Enquêtes Tactiles (2023)

A Hilarious Series with a Touch of Fantasy

Behind Your Touch is a Korean series that combines comedy and fantasy in a captivating way. The series is full of funny moments, plot twists, and imaginative scenarios. It does not aim to be realistic, but rather embraces its absurdity and creativity. The characters are well-developed and have great chemistry with each other. The series is witty and entertaining, but also touches on some serious themes such as trust, betrayal, forgiveness, and fate. It also has a beautiful soundtrack that matches the mood of the scenes. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys a good laugh and a touch of fantasy.

Came for the plot, stayed for everything

I just want to start off by saying that comedy thrillers are always very hit and miss for me as it's quite hard to put the comedy element into a serial killer series well however this drama genuinely had very good execution.

Story:
Did they drag out the mystery plot a bit? Yes. However did I carry on watching it anyway? Yes. The characters are very likeable, their relationships are dynamic, well paced and interesting and the thriller element kept me hooked all the way through. I did genuinely laugh while watching this drama and the cinematography is gorgeous. The storylines and backgrounds for all the characters are important and realistic enough to be relatable. The idea of a girl developing superpowers and working with a detective to solve a serial killing case sounds a bit mad but they did a good job. They worked the supernatural element in very well and this also helped the cinematography as well. The romance is also really sweet and nice however 2nd lead was my endgame.

Acting:
I want to praise the acting in this series a lot. The comedic community was portrayed very well and every actor fitted their role very well. The main leads were particularly good as they showed nice adaptability with the sad and intense scenes whilst containing their contagious cheerful personas. The male lead did his portrayal of an outsider city detective well and had a good balance of likeability but also slight annoyance when he went against our favourite side characters. The actors also all did a good job of being possible culprits which meant you could never fully trust who you thought it was. I truly love the atmosphere of this drama.

Rewatch?
Overall I would say it's 100% worth watching but I don't think I'll revisit anytime soon. In the future I may want to be able to see the cute less dramatic features of this drama again but I think parts of the plot are quite generic or forgettable. It's nice and watchable but not something I'll spend too much time thinking about.

I also want to side note that the intro and outro music is very good and I really liked it so I'm now going to go find out who sings it and what the song is haha. I know I've praised the cinematography already but it truly is amazing. Solid 8/10 for this drama as it kept me hooked all the way through :)

Hilarious

Yes it is butt touching. Now get over it.

This drama is hilarious. I enjoy it partly because I just shut off my brain, knowing if I want something realistic I will just go to work and buy groceries. There are quite many deaths for a comedy but the mystery is appealing and difficult to guess.
Our main characters are well played; Bong is sweet natured and Detective is bad tempered, opposite attracts. I have seen enough Lee Min Ki playing stoic characters so a rude annoying dude is something different, although his skin is still so glowing and perfect for an overworked detective.
Although the romance is subtle it touches my teenage romance dream: A tsundere and a puppy eyed girl reluctantly work together to solve a mystery. I go gyaa gyaaa internally.

A type of comedy that may be you cup of tea, or not

There is an infinite amount of misunderstandings, some are interesting, some are annoying and some are funny. Yebun is treated like a pervert even when she isn't and that isn't my thing, and there's no way for her to explain herself so that makes it even more annoying, main couple chemistry looks more like very close buddies from a point of the story on, so the romance didn't satisfy me, Yebun's delinquent friend is by far the best character with the best scenes and even her romance is better, I critisized a lot but it's fun to watch half of the time and you end watching until the end because you have to find out who is the criminal, good to spend time but far from being a veery good Kdrama in my opinion, this is all my particular taste but I know that there are people who like this kind of mistery/comedy/romance. I don't remember the music so I gave high rating.

Não espere muita coisa.

