Dude, episode 24 should be titled: Torture by proxy, Kimura Shunji style.
Did you see how he took out his rage on Spy Girl as well? We weren't shown that he was imagining it was Mok Dan he was dunking in the water but it was obvious he was taking his anger at Mok Dan out on spy girl.
And how bored he looked while torturing Gaksital fanboy. He must have stunted any kind of emotions or conscience so bad that he's now numb and dead inside. There are only two things that can get a rise ou of him now: Kang To/Gaksital and Mok Dan.
I think I am going to need detox before I'll be able to watch PKW in anything because right now, I just get instinctive appalled rage whenever I see him.
Yes, he was clearly taking out his anger at Mok Dan and Kang To when torturing that poor girl (who wasn't even a resistance member or a stroppy Korea Is Ours type). If somehow he got Mok Dan in some sort of relationship, he would abuse her without a doubt.
I think by now te biggest mercy Kang To or anyone else can show him is to put him down like a rabid dog. I think that must have always been in him - that psychosis - because sure the job can make you violent and dark but he has crossed any horizon of sanity and humanity a log time ago (one only needs to compare him with KT when KT was genuinely serving the empire, to see that).
Btw, the scene with fanboy and KT when the former discovered who KT was - eeeee! The look on fanboy's face was beyond priceless.

( ... )
Yes, he definitely lost his edge - he even slipped up to both spy girl and Mok Dan that he knows KT is Gaksital (not that spy girl realized that is what he said), not to mention he forgot the cardinal rule of treating your informants well.
I like your idea of little/big Shunji - a very small part of me is still boggled that the wonderful Shunji of early eps, who stood up for his friend against his family, taught Korean children, and sold his father's sword, knowing what kind of beating he was going to get, to save his Kirean nanny, has turned into torturer, murderer and war criminal
