But what is normal?

I backed into the wall, alarmed by the d...
"Hey can I go out?" I asked for the millionth time.
"No."
"I know I am supposed to be your captive but still, maybe I can go out to um... get a drink?"
"No."
I flopped back to the sofa having given up. I have been trying many ways to persuade Jimin to let me go, but they all failed so I resorted to the 'annoying him' way. But evidently it's not working very well either.
The handsome devil was doing something on his laptop sitting on the adjacent sofa. I grabbed the remote on the table and turned on the tv. It switched onto a news channel.
"In this special we will be talking about the infamous Busan Killer." The reporter said.
I looked over to Jimin and saw that he had stopped what he was doing and was now looking at the tv.

"We will now interview the officer on the case of the Busan Killer: Investigator Yun." The camera pulled away to show the investigator that questioned me the other day sitting beside the reporter. "Please tell us about the Busan Killer."
"Yes. I have been on the case since it became apparent that it was a serial killing." Investigator Yun said, "He, or she, has been dubbed the 'Busan Killer' by the general public due to him being mostly active in the Busan region. He seems to be an experienced killer since almost no evident of his identity is left behind in the crime scenes."
"And is there a certain demographic that he targets?" The reporter asked.
"No. So far, all the victim seems to be random and have no connection. There is also no specific time that he kills. His kills are quite frequent. However, a strange thing is that there was an uncharacteristic three months gap between his recent attack and the kill before that. It is also very peculiar that in the most recent attack, the victim was left alive. We think this might be a clue to his identity."
"But since no one was killed in the recent attack, how do you know that it was the work of the Busan Killer?"
"That would be classified information that can't be released to the public yet."
The reporter nodded, "What about his method of killing?"
"He doesn't seem that have a certain method. It varies across all the victims, including guns, knifes, and even just beating. But one thing they have in common: it is obvious that the killer enjoyed the process of killing."
"Thank you, Investigator Yun." The reporter turned back to the camera, "This is all for our talk with Investigator Yun. Now we will look at the psychology of serial killers..."
