Each episode shocks viewers with unexpected turns of the story, although the story thoroughly inspects the characters’ relationship.
The twists and turns of the plot cannot go unmentioned when speaking of Beyond Evil. These realistic backgrounds are what make this story lifelike. The current law, which Lee Dong Sik knows better than anyone else, clearly limits investigating a missing and murder case. Even the media reports on the victims are biased, as if they were all in it together. Their desires for real estate are too big to console someone and look after their pains. They also still share groundless gossips about Jae Yi’s missing mother. Manyang still treats Dong Sik as a criminal and considers him an obstacle to its development projects. The question of who the evil is shining a light on a society that gives birth to an evil causes harm to others. It escapes the conventional pattern of a Korean thriller that often focuses on characters’ psychological change, prioritizing explicit scenes and a plot structure that conflicts against the culprit. They are why Beyond Evil is more emotionally immersive than other typical crime thrillers. Or, it could be as painful and outrageous as Yoo Jae Yi, who understands Dong Sik’s insane behaviors, and Lee Dong Sik, who had no choice but to break the law and his principles. And it could be as helpless and as selfish as the faith that Park Jeong Je and Oh Ji have in Dong Sik.

It could be as disturbing as Kang Jin Mook, who turned out to be the serial killer. It looks into the dark, complex, and hidden feelings of those related to the brutal incident. Nonetheless, this show is not simply about two police investigators getting suspicious and wary of each other as they catch the serial killer. The tense conflict makes viewers pay close attention to the two’s relationship and find clues with their sharp senses. However, the more he acts out, the more Han Joo Won is sure of his doubts. Being called an oddball, Lee Dong Sik is uncontrollable as he becomes eccentric when someone persistently interrogates him. The fierce psychological battle between the two is what drives the show’s plot. He openly shows distrust and clashes with Dong Sik, trying to find the connection to the incident. He disorients the perspective of an outsider, as he suspected Lee Dong Sik right from the beginning when he transferred to the Manyang police station. Lieutenant Han Joo Won intensifies the situation. Even if Lee Dong Sik wasn’t the culprit, it is hard to dispel the suspicions in one way or another. Because he was a suspect, we cannot guarantee that Lee Dong Sik, the police, is not the criminal. With another incident that agitated Manyang, Lee Dong Sik is suspiciously holding onto a secret.
She disappears with only ten fingers left behind, just like when Dong Sik’s sister Lee Yoo Yeon went missing. She is Kang Jin Mook’s daughter, who owns Manyang supermarket, whom Lee Dong Sik adored like his niece. Soon after the decomposed body resembling the victim from 20 years ago appear, Kang Min Jeong goes missing. The show confuses viewers by creating a suspicious character who must have gone through a long time of pain and solitude.
