiful ending..then I will suggest that you should not watch it.
Coming back to the series, right from the beginning, from the very first scene...each and every scene and episode is connected till the very ending, the very last scene. Right from the beginning..when the story starts.. slowly you start getting questions with each and every passing scene... and by episode 12-14 you are just filled with it. You are confused, you don't understand anything about what is happening, who is doing what, why its happening and many more such questions. And right from then you start getting the answers. All the dots start to get connected. Everything starts making sense. All your questions starts getting the answers for what you were wanting so long. All your assumptions starters getting to prove wrong. Everything you have thought just turns out to be wrong. You have to watch the very last episode..the very last scene so get all the answers. To get everything clear. To understand the story totally.
This is a type of series where you have to keep your eyes and brain open. And if you don't understand korean then you have to make sure that you read each and every word that you see in the subtitles. Because if you miss anything, then you will not be able to understand anything after that... That's how connected each and everything is in this series ?.
I must say that makers did a great job. The way everything is portrayed..its just brilliant. Actually I honestly don't know what is the correct word to describe the brilliance of this series. Its just mind blowing ?.
ACTORS AND ACTING : Everyone, literally everyone did a great work. No matter how big or small was their appearance was, but every character have a strong impact. Non of the character was just for nothing. All the characters were equally important and meaningful. There was no unnecessary drama. That's what make it more amazing. You don't feel bore.
The actors did not just played the roles, they lived that. You can feel their emotions through their eyes. All the pain can be seen in their eyes.
LEE SEUNG GI (JUNG BA REUM): He is the person around whom the whole story moves. The main person who is the creator or the destroyer.. whatever you say?. The acting skill of this man, my God. He is just amazing in what he is doing. The way he presents his character..the ups..the downs..the shock. Everything he feels just gets transferred o you with his eyes. You find him wrong in the starting but then by the end you feel pity on him. You feel sorry for him. You feel that he didn't do whatever he did with his own wish, he just didn't had any option but just to do all those things even if he was wrong.
LEE HEE JOON (KO MOO CHI) : This is his revenge story. The person who suffered right from the childhood because of no reason. He is the one who did everything to solve the mysteries. To get the people punished because of who his life was filled with pain. You can see that pain right in his eyes, in his body language, in each and everything he do. You can see his desperation of how bad he want to get them punished.
PARK JOO HYUN (OH BONG YI) : The girl who faced a horrible incident in her childhood and slowly overcome it with the passing time. She is brave, courageous, loving, caring, understanding. She is the common but special girl. She one of the main character that holds a lot of meaning in the entire drama. A girl who struggled a lot. Bear all the physical and mental pain and still stands up to fight again.
KYUNG SOO JIN (CHOI HONG JOO) : According to me, this is the person who the most mysterious. You have to watch the entire series to know about this person. She will keep on giving you surprises till the very end. By the way she is very beautiful ?.
KWON HWA WOON (SUNG YO HAN) : The most innocent character of the entire series. The one with whom everything was so unfair. Like everything. He was the one who was just caught in the middle of every thing. Right or wrong. Who is the main character who is involved with everything in a different way.
BACKGROUND MUSIC : The music is so deep, dark and it totally matches with the plot..the storyline. It adds more meaning and intensity to it. Its so catchy.
RE-WATCH VALUE : If you ask me, honestly I may not watch it again as its a thriller-suspense-mystry series. And one you discover everything in the first time.. watch it again for the second time is no fun. But yes, if you are watching it with a friend then ya..you can watch it again. It will be fun to see his reaction with every surprise ?.
CONCLUSION : This is a must watch for every suspense lover. Just don't miss it.

