Duuude I like, really, really want Sangwoo to get his ass caught. Ahh, that'd be a great ending. I mean, imagine the look on their faces when they're busted? This isn't some type of romance, no, it's sadistic, fucked, and horrible Not goddamn "cute" or "relatable"; it needs a great well-deserved ending to prove to him that he's not 'God'. And the cop, who of which I favor a lot, would be a great plausible way to end this story. But, if the cop were to be tortured and used by Sangwoo, I wouldn't mind it either. The possibilities are endless and I'm open to it all.
While I will not criticize your dislike for the cop (I can understand why some people may dislike him, even if I and others do like him), I do have to say that there is plenty of reason for him to suspect Sangwoo. After all, he saw that Bum go into Sangwoo's house, and then saw video of Sangwoo beating Bum up. And the hair in his shoe matched Bum's hair color, while Bum was not to be found in the house (because the cop didn't know he was hiding under the sink), and Sangwoo has now been connected to the missing girl. Cops in real life have gone on less to track down killers (and caught them). So he has more than sufficient reason to suspect and go after Sangwoo. Honestly, I am loving this story. I love detective stories & mysteries, horror and yaoi and this combines all three into one glorious story. I am enjoying how this is playing out and whatever the final conclusion is (be it good or bad), I am sure it will be worth it. Cause the ride so far has been awesome.
All the evidences he’s found so far were by luck. The hair happens to be from Sangwoo’s house and belong to Bum. The driver who was speeding happens to be Sangwoo, he happened to see them and so he managed to get his black box. Whether he’s getting closer to the serial killer or not, Seungbae’s approach is very comical and illogical. A normal, good officer would connect the solid, logical evidences together to find the killer. But what Seungbae is doing is placing the one person he’s obsessing over - for trivial reasons and because of his gut feelings - in the middle and trying to connect all the crimes to him instead. He’s going backwards.
There are millions of people out there doing suspicious things. Why does Seungbae just assumes Sangwoo must be the killer and even goes as far as to investigate it? His evidences are nothing but gut feelings, guesses and luck. So no, I think being smart and having a good instinct are different. He’s a pretty lucky guy!
Well DUH! x) This isn't supposed to be romantic nor cute...Relatable? Hmm, perhaps. Sangwoo did have a pretty fucked up childhood and quite a lot of serial killers develop from these beginnings...and do you know, plenty of serial killers have never been caught?...I believe Sangwoo isn't so much about having a God complex. I could be wrong though. I have to see the Manhwa writer delve a bit deeper. ╮(￣▽￣)╭ I actually wish she would.
You know, you're right! I totally forgot about all these things! (Face palm)...It's because I am following too many Manhwas right now with similar story lines. Lol...And thank you for respecting me not liking this cop. I love horror, mysteries and such too. (▰˘◡˘▰)...I also studied Criminal Justice so this stuff is up my alley! x)...I just don't like this cop...and in real life we know not all the "bad" guys get caught...Besides I am rooting for the crazy's here. xD
Pieces of evidence can also be found by luck. Evidence always exists and it doesn't always require an adapt mind to find it. Sometimes luck can trigger an investigation, and hell, even "logic" has led to shit conclusions, as we've seen on thousands of wrong cases, and the actual KS manhua itself.
He is indeed good at connecting the dots but what are the dots? Are the dots solid evidences or just gut feelings again? Yep, mostly gut feelings. He suspected Sangwoo because he makes him uncomfortable.(!) He doesn’t like how calm Sangwoo is and as he mentioned before, Sangwoo creates different atmospheres every time and so Seungbae considers him a liar! Again without any solid evidence. Reason?
He remembers a case from 3 years ago, his first thought is “It could be Sangwoo’s work.”
He finds a black hair on his foot (which is a pretty common color in Asia), his first thought is “It must be from Sangwoo’s house.”
He finds out a girl is missing, he doesn’t suspect any of her friends but “What about Sangwoo?”
He finds out a guy is missing, his first thought, “It could be Sangwoo’s work”
He talks to witnesses, his first question “Do you know this guy? Oh Sangwoo?”
Now that you mention it, I do really want to see how Sangwoo views himself; as to whether or not he views himself to have more worth. And I do bring up the God complex because when you're obsessed with killing and being the one in control/being dominant at almost all times -- it kinda feels as if you're a God yourself. (that's only because I watched Deathnote, ha). But, yes! I'd love it If the Manhwa would delve even further into the characters, of course, many of them have proven to be dynamic characters but, you feel as if you could always go deeper. And I love character development whether if it's for sociopathic killers or not. Plus, I can't wait for what's to come. (〜￣△￣)〜
Yeah, I would like to see more about his childhood. It would go a long way in explaining his reasoning and thoughts.
Honestly, I don't know WHO to root for at this point. I do thing Sangwoo needs to be stopped from killing, but BECAUSE IT IS FICTION, part of me wants him to really fall in love with Bum and get his act together. (If this was real life I would want him rotting in jail for the rest of his life or executed, cause I would never trust him to really stop killing). That's why I am just enjoying the ride and waiting for what I am sure will be a satisfying conclusion, one way or another.
Death Note! I loved that one! Light was damn sexy and damn crazy! x)..Looking at I from that standpoint, it could be a possibility. I just think that because of his childhood, he developed perhaps an alter ego of some sort...then again he could just be a psycho with God complex. Lol
Maybe a personality disorder instead of an alter ego. ^^'
That is what saves me a bit ^^'...The fact that its fiction. Otherwise I would be questioning my morality and sanity... ╮(￣▽￣)╭...That's what I want to. For him to stop on his own, and fall in love with Bum...at the same time, how does one really redeem themselves when murdering "innocent" folks? At this point he doesn't seem to have an inkling what remorse or having a conscious entails. Lol And Bum, well, he's a whole nother can of worms! (〜￣△￣)〜
...the cop doesn't do it for me. He is annoying af! Lol I want him to be the next victim...and it makes no sense for him to suspect Sangwoo. I don't see any plausible way for him to make any connections and seems like the writer just wanted to stir the pot. ╮(￣▽￣)╭
