Comments

Tia Jun 04 2026 8:50 pm WEEEE SEASON 2 letsgoooooo!!!!! Fighting i am more than ready

charley Mar 10 2026 12:01 pm i have to agree with some of the comments here that the humanization ruined it for me. im currently on ep 9 and wish they kept her demon for until the end of the series. shes badass as it is why need to soften her character.

EDrama Jan 30 2026 6:31 pm Like Ellie said; the humanization is a little weak. If you compare it to The Genie show with Bae Suzy, it was done much better there. She is a psychopath and begins to feel love through lust, which I feel would fit this story line as well. Why be proud when you’re already in hell?

ellie Nov 08 2025 7:34 am the whole drama began to decrease in quality when they humanized justitia. she was doing just fine without the love line, trust me. it didn't quite suit the drama either

Chamonks May 20 2025 12:53 am Shin Sung-rok made quite an appearance in this drama. If I had to nitpick, I wish that they could have made better use of his character, maybe one or two episodes about his past, for example.

justin Mar 25 2025 10:32 pm great drama. so much hotel del luna vibes

SKY☁️? Mar 23 2025 11:40 am Best drama ever, after soo long i watched a great kdrama. SPOILER: I wish it had sad ending, it would give the 'hell' more importance. I feel that would be better. And omg the actress is just amazing

silo Mar 02 2025 3:14 am 2 episodes in and im loving it

borderline batshit crazy for a demon doing "lawful" acts lmao

Minnie Feb 23 2025 10:40 pm I was so late watching this just now 2025 . season 2 pls. , judge still have 1 more year and need more killing.

Both leads so good . Natural acting and they gorgeous. Kim Jae Young can play cop , I think he can do super hero, villain or bad boy , vampire …and more . He just has that calm but cool aura . Park is total A lister don’t need more proof about her acting skill.  Love fantasy suspense action drama. I don’t  mind with some blood splatter all over lol .

Hello Feb 05 2025 4:11 am It's me again. Just want to say I get Twilight : Breaking Down vibe from the end credit (the videography and the music theme).

Hello Feb 05 2025 1:15 am This is definitely a violence and gore series. There's a lot of bloody scenes, bloody faces, even women get beaten to almost death. Those who cannot stand that better not to watch this series. But those who can stand all of that, this is definitely worth watching. Justice is served. The criminals not only get what they deserved, but they also get to experience what they do to their victims. Incredible 10/10!

Jenny Feb 03 2025 11:03 am Why is no one talking about Yang Kyung Won's acting in Episode 5. And 6? That's Superb acting He deserves an award for that scene alone Not any one can pull off playing 3 different characters in one sitting???? At a point it felt like he really had multiple personalities disorder???

Ddeonu Jan 20 2025 11:42 pm From the first ep alone I was made that curious. This drama is not boring from start to finish. I like. Even though it is very sadistic, it is still seasoned with RomCom. I like characters Park Shin Hye, Kim Jaeyeong, their chemistry is really good. I like. And all the cast who play in this drama are no less cool. Highly recommended to watch. For me, it gets a rating of 9/10.

Rahmat Jan 19 2025 5:56 am I really enjoyed the series and loved the main leads

Guisy Jan 11 2025 1:16 pm To someone who said that this story doesn't make sense. Dude, you should understand that this drama is a Fantasy genre. It's like Nobita who has Doraemon in his life. Does that make sense? Come on!! This is a Fantasy Drama!

Kel Dec 16 2024 2:29 pm @Sun, his name is Jung Jae Bin, 정재빈

Haru Dec 10 2024 1:13 pm Started from rp the story getting irrational... And doesnt make any sense.. The character like bael, paimon n gregory is really dont make any sense at all... Why bother keep interfering with justitia when it hasnt even 1 year yet.. The demon rules is so irrational and Ridiciluous.... Like not allowed to become human and have feeling.. But letting them can feel it... I get that this just fiction.. But please make something rational too...

