It’s the long standing debate about whether we humans are born the way we are or perhaps environmental influences have far more of an impact on the formation of personhood.
Thanks for reviewing these Taiwanese dramas! I feel like many of them fly under the radar. And no wonder Chris Wu looked so familiar! His role here in COPYCAT KILLER was far more complex than his role in SHARDS OF HER, a drama I actually liked better. CK definitely feels more sensationalized, which makes sense given how media/news are such a core component of the story.
I will have to revisit THE VICTIM'S GAME. I think when it first came out, I watched the first couple episodes and then for some reason forgot to return to it. My memory is usually pretty fuzzy, but Joseph Chang's character left an impression.
I'm also currently watching LOVELY VILLAIN, another Taiwanese drama. The first two episodes have intrigued me and I'm hopeful that this will be another decent show.

I do agree that Shards of Her is the better and more original piece of storytelling. I will check out Lovely Villain since you brought it up.
Thanks for commenting.
