[Orion's Daily Ramblings] Kim Ok-vin Experiences Death in "Children of a Lesser God" Teaser

We finally get a first proper look at the heroine of "Children of a Lesser God", Kim Dan, through a new teaser and stills. After a long wait for the cryptic "sees what should not be seen" to become clearer, the video reveals what Dan's actual superpower is. My own question would be, does it come with a very creepy notification system?

"When the bell rings, the truth will be revealed". This line and the sound of said bell have been with us since the very first teaser, but their function might have just been revealed. Kim Dan (Kim Ok-vin) seems to have her visions of the victims' fate while a bell is ringing, and I can't figure out if this is simply the concept of the video or an actual sound that notifies her of or guides her to what needs experiencing.

Which brings us to the other interesting bit of her actually seeing herself as the victim or possibly even feeling the entire sequence from a first person perspective. As if things weren't bad enough for our heroine, she further reveals that this is the sixty-ninth death she has experienced. That is a whole lot and given that this has probably been with her since a very young age, it's no surprise that she keeps count.

I'm also interested in how this gift/curse of hers will fit in with a detective who loves his own brain so badly. I imagine that someone who loves facts and evidence will find supernatural abilities a tough pill to swallow. I expect clashing followed by scientific fascination and probably a hefty dose of probing for poor Dan. No, not the fun kind. This is still an OCN crime show.
