Hello Monster Episode 11

The killer's past

Oh Well, they are basically a couple now. The dumb girl get the clever boy.
Leaving aside this pretty awful romantic story between these two characters, let’s talk about the real thrilling part of this episode : Lee Jun Yeong’s past.
Sometimes villains aren't meant to become bad. If you hit a dog everyday the dog might become afraid of you. But he could bite you back too. That’s exactly what happened with Lee Jun Yeong.
His family treated him as if he was a monster. Even in my country if you are the son born from a rape people will look at you badly.
He was a boy born from a rape, his family hide him and treated him badly. So he had two choose between two options : forgive his family’s behaving or punish them.
He choose to kill them all. Did he tried to look more human in front of Lee Hyeon? I guess so.
And what about Min? He’s desperately trying to get his brother attention. Is he punishing him too?
“look at me. I became a monster because you didn’t try to save me.”
That’s what exactly what he’s thinking, poor boy.

I always kiss after near death experiences!

I get why Ji an is into Lee Hyeon but I don't get why he reciprocates...well not really but he doesn't push her back. When she is pouring her heart out he just moves closer and you can see his robotic response...so dead pan.
Also all my suspicions about everyone have been confirmed already...did I call it or what!
This episode they humanized Joon Ho I don't get why these shows do that. Why not let evil men be evil men? Why can't they just be bad for the simple reason that they are bad, they are just born that way and not out of circumstances and situations?
I am still enjoying how Lee Hyeon, Min and Joon Ho are toying with each other, sussing and bating each other. It feels like an elaborate game of chess. One of the best aspects of the show.
Never in all of the Kdramas I have watched has a protagonist's arrogance killed someone, but this show is the first. Had Lee Hyeon opened the boxes that Min had sent him, could some (fictional) lives be saved? I wonder?
What I would also like to know is what favor Lee Hyeon had done for the art dealer for him to owe him so much. The guy is literally under Lee Hyeon's thumb.
Also it is way too subtle but is the team leader developing a crush on Ja An?
