Lead cast: Go Hyun-jung, Jang Dong-yoon

Latest Nielsen rating: 6.9 per cent

While this is an official remake of the French series La Mante, viewers are more likely to be reminded of the big-screen classic The Silence of the Lambs, to which both are heavily indebted.

Go plays Jung Yi-shin, a woman who terrorised South Korea 25 years ago after she embarked on a series of vicious and distinctive slayings, targeting male sexual predators.
