Take a crime thriller with cops and serial killers throw in a supernatural element and what do we get? A masterpiece, yes Signal is truly a masterpiece. The lead actors and the plot do the trick. There is no need for fashionable costumes, breathtaking locations, kisses and clingy romance like in other K Dramas. Especially Jo Jin Woong as Lee Jea Han, the honest cop has excelled in his role. He is clumsy, he is vulnerable but he is also genuine and he is honest. He is not that smart Sherlock Holmes type of detective but he cares deeply. Every time he cried I cried with him. A life time performance.
Watch it if you like fast paced crime thrillers added with the supernatural.