Yeruchii Dec 07 2024 10:36 am I absolutely love this. The concept and the idea behind this is very enticing and engaging. My only issue with this is the romance.. It felt like an afterthought just to bridge Kang Bitna's shift to being humanized. I'm not sure if it's because it's 14 short episode that's why the romance wasn't fully developed. it felt lacking. The chemistry wasn't chemistrying either. I love PSH. I grew up with her but even though she's one of my faves, I really can't feel her chemistry with her costars.

Anyway, I'm so proud of Park Shin Hye for carrying and giving Kath Bitna's role justice. Badass characters fit her more than the poor girl personas she always plays. I hope she does more projects like this. Those wardrobe was also so good!

As for Kim Jae-young, I'm so happy he finally landed a role that made people notice him. Most people don't know this especially the new drama fans but this guy has been around longer than the popular and trending actors these days. I always see his cameos here and there for several years and wanting more from him. So I'm happy 2024 was giving him that exposure he needed. I hope he gets more leads role and further recognition.

All in all, I enjoyed this very much. The concept of genjutsu in every trial is such a genius move.

Now I need something similar to watch ugh

M Dec 03 2024 4:27 am I really love Park Shin-hye's character here, and this drama is also so good. All the characters portray their roles really well. But one thing I want to pinpoint: what happened to the real Kang Bitna? I mean, we saw that she was clearly sent to hell by mistake. I thought by the end we would know what happened to her. Is she in hell, heaven, or has she returned to Earth?

emre Nov 26 2024 10:31 am So so. Starts a little bit mundane, it gets better in the second half contrary to most kdramas. But still not a worthy watch in my opinion(even though i like park shin hye).

Sun Nov 24 2024 5:15 pm Can I know the real name of the husband of the villa owner's daughter (jang myung soong) who appeared in episodes 13 ?? And His accounts?

Kang Nov 22 2024 9:13 am I want to see in season 2 the judge from hell. Its really amazing...the story, character and all of it. I hope the producer k Can make season 2.

Not An Igutu Nov 16 2024 11:45 am I just know that the church ahjumma and the team lead police lady Kim Soyoung are sisters in real life.

Ranya Nov 10 2024 3:13 pm Park shin hye became super actress here and I liked here fashion. style so much too

Sardonyx Nov 10 2024 12:16 am Very good kdrama in 2024. I wish there is real kang bit-na the judge from hell, so all evil people in the world will be punished and send them to hell

Bael Nov 09 2024 9:32 am I think this is my fav character that Park Shin Hye portrayed so far. Love her expressions, acting and fashion in this drama. Although certain parts of the plot is too cringe and they made Han Daon looks like a loser simping on the judge, the overall acting by the cast is top notched and I really enjoyed it. Like what alot of the audience mentioned, there are loopholes to the plot but this drama is still worthy of your time because there aren't alot of nice drama this year I feel.

Kim Ayaza Again Nov 04 2024 12:46 pm At first I was fascinated by this drama but in the end it was really messed up. The author just forgot the real Kang Bitna. How is the story of Kang Bitna after being chased by a lion. Then it was not explained whether Han Daon fell in love with Kang Bitna's face or Justicia's soul. They are clearly two different people. Does Han Daon have a problem with Justicia's real face. There are too many holes in this drama.

Bael Nov 04 2024 12:01 pm So being God from hell must be follow rules from human ? when people wrong, God must follow judgement from human ? and ML really really annoying, really Clown

Greg Nov 04 2024 9:55 am This is best series I been watching till end. The story line is seriously great and end with really interesting way. The ending of the show was good with the suspense still able to work on season 2 or might be however it will viewers discretion. I’m love it so much as end up very well with good wrap up. Worth to watch again

Eliise Nov 03 2024 4:57 pm This is the best drama i have seen ?. The actors are the best. Park Shin-Hye did something very different and she nailed it. Loved it ?♥️

Nimi Nov 03 2024 3:11 pm Thank you thank you thank you I really loved this drama Thanks to everyone that that gave me this great drama. The best for 2024 Thank youuuuu

PANDORA Nov 03 2024 12:03 pm “you survived because you’re cute” favourite line in the show. I don’t watch Park Shinhye dramas but this one sold me. The plot was heartwarming & sewed together perfectly. I love the characters, everyone’s acting was superb. Main lead stole my breath every time! 10/10

Lia Nov 03 2024 10:10 am I miss you guys already, the drama was sooo freaking good not gonna lie!!! Park shin-hye is so amazing also the cast! It was such an amazing act. This series deserve season 2!! I am loving it.

