Beyond Evil (괴물, Goemul, literally "Monster") is a 2021 South Korean thriller series starring Shin Ha-kyung and Yeo Jin-goo.Twenty years ago, in the year 2000, Lee Dong-sik's sister Yu-yeon disappeared, as did Bang Ju-seon, another young woman who was an acquaintance of Dong-sik. Dong-sik is suspected of both crimes and briefly arrested, but when no evidence turns up (in fact, neither body is found), he is released.Cut forward 20 years. Dong-sik is still in his hometown of Munju, working as a police detective. He is still haunted by his sister's disappearance. Enter Han Ju-won, a bright young cop some two decades younger than Dong-sik. Ju-won is the son of Han Gi-hwan, a senior police officer who may soon become chief of all police in Korea, but Ju-won wants to prove himself as his own man. He believes that a Serial Killer has been operating in Munju, that Yu-yeon was one of the victims, and that Dong-sik might actually be the killer. | |

Foolish Sibling, Responsible Sibling: The dynamic shown in the flashback to 2000 between Dong-sik and his sister Yu-yeon. Yu-yeon is a devout Catholic, hard worker, makes good grades, plays the piano at her grandfather's memorial service. Dong-sik is a goof-off who plays guitar and does not even bother to go to the memorial service. | |

How We Got Here: The first episode opens with the cops finding a body in the marsh. This is followed by a flashback to 20 years ago filling in the backstory of the characters, then a jump to the present day that shows Dong-sik as a policeman, then a scene showing the cops trying to retrieve an old man with dementia who wandered off...which is when they went into the marsh and found a body. | |

Afterwards Dong-sik taunts Jin-muk with a DNA report that proves that in fact, Jin-muk wasn't Min-jung's father. | |

Dirty Cop: Gi-hwan, Ju-won's father, is willing to close a murder case quickly, which would ensure the victim is never identified and the murderer never caught, to prevent the possibility of Ju-won becoming a suspect. He also killed Yu-yeon by driving recklessly and has kept quiet about it for years. Sang-yeob suggests planting evidence, to Dong-sik's disgust. | |

Dong-sik is particularly upset, since he was on the scene very soon after the murder, and he realizes that Min-jeong was probably drawing her last breaths underground while he was frantically searching the courtyard no more than a foot above her. | |
