Just finished part 1 of season 1. I can see that this is definitely going to be dark and not for those who can't handle nudity, blood and torture. I don't recommend this to everyone for sure.
Update— finished all the parts of Season 1. Wow, that was intense. Some parts were difficult to get through because of the horror in much detail, but I was too hooked to stop. It has loads of mind fuckery and very adult content. ( )

Soooo dark and twisted.
It's like a train wreck.
So gruesome and tragic, but the morbid curiosity won't let me look away.

Sangwoo is a very twisted and complicated psychopath. I love stories that have very complex villains. Yoon Bum isn't much of a hero, but his innocence is a nice counterbalance to Sangwoo's madness. ( )

I am a big fan of Koogi and I am a bigger fan of Killing Stalking.
I don't know what this says about myself as a human being. I can't recall ever reading a manga/manhwa/manhua so dark, twisted and bloody as Killing Stalking. It represents the darkest depths of human insanity. Both Sangwoo and Yoon Bum should be locked deep underground a highly guarded mental facility, preferably as far away from each other as possible. I can't ship these two. I can't. It's as if shipping Hannibal Lecter and Oliver Twist. But I'd lie if I didn't admit my heart pounded for Yoonbum when Sangwoo showed the smallest sign of ... warmth? what the bloody hell was wrong with me?
Why the 5 stars?
This manhwa made me stare in the eyes of the abyss and watch as the abyss stared back at me. It made me feel as if my soul became more tainted with darkness, chapter after chapter. I should have put it down after the first murder, or the next, or the next, but I couldn't. The first season went by, then the next season.
Now as I'm waiting for the 3rd season to be published I can't help but wonder if I've sold my soul to the dark side while reading this comic.
Killing Stalking was the hardest thing I've ever read and yet couldn't PUT.IT.DOWN.
I am horrified with myself...and aghast at how much it has jaded me in front of other abusive stories. ( )

definitely not my usual genre, and sleep did not come easily after having read this, as some parts were very disturbing and explicit. but i loved the psychological part of it and it was genuinely very interesting and intriguing, and also beautifully drawn. probably wouldn't recommend it to anyone squeamish or easily disturbed, though.
personally i did not feel that it glorified anything that happened in the story, and it was definitely not meant to portray a healthy relationship or anything. it's interesting cause for the most part i was just hating on sangwoo and waiting for bum to get out of it somehow, but then by the end, when i realised that they're both as messed up as the other, i thought maybe they're better off together?
i don't ship them by any means, but at least if they're together they possibly won't hurt other people, and i kind of want them to become.... equals?? kind of?? maybe?? i don't know i just hate seeing bum get hurt. eh.
that's just my opinion, and of course everyone is entitled to their own. i thoroughly enjoyed it and i will definitely continue reading it. ( )