KST Nov 03 2024 8:36 am What an amazing drama! I really enjoyed watching this drama. Park shin hye and Kim jae young has done their job well. Almost all the characters are really amazing. I will recommend this drama to all who like to watch fantasy and crime law dramas.This is one of the best kdramas in 2024

Drakul Nov 03 2024 3:46 am One of the best in 2024 kdrama. Season 2 pls. ?

Hello Nov 03 2024 3:42 am Definitely one the best Korean dramas this year ♥️ If Park Shin Hye isn't married, I would have thought that there is something special between her and Kim Jae Young because they have great chemistry, their eye contacts express love and longing for each other, and that kiss on episode 14 was real.

Justitia Nov 03 2024 3:41 am Trial is finished. Superb drama! Park Shin-hye and Kim Jae-young slayed! The story is quite refreshing too. One of the best for me.

Ellie Nov 02 2024 3:52 pm We need a damn season 2 and we need more time again of oh na ra as her original form. It would be more fun to see her and shin hye in one frame again. Please

Shaoly Nov 02 2024 3:22 pm The ending left a confusion though! Will kang bit na stay as human or will she go back in hell?......The writer left is in shadow

Mi mi mi Nov 02 2024 1:53 pm When Jae-young said the fl is now his woman in the press conference I understood better in Episode 14 Great drama I loved it

^^^^ Nov 02 2024 9:04 am This show is really addicting. No boring eps and all characters nailed their role….. One of the best so far this year. P.S This is way better than QOT acting and scripting.. Kudos the team

sasa Nov 02 2024 5:08 am the plot is so addicting i even watched the entire series twice hence episode 13 i keep on bawlng and bawling on ep 13 the part that kang bitna said goodbye to han daon along with a kiss heart fluttering at the same time breaking it into pieces... why it has to end tonight..my fridays and saturdays wont be the same again..

Precious Nov 01 2024 4:06 pm This movie is so nice It's giving the actual vibe Romance and thriller perfect combo giving ? Percent vibes minus nothing ?

nana Nov 01 2024 4:00 pm Kill Bael, steal that Kylum and become the new ruler of hell Justitia! Then run the demon protector squad on earth with ppoppi!

Polly Nov 01 2024 2:33 pm The best Drama Ever! Park shin hye still have it It’s well written Their chemistry Is not much but enough Am waiting for last episode and it worth Waiting, I recommend this!

lovingyou Oct 31 2024 6:22 am It's been a long time since I liked a drama. I liked how they managed to keep the tension and thrill in every episode. I'm going to miss this drama when it finishes this Saturday. It's going to be on my fav list. Every actor/actress did an excellent job. It was nice to see Park Shin Hye shine again after DS. She shines in roles like this and I want to see her slay more. I want to kiss the director for introducing me to Kim Jaeyoung bc where was all this time. He people how to act I'm surprised he went unnoticed for all these years. I have faith in the screenwriter since she did a great job even though this was her debut. It deserves all the rewards. I hope people give this drama a chance :D.I want to see a season 2 but it probably won't so I'm not going to get my hopes up.

Xoma Oct 31 2024 5:30 am Loving this drama! I hope theres going to be season two, im also loving the fact that Han daon is inlove with Kang bitna, looking forward to more episodes!! Im also loving the fact that Justitia is almost humane mostly acting on her own than just being the cruel demon who judges.

