i think there are a couple morals of the story... at least for me
- don't trust too easily not everything or everyone is what they seem to be
- they are trying to say that some psychopath are born to be this way rather than the environment they live in being the contributor and i kinda agree haha many murderers are affected by childhood but also many of them have been born to loving families and have successful lives they hide behind and that why this drama nails the psychopaths' traits
- it also wants to say that these murderer would've had a different life if they weren't born like that
- can't think of more.

yes! exactly

i think that's way beyond their ability now.. if you watch the predator episodes, you'll understand why they can't change the killer anymore
everything is confirmed there chillingly

yeah me too, the worst one and that makes him the best psychopath character ever, no one could out do or beat him for me ... this and the puzzle like nature of the drama, makes it the best thriller crime drama i've seen .. it was mesmerizing to watch
i have to say there are definitely a couple famous thriller shows i haven't seen yet but even so i don't think they'll capture my attention and fascinate me as much as this one did.. legit obsessed with this one hahah

i also had the same thought as you when i first watched it and but then i actually thought of all the reasons why he couldn't say it and it made sense to me.
i think it went better this way, i personally think even if he had yelled "ba reum", it wouldn't have done the enough effect for them to catch him or even do anything.. he's way too good of a liar and they believe him and adore him and also have no concrete evidence that he did it to even get a warrant to search his house ... they wouldn't even .. they trust him so much ... sadly
one more reason the priest didn't say anything is also because he was killed by someone close to him and he loved, maybe he wanted to protect him too, maybe he wanted to give him a chance to repent.. many priests and people of religion think this way although i don't understand them but i do understand that they are different than me and i guess more spiritual

and when i think of all these reasons.. what you call a plot hole to me just seems so insignificant and not even a problem
and the scene was pretty meaningful the way ko mo won acted was selfless and probably way too selfless, wouldn't have been better or touching any other way

and it's a drama, the writer and director, actors and editors are doing their best to entertain us and i think they are doing such an amazing job compared to other dramas i've seen where each episode is filled with loopholes like actuall loopholes so i appreciate their work and try to understand, instead of pointing out the smallest slightest error i see

and frankly many people put in his situation would hesitate, some can't think straight, some get too scared, some believe that if they sacrifice themselves the others would be saved and ko mo won's situation was the toughest i've seen , i wouldn't even know what i'd do haha and i have all this time to think and i still would hesitate as to what i should do .. i've seen it happen in a lot of movies ..

i know right, i know there's a lot more to answer but i'm still so curious and eager to know how they'll handle things.. and there are plenty of things to be handled
however i have to admit i legit thought these two would've been in the drama and are a must watch right after episode 15.. i'm glad i didn't bail on them .. i normally bail on specials

the scene were the dad is dead and him taking the knife to go upstairs, this is the one i was talking about, i mean i know it could be that he didn't do it but it makes sense that he did, he hated the family, he hated the kids almost killed one of them if not for the mom and he hated the father tremendously.
but now i went back to rewatch it and i think u guys are, he said it was difficult and maybe that's why he did a lot of things to kill him ,, i wonder what's the truth

listen honey did you see how fast JBR slit his throat ? ... "the killer is jung ba reum " is too long of a sentence for him to utter, upon hearing the word " jung "or " the killer ".. the smart fast thinking JBR would've slit his throat that fast before he could say anything more ... on top of that his personality as a nice forgiving person devoted to god ... and the 60 second bomb around that little kiddd... and he knew those were his last moment alive so he wanted to let his brother know his true feelings so his brother stops blaming himself for the injury and his death because he knew that moo chi will keep blaming himself and he actually thought the boy might have a chance to live ... do you get it now >> i also answered you constructively, the way you like :P lol

and hope karma hits him with more than just feeling miserable

me too, i legit no longer know what will happen next

nah he killed the family.. there are scenes proving he did, what he said about his first murder being too inexperienced in the special was probably about the family because he was almost suspected, then they showed the boxer's murder and you could tell how experienced he was in that murder, literally breaking all his bone, causing fractures in the most painful places, stabbing him in many places but making sure not to stab in a place that kills him because he wants him to burn alive, and leaving no evidence .. what the heck, we all know only experienced murderers manage to do that..

