Diário de um Psicopata (2019)

I like how Dong Shik think that he's a psychopath even though he know that his personality opposite to psychopath, i shocked when Dong Shik suddenly turn into a psychopath, he doesn't really show that he's a psychopath but when he shows it, it will make a lot feel shocked with how Dong Shik character suddenly change.

Dong Shik and Bo Kyung has a chemistry and fit in so well, they don't even awkward with acting together, this drama already interesting from episode 1, such a worth watching kdrama, it's also teach us to not believe in someone even they're close to us

Honestly the best plot I've seen so far and even though I love some romance - this drama did extraordinarily well without it. Everytime the episode finished I wanted to continue watching it so badly and almost lost it when I had to wait for the next episode to come out. The acting of both male leads was more than on point, switching between the nice guy and the psychopath. The female lead did really well too. The Drama was really thrilling generally but gave you some light-hearted scenes as well so you could rest for a bit so it was generally really pleasant to watch - good balance. To the music - "Wanna Be Bad" is amazing, can listen to it all day long and who doesn't love Woosung, am I right? :p

Overall a very fun drama to watch. It brought laughs and chills seeing Yook Dong Shik convincing himself that he is a true psychopath. I was expecting a dark thriller but the comedy aspects blended into the show really well. The story is solid and I am in love with the music. The cast was perfect and had great synergy.

You will watch Yook Dong Shik convince himself to be the owner of the diary and that he is a psychopathic killer. Seeing his internal turmoil and desire to live up to the image of his exact opposite (from pushover to predator) was a blast. While some of his psychopath shenanigans were very cringe inducing, I found myself enjoying the cringe.

The show just seems to introduce more and more misunderstandings and they are slowly resolved as you advance the story. You will laugh and you will cry. Highly recommended to watch.

One of the best k-dramas

Psychopath's Diary is humorous and at the same time, suspenseful along with the best performances. I saw a short clip of this drama a few months ago and I knew it, this is what exactly I'm finding in a drama. And here are the things I enjoyed the most.

1. Yook Dong-shik ( His emotions were on point, I feel what the character felt. Even though this is the first drama I've watched from Yoon Shi Yoon, he has become my fav actor now )
2. Unnecessary Dramatic background music ( I love it every time, that one whistle music played, it was hilarious and matched perfectly with the plot )
3. The Side Characters ( Every single actors done a great job, especially Park Sunghoon. His acting was amazing that I wanted to slapped him )

Overall this is a 10/10 for me, I loved, LOVED it! And gonna be exploring more Dark-Comedy genre. ( Ngl, ML is a little too dumb at some point, but that's what makes the drama alive )

worth it.

i was skeptical,, bc of some reviews but i still wanted to give it a try.. i didnt really check the summary and just jumped right in. i still enjoyed it alot! at first it was like an eh its ok but as characters joined in and the story progresssed i was super into it!

the actor who played dong sik did a rlly good job bc omg i loved his character sm and the way he executed it!!! dong sik is funny, clumsy, a bit dumb but he's a really good liar and actor. bluffing is literally his specialty! i cant get enough of him. dong sik's and bo kyung's dynamic was amazing and entertaining to watch! literally got me on my toes waiting for what's going to happen next! all the actors did a really good job!

the plot was good and it didnt feel very dragged out imo,, just a guy thinking he's a psychopathic murderer.
the drama had more comedy (?) than i thought it would but im not complaining bc i loved it!! i was giggling all night to myself as i watched it,,, maybe my neighbours think that im a psycopath now

anyway i would totally reccomend giving this a shot!!<3

Definitely worth watching!

Psychopath Diary is really worth your time and let me tell you why. The series is both a comedy as well as a thriller and it excels in both genres. The tense scenes of the series truly keep you engaged because there is a variety in how the series handles tension. At some points, you can accurately guess what is going to happen next, but then the series still surprises you with something new! The balance between the comedy and thriller genres is well done too, and the show doesn't always take itself too seriously. And that works perfectly.

