Inspector Koo

Inspector Koo | Official Trailer | Netflix [ENG SUB]
The Swoon
Korean serial killer murder mystery, except it's not really a mystery because we know who the killer is almost from the beginning. What we don't know is how she is going to be caught.

We have insurance company investigative team looking to uncover evidence of fraud. Sometimes they look at deaths. Was it really an accident, or was it suicide? Sometimes it's a little difficult to tell, so they pull in Inspector Koo to help them out. The inspector is a walking disaster. She's an alcoholic video gamer. Her apartment is waist deep in trash. But when properly motivated she has analytical skills second to none, skills that are apparently lacking in the rest of the team. Or maybe they are just so hide-bound by tradition and manners that they dare not express any but the most conventional opinions. Inspector Koo doesn't care.

All of the lead roles are women. The investigative team's leader is a woman, as is her boss, who we suspect of being an evil s.o.b. The killer is a woman as well. Their underlings are all men. Are there any others? I think I've covered all the major players.

New on Netflix, 12 episodes, one released each week. I think we're about half way through.
