“How dare we sit quietly and watch the world pass us by”

Han Juwon & Lee Dongsik in every episode

[nireey]

There is something so incredibly charming and amusing about horni Juwon being plagued by annoying wet dreams every night about that backwoods-ajusshi after his first time in Manyang. Rewatching with that thought in mind makes the show ten times funnier.

I love a good ship that has tried to kill each other at least once or have at least thought about it .

I think Beyond Evil is the perfect example why subtextual homosexual relationships are still so relevant and important today. By not making it explicit, it pays homage to a relationship dynamic that I think is very unique to queer media. It’s when creators circumvent censorship by elevating the intimacy between two characters a step above love and romance straight to devotion and madness. It really creates a sense of the cosmic nature of two people meeting who are about to change the entire trajectory of each other’s life without any explicit use of supernatural/sci fi elements. A soulmate AU that is not a soulmate AU. Whether it’s in comfort, shame or reverence it’s Han Juwon’s destiny to fall to his knees for Lee Dongsik, that is quite literally one of the ways he fulfills his characters arcs. sucking dick feels a little small change to me in comparison

the best kdrama i watched this year

(why is it square? I don't know, I cut off half of the picture just because)

Am I confident enough to write this fic? Hell nah.

Am I already making up OCs as his clients? You bet.

So I'm very much taken with the headcanon that post-canon Dongsik becomes a social worker.

And one of the tasks of a social worker is to help their clients navigate legal/bureaucratic/administrative stuff sooo...

In no time at all Dongsik becomes the bane of insurance companies, scummy relatives, and, well, I'd mention the police too but they already knew what to expect of him. :)

He's very good at memorising legislation, sniffing out loopholes and he WILL dig his heels in and assert the rights of his clients no matter what.

Korean cinema really had a whole ass era where a pretty young thing with kylie jenner lips would meet a hot older mildly to fully corrupt man who would end up manhandling the fuck outta that twink and I really think we should return to that era

BEYOND EVIL | EP8

[renshengs]

my ass will see a cunning older man with the kind of heartrending trauma that could burn down cities and a younger man who holds a devotion toward him that could tear apart whole landscapes and it's instantly over for me

[dangermousie]

I just realized that both Beyond Evil and The Devil Judge came out in 2021.

Kdramas really did say: you survived a pandemic, you deserve not one but two ‘barely in the closet by one toe’ dramas about righteous young idealists with daddy issues who come to take on morally ambiguous and charismatically unhinged daddies with horrific pasts and end up taking them on indeed. And on and on.

You know that whole “be gay do crime” thing? The dramas turned it into “be gay, do each other. And some crime on the side.”

I love when mentally unstable men become even more mentally unstable because of each other

If the ship doesn’t have high obsession & ‘ high codependency.. do I even want it?

[vampirehollie]

I'll set up a trap. I'll be the bait. I'll be a monster, take Han Ki-hwan with me, and dive into hell...That's my way of atoning. That's how he wants to atone for what happened...I can't let that fool go down alone.
