Profilers team up to take down serial killers in tvN’s Criminal Minds

What is it with guys in uniform that makes them so attractive, ’cause damn, Lee Jun-ki (Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo) looks good. When I first heard that there was going to be a Korean remake of Criminal Minds, I was interested because it’s an old favorite of mine among the many procedural shows out there and also because the production companies behind the remake have really solid credits to their name: NEW produced hit films Miracle in Cell No. 7Roaring Currents, and Train to Busan, and Taewon Entertainment is known for IRIS and the Marrying the Mafia trilogy. And then, they go ahead and cast Lee Jun-ki, and I was completely sold.

 

The premise of the American show is pretty basic: Criminal Minds revolves around a team of federal agents who profile criminals in order to catch them. It’s a long-running show in its twelfth season, and inevitably, the cases can get repetitive, but I think its saving grace is the rapport between the team members of the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit. There are some really cute relationships in the original series—like between Morgan and Penelope, or Morgan and Reid (why did you have to leave Morgan?!)—so I’m hoping the Korean remake can replicate those aspects of the show, especially if they’re considering a multi-season format as was reported in earlier articles.

 

Production is currently underway and the following stills have been released picturing the cast on set, giving us brief glimpses of our team of profilers, as well as a frail-looking Park Geun-hyung (Because I Love You), who will play the director of the fictional agency NCI. Lee Jun-ki’s team members will include Sohn Hyun-joo (Three Days), Moon Chae-won (Goodbye Mr. Black), Lee Sun-bin (Missing 9), and Go Yoon (Monster).

 

The station hasn’t confirmed Criminal Minds’s place on its schedule yet, but they’re in talks to have the remake premiere in July in their new Wednesday-Thursday slot. tvN, you’ve given us a good American remake (The Good Wife) and a crappy one (Entourage)—let’s have the pendulum swing back to good, shall we?

Didn't realize they were doing a Korean version (I don't keep up with KDramas that much). The original got quite graphic over the years. How much can they get away with in Korea? I hope that the violence isn't too over the top.

i guess they'll just do remake from the original's season 1hurrplz.png

For some reason I had created this Criminal Minds episode in my head about an incident in a Kpop concert in the US and the original team gets the help of a young detective prodigy played by EXID's Hani (as she is an it-girl with fluency in English).

 

Never predicted a Korean version of the show, though.

 

Welcome to the thread dear, wish we could spazz tgthr during the premiere soon hurrplz.png

Taewon Ent together with Cheongju city council and Cheongju film commission just held a press conference at 31st May, 2pm local time in Cheongju City Hall regarding the shooting scenes that will take place in the city from June 6th June to 8th June.

 

 Along with the other 3 cast I have mentioned earlier, Kim Young Chul's name also mentioned. So I suppose, he will also take part. 2 shoots will be filmed and the cost is estimated to be around KRW 49M. About 100 crews already in the city for a month in preparation for next week filming. Opportunities will be given to Cheongju university (theater department) students to take part as extras. They will need about 100 extras

 

They will actively cooperated with the locals through partial control and full control from 10 pm to 5 am from 6th to 8th June. The filming will take place between Sajik-dong and Daegyo. Map
