Signal


Signal Trailer
iflix Malaysia

Korean cop show about a cold case squad. Two coppers start communicating over walkie talkies, except the are operating at two different points in time, 25 years apart. Totally unbelievable, but it makes for a good story. 

Kim Hye-su

It got a little slow and soap-opera-y at times, but the very attractive Kim Hye-su made up for it. It's kind of ridiculous how much I enjoyed watching her.

The above trailer has subtitles, but it's very short, so here's a longer one. No subtitles, but it gives a better idea of the flavor of the show.


[#시그널] 6분 하이라이트!
tvN drama

Jack tells me that a few years ago there was a discussion in ham radio circles about some kind of delayed radio transmissions. A little Googling turned up this story on VICE:

Radio Ghosts Have Haunted the Airwaves for Nearly a Century


These ghost signals are only few seconds old, not fifteen years. On the other hand, no one has figured out just what is causing them. And delays can only account for receiving messages from out of the past, we still have no method of sending messages back in time.

All of which sounds a whole lot like another movie I saw many moons ago:


Frequency - Original Theatrical Trailer

Frequency came out in 2000 and was something of a hit. Wikipedia has the story.

On Netflix, from 2016, 16 episodes.