IKR, but i also think it will be put out there maybe in the next coming episodes

for me it was such a sad watch, i was devastated ... but it's super amazing regardless

The amount of manipulations is sickening, what a busy dude , must've been tiring .......
i really hate him, the acting is so brilliant
for those wondering if it's worth the watch , it totally is and it also shows you everything you're wondering about and brilliant acting, extra dose of smart crazy psychopath playing everyone .. and honestly just feels like an important part of the drama

Can’t believe the first time I got introduced to him was mouse ....

Can’t believe the first time I got introduced to him was mouse ....

Rest In Peace

thanks :)

there's no way he isn't, it would render the drama's purpose irrelevant
and make your comment tas a spoiler

regarding bareum : ba reum is the head hunter's son because he must be, there's no way han seo jun would operate a surgery to save someone who isn't his without a reward, he must have known all along that the killer of chii kook is JBR he must have figured that it's all an act and he also told JBR not to let song yo han take over his brain .. meaning that he knew the truth of him being a murderer and probably knew how song yo han wasn't his from the very first time they met in prison , remember when he summoned him in the second episode ?
i can't even be convinced that not once did he get mad over his son's death .. unless yo han wasn't really his real son
the little boy's name is jae hoon .. han jae hoon i'm guessing ..that's JBR's real name
ba reum didn't approach bong yi on purpose .. she was just one of the people living in the neighbor hood he was in and the grandma always tried to get them close... that's how, as for why'd he said he'd marry her is just because he likes lying and having fun .. he even gave her a cat teeth necklace smh ... i don't think he got her pregnant as there was no scene implying that he did or that reach that level of intimacy relationship

REGARDING THE MNT SMELL .. yo han put the mint smelling deodorant or something and would always follow ba reum and i guess ba reum always said he could smells mint in the crime because he was actually did smell yo han but could never know it was his smell and this why he tried to use the smell to frame him for the murders, in the face off they had episode 15 ba reum told yo ha " now i know where the mint smell was coming from, i guess it was you " and i willalso explains how yo han had the pictures : in episode 15 he seemed to know about the underground basement where han kook was .. so probably got them from there
HOWEVER there was a crime committed by the lawyer where ba reum could also smell mint the problem is if yo han is dead then where was the mint smell coming from ( hallucinations due to the brains surgery side effects are valid no ? unless a plot twist is coming our way? ...

the aunt acting like she's definitely hiding something regarding his childhood or that is probably because she was the one organizing the stuff when they moved and she probably the item leading to ba reum being the murderer and all ..

someone is definitely following daniel lee .. he is in hiding for a certain reason .. maybe his life is actually in danger

the cat teeth pendant looked like that because psychos obviously like doing such acts and to make it look like it isn't something weird or scary of course they would arrange it in a way that looks nice in the eyes, like a flower ... the only reason the two pendants looked the same .. it's not related in any other way

hong joo probably still blames herself and considers herself to be an accomplice in han seo jun murders which is why she hides her identity, and if her identity is ever known by the police since she's a victim and survivor therefore she becomes a witness whose statement is important and i don't think she will want to feel the burden of all victims families coming together to ask her if she knew where the other victims are buried and exactly why nobody still knows that han seo jun killed people to do brain transplants and that he actually had a lab ,
she sent the tape in order to save ba reum's life since she felt guilty thinking yo han was the real cross killer / seven deadly sins sinner

sung ji eun could have gone late at night to where these murders where happening to actually die because it didn't seems that she wants to live and give birth to that baby ... i'm still not sure whether the man who saved her was the boxer or not .... and it could be that he saved her to get avenge his sister ( since the head hunter killed his sister ) and that could be why ba reum committed the revenge crime against him since ba reum was mad at god for being born the way he is and also mad at the boxer because he saved his ass(that is if he knew that his mom was saved from the murderer by the boxer .). maybe the old him knew all about his younger life but now after the surgery he just doesn't remember who he was and can't seem to control his facial expressions as he normally could before ...

imagine a young killer wanting to become normal and then imagine getting the chance to believe you are normal ( after the surgery ) he wanted to believe he wasn't the killer ... after he woke up and forgot about everything, everyone was applauding him telling him how much of a good person he was, he couldn't distinguish lies from truth ... he wanted to believe it was yo han maybe that's why he had those hallucinations but it was indeed his true self coming to the surface rather than yo han's
