Redrum 327



Originally a Korean Manhwa by Ko Ya Sung, Redrum 327 (usually read as three two seven) deals with what happens when what should be a normal weekend getaway rapidly descends into a night of murder, as a dark past comes to haunt our seven protagonists. Worse yet, this is nothing supernatural, but a work of human hands.

The story starts with a somewhat unstable combination of the following seven characters, headed off to a remote holiday house far away fom the city (pictured right).


 * Gahui - The Naive Newcomer with a dark past which has been blocked out of her memory. Said lost memory, however, contributes to her Claustrophobia.
 * Gihu -
 * Ha -
 * Hyeri -
 * Jeongun -
 * Jueun - The Ice Queen
 * Taien - All round nice guy that attempts to reconcile the difference between the group and Gahui.

Suffice to say, describing them anymore runs the risk of spoiling the story. However, one thing for sure: none of them can run from their past any more.

As always with any work concerning death and mystery in the storyline, Spoilers Ahoy! Proceed to reading the tropes at your own risk.

Tropes in this work:

 * All Love Is Unrequited: Hyeri to Taien.
 * Beware the Nice Ones: Hyeri can be as unstable as a time-bomb if you dare approach her Love Interest Taien
 * Clingy Jealous Girl: Hyeri. Just...Hyeri.
 * Contrived Coincidence:
 * Dark and Troubled Past: Gahui.
 * Karma Houdini: Played straight initially, later subverted. Arguably also Deconstructed,
 * Knight Templar: It seemed unlikely for anyone to be so.
 * {BestFriends Barring Gahui, the other six characters start off as this.
