Through The Darkness Episodes 03 & 04 Key Moments

Last week, the newly-established Behavioral Analysis Unit made a significant contribution to a killer who mutilated a young girl.

Ramping up their unit with information from their collated interviews, will the police organization finally realize their worth?

Unforeseen Variables That Affect A Killer’s Motivations

During their interviews, Inspector Song and Captain Kook established that childhood traumas contribute to the development of convoluted minds of psychopaths.

Moreover, circumstantial moments at the heat of the crime may manifest that would make the killer even more volatile.

This week’s episode also shared the back story of Ha-young and Yoon Tae-gu along with their annoying colleague.

Still not getting the acceptance they hope for, Team BAU needs to double their efforts.

Through The Darkness

A New Hard-To-Crack Serial Killing

Targeting elderly people in posh villages, a new serial killer wreaks havoc in various neighborhoods. Without finding any lead, but a captured back from a CCTV and footprints; the police agree to Ha-young’s proposal of an open search.

However, it has not yielded a favorable result. With criticisms from the media and their higher-ups, Team BAU is again at the receiving end of complaints.

That’s because Ha-young keeps going back to the crime scenes to check if he missed something.

Assuring him of not blaming their team since they also agree to put up an APB, they share a tacit understanding to remain hopeful.

While the serial killing investigation is at a standstill, another killer arises in the waning moments of the 6th episode


Through The Darkness Episodes 05 & 06 Musings

Watching Through The Darkness for the last two weeks and still looking forward to its upcoming chapters is out of the ordinary for me.

It feels like the narrative is aligning the goal of Team BAU in doing trial and error if something will work. Strangely though, viewers would feel hopeful that the team’s vision is viable. Something we hope can extend in the fictional world Ha-young lives.

In fact, this week’s episode even went for an unfinished ending but hinted at two serial killers to be chased in the subsequent episodes.

Ostensibly, with six more episodes remaining, we have yet to witness a possibility of something optimistic for Team BAU.

We can only wish for them to provide another significant contribution through their clever and systematic reports so their worth can truly be acknowledged.
