This is one of those series where every word & every action carries weight
Beyond Evil is a 2021 psychological thriller drama starring Shin Ha Kyun and Yeo Jin Goo as the leads. In summary, the story revolves around two fearless detectives in the police force working together (somewhat) to track down and identify a serial killer from 20 years ago. However, as they dig further, new evidence starts to emerge, suggesting that there might be more that one killer and that, the killer is amongst them. Hence, no one is to be trusted, not even themselves.
This show started off as rather slow and slightly boring (for me) only to become my absolute favourite after EP 5. I guess what truly made this show stand out when compared to other thriller and psychological dramas out there is that it is quite unique in the sense, it is neither cliché nor lacking in originality. Instead, it is quite captivating and addictive to the point where it makes viewers curious, as to what would happen next or who the ‘actual killer’ is. Throughout the series, I found myself quite immersed into finding the actual killer by looking for hidden clues and focusing on facial expressions and just when I was absolutely certain about the killer, the show introduced new suspects leading us in a completely different direction. So, I guess, ‘Beyond Evil’ really does surprise its viewers with unexpected twists and turns without recycling certain plot devices.
Aside from the storyline, another aspect this show does extremely well in is – Casting. Whoever decided on the cast deserves a bonus. Both Yeo Jin Goo and Shin Ha Kyun are brilliant actors who knew what they were doing; hence, there was not a single clunker throughout the drama. Lastly, the soundtrack for this series including the background music is one of the best I’ve heard in a long time. If the sound makers ever decide to release a CD featuring all the song, I’ll definitely buy it.
And finally, to those wondering whether to check this show out or not, do check it out. I’m absolutely certain you’ll love it and make sure, you stick around till EP 5 (if you find the start a little dry, like me).
