    Amazing Kdrama

    I remember seeing ads for this and being intrigued but didn't take action to know more about it. But with the circumstances now, I had so much time on my hands that I decided to give this a try.

    I was not disappointed.

    The cast was enjoyable and each one made an impression on me. The story flows nicely and kept me hooked and wanting more even if it was 3am and I had to wake up early the next day.

    There isn't any romance in this which is great because that'll just become very unnecessary and cliché. So for all those who are sick and tired of seeing romance in every kdrama ever, I'd totally recommend Psychopath Diary.

    The comedy aspect of this show is top notch and has made me smile like a madman a few times. Dark comedy? Just my cup of tea.

    OST was fantastic. Especially the part at the end where In Woo and Dong Sik faced off. Plus the acting? Awesome.

    Main lead is very lovable. The way Yoon Shi Yoon acted had a way of making me sympathise with him and now I'm obsessed. And can I also say Dong Chan is so precious I want him as my younger brother too.

    Anyways, this is a must to watch. Definitely THE drama that sparked my interest in the thriller genre.

    NO DULL MOMENTS!

    YSY is indeed a versatile actor! I have liked him since his Baker King era! I am hoping that the management give him more projects like this because this drama is top-tier! I like it! No dull moments because all the actors are amazing when it comes to acting!

    I love how funny yet cunning the character that YSY has in this series! He fits on these kinds of genres and hoping to see him in the screen again!

    Is there any movies or series like this that you can recommend? I need to watch a movie or series like this again!

    YSY, PSH, JIS, and the others need to be in the same drama again! I am eager to watch them again on screen!

    Good Enough

    " Psychopath diary " blended the genres of comedy and thriller so well that the drama was entertaining till the very ending.

    First of all, kudos for not adding romance in this one. The relationship of the main character and the leading lady was pretty great, with nice chemistry and amazing dynamics. Their pairing was pretty clever and entertaining.

    The performances were fantastic too. Especially the leading actor was phenomenal, and probably one of the reasons to watch this drama.

    Also, the cemody elements were plenty and they kept them up till the final episodes, although, I have to admit that they were less and less as the drama progressed. The thriller and action scenes were really good too, especially the mystery-criminal case was very entertaining.

    So, overall, eight out of ten.

    Unexpectedly Charming and Funny

    Wow, this show was completely different from anything I was expecting. I picked this up after watching Strangers From Hell, thinking it would be similar. While there were some similar themes, this show was definitely a comedy through and through. While the plot deals with some serious scenes, it balances it out with the comedy perfectly, creating enough tension to push the story line forward without losing its playful heart. I absolutely fell in love with Dong-Sik's character, and Bo-Kyung was the perfect partner for this crazy duo. The writing was awesome and there were never any boring moments. I also really enjoyed the homage's to some great movies like The Shawshank Redemption and American Psycho among many many others. I highly recommend this!