A série em si é muito animada e divertida, praticamente devorei os episódios porque parecia ser uma série sobre investigações que apesar do alivio cômico seguia uma linha de raciocínio concreta e bem estruturada.
Aí chegamos no meio da história, e tudo desanda.
Primeiramente, a série em si é muito engraçada mas coloca certas cenas de comedia em momentos completamente inoportunos (como por exemplo morder a cabeça de um assassino em série que acabou de te ameaçar de morte????) que não deixam a obra em nada mais leve, apenas idiota.
O roteiro se perde e você começa a sentir que o desfecho foi feito apenas para impactar e sem intenção nenhuma de realmente se conectar com a história.
O xamã ser o vilão?????? fala sério que decepção
parece que eles pegaram um NPC aleatório da história só pra impactar com um plot imprevisível.
A doutora em diversos momentos me irrita profundamente (por exemplo quando ela continua a ver um suspeito de ser o vilão apesar do detetive avisar que ela não deveria, tipo?????? ela mesma suspeitava do cara e colocava a vida em risco porque tinha interesse nele??? fala sério Horrível!)
Aí ele morre (Seon-Woo) , uma morte que sinceramente pra mim foi muito inteligente, dado o poder (podre também inclusive) do xamã (inclusive o que aconteceu com o filho dele?) e não comoveu em nada pq a personalidade do Seon Woo era só ser o crush sem sal da doutora (não tinham química nenhuma inclusive)
Do nada o detetive começa a ter sentimentos por ela (sem nenhuma cena que indicasse que ele via ela de uma forma diferente) e ficou por isso mesmo.
Começaram a investigação da mãe dela, que pra mim foi o auge do programa e jogaram pro ar pra entregar um xamã leproso vilão
Fora que libertaram um PSICOPATA SERIAL KILLER pra salvar a Ok-Hui do sequestro e nem usaram ele pra achar ela???? só libertaram o cara e usaram as pistas que eles JÁ TINHAM pra resgatar, isso me deixou pessoalmente irritada. Porque um detetive experiente e uma médica escolheriam libertar uma ameaça à segurança nacional em nome de uma pessoa só? sem garantia nenhuma de resgate, apenas ameaças? não faz sentido algum.
Fora que DO NADA tem envolvimento com o gangster que tinha treta com o detetive só pra entregar uma cena podre dele lutando num galpão contra 20 cabeças isso n faz sentido algum.

Enfim mais uma série com muito potencial que cagaram no desenvolvimento e final. Mas foi divertido.

I laughed so hard I got a headache

When I saw the synopsis of this drama last year I was convinced that I wouldn't ever watch it, but thankfully the creators and actors had different view and found something in this absurd idea that I couldn't at first. Thanks to them I am now able to appreciate this perfection of a drama with their flawless execution and humor!

Comedy elements seemed so fresh and unexpected to me, I was surprised so many times that I couldn't predict anything anymore, which is always a huge plus in my eyes! I want to take a moment to appreciate the glowing lipstick, going home by a bus stuck in a window frame, the great hair loss (how many legs our poor Gwang Sik had to touch to get such a bald spot? :')), a cute side story of Ye Bun's aunt and Jong Muk with My Liberation Notes references, Ok Hee introduction and her friends with Eonni guy always being on her command, some relatable embarassments of our characters, Mi Ran tragically developed spying abilities and many more.

There was a great balance between comedy and mystery. I liked that before the main serial murders case we had a few smaller ones which were a nice and hilarious introduction.
The plot moved dynamically from light to heavy and the characters were used very cleverly to achieve this. I especially liked the moments of Jang Yeol's cooperation with Ye Bun and Gwang Sik, who along with a few other characters added a lot of uniqueness and originality to the series. A diversity of characters and their potential motives for the crime made it impossible to quickly guess the killer, especially after so many unexpected situations at the beginning. The creators were able to skillfully deceive the viewers (or at least me) until the end.

Lee Min Ki was perfect as always.
But most importantly, I had so much fun watching it that any flaw doesn't matter to me!

Once again the same plot

"Behind Your Touch" is a comedy that recently landed on Netflix. It tells the story of a veterinarian named Ye Bun, who gains superhuman powers by chance. Everything would sound quite typical if it weren't for the fact that her powers are activated only when she touches someone's buttocks. Yes, our main character must touch everyone to see their memories. Quite a unique power, isn't it?

