Drama Summary

‘The Kidnapping Day’ follows the story of a desperate father, Min-jun, who resorts to kidnapping to save his ailing daughter. But his plan is derailed when the parents of the girl he kidnapped end up murder victims.  As Min-jun navigates through this chaotic situation, he uncovers dark secrets and  unexpected twists. And as his “victim” becomes his skillful co-conspirator, he finds himself wanting to protect her at all costs.  The emotional depth of the characters and the mystery of their intertwined fates will keep you on the edge of your seat.

A Riveting Tale of Suspense and Emotion

‘The Kidnapping Day’ is a masterful surprise of a drama.  Rather than being the criminal thriller that I expected, it is an action drama with some medical sci-fi thrown in.  But it is not the gritty, action-heavy kind of drama that its name implies.  Instead, the heart of the drama revolves around a complex story and touching character development.  This fabulous 12 year old actress recently won the Best New Actress award  for this role.  And it is well-deserved.

‘The Kidnapping Day’ is rated 16+ for some violence, language, and sexual content, although I didn’t find it to be overly gory.  But the themes are ethically challenging and mature.  The drama weaves elements of suspense, emotion, and moral dilemmas, making it a compelling watch from start to finish. The relationship between the leads is the highlight of this one.  I give “The Kidnapping Day” a 9 out of 10 ramen.
