Are there any True Mystery/Not Necessarily Crime Dramas?

I have only seen the Suspect - Yes - Cold Eyes is in my Watchlist! Yes - I need to watch it.

This looks like a great list, thank you! I’ve seen some of these shows around but never got to watching them.

If you’re looking for a classic, there’s a legendary crime drama starring Chow Yun Fat called The Bund. I don’t think they have it here sadly, so the only options are YouTube with Cantonese and no subs, the official TVB mobile app with excessive advertisements, or a rather poor English dub. Hopefully some day it might get the digital release it deserves internationally!

I would also recommend Project Gutenberg, another Chow Yun Fat film that’s best described as a sort of heist film. This one follows an elite international counterfeiting operation across their maiden heist.

If you’re looking for a good mystery I would recommend Healer and Kill It.

Okay, so this one is definitely in the crime category, but it has an interesting overarching mystery involved. This is exactly the kind of show that I would have loved back when I still watched American TV, and the vibe is so familiar that even when my recent houseguest saw it paused on my screen and asked if it was one of my Korean shows, I legitimately almost told him “No”. I had become so nicely lost in it, I had forgotten that it was a show that required me to read subtitles.

Now that I have met the actor in Falling for Innocence - I will have to watch Heartless City!

I have to warn you; I heard is so painfully hard to watch That drama, i didn’t even ventured there. Hope you can handle it.

@lutra already mentioned this one, but I just finished it and felt the need to gush about it. It was SO good, and I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in this genre. There are some crimes that must be solved along the way, but the mystery is so much more than that.

I also want to say that Korea does the genres of crime, mystery, thriller (or any combo among them) really, really well. I’ve loved every single one I’ve watched.

I know I said in my previous post that I have loved every mystery drama I’ve watched so far, but I forgot about that first one you shared (Mr. Temporary). I started it a long time ago but could not get into it, so it was dropped.
