What makes Beyond Evil worth watching
Won every Baeksang it could in 2021.
Beyond Evil represents a strong example of south korea crime from the 2021 production cycle. Korean studios have spent the past decade refining the kind of long-form storytelling on display here — careful character work, restrained pacing in the early episodes, and a willingness to let emotional beats land without overstatement. The blend of Crime and Mystery elements gives the show its tonal signature, sitting somewhere between mainstream comfort viewing and prestige drama.
The cast is led by Shin Ha-kyun, Yeo Jin-goo, Choi Dae-hoon. It originally aired on JTBC, and has since travelled internationally through the streaming partnerships listed above.
