Confession of Murder

In a city still haunted by a wave of unsolved murders, the passage of time does little to quiet the lingering dread. Fifteen years after the killings stopped, the crimes surge back into public consciousness when a strikingly handsome author releases a bestselling book that claims to detail every gruesome act. The publication ignites a frenzy of media speculation, legal debate, and public curiosity, raising uncomfortable questions about justice, memory, and the limits of the law.

The story follows Detective Choi, a seasoned officer whose career has been defined by a single, unresolved hunt. Carrying the weight of a personal failure that has left him both haunted and hardened, he is unexpectedly assigned the delicate task of safeguarding the enigmatic writer, whose scarred shoulder and charismatic presence make him a magnet for both sympathy and suspicion. As Choi navigates his renewed role, he must balance his professional instincts with a deep‑seated need for redemption, all while the spotlight forces him to confront the ghosts of his past.

Around them, the victims’ families gather, their grief sharpened into a thirst for vengeance that threatens to spill over into the public arena. The intense scrutiny draws a mysterious masked figure known only as “J,” who boldly claims a connection to the original crimes, further muddying the waters of guilt and innocence. The atmosphere crackles with tension, as moral lines blur and every character is forced to reckon with the unsettling possibility that truth may be more elusive than any confession. The film weaves a brooding, psychological thriller that explores how obsession, fame, and the relentless pursuit of closure can twist both the hunter and the hunted.
