OCN thriller Reset’s prosecutor and angel

by girlfriday

They’re not the most informative teasers and stills, but aren’t they pretty? Cable network OCN’s newest crime thriller Reset (formerly known as Ten Days Ago or Crying Game) has been trickling out a still here, a poster there, and we finally have two short character teasers featuring our leads Chun Jung-myung (Man of Honor) and Kim So-hyun (Suspicious Housekeeper). She plays two roles in the drama — his first love who was murdered when they were fifteen, and a fifteen-year-old in the present day. These two almost played a similar set of roles when Chun was offered the lead in I Miss You, but then again, whose childhood first love hasn’t Kim So-hyun played?

The 10-episode crime thriller stars Chun Jung-myung as the hero whose teenage scars led him to become a prosecutor who stubbornly only works cases in the violent crimes division. With ten days left before the statute of limitations runs out on his first love’s murder, he catches the killer’s trail, and thus begins the life-or-death ten-day pursuit.

It’s described as a “memory chase thriller,” which I guess means he’ll be piecing together the past case as we go forward in the present timeline. Besides playing the first love who dies in the past, Kim So-hyun also plays a young girl who gets sucked into the case in the present day. If she’s inexplicably a doppelgänger, then perhaps she confuses the killer as much as the prosecutor. Or worse, she’s a moving target for the same reason.

The poster copy is the same as the tagline in the teasers: “I had erased everything. Even her…” All Kim So-hyun does is cry, but man she cries prettily. I’m hoping that because it’s on OCN (and also a nice taut 10-episode length), it’ll actually be a scary heart-pounding chase that’s filled with action and suspense. Seriously, why’s it so hard to get a suspenseful suspense thriller out of dramaland these days?

Reset follows God’s Quiz 4 and premieres August 10.

Ah, Kim So-hyun. She's doing so well - the way she's going, she'll be every bit as popular in Korea as Park Shin-hye by the time she grows up, even if it's weird to think that I can see the makings of a leading lady in a child of 15.

wow, there will many dramas which will air only one episode a week....RESET, HIGH SCHOOL - LOVE ON, THE THREE MUSKETEERS, THE MERMAID, GOLDEN TOWER, etc...
I have a suggestion, why don't you add these dramas to the currently drama list here? you could add a new caption, ONE EP./WEEK DRAMAS,and list them all there...and there are some good dramas airing on fridays-saturdays, too...

For what it worths, I like your idea of modernizing the "currently airing" section.

And it also does not include the Friday-Saturday dramas which are now showing up, such as Marriage, Not Dating as you noted.

This is one of the few upcoming dramas I am actually looking forward to. OCN seems to be able to avoid many of the tired old clichés more than the broadcast channels (hence only 10 episodes, perhaps :P )

I will watch because I like Crime thrillers dramas and OCN is practically the only channel in Korea that do them well.

Now, can I get the third season of both TEN and Vampire Prosecutor? You're killing me here OCN!

He is looking mighty fine.

Who is playing young him? He can't play the 15 year old PIE.
Nothing is listed on dwiki or hancinema.

He almost played in I Miss You? Wow that's news to me....
Kim So Hyun grows up nicely and really pretty.
If only Kim So Hyun or Kim Yoo Jung is a bit older I would like to have them as Korean Nodame instead of Yoona. They have amazing acting skills.

Idkw but I felt soooooo excited to see a drama without lovelines once in a while that I kinda feel I'll like...! since its OCN, I have such high hopes in them being able to deliver a top-notch mystery-solving drama! I'll def try to watch this one but I hope OCN remembers Vampire Prosecutor and TEN.. i miss those dramas so much I could cry :(

Okay, altough the story isn't new, the actors staring are so good that I won't mind. I'm ready for a travel full of angst and tears. I just hope the narrative won't disappoint me.

Ok, I seriously don't get how female actresses can cry prettily. When I cry I have snot mixed with tears running down my face and my face is 2x bigger the next day...but yesss Chun Jun Myung and my favorite child actress! OCN is really gearing it up with all these thriller/mystery/fantasy dramas lately :) can't wait~
