Three kids from an orphanage have turned up dead, all drugged with
magic mushrooms. Investigating the case, sloppy yet terribly effective
detective Kim (Park Yong Woo) repeatedly runs into the mysterious
photographer Jung Ho (Kim Sang Kyung), who might be nothing short of a
saint, but he is also deeply troubled and actually might be the killer -
and he becomes detective Kim's prime suspect after he learns that he has
actually taken custody of one of the girls from the orphanage, Su Yeon
(Han Bo Hae).
Then though, while Jung Ho is in police custody, Su Yeon is kidnapped,
and a race against time begins, with the police gathering clue after clue
that might lead to the girl and Jung Ho using his telepathic powers to get
to her, way before the police of course. The serial killer now turns out
to be Yoo-Jin, the woman from the adoption board responsible for the
orphanage, and she's just about to kill Su Yeon in an abandoned building
somewhere in the middle of nowhere when Jung Ho interferes. But as he and
the woman fight, the whole abandoned building catches fire, and though
Jung Ho defeats Yoo-Jin, he and Su Yeon might not make it out alive - when
finally detective Kim arrives - but all he cn do is to save the girl while
Jung Ho, a saint after all, is allowed to die a hero's death ...
Cheesy serial killer film with a esoteric touch that somehow doesn't
sit too well with the rest of the film, and instead of adding another
dimension to the plot it derives the film of much of its impact and makes
it into a collection of clichés. What we learn from this is probably that
mindreaders and serial killers don't go together all that well ...
