As Behind Your Touch nears its completion, the penultimate episode of season 1 sees the big antagonist of the story, the serial killer of Mujin, come out in the open in a shocking reveal.
Behind Your Touch pulls the curtains off the big bad of the show — the most normal-looking shaman, who harbors not just the secrets of the sham he’s got going on in the name of a livelihood, now that is the pattern.
The tinted puzzle
Jang-Yeol works a lot on the mystery of the serial killer and is about to make many right assessments and some wrong ones as well.
The last piece of the puzzle for him in finding out the killer is figuring out how the killer creates blackouts in their memories so that other psychics can’t see anything, mistaking the blackouts to be sleeping.
He figures it out when he looks through the tinted glass door of the car Detective Na gives to him. He sees that at certain angles, the stuff on the other side of the mirror is almost all drowned in black tint.
He figured out that the killer uses sunglasses to create those blackouts. Sure enough, Ye-Bun soon finds out that Jang-Yeol is right, when she spots Park Jong-Bae sporting sunglasses while preparing for Seon-Woo’s funeral.
Facade falls
The facade is taken out by Jong-Bae as soon as Ye-Bun enters his home to contribute to Seon-Woo’s funeral as well.
She’s shocked to see him with the sunglasses just moments after hearing Jang-Yeol reveal to her that sunglasses make blackouts.
Park Jong-Bae wastes no time using his power on her and learning that she suspects him because she’s just been told about his sunglasses trick. A once goofy shaman is turned into a menacing serial killer.
Motive matters not
When Jang-Yeol interrogates Park at the station, Jong-Bae himself talks about the motive with great amusement.
Jong-Bae thinks motive is something that the police are always obsessed with. He later reveals that he doesn’t feel any need for motive.
Jong-Bae’s father was never tormented by the redevelopment scam. Meanwhile, he also says that his motive had something to do with a commonality that all the victims share.
He later reveals that his motive was just fun, establishing effectively how he’s a psychopathic villain.
