DARK FIGURE OF CRIME is a somewhat unremarkable true crime tale from South Korea, similar to MEMORIES OF MURDER but not on the same level. It involves Kim Yoon-seok (of stone-cold classics like THE CHASER and THE YELLOW SEA) as a detective reopening a cold case about a serial killer who claims to have murdered multiple other victims whose bodies have never been found. There are some flashbacks here but the majority is a cat-and-mouse psychological game between detective and killer, the latter played by the guy who was the crown prince in KINGDOM. Sedately paced but involving with it, this is a good watch for fans of the genre.
