Following this, Go Namu, CEO of Fact Story and original author of the drama 'Those Who Read the Minds of Evil,' explained techniques from police-related research for creative works to dramatization under the theme 'How Facts Become Drama,' and guided crime analysis through a discussion with Go Jun-chae, a police inspector at the Institute of Security Policy and the first crime psychology analyst at the National Police Agency.
