Joel Keller Decider Dec 8
The Price Of Confession moves a bit slow, but the series is setting up a situation that we haven’t seen before, at least to our memory, and is making sure viewers get as much background as they can get to give the situation the most dramatic impact.

The Price of Confession is a forgettable and highly disappointing affair that is far too long to be enjoyable. Go to Full Review Pierce Conran South China Morning Post Dec 5
3.5/5
Hard to imagine the show without leads Jeon and Kim, who both lend an aura of respectability to a story that on occasion skirts close to being trashy fun rather than a brooding psychological thriller Go to Full Review Karina Adelgaard Heaven of Horror Dec 5
3/5
...the story is fascinating, and the premise is solid, but it is also very long. Even too long. For me, anyway. Go to Full Review Sarah Musnicky But Why Tho? A Geek Community Dec 5

Bianca L 5d A gripping introduction that I thought would surely fall flat halfway, but blossomed so beautifully. A masterful performance by Kim Go-Eun and Park Hae-Soo. The twist was a little bizarre, but I was sold by the acting. See more Renee H @Renee.G 6d Koreans are brilliant at producing! Binge watched this so quickly. Leaves you hooked. I thought the two main actresses were great! See more Varsha T @VarshaTM Jan 27 One of the best i watched lately... Very gripping See more el c @elcoach Jan 8 There is many reasons a series can be good and in this case the frame of the storyline is great, some of the acting is crazy good and did like some the camera shots and music. Thats enough to forgive the writers adding too much complexity as with bit more drama and bit less detective stuff I would give it five stars. Still the gaze of Mo Eun at the hospital bed when she is hearing the news from the room mate she safed..... thats silence of the lambs quality See more Margret A @MAGGIE305 Dec 20 It was absolutely engaging for me. Very emotional as well. However, the ending part was a bit lacking. The real killer of Au yun' husband ought to have been punished. Overall, it was a good watch See more Harvey James F Dec 19 It was a decent thrilling crime series!! Kudos! See more Read all reviews
