So basically, detective was covering for the male therapist who is the actual killer ig. At this point i think…
I'm with you. And one more thing: it's obvious that the puzzles was drawn by dr. Hwang, since he was the only character in the drama that paint as a hobby; just like what was shown in his room and his presentation in Jeju.
The old "newbie" was only assumed to still be fainted.What if he faked it so he can set up the crime scene?1.…
From ep 9, it's clear that Jeongho knew the killer and trying to "protect" him from killing again, and somehow he feels it's part of his fault that all of this started.
By the look of it, Jeongho was more afraid that Choi San knows more than he should, especially on the handkerchief scenes, because again, he was trying to protect the real killer.
The credit at the end sound like a tribute to Kim Hyeja herself. It's sad to remember that she's one of the senior actresses (83 years old at that) who is still active in the industry, yet we never know how much time she has left.
As she said herself, she'll be remembered as someone who gave it her all and was genuine as an actress.
I am also confused as to how in the sci fi twist the husband was a troubled man who was drifting between being…
Kim Hyeja has alzheimer so that's why all her memories were distorted. She confused between the reality and what her brain wanted her to see. And us, the viewers, saw the story from Kim Hyeja's point of view.
At the end of ep 10, you'll see there's a flashback where it changed between b&w and full-colored scenes. Afaik, the b&w represent Hyeja's delusions, while the colored ones represent Hyeja's reality.
I actually love the twist and I think it's pretty clever for the writer to write such heavy topics like alzheimer and past traumas (the torture of journalists at that time) disguised as lighthearted time-travel drama.
I rlly like sul kyunggus other works but this drama and memoir of a murderer is just proof he needs to do more…
Maybe you'd like Whirlwind, his character was so gray in that (more calculative and less psychopathic but still kinda crazy, lol). Also if I'm not mistaken, that was his first drama ever after a long time playing in films.
I think the director & writers' approach for this drama is similar to The Light in Your Eyes (their previous work);1.…
Haha yeah Behind Your Touch was literally so absurd that I have no choice but to laugh by its absurdities 😂 Even the thriller & mystery aspects weren't that thrilling because the comedy was way more dominant.
If you prefer this drama, maybe you'd like The Light in Your Eyes (a.k.a Dazzling) by the same director & writers if you haven't watched it. The storytelling is more structured, as tragic as this one (I wanna say TLIYE is more tragic but I'm not really sure since this drama haven't ended), also Kim Hyeja won Daesang at Baeksang Awards because of that drama (which is rare for an actor/actress to win Daesang).
When it was airing, there were many theories (as it happens again for this drama) because we didn't know where it was going, lol. It was fun. One of my all-time favorite dramas.
I think the director & writers' approach for this drama is similar to The Light in Your Eyes (their previous work);
1. How it starts with something nonsense (time travel for TLIYE and the afterlife stuff for this drama), once we (and the main characters) start enjoying the concept, then in the final episodes twists appear that make the mood of the story change 180°;
2. The writers wrote a common thread by bringing heavy topics such as past trauma (silencing and torture of journalists for TLIYE and illegal child trafficking for this drama) that can unbearably make one's memory distorted after many years (alzheimer's for TLIYE and selective dementia for this drama I guess?);
3. And all those heavy topics that are hidden in a fun and comedic fantasy way in the first 10 episodes then revealed in the last 2 episodes make the audience feel cheated by the synopsis;
4. Not to mention both family members of Kim Hyeja's characters (the son for TLIYE and the husband for this drama) are disabled by accident, worsening the traumatic event.
Good job I guess? But as someone who watched their previous work (TLIYE) and loved it so much, this formula is not that surprising. And unfortunately, the ratings and euphoria were not as big as the previous work.
Sul Kyung-gu always picks great projects—his choices show why he's a top actor.
I’d love to see more backstory about the two main characters. It’s rare to find a story about a student-teacher relationship—especially one with mentorship, medical themes, and a vigilante twist.
I enjoy stories where I can’t predict the ending. I just hope they don’t end up destroying each other but instead find closure and understanding.
In the end, this is just fiction. It’s important to separate it from real life—enjoying a story doesn’t mean agreeing with everything in it.
I don't believe for one second that the Chairwoman would allow anyone to rank above her daughter simply because…
But that may happen though, since Agent An helped the Chairwoman looking for the gold she has been looking for all her life. At least, she can do that much. About how she looked pissed, Idk, she is good at acting, especially in front of her daughter.
Or, maybe, the school only fabricated the VIP students' math score through Lee Junho, but since Yujeong is way too smart, even fabricating the math score wasn't enough to put Yena as the first place.
All the foreshadowing always pointed towards him.

Japan surely is the best at making slice of life genre; either film, dorama, anime/manga, and even literature.