Tomzy Oct 28 2024 12:45 am I’ve not seen this drama but the story line is giving the devil judge’s vibe ✌️✌️… I’ll definitely watch once it’s done airing can’t stand the suspense of watching weekly tho

xx Oct 26 2024 10:43 pm This is the second Kdrama in 2024 that I have watched while it is ongoing, after Lovely Runner. The storyline and the actors are exemplary. Park Shinhye you outdid once again your past roles.

Polly Oct 26 2024 6:17 pm This is so Exciting! OMG the best drama ever I recommend this ? Park shin hye deserves An award Am really grateful for the Screen writer??

Kim Ayaza Oct 26 2024 4:11 pm why is everyone here complaining about FL and ML's romance? It's the author's right to make the two characters fall in love with each other. The author probably got the idea for the story because she first thought about the love story between a Devil and a human. Ignore their romance. Why not focus on the storyline and the meaning that she wants to convey in this drama. Honestly, I like the story idea and agree with the concept of punishing criminals. In my opinion, it's much better if criminals are punished according to the crimes they commit. What's so proud of the law in the world? Even being in prison for life will only waste tax money. Criminals can still eat and sleep in prison. While the victim has died and the family left behind, suffers for life in sadness. So I prefer Justicia to work (punish criminals) than Kang Bitna who judges.

Nimi Oct 26 2024 12:54 pm We are proud of you Daon. This drama still remains the best for me.

shaivs Oct 26 2024 9:12 am This drama story is all over the place, like how they can easily access the secret room even the police officer know where to go when he save bit na, even the real bitna went there just by moving only one book for no reason at all. But shin hye acting is just worth watching, its more like a non logic comedy thriller drama for me it could have used a better writting but the phase would have been dragged. When i see holes in the writing like when bael told bitna "do not dissapoint me again" when he is aware that she fell in love with a human being already, I just laughed because Im used to it being a com-thriller i think thats the vibe since the beginning the story is nonesense at some part but its good.

angie Oct 26 2024 7:47 am so good!! as someone who is not a “teenage girl” i’m still so deeply invested. yes there is a bit of romance but the way they transition from mortal enemies to lovers is so perfect (this coming from someone who didn’t want romance in the first place and now im obsessed w both of them!!!). funny, amazing acting from park shinhye, and i personally don’t think the demon has become a “softie” at all—a bit more empathetic maybe, but she remains vengeful and bloodthirsty till the end. don’t listen to people saying it’s cringy and think for yourself!

Greg Oct 26 2024 1:07 am Fully recommended and the momentum build up is really great. Never I will say the thrill and excitement really never end. Keep watching and you feel it

Mav Oct 25 2024 12:06 pm binge worthy!! park shin hye never failed with her acting. can’t wait for next eps and hoping for a season 2 as well!!

(´∩｀。) Oct 24 2024 9:25 pm The concept has a lot of potential in the beginning. However, the whole plot story is all over the place. The rating is good because of the actress, actor and the torture of the criminals.

There are so many contradictive in the story, I don't understand what is the writer thinking and wants to show in this drama, especially the romance. I think it would be much better if there is no romance in this type of drama.

I don't like the characters of the ML and FL.

The FL was crying too often over situations that I think it is not necessary. Such a crybaby for the 500 years old demon.

Kim Jae-Young's acting skill is so great. It's such a shame. I hope he can cast in a really good drama next time.

Jess Oct 23 2024 6:29 pm I'm reading on other websites that this will end with 10 episodes.....is that true? or will there be 14 episodes?

Richard Oct 22 2024 6:29 pm The 3 sisters that acted the movie trued too

Gkaylee Oct 21 2024 11:11 pm park shin hye is good in here. she showed a lot more in acting than she has in the past. The storyline gets repetitive, which isn't the actor and actress' fault. it's an alright show.

M Oct 21 2024 12:05 am I agree that FL is zhowing different side to her acting skill but still....

If she was trying to keep her actions low key she wouldnt be so obvious in everything she does. Theres a lot of contradictory concepts in this series. The detective is also very tactless... This script is so loose in my opinion that the story line is all over the place. Research on other religions and what they actually believe should have also been taken seriously....

