‘The Hunter with a Scalpel’ (Planned/Produced by STUDIO X + U | Produced by Soul Creative | Directed by Lee Jung-hoon | Written by Jo Han-young, Park Hyun-shin, Hong Yeon-yi, Jin Se-hyeok)is gathering attention by presenting overwhelming tension with each episode’s immersive story, and in the past 6th episode, it continued with an intense development that viewers could not take their eyes off for even a moment, drawing a heated response from viewers.The Yongcheon Police Department began to suspect that the first person to report the third murder case was Seo Se-hyun(played by Park Joo-hyun).To make matters worse, the montage completed based on the photo of the little girl found inside the body strangely resembles the current Se-hyun, heightening the tension by hinting that the investigation will gradually close in on him.Se-hyeon, who finally comes face to face with his father, Yoon Jo-gyun(played by Park Yong-woo), attempts to strike him, but is hit by a taser gun fired by the mysterious girl, Yoon Se-eun(played by Kim Gyu-na)and falls into Jo-gyun’s arms, marking the ending, heightening curiosity and adding a period to the unpredictable development.

Among these, the 7th episode released today(25th)is expected to bring a new phase as the only link in the serial murder case that had been in a labyrinth is revealed.It was revealed that the first and third victims ‘paths overlapped at Jo Gyun’s laundry.The released stills capture the attention of Jeong Jeong-hyeon(played by Kang Hoon)visiting the laundry with Jeon Chang-jin(played by Ryu Seung-soo).Jo Gyun still greets the two with a friendly smile, but Jeong-hyeon does not let go of his suspicions and closely observes his subtle changes in expression with sharp eyes, making the viewers tense.In addition, Chang-jin, who usually gets along well with Jo Gyun, is caught sitting alone with an awkward expression.It adds to the curiosity about the atmosphere in which their investigation was conducted, and it doubles the anticipation of whether Jeong-hyeon’s sharp intuition will be able to find a clue to the case hidden behind Jo Gyun’s mask.



In another still, Jung-hyun and Chang-jin, who have just finished their investigation, are caught accidentally running into Se-hyun in front of a laundromat, creating yet another layer of tension.Se-hyun, whose expression is sternly hidden under his hat pulled down low, gives off a darker vibe than usual, raising viewers ‘curiosity about what happened after the shocking encounter with Jo Gyun.The contrast between Jung-hyun looking at Se-hyun with worried eyes, Chang-jin delighting in their chance meeting, and Se-hyun’s dangerous gaze as if he’s hiding something makes viewers wonder whether Jung-hyun and Chang-jin will be able to notice Se-hyun’s suspicious behavior.

‘Hunter with a Scalpel’ presents a suspenseful drama where you can’t predict what will happen next, with the detective Jung Hyun gradually getting closer to the identity of the serial killer ‘The Tailor’ as each episode progresses, and the father and daughter hunting while hiding their own secrets.Will Jung Hyun be able to uncover the truth about ‘The Tailor’ and get closer to the truth?
