Yeah, this is the first case I guessed right too. I was almost swayed by the killer but the brilliant lady who did the ven diagram thing at the end showing the killer in the center swayed me back to my original guess.

I got it right too, albeit only just. When she started crying I very nearly considered the employee lady instead and couldn't make up my mind between them for the longest time. The glut of evidence for the secretary beforehand was what kept me from completely disregarding her, though. The hairpin that was found by Hyunmoo near the end, and the venn diagram sealed it, yeah. Surprised so many people voted for Jinho at the end though.

It's not really suprising when the detective did it a few other were like 'welp', trust an expert.

First correct answer for me, though my logic was wrong. When Jang pulled the secretary aside on the CCTV I thought she was bribing the secretary to kill the victim. I thought the lighter came from Jang, who got it from the same club that she kept taking the other guy to. Thought it was funny the detective got it wrong, but not surprising. It's not like during his real cases there's producers writing a story where everyone's suspicious and planting red herrings trying to point the target on 5 other people.

Is broadcaster the Korean term for celebrity? Just finished season 2 of the Genius, drat I was happy to see Sangmin win but not sure if they deserved it. The Quattro match was lame, the password guessing was amazing though it would've blown my mind if Yohwan had been correct when they made their first guess, given the bizarre questions. e: Here's a fun video of a day in the life of Jinho, also featuring Yohwan, Doohee, Hongchul, and the driver from the first episode of Crime Scene - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nU_IoWEAhQ denzelcurrypower fucked around with this message at 04:49 on Jun 20, 2014 |

Episode 7 of the now streamlined Crime Scene is now subbed. Guess we can spoiler everything now that the criminal is revealed in one episode? Episode 7: Big holy crap to that phone in the poster, that was a hilarious reveal. Also big ups to the production team, who eliminated the fat and extended the episode by 20 minutes to still keep all that good twisty finger-pointing meat in the show. For those curious about the differences between the two episode and one episode format: Combined the evidence presentation and open questioning session into one, eliminated the mid-show criminal guess and eliminated all the recapping. They also extended the episode. Now instead of two 75 minute episodes, it's one 95 minute crime. Teek fucked around with this message at 22:42 on Jun 26, 2014 |

Loved that the cast tore that prison apart looking for clues. They're really getting better at looking through everything. Makes sense that a prison would have a lot of hidden poo poo, hilariously they still missed a lot of stuff on their first pass through.

I got it right mainly because I noticed the glow when they turned off the lights. The camera kinda focused on it tho  I was just so happy to see Sunggyu again (even though he didn't play that big a part in the investigation)

So much better this way. Hope it has the viewer numbers to continue until they feel it's had enough for a break. Hope to see this format spread to countries where there are people and the media mentality to make something this quality possible without ruining it.

Yeah the one episode format works so much better. Eliminated most of the fat and we just get a solid 90 minutes of twists and revelations. It's pretty clear at this point that Ji-Yoon and Jin-Ho are the deductive stars of the game. If I were on the show, I'd just side with whoever they picked, which is why this one ended up being so tense.

I'll be honest, I thought it was Sunggyu, his alibi seemed so flimsy and strange.

Such a good episode. Seeing Sunggyu again was cool. Also the producers are getting better at giving everyone motives and weapons without it being contrived. I guess it helps that the setting was a prison.

I think the key to this game is not putting it into a real world setting at all but working out what producers intended to be evidence, alibis, or red herrings. Sunggyu's alibi was dumb but it was clear they intended the (lol) broken mirror shards in the victim's room to be his alibi

It's not his fault that the Lawyer and Hyunmoo were being dense about the lifer having no opportunity. I mean seriously how was he even supposed to know where the victim would be?

That was a good episode. I think my only problem with it was that there was no way to actually deduce the murder weapon without it feeling like a huge stretch. If someone had said "The murder weapon is this" and then laid out what ended up being the solution, nobody would have believed them at all. I had actually suspected that the reason they showed how dark it was served the purpose to imply that the murderer couldn't see and murdered the wrong prisoner. I thought the gangster was the real target and they knocked him out and killed the subordinate in the confusion. I think it was more interesting the way it went with the crayon, however.

I don't think they were being dense, Jinho had no good arguments against Jiyoon other than the strong motive. But then again he had a pretty good motive too. He was grasping hard at straws with stuff like the bible being the weapon. But the worst (hilarious) part is how much he was spazzing around, it was worse than the driver in the first case. Anyway this was a really fun episode.

This show is a murder mystery. A huge chunk of the fun is speculating as they go, even if the killer is revealed in the same ep. I usually know a new episode is up by checking this thread. It would be fair to at least tag the first few posts after a new one comes out. Why are spoiler tags even an issue?

I adore the effort that went into the sudden format change. Felt the setting was weaker than the other mysteries though, the guests weren't that great either. I was expecting Sunggyu to have more presence.

I agreed with Jinho that it was Larceny this ep. There was a lot of evidence against Jinho but he never left his cell all day, so it was silly to focus on him quite that much... I mean, he knew nothing about the upcoming blackout. The prior knowledge pointed to Pickpocket and Larceny, which is probably why they made the weapon so hard to find on Larceny, because it was really narrowed down by that. But the fact that Larceny knew the blackout was coming and was in the fight where the guard lost the taser was pretty huge evidence against her just the same. I think Jinho focused a bit too hard on building alliances and not enough time on clearing himself. But he was right, soo... you can't say he was that bad. That's what makes this game more interesting than I'd expect it to be, the way convincing other people plays such a big part.

I mean, really, they were saying Lifer wandered out during a blackout he didn't know was coming, and then successfully killed a guy in the pitch dark, even though the victim wasn't even in his own cell at the time. It makes no sense, but somehow that folded book tricked everyone, haha. Two more random asides: lol the real phone being in the poster and nobody being able to tell NS looked so cute with that boy haircut

This is why I was convinced it was the larcenist; she kept saying that the boss had put the liquor in her cell, so I figured she had meant to kill him.

Thanks we started watching it and I already kind of regret not stopping at S1. They seemed to trade off a likable cast from top to bottom for better players and sneakier games. I feel like strategically adding Jinho and Sangmin creates interesting situations in the game, but it might just be to preserve some sense of continuity and likability among fans. Did I mention how unlikable half of this cast is off the bat?

Most of the season 2 cast aren't as memorable as the season 1 cast as well. I can easily recall Sunggyu, Poong, Kyungran, Jungmoon, Changyeop, Kim Gura, and simple (only name I can't remember).

Part of the reason I liked this game is that elements of Korean culture (particularly among the upper class) allows the show to avoid the pitfalls of such a game if it were set in America- dickbag players, bad attitudes, fighting, cursing etc. S2 is a lot more like we'd expect if a US producer selected a cast. Can this show ever top Sunggyu's letter(s) to Sangmin? It has certainly peaked. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwvS5_mNGFk&t=40s Shammypants fucked around with this message at 20:07 on Jul 3, 2014 |
