Just finished watching this one. I gotta say it was a solid 8 in the first half of the drama because of the witty,…
-FL has several victims' blood on her hands. She could have saved the cafe waitress in the field by asking the whole bus for help. The culprit was among them, but he wouldn't have been able to kill the victim with a crowd around. She could have saved the assemblyman and her grandpa as well by telling the police she saw the culprit in exact same raincoat, with exact same knife about to backstab the assemblyman. But she dissmissed that he might have been the actual killer by listening to his sappy lie. Lolwut, woman? Not to mention that no matter what his intentions were, serial or not, he was about to stab a man! And last victim is SML. Because of her stupid irresistible desire to meet him no matter what time of day it is and that a serial killer is on the loose, she agreed to meet with him late at night far away from residential houses, and without telling ML. Then, even though she said she believed him, she of course ran away from him when he ran after her to show her the murder knife.
-FL also was made frustratingly very dumb near the end of the show in general. Walking at night alone, being uncooperative because her love interest may be the killer, slapping ML and blaming him (serious wtf moment) for so many victims, the list goes on...At least in the end she apologized to ML.
-ML should have arrested SML for the farmer's death right then and there after he saw blood on his hand and because SML's house was very close to where ML lost the killer. But instead ML let him go and let that rare, concrete evidence, with no psychic mumbo jumbo, go to waste. That was very dumb on ML's part.
-SML's behavior throughout the drama was very frustrating as well. One can say that it was his suspicious, antagonistic, secretive and uncooperative behavior that got him killed in the end. He may have been smart to figure out the killer first, but his aloofness and inability to trust people didn't help his case whatsoever. He basically had all the traits one would attribute to a serial killer and you can't blame policemen here for making him the prime suspect.
-The farmer with psychic powers was basically asking for it. Ffs, why'd you be grabbing a leg of a person you strongly suspect to be the killer in the middle of the night in a remote area?
Just finished watching this one. I gotta say it was a solid 8 in the first half of the drama because of the witty, on point humor. But then it turned into your typical murder crime drama, with dumb leads to boot, which became more apparent as episodes went on. So, of course, many people died before the culprit was caught and even that was through sheer luck and out of the grave help of a single smart side character. Some deaths could have even be prevented if characters weren't acting atrociously dumb, especially near the end of the drama. It was frustrating to watch how clumsily it was resolved. The culprit wasn't revealed too early as it often happens in such dramas, but showrunners did start giving heavy hints in late episodes and after most of the suspects were killed not many characters were left to suspect anyway. The motive was very meh, considering that the culprit character didn't give any serial killer vibes until he was caught and there was no sus behavior in his past.
I also didn't like that for a few episodes the drama veered into a side story that basically lead to nowhere. I'm talking about FL mother's and assemblyman's story - a sudden end, no justice for those who got killed and cheated of their money. And then this story was promptly swept under a rug. Left a feeling of it being a filler.
And lastly, I didn't like that showrunners decided to shoehorn sudden romance between ML and FL in like 1.5 episodes left to go. Was completely unnecessarily and at that point felt unbelievable. And I guess FL wasn't really into SML, even though she was running after him and making googly eyes at him like a stupid cow for most of the drama.
I've also made a list of very stupid things that went on at the end of the drama under spoilers below. Overall a 7.0.
#1 all Unnie squad scenes #2 when FL got stuck in a window frame like Winnie-the-Pooh and then walked through the city with a concrete frame around her waist that she squeezed out. #3 pantsu thief episode, because it's anime classic
I'm on episode 11 right now. And drama is still genuinely gripping. Does it really take a sharp dive, or people are exaggerating here? I don't really care about lack of romance here either, but I do care about coherent plot.
I really hope we get to see our favourite Unnie squad and our beloved French teacher last episode!!! They were…
That "Unnie" guy was such a green flag I thought he was a great match for FL's friend from the very beginning. Glad the drama went that way. Yea, he's not handsome, or whatever she wanted, but can't be picky in a small town.
Boring and I don't feel the chemistry here. Just lots of cheesy cliches, spotty acting, annoying love triangles and bland office routine filler.
SML was better as an antagonist in Crazy Love, that role fit him. Here he's, I dunno, robotic, kinda creepy and too old for FL? SFL is a total cliche bitch, seen it in every other drama. Office characters are mostly boring, but elder couple is more cute than the main couple for some reason. Also, office colleague character with weird big eyes and black hair can do better, seen her in Goblin and Touch Your Heart <-watch this one if you want a good office romance.
I love dramas with good humor and so far Behind Your Touch is spot on with its jokes. And I also love when dramas don't waste my time by inserting filler nobody cares about, this drama so far has not let me down. Even hopeless pining for SML has a purpose, I think, the guy's sus and will play some role later on, I bet. But I'm only on episode 6 so far. Let's see how it goes. I've read that FL starts acting like a total dumbass later on? I can say that ML is doing that from the beginning, that's why he's not a good cop and got transferred to the boonies. He can't solve anything without FL's help, all attempts to look cool and professional usually fail due to him being too dense for the intricate country world 😂.
Is it really that great to get 9.2? Or overrated as always? I've watched 2 episodes so far and I'm not seeing anything special or eye catching like it was with Alchemy of Souls, for example. I'm not into superheroes plots, enlighten me those who have completed it - it's not some cliche superhero with double life origin story, right?
This drama kinda got boring and stale with all the love triangles and going back and forth whether spells work or not. It was interesting in the beginning though, even with unlikable protagonists. SML is kinda creepy and jaded and ML, let's face it, is a cold hearted jerk. Not sure what FL finds in either of them, but I guess since she feels so lonely she's willing to jump on any guy who says he likes her, even with mixed messages and/or under a spell. I agree with other commenters saying that there's not enough meat on this drama's bones and love triangles are a filler to waste our time for 16 episodes.
Second season is not much better than the first. Yea, there’s much more action here, but the plot is all over the place; protagonists most of the time are stubborn, dumb af and naively trusting, barely able to react to what’s being thrown at them; there are lots of folklore characters and monsters packed here to waste the main hero’s time since he's stuck in the past for a while and even zombies are thrown into the mix for yet another dumb and cheesy “save some character” subplot to prolong screen time even more.
Most of the time in this season the main hero spends on babysitting and/or saving his whiny brother, his friend from the present who jumped after him, his retconned backstabbing mountain god peers, tons of side characters, other Korean folklore creatures and seems like the whole of Joseon from occupying Japanese forces, many of which are Japanese yokai in disguise. No pressure, right? But the whole time watching this I just got annoyed at him for his guilty conscience and for wasting time on something that cannot be changed and what will only leave more painful memories and make it harder for him to leave. His brother would have survived somehow for the future no matter whether he saved or left him.
In the end dumbassery and scatterbrained plot made this season almost as boring for me to watch as the first. It mostly felt like a fanservice for bromance between two brothers, which the audience barely got at the finale of season 1. Also, the brother now has 2 plotholes: 1) him still acting in the future like a whiny bitch who didn't experience anything from season 2 with his brother; 2) his mermaid girlfriend from the past. And there's as of yet unexplained one: why Ginko looked just like Russian female fox character (same actress) from season 1. And finally, they've introduced a new big bad right at the end of the season 2 and nothing came out of it, gotta wait for season 3 maybe. 6.5 max from me, I’m not ML’s stan so I won’t give freebies here, overrated.

It's even in the recommendations.
There's also plethora of other dramas with funny, bickering main leads and some mystery (but no fantastical powers), for example:

The last bastion of original, creative media. And Disney wants to put they grubby, ruinous hands on it too.
