Link - Episode 1 Recap and Review: “Crime and Mystery in a different way”





I’ve been waiting for this drama to air, the first one who was announced to lead the role was Kim Seon-Ho, if I remember correctly. But months after that announcement the cast was changed and the lead role was given to Yeo Jin-Goo who starred in the mystery thriller drama “Beyond Evil” aired in 2021. Kim Seon Ho declined to play the role due to schedule conflicts, and Lee Joon-Gi also declined. The female lead role will be portrayed by Moon Ga-Young, who also stars on the 2020-2021 Drama Series “True Beauty”.


The pilot episode of Link aired last Monday on tvN. In just one episode, you will be given a lot of mystery you need to resolve from how they are link, if she was really his sister, why does her mother and grandmother knows how to dispose a body and clean blood stain, what happened to her sister before, why does the link between the siblings started again after 18 years, that are just some things I wanted to know as the story progresses.


The story started showing Eun Gye-Hoon, played by Yeo Jin-Goo, was a chef in a restaurant when he suddenly felt sad and tears flowed to his eyes. He then collapsed because of what happened. Since then, his emotions have become inconsistent. He laughs and cries in a situation where he shouldn’t do that. He knows what is happening to him, according to him it is an emotional link between him and her twin sister. The emotional link was more common to twins but he isn’t sure why he felt this again since her sister was dead, or so he thought since the link was gone 13 years ago when her sister went missing.


He then met the unlucky woman in life No Da-Hyun, played by Moon Ga-Young, who thinks was his sister. Though it was not confirmed, he just has the moments that he thinks that maybe his sister was alive. That's why everyone who he felt had the same emotion as what he felt was his sister. This drama was more than the link, there’s food and also there’s mystery and crime. The combination of these aspects really made the story more interesting. The fact that there is a super.


The story continues, because of the inconsistent emotion of Gye-Hoon, he decided to open his own restaurant in the neighbourhood he once lived in hopes he will find her sister there. Across from the restaurant he was building, was the house of No Da-Hyun. The connection between the two became a little bit interesting as well. Is she really his sister? That's what we will find out in the next episode.


Da-Hyun thought that he killed Mr. Lee Jin-Geun, who was stalking her for a while and even followed her to her hometown. Jin-Geun tries to talk to Da-Hyun but she doesn’t want to and she ends up unconscious when she hits her head on the table. When she woke up, she saw Jin-Geun already dead on the floor. She tries to surrender herself to the police but because the Police Station was a little bit busy she went home and saw her mother and grandmother looking at the dead body. She then told them what happened and her mother and grandmother decided to dispose of the body. They put the body inside the refrigerator and put it outside waiting for the truck her mother gets. But Gye-Hoon thought that the refrigerator was them so they put it back in their restaurant with the body inside it. And there the first episode ended.

As a mystery-thriller fanatic, this was good. This really shook my brains off wondering what will happen next. With the combination of a fantasy or extraordinary phenomenon, it makes the story more flavorful. How about you do you like this drama?
