    In 1795, the nineteenth year of King Jeongjo’s reign, a large amount of fake silver is slipped into circulation creating a substantial threat to the economy. Detective KIM Min is assigned the task to investigate the crime ring behind the scheme. He goes undercover in a rural village with his best friend and sidekick, Seok-pil. In the village, the pair meets a girl called Da-hae who asks them to help her find her missing sister. Soon, Da-hae goes missing too, and discolored, bluish corpses of village girls begin to wash up on the shore. KIM Myung-min and OH Dal-su team up again for KIM Sok-yun’s sequel to his 2011 hit Detective K: Secret of the Virtuous Widow. Given the original’s success during the Lunar New Year holiday, which the sequel is also scheduled for, and the current popularity of period films, Detective K: Secret of the Lost Island seems well positioned to draw solid crowds over the holiday.
