Decision to Leave

CriticsCritics: 90
AudienceAudience: 7.5

After a man dies at the foot of a mountain, a detective investigates whether the fall was accidental, suicidal, or criminal. His attention turns to the dead man’s widow, whose calm presence and uncertain alibi draw him into an increasingly complicated case shaped by suspicion, attraction, and deception.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you prefer atmospheric Korean mysteries with romantic tension and ambiguity, especially The Handmaiden; Not for you if you need fast pacing, clear motives, or straightforward plotting.