Good TV Series
thomasafik7 April 2021
One of the best series of 2021 and in history!
maarcoscisterna4 June 2021
This time they crossed the line, but in a good way. It is a series that is too strong, although it has some censorship, it causes a lot of impact when it comes to watching it. It makes the viewer tremble in the armchair, intriguing to know more and more, in that aspect each chapter has something new to deliver through its mysterious narrative and twists in the plot that will make your head spin and you will have the need to know what it happens in the next episode. This is what causes Mouse: intrigue, confusion, sadness, drama, anger, nervousness and a lot of panic. 100% recommended and of course not suitable for sensitive people!
Best psychology thriller

This is best, give it a try
Misss2530 June 2021
This is so far the most awesome crime thriller I ever came across. Really hats off to the person who wrote this or think of the extremely great concept. Actually, I really don't have words for this or words won't be enough to explain this drama. Since I'm crime thriller and twist lover, I pick this up as soon as I heard about its hyped. But,as I said, words aren't enough, the hype felt weak infront of this. How can someone write a drama with so many plot twists? Like seriously! There are about 20+ twists and none of them feels like irrelevant. These all felt like biggest plot twists. What else can I say? I just loved it and this is the best crime thriller for me right now.
great

The best Korean drama ever

Good, But Not Amazing
laurynl8 June 2021
The first quarter of the series is really good and gripping. Then it kind of goes down a "huh?" path, like the writers had to come up with so many twists that they're just pulling them out of their hats. I love twists; but a lot of them didn't seem to make much sense. Overall, the acting is good, though, as well as the CGI used. If you like to be shocked, but don't worry about taking things TOO seriously, I think you should give it a shot.
Overrated K-Soap Opera
solminafya5 October 2023
Just another K-Drama hyper popularized by the mindless K-fanaticism
I tried really hard to enjoy this show. But it's boring AF, unoriginal, illogical, childish, amateurish, and as plausible as a low quality anime!
Acting overall is good at best, so is music and cinematography. While editing is a disaster! Story is all over the place. Plot is built on endless unfounded coincidences. Twists are there just for the sake of it
Overall, it's a mess hidden by a Korean flair
Make no mistake. I have nothing against K-Drama. I have a few favs among them. But this is definitely a trap that I fell into, and regret it!
It it was exactly one tenth its length, maybe it'd have had a chance. It has some mild entertainment here and there, but it's spread so thin that it becomes bland and unnoticeable.

Best psychological thriller EVER made, not just kdrama
WhereRmydreamers2 July 2021
Honest to God. This is the best serial killer show among all the materials I've watched- including Hollywood stuff.
Mouse does not shy away from the ugly aspects of psychopathy unlike other Kdramas that like to tease and not show or blatantly misdiagnose. This daring move makes the show into a gritty, gory, fast-paced thriller with realistic characters and interesting relationships.
All the characters are well-developed and human. The parallels between the Headhunter and the current events, the intersecting lives of the surgeon and the cop and the interactions between predator and prey are all captured masterfully.
The BEST 2021 SHOW I've watched so far. What're you doing? GO Watch it NOW.

Absolutely unique and mind-boggling. Don't miss this.
ranapreet225520 May 2021
For the 1st 11 episodes, you will be like, what the heck is going on, are they stretching this? Why the hell am I still watching this? After 11th episode, the show takes a completely different spin and is bound to blow your head off.
I promise you that this is one series you won't regret watching.
I also believe that this is not the end of this series. The creators are hinting at season 2 with new characters with story line set after the events of first season in the last 30 seconds of the finale episode after end titles.
Brace yourself, I believe that this is not the end. I also think that the show could've been simply 10 episodes long instead of 20 episodes long.

Exagerated in every sense except for excellent acting
ayserisi31 July 2021
The story is unrealistic and ideological with many inconsistencies and exagerations. They tried to make something spectacular to a degree that it is annoying. The series also suffers from editing errors even though the cinematography is rather good. I also have to credit the excellent acting by the lead actors. It is just disappointing that a huge potential is wasted by pretentious script writers. The only part I actually enjoyed was the dilemma and character development of the officer trying to cope with emotions.
Best dark thriller ever - Seung Gi's best work
melaniesijia22 May 2021
I cannot never ever stop raving about this drama - amazing story plot, terrific cast acting, a mind-bending drama with unexpected twists. Beautiful cinematography with every little detail and clue being crucial to the drama development. The raw acting and emotion expressions by the lead actors are remarkable and commendable. A total masterpiece.
Surface of God level writing
saimahi15 July 2021
This is my first ever Kdrama and iam absolutely blown away by the story telling..writing...screenplay and BGM...what not everything is so perfect regarding this show.
Special mention to the lead actors...Jung Ba reum.. Ko Moochi...Bong YI... Director handled the suspense very well. A Must watch series for THRILLER fans...It will be full meals for sure.
