Queen Mantis - Season 1 (2025)

What terrifies Detective Cha Su Yeol more than the criminal he must catch is the mother he must join forces with. Twenty years after the arrest of "The Mantis," a ruthless serial killer, a copycat crime emerges, mimicking her methods. To track down the culprit who seems to dig into his own past, Su Yeol reluctantly partners with his mother Jung I Sin, who he has despised all his life. She is a paradox of cruelty and twisted love who slaughtered five victims without a shred of remorse. Yet Su Yeol comes to realize that she holds the key to the case. As the pursuit unfolds, another side of Jung I Sin is revealed, forcing him to confront a terrifying question, 'Am I just another monster that is no different from my mother?'