(-_-) Oct 20 2024 11:01 pm I enjoyed watching the series, esp when the real 'trial' starts. It's satisfying to watch those criminals get what they deserve. But the romance, I don't think it's necessary in this kind of drama.

Justitia Oct 20 2024 12:55 pm I think the Assemblyman Jung is Satan (and J). He's getting old and need a new body hence the body parts ritual. He tries to use his sons for the mission now (hence the 25yr resurface I guess). Notice how it seems like there were 2 persons there when Kang BitNa touched Detective Kim's body. One person shot her from behind, and also the drunk one wasn't the one that stabbed her (so Tae saved the drunk one and finished the job). They were also behind Kang BitNa's death (I wonder why she didn't miss a bodypart). The father probably killed the drunk brother's mother (as scene in the post-credits) and the guy says he's suffered enough (in the club). Another angle: Tae might be pushing Kang BitNa off because he's trying to save her. Nice drama so far but I prefer Kang BitNa without the mushy crybaby shit. She's too high-level to be swayed by love easily.

castlin Oct 20 2024 3:30 am this show is hit because of park shin hye. people love her. ❤️ this storyline is good for her.. she shows versatility.. you are amazing ?

acer Oct 20 2024 1:54 am @rara

its's the brother, Jung Sun-Ho

rara Oct 20 2024 12:14 am Could J possibly be Jung Tae kyu? He seems sus, Could J stands for Jung?

Nimi Oct 19 2024 1:31 pm This is sooooooooooooo great The best this year This drama deserves all the awards Park shin hye is getting all my respects,never knew she was this good. I’m in tears right now,I love this drama so much. God bless the writers and all the actors

Tams Oct 19 2024 12:47 pm I feel like the romance between Bitna and Daon would make more sense if Bitna was maybe a lower level demon or a newbie demon. Because it doesn’t make sense for to have been alive for so many years and plain old Daon is able to sway her heart. She should’ve definitely seen and heard worse stories than J’s murders so I find it hard to believe her heart softened so easily. I also find it hard to believe she’s idolized and well respected by other demons when I feel like her personality comes off more tsundere than villainess. It think it’d be better if she was a newbie demon tasked with sending 20 sinners to hell and she has to convince herself she’s a cold hearted demon every time she’s swayed, but ultimately fails because of Daon. However I feel like the Daon we’ve seen so far hasn’t really done anything significant that could cause Bitna feel compassion and love, so the chemistry between them is questionable.

Izzati Oct 19 2024 11:17 am So good! I love fantasy dramas like this since goblin its refreshing and makes me use my brain to think. I hope it gets a season 2!

Irish Oct 19 2024 9:40 am Who is J pls spoil me

Bella Oct 18 2024 6:13 pm Yes we need a romance genre and not only thriller…pls we need a kiss scene from this ppl they are cute together and I agree with @nimi in the 30 years old claiming they are virgins or childhood lovers troupe

Froline Oct 18 2024 2:46 pm The religious neighbor is the satan

Sormat Oct 17 2024 3:59 pm I love this drama. This one is not like usual park shin hye. I really love the way she delivered. Kudos to you unni Love you from Nigeria

Kikky Oct 15 2024 6:20 am Park Shin Hye’s best role! She is so good here!

Kdrama Lover Oct 14 2024 10:23 am I was one of those who aren't PSH fans. Her dramas give my nostalgia like She's pretty and Heartstrings but I was thinking her acting skills weren't IT for me. But this drama changed my opinion on her 180 degrees! Her acting is mesmerising, the script, the idea everything about this Kdrama is amazing. And to those who are saying they don't like her being a judge. Execuse me!!! She's supposed to be a demon, she doesn't care about humans she only wants to punish 20 sinners so she can return to hell peacefully and she must be very careful on whom she chose to kill so she doesn't get punished anymore! This Kdrama isn't about her being a good judge, it's about her being a devil.

mao Oct 14 2024 7:58 am The idea of punishing bad people not through law is brilliant but kang bitna is terrible as a judge, i was so stressed out during toxic boyfriend case. i understand she have to punish the killer but that case was bad example, the victim shouldn't have to suffer more.. I wish writer would pick better case

Also tho i understand some love scene are unnecessary but i get it they need something to hold kang bitna cos she is overpowered. also, i wonder if in the future eps there would be case where the perpetrator as group, because all this time it has been solo act.

