Behind Your Touch Needs Retouch

I really enjoyed 'Behind Your Touch' for its unique blend of comedy, crime, and drama. It's one of the better Netflix dramas, and I had a great time watching it. But I have a few concerns about it, so beware of spoilers if you haven't seen it yet.

If you're a fan of detective dramas like me, this might not be the best pick for you. 'Behind Your Touch' relies more on supernatural elements and lacks strong detective work. Even the male lead, Detective Moon, admits that only the female lead, Ye Bun, can uncover the truth about the serial killings. While the killer possesses OP psychometric abilities, their methods are far from flawless, and a diligent detective should have been able to see through the sloppy murders. By the time I reached episode 12, I had already guessed who the culprit was, despite the show's attempts to mislead viewers by attributing Ye Bun's visions and scanty evidence to other characters. The killer's motive is kinda of lame too, now I think about it. It could've worked, sure, but the narrative and the personality of the character didn't align for me.
As with many dramas of the past few years, 'Behind Your Touch' suffered from a weak ending. Those last 10 minutes, which had a comedic tone, felt unnecessary. After everything the two main characters and those around them had been through, it would have been more fitting to end their story on a more heartfelt note.

Overall, though, I would still recommend giving this drama a watch at least once.
