4 Highly Underrated Thrillers Like “Longing For You” That Deserve More Love

With “Longing for You” all wrapped up, here are some recommendations for twisty thrillers that’ll keep you on the edge of your seat. Many of these shows flew seriously under the radar when they first came out, which is such a shame given how good they are. If you’re searching for murder, mystery, and perhaps a tiny dash of romance, then we have you covered below!

“365: Repeat The Year”

You know it’s good when it’s based on a novel with a clear-cut ending. “365: Repeat The Year” was drawn from the 2004 Japanese novel “Repeat” by Kurumi Inui and tells the story of a group of people who go back in time and seem to be mysteriously murdered because of it. Meet the hero, Ji Hyung Joo (the seriously underrated and handsome Lee Joon Hyuk). He’s a detective — and a good one at that — who has just suffered the trauma of seeing his cop partner murdered by a criminal who, by all rights, should never have been allowed out of jail. While grieving, he gets a phone call from the mysterious Dr. Shin (Kim Ji Soo) who says that she can offer him a chance to re-do it all: to go back in time and change everything.

Hyung Joo is skeptical at first but realizes that she’s telling the truth when she’s able to predict the next day’s news events with perfect accuracy. At her invitation, he arrives at her walled-off compound and meets the nine other people she has selected to go back in time. All of them are desperate. All of them are hiding something. Meet the heroine: Shin Ga Hyun (Nam Ji Hyun). She’s the author of Hyung Joo’s favorite webtoon and also paraplegic, the victim of a hit-and-run driver. Heading back in time allows her to prevent the accident from happening. She’s elated, until people start to die. One by one, the 10 people who went back in time are being killed. Hyung Joo and Ga Hyun team up to catch the killer. But how can they outwit someone who seems to be able to see through time?

Why you’ll love it: This is the perfect mix of action and suspense. All the actors hit it out of the park, and the drama doesn’t go off the rails in the last quarter. If you’re a mystery fan, you’re going to love this!