Overall this is good drama and it's refreshing to see park shinhye not on her usual romantic heroine mode

Chogiwa Oct 14 2024 6:02 am For me this drama is a healing. With all the crazy society we've been living right now where many innocents got killed and those with power could do whatever they want, having someone like Kang Bitna in your side is going to be awesome.

Liz Oct 14 2024 3:26 am It would be a lot more interesting if no love interest involved. But I love the idea of punishing people just like how that person do their sins. And the way Park Shin Ye delivered her acting on punishing those lowlife is sooo good. I feel the satisfaction. But again, the love scene is really is not necessary

CrazyNotSoRichAsianDVM Oct 13 2024 9:05 pm PSH-haters, give it a rest -- this drama is actually good and PSH really nailed her role here!!

Not a fan of KJY acting so much, at times it feels a little forced, but he's actually doing pretty well in this series as well.

And this may not be a romance genre, but the chemistry of these two in this series is so good!

And this is a fantasy, action, thriller drama --- for a series in that genre, The Judge From Hell is definitely a good one. It's interesting and satisfying to watch.

Mel Oct 13 2024 7:23 pm This series is brilliant ???? I love Park Shin Hye's drama and Kim Jae young is so hot here. 1000% chemistry ???

Hoosierr Oct 13 2024 12:11 pm Park Shin Hye is killing it in every sense of the word. This show belongs to her and her only. Her demon sidekicks, neighbors are fun too.

Tess Hernando Oct 13 2024 2:08 am Not really a fan of fantasy kdrama, but this one is quite different and interesting.

Success Oct 12 2024 4:39 am I love k-dramas Can't wait for the rest to be released ?

JKL Oct 11 2024 2:04 am Enjoy watching Park Shin Hye in her naughty demon protrayal. Got to admit she is good in her acting. Demon or Human, most scripts have no logic, so just enjoy the flow of K-dramas.

Chogiwa Oct 10 2024 9:01 am Omo omo... Jae Young is so handsome hereee...

loverkorean Oct 09 2024 11:53 pm That's funny when people blame kang bitna be demon not powerful .You know that kang bitna in human form in human world that why the power so unlimited can used. Then also for daon why he still say how can human do that? to kang bitna because Da on still confused kang bitna demon or human .If we also don't believe fast when we found human is demon or whatever.This drama genre fantasy romance how people watched blame writer put romance in this drama I don't understand.people before watched this drama please know first reality and fantasy is different .

Hello Oct 08 2024 8:20 pm 2.5 of 5 for the 2 last episodes.

Not trying to be rude, but I don't understand why the rating is up. From the episode 4 until now the everything is so messed up. Especially from the character development, I think it's too fast. She's been a demon from half of century and suddenly she developed feelings for human and the ML, I don't think that makes sense at all.

And I don't understand the character of the ML who has trauma, can't handle the sound of the bell that triggered him, yet still managed to defend the murderer for the name of justice. Too unreasonable.

Not fan of the love story line between the FL and ML, it feels so forced, like, "They should be fall in love with each other so the FL can face the consequence of having a human's feeling then DIE" thing.

And one more thing, I think Go Min-Si (The Frog drama) is more suitable for the role of the devil. P.S.: I don't hate Park Shin-Hye, just not feel the "evil" from her for the role.

What is wrong with the script writer? The concept is so good but the script is ruining it.

Faudzai Oct 08 2024 10:16 am I'm upset with the verdict made by Judge Bitna, but somehow I can relate. I think this drama is a satire on the broken legal system. as it mirrors what’s happening in my country. Recently, it was decided that a convicted tin corruption offender was only fined 5,000 rupiah, or about one-third of a dollar, and sentenced to three years in prison for obstructing an investigation, not for the corruption itself.

