I binge-watched the Korean drama The Price of Confession.

Synopsis)
An Yoon-soo (Jeon Do-yeon), imprisoned on suspicion of murdering her husband, is approached by Mo Eun (Kim Go-eun), known as “the Witch,” who offers to confess to the crime in her place.

Yoon-soo, who is raising a young child, accepts the proposal and succeeds in getting out of prison. However, the price she must pay is the murder of a certain person.

Main Cast)
Jeon Do-yeon, Kim Go-eun, Park Hae-soo, Jin Seon-kyu

Genre)
Mystery Thriller

I’m not usually a big fan of this genre, but once I started watching, I was immediately drawn in and ended up finishing it in one go.

What left the strongest impression on me was the role played by Jeon Do-yeon, now in her 50s.

Personally, I find it very interesting to see how actresses continue to express their unique charm as they grow older.

In this respect, her slightly bold yet stylish wardrobe, along with her bright and proactive character, suited her perfectly—though opinions may vary depending on the viewer’s age and preferences.

Meanwhile, Kim Go-eun delivered an outstanding performance in the complex role intertwined with psychopathic elements.

Although the series consists of 12 episodes, it’s so gripping that it’s hard to imagine anyone taking more than 12 days to finish it. It’s a highly recommended drama.
