«Nightmare» is presented as a sci-fi action drama set in a world where artificial intelligence can penetrate human dreams.
In this universe, criminals are no longer sent to prison. Instead, they are condemned to undergo a artificial nightmare, designed to prevent them from sleeping even a single night. The series will explore the abuses of a technology capable of manipulating the human subconscious, and the far-reaching crimes that ensue.
Kim Nam-gil plays Kim Tae-yi, a detective marked by a long undercover mission. When he returns, he's not quite the same: his personality, his way of speaking and even his lifestyle have changed. Yet one thing remains intact: his determination to track down evil. With sharpened instincts and a darker temperament, he joins forces with vigilantes who can intervene directly in dreams to track down criminals.
For her part, Lee Yoo-mi plays Jang Gyu-eun, a discreet and reserved policewoman in everyday life, dedicated to helping victims. But in her dreams, she reveals a completely different side.
She becomes a «creator of nightmares», able to enter the minds of criminals who have escaped justice and inflict extreme suffering on them.
