Cult Hunter - Episode Guide

Tak Myung Hwan spent his life investigating and exposing dangerous pseudo-religious groups, until he was brutally murdered by an unidentified assailant. Because Tak was targeted by countless cults and had survived numerous past attacks, the investigation immediately hit a dead end. But when a suspect was finally caught, he shockingly claimed he had acted entirely on impulse, alone.

Every move Lim Hong Cheon made was tracked, and his accomplices were exposed. Yet, even as the mountain of evidence and testimony grew, the lead prosecutor was sidelined. And the prime suspect, the one with the most damning connections, was cleared of all charges. What kind of power were they truly up against?

Lim Hong Cheon, a man whose existence was once dismissed as a mere rumor, vanished after his release from prison. His trail had gone cold, long obscured by the shock following the death of Pastor Park Yun Sik. However, 32 years later, following a cross-border pursuit that spanned the U.S., a crucial lead, one that remained elusive for decades, has finally been uncovered. Through an extraordinary method, he has been brought to light. Does a will to reveal the truth still remain within him?

Followers viewed Pastor Park not just as a religious leader, but as the Creator himself. This divine status funded an opulent lifestyle of mansions and luxury cars, sustained by followers lining up with envelopes of cash. Yet behind this façade lay a brutal reality of physical assault and sexual exploitation. Uncovering this dark truth made Tak Myung Hwan the cult's prime target.

A subterranean power struggle for the church unfolds following the founder's death. When leaked affidavits and secret financial records hint at systemic hush-money payoffs to the convicted killer, the three sons of the legendary cult hunter step forward to continue their late father's legacy: uncovering the truth behind the historic cover-up.
