Now that I've got your attention REAL spoilers bellow:
For some reason an untrue spoiler has been allowed to run amok the comments here for way too long. I won't go into heavy details but here is the truth about Dulan, as said by actual people on reddit who have read the novel.
Dulan is not the villain, he is doing what Karen's mom asked him to. Karen's mom wanted her to have an actual chance at true love and so she not only told Karen everything about the regression when she was (in my opinion) too young (hence why she went crazy at that age), she also told Dulan everything. Dulan is the only person who ever really believed Karen's mom, hence why she asked him to make sure Karen didn't get pregnant with anyone's child until he was sure she had found true love.
Now this is the part that gets confusing but that I got the general gist of. Whoever kills a regressor while she is pregnant will be able to remember their past life as well. In the novel, Karen at one point becomes pregnant with Dulan's child, the child somehow dies while still in womb, Dulan then is convinced that Karen and Raymond do love eachother, so he pushes her out a window, making sure that she is mortally wounded but not dead and also that Raymond is the one who finds her and ends her out of mercy. This assuring that he (Raymond) will remember her in the next life. This is the only life that Dulan kills Karen in, and he does it because even though he does love her, he knows she never will love him back, and he genuinely wants her to find happiness.
He's just obviously going about it in a really fucked up way, all because he was trying to honor his promise to Karen's mom.
Now these last couple of episodes give me the impression that Dulan is setting things up for Raymond to have to kill Karen and therefore be able to remember her next time, but I have no idea if that's actually what's going on considering there has been no indication that Karen is pregnant, much less with Dulan's child. However, expression when she said she hoped Raymond would remember next time let's us know that he Now truly believes that Karen and Raymond love eachother, even if Karen herself isn't fully aware of it.
DULAN IS NOT A BAD GUY
