Episode 9: everyone thinks Director Seo is infatuated with Dong-sik
Video description: one of Dong-sik's coworkers tells him that he needs to be appreciated by his superiors, right before Dong-sik gets a called from Director Seo, who wants to get dinner with him at his father's restaurant. Everyone watches as he leaves to take the call. In the next scene, Dong-sik's father boasts about his meat, before the other members of the family come to compliment Director Seo, before Dong-sik insists that they leave.
dong-sik and in-woo being touchy-feely @ each other
Rewatching Psychopath Diary and Strangers from Hell really makes me wonder if someone was working on both sets at the same time because the amount of things in common...
A. GENERAL STUFF
1- both came out in 2019
2- contain a song by The Rose (or its lead singer, Kim Woo-sung)
3- similar themes (murderers) (although that's about 99% of k-dramas)
B. YOON JONGWOO AND YOOK DONGSIK
1- both writers
2- work an office job
3- annoying coworker/sort of friend called Jae-ho
4- their superior hate them
5- fantasize about murder (like, a lot)
6- (threaten to) beat up one of their colleagues with weird objects
7- one parent that works in the food industry, the other that is nowhere to be seen
8- speak to their evil reflection in the mirror
9- no one takes them seriously
10- keep being dragged into work dinners
11- interest in 'dark' media (crime/horror)
12- one of their neighbour decided to befriend them even after they acted very weirdly
C. SEO MOONJO AND SEO INWOO
1- look very polite and nice to most people
2- same family name!
3- odd relationship to their parental figure (they want to kill them)
4- like to collect things from their victims!
5- really really want to convince a random guy to commit murder
6- tactics to convince someone to commit murder includes saying vague stuff like 'we're so alike'
7- please refer to this post for more details
D- SO JUNGHWA AND SHIM BOKYUNG
1- cops. That one's pretty simple
2- dad was also a cop (and a famous one)
3- only cop to do any work whatsoever in the whole city
4- on more or less good terms with both the actual serial killer (moonjo/inwoo) and the wannabe serial killer (jongwoo/dongsik)
5- gets kidnapped by one of the killers at some point
6- work based on their instincts
Thank you to @softneomiro for pointing out some resemblances I hadn't seen before!
Why the hell did Seo In-woo want to eat at Dong-sik's family's restaurant
if anyone is like me and loves Hannibal and is looking for kdramas with the same type of vibe, I’d like to suggest Strangers from Hell and The Devil Judge. Or there’s also Psychopath Diary if you want something more comedic.
"Shall I book it?"
"Already did."
So I’m watching psychopath diary and the scene were Dong-sik’s father hits him with a frying pan to get his memories back gave me this werid feeling of deja vu to that time when my friend him me with her water bottle when I had a concussion. It did not work.Â
No because if you go onto etsy or something and you search ‘bi candles’ the results look exactly like the candles Inwoo has in his study in episode 15.Â
For some reason the scene in psychopath diary were dong-sik stabbed himself reminds me of that scene in midnight were kyung-mi stabbed herself.Â
