I did not hear much about Beyond Evil from the news and media in my country but my friend spoke so highly of it so I watched it on Netflix recently. It was so good that I just binge-watched it in 2 days! The story revolves around a small neighborhood called Manyang and the people who live there. It started off with a flashback to 20 years ago where Lee Dong Shik was accused of murdering the victims in a serial killing case. 20 years later, as an up-and-coming inspector Han Ju Won arrived at Manyang to re-open the investigation, another victim emerged, drawing resemblance with the serial killing case 20 years ago. The drama starts off with a slow pace with a major plot twist kicking in just at the end of the second episode. Thereafter there are decent twists and turns throughout, with Episode 8 being the end of the first major plot. While I wondered how the drama will develop after episode 8, as I went on I realised episode 8 was an important turning point that brings out the climax, which I am not going to spoil here. I can't explain more about why a psychological thriller drama can be a "therapeutic" one without spoiling so I will let you find out by watching it :)