The acting is outstanding too. All actors and actresses portray the characters convincingly and the casting is therefore perfect. Park Sung Hoon is super convincing in his role. With minimalistic changes in his facial expressions or his body language, he manages to be incredibly threatening and intimidating. Yoon Shi Yoon is also perfect for his role. He can easily switch from one side of his character to the other without losing the baseline of what makes his character that character (sorry if that is too vague, but I want to keep this review as spoiler free as possible). Jung In Sun is, again, also perfectly cast. Although her character is one of the more serious ones, she too brings fun and tension to her character, making her lovable too. Of course, the supporting cast has done an amazing job as well. All performers truly belonged in their roles.

I think that if this series had been shorter I would have given it an 8.

The drama has its funny and satisfying parts. Even some parts that become quite addictive to watch, smile from ear to ear moments. But those last few episodes are so incredibly frustrating and not in the good way.

I want to say that I think the drama suffers most from the writing of its characters.

I could never for the life of me root for FL one. This is not the actress' fault, the character started out as an incredibly mediocre and even corrupt cop, going as far as to hide her own crime against ML. As she progressed she became more of a nuisance than someone I wanted to succeed. She is not a passive character by any means, but my gooness there were times when I just wanted to estrangle her because of incompetence. By the end of the drama when she is put in danger after achieving a whole lot of nothing (I think she forgot her cop training and prefered to watch as ML and antagonist fought it out instead of REACTING and trying to escape... granted she did escape but girl took her sweet time). I was honestly rooting for the amazing likeable villain to just off her and do the world a favor.

ML... ML is on and off for me. At the start of the drama he's this doormat annoying character. I sometimes felt sorry for him, but the way he acted just rubbed me off the wrong way at times... he was too over the top with his depression and sadness that I could not buy it. I personally think the tone of making him a comedic character and addressing themes such as suicide and abuse with comedy was not the ticket... I started rooting for him when he gained confidence and started behaving like a psycho and I consider these scenes the most entertaining ones out of the drama. I wish that sort of character development had stayed... as soon as he "kills" the informant he completely reverts back to his dormat over the top self and it just goes downhill from there. Because his acting when he's the pushover is so exaggerated to the point of satire, I could not take his genuine tragic situation seriously. He also had a tendency of not using logic at the most important of times for plot convenient reasons and that frustrated me to no end and not in a good way. There's nothing worse than an incompetent protagonist. He is not as useless as FL though, so I'll give him that. I also think this is a writing problem... and partly the actor's interpretation of ML when he's on doormat mode. It was just too ridiculous for me and it pushed me out of the story.

Main antagonist was a joy to watch. 10/10. I was rooting for you dude, next time pull the trigger faster. Awesome character and such a charismatic actor. YES. Absolutely.

Surprisingly, the side characters were more likeable than the 2 leads. I think they were used properly. Some of them were a bit annoying at times but because they were not on screen all the time they grew on me.

All in all this drama is not terrible... it gave me some genuine laughter at some point but it drags so much after the midpoint... should have been shorter by like 6 episodes.

Hilariously Scary

When I saw this series it blew my mind how you can throw physiological thriller, serial killer and comedy into the same show so naturally, as a psycho thriller fan I dove straight into this epic roller coaster! I loved every minute of this series and all the cast brought their own spice to this dish. There's characters you can relate too and of course ones you're gonna love to hate! I had constant anxiety through this series but the dark, random, quirky humor lit it up flawlessly. I loved that even though it ran you in circles it never got boring and everything tied into itself perfectly. There was no unnecessary drama that split off from the main story, there was one consistent story and I definitely enjoyed that. The MC was so cute and turned off his goofy cuteness for a sinister killer vibe flawlessly!
I can't imagine having the HORRIBLE luck the MC had and you get to experience it all in 16 fun filled eps lol
Enjoy...

There are two ships I love in this drama: the ML and his older gangster follower, and ML and the real psychopath. If you’re looking for romance, look elsewhere. The drama has some funny moments and fine acting. Even though the ML thinks he is a psychotic killer, when he actually tries to hurt a person, his innate goodness wouldn’t let him do it. I guess if ML did end up really hurting/killing, the drama would turn into something else, darker, more twisted. Maybe the writers want to convey that you can’t hide your inner self, whether good or bad. Or maybe they don’t want to go down that twisted, dark path. I actually feel sympathetic towards the real killer, especially seeing how he was raised by a crazy controlling father.