In the small town where she lives, two men appear. The first one is a Seoul police officer named Jang Yeol, who seems to have a grudge against Ye Bun from the beginning when he accuses her of harassment. The second newcomer is a handsome young man, a rarity in the town, named Sun Woo. For K-pop fans, Sun Woo is played by SU HO from EXO!

If you're familiar with shows like "The Girl Who Sees Smells" or "He Is Psychometric," you'll likely guess that there's also a criminal subplot. Suddenly, a serial killer appears in the small town, and each of the characters begins to suspect each other and their neighbors in the search for the culprit. Honestly, I don't consider this production to be of high quality, especially given that there are previous dramas about superpowers in the police, as mentioned earlier. Therefore, it seems they revisited the same theme but added the buttocks-touching element for humor.

The main characters, Jang Yeol, played by Lee Min Ki (The Beauty Inside), and Ye Bun, portrayed by Han Ji Min (One Spring Night), have an enemies-to-lovers relationship, but don't expect a full-fledged romance. The drama focuses mainly on the criminal aspects, leading to a rather complex storyline. Just when you think you know who the killer is, there's a sudden plot twist that will leave you surprised.

I'm somewhat disappointed that the main character discovered her talent and initially practiced it on animals, but then completely switched to humans. I think even without the criminal plot, the drama would have been much more interesting. I wouldn't lump it together with "He is Psychometric" and similar dramas.

After the drama, you can expect a lot of comedy. I can't even count how many times funny situations occurred or how many times the storyline made me laugh. However, there's one downside to this production: its length. For me, the story could have been told in 12 episodes, and the remaining 4 episodes felt like unnecessary stretching of some plot points. At times, I found myself feeling bored, and if it weren't available in its entirety, I might not have finished watching it.

In summary, it seems that they had an idea for the drama, though not necessarily an original one. After so many years and titles on air, it's difficult to come up with something completely unique. Nevertheless, I expected something better, and I think it ranks lowest among the three titles I mentioned. Additionally, I didn't like how many characters died and how it was portrayed; it felt like I was watching a horror film where only a few people make it out of the town alive. There were surprises and laughs, but is that enough?

Perfect Balance!

This adorable and lovely series is over and you can read my opinions without fear of spoilers *-*
Well, I wasn't very interested in it prior to to its release, and I was nearly ready to give up on watching it, but happily, as usual, a force pushed me towards watching this series, even if it first disappointed me. I was so disappointed after the first two episodes that I wanted to drop it immediately, but that force was still there? It held my attention and urged, "Just watch two more episodes!" And I'm thankful to this energy since merely episodes 3 and 4 were enough to get me hooked on this show.
For me, this series had a lot of excellent qualities. The first half of it was really amusing and entertaining. During the first eight episodes, I found myself on the edge of my seat and almost falling off laughing.
The second half kept the light humour but focused on crime and the murderer. I liked being perplexed about the murderer, and this series done it wonderfully. It made you suspicious of someone, then proved them innocent, then made you suspicious of them again. Although I must admit that I accurately identified the murderer.
The only dissatisfaction I have with their writing is that they did not place much emphasis on our couple's relationship... I'm pretty upset about this. Seriously, I was on cloud nine when those two were so close. You should have paid more attention to their relationship when they were so cute together. Shame on you.
Forget the writer's mistake, let's talk about our fantastic actors. Han Jimin, who becomes prettier and cuter with each passing year, and what can I say about her exceptional acting and charisma?
Lee Mingi! I'd only seen him in My Liberation Notes, and I believed he portrayed a unique kind of character! In an engaging manner! I adored his performance in these two series; he's a true talent.
Suho 🥺 Despite having less acting experience than the others, he expertly represented the skeptical and gorgeous lad next door; yet, he can always improve. But I feel happy for him because he was successful and shone in this project.
From Ok-hee and Mr. Teacher to the police head and our charming villain, the rest of the cast was all cool and likable. Overall, this was one of my favorite series this year, and I will miss it terribly. I should also mention that it has the potential for a second season, and truthfully, I can watch Ye-bun and jang-yool for many seasons.
