## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

Seoul. Perpetual rain. A severed limb in transit. 

A detective, barely holding himself together, faces professional ruin and personal grief, when a serial killer case lands on his desk. Body parts appear, each clue more perplexing than the last.

A late-90s Korean neo-noir with a distinctly Cronenbergian bent.

**Mood tags**: body-horror, dread, neon-soaked, paranoid
