Hometown (홈타운) is a 2021 Thriller Cop Show drama that aired in South Korea by tvN. It's been made available throughout Asia through Viu, OnDemandKorea and iQIYI with appropriate regional subtitles. The drama stars Yoo Jae-myung, Han Ye-ri and Uhm Tae-goo.The show begins in 1989 in Saju, South Gyeongsang Province. The Saju Train Station has been attacked with sarin nerve gas with everyone inside dead. The Gyeongsang Provincial Police Agency arrest Jo Kyung-ho, a South Korean man who studied in Japan for a few years before he came back. He's sentenced to life in prison for the attack.In 1999, Detective Choi Hyung-in is coping with the loss of his wife, who was killed in the '89 terror attack. He works with Lee Si-jeong to solve a murder case with ties to Jo Jae-young, who has gone missing from Gyeongcheon Girls' Middle School. Meanwhile, Jo Jung-hyun, Kyung-ho, is trying to have a low profile after his arrest and conviction since she's stigmatized for having a terrorist as an immediate relative. Meanwhile, Hyung-in and Si-jeong have picked up the trail of a supposed cassette tape that has a strange recording that does seemingly nothing...As the investigation continues, Hyung-in and Kyung-ho realize that whatever's happening in Saju, it ties with a video tape made by Kyung-ho and her friends back in Gyeongcheon High School with an occult-like symbol that's tied to a presence of a cult known as Youngjingyo and drugs being smuggled into South Korea. | |

Police Are Useless | |
| Hometown (2021) / int_59907e4f | comment |
Police Are Useless: The GPPA is pressured to find out whoever kidnapped Jae-yong from Gyeongcheon Girls' Middle School and murdered several persons in Saju. They can't get good clues because the Youngjingyo are taking any evidence that can used to incriminate them. | |

Driving Question | |
| Hometown (2021) / int_8151ec48 | comment |
Driving Question: Several made in the show. What made Kyung-ho use sarin on Saju Train Station? Why did Jae-young leave school while classes are going on? What's the strange occult-like symbol popping around Saju? What are the tapes the middle school students found? And how are they tied back to 1989? It's suggested that using the tapes is one component of having someone brainwashed. | |
