The Raincoat Killer: Chasing a Predator in Korea (2021)

Incredibly Interesting

Being from the US, we have a lot of exposure to serial killers, but we very rarely hear about other countries' serial killers. This was a very well thought-out and put together documentary about a very sick man. Hearing from the actual police officers, detectives, forensic scientists, and profilers that originally handled the case was quite fascinating. I thought that the actor reenactments of some of the crimes spliced with real footage and interviews was very well done. Some of the actual footage was incredibly creepy and made my spine crawl. Netflix did a superb job, and it's very hard to stop watching once you start.

captivating

I have watched a lot of those type of documentary-style stories and this one is a very good one. How they lead the story is made really good and intersting.

How was Korea economically doing at that time and how has it effected the society?
They use the society's and economic's situation to lead the story and to tell the very story of Yoo Young Chul.

To hear from all the people involved in this case, such as police officers, profilers, laywers, and indirect victims was very interesting and also suspenseful and sad. You can see and feel their emotions when they were talking about it.
The interviews, reenactments and real footages are well portioned. What I also like was how they addressed the impact, that this whole case has on the society, the national police system, for example. And the title is also well chosen.