Noonim Oct 07 2024 12:46 am I’m enjoying this show!!!! Love the casting and the script! It’s a bit dark, but that’s what unique about this show. Loving the two main leads!!!!!! ❤️

Bora Oct 06 2024 3:54 am The first 2 episodes were so good and I had high expectations. But this week's episodes...just made no sense. As others have said, is there a reason Why Bitna can't kill the people in jail and stage it as a suicide or something? And Daon's character is a bit too...frustrating? He knows Bitna is a demon...and he knows that demons aren't Good...right?? So why does he always seem so *surprised pikachu face* when he finds out that Bitna is not a good person and she may be a killer. When he asked her "How can a human do that?" I was like...bruhhhh she's not a human, she's a demon.

Vin Oct 06 2024 2:09 am Yeah. Just put them on jail and kill them there. Poor to the victim with this kind of judgement. Judge Kang not match with human court, stay at hell then.

Mbokne Sapi Oct 05 2024 5:24 pm I don't understand why judge Kang didn't put them in jail and kill them there, she has the ability to do that, she could even disguise it as suicide rather than get suspected by the detectives. The casts did their job very well, unfortunately the scriptwriter is not that good

Dramakid Oct 05 2024 10:04 am Damn...every ep ends on a cliffhanger. Honestly,I'm surprised at how good PSH is nailing this role. Especially when she's about to serve them their punishment..lol. She should start picking these kinds of roles...shows her acting prowess. Plus I'm loving their chemistry. KJY is also a good actor...and also very very super attractive lol

Abian Oct 05 2024 6:31 am Haha, it's crazy! In every case, there's always actor with outstanding acting skills. The two lead actors really have to work hard just to avoid looking bad next to them.

Precious Oct 04 2024 8:39 am When will the complete season be out

No Oct 03 2024 1:53 pm I've been enjoying this drama so far, but I'm afraid they'll add romance in this drama. I am no hater of romance, but I love to watch Shin Hye being badass and evil until the end, and there's no romance tag in Wiki.

Mia Oct 01 2024 7:53 pm Never expecte for Park Shin Hye to be this bad ass, she is amazing in this role. it fits her like a glove. Kdramas need to give her more of this kind of projects and diversity. giving her this role was a stroke of genius. i hope she wins an award for this drama, she deserves it. plus, i haven't been interested in a kdrama for some while now, last i saw was queen of tears. that beeing said, i have 4 issues with the drama: Nr.1. what is this confusing plot hole about the number of sinners she needs to bring to hell? Bael crealy said in first episode and third one that she needs to being to justice 10-20 SINNERS, so how does it count togheter with the victims? makes no sense that if a person kills 2 people is countend as 3 with the first case. are you counting victims or sinners, which is it? Nr.2 why is Justicia portrayed as an evil deamon. when she is suposed to be an impartial judge, her name is Justice. this makes no sense to me. if she is the judge in the afyer life why is she a deamon? she should be a neutral beeing, otherwise, isn't that a contracdiction of her purpose and existance? Nr.3 Makes no sense that Justicia would condemn a woman who never killed to eternal Hell without checking all the facts first, she wasn't even on the list and is her purpose to check facts anf give accurate judgment. that felt out of character for what her purpose was and she wasn't even remorseful for such obvious mistake on her part. and after that no one rectified their mistake, they just let that innocent human rot in hell. is she supose to wait in hell for an enire year when she wasn't even guilty? and Nr. 4 why is this dreama only 14 episodes? not even the usual 16 for short dramas? come on, you can do so much with this plot, and Park Shin Hye is killing it in this role..i'm a bit sad about it... anyways, i tried to look up this writer but i couldn't find any of their works. i woner if they are new, because if they are..they still done a great job despite few plot holes here and there. i kinda wanna see more of their works

Zu Oct 01 2024 3:29 pm With the ending of ep 4 I am afraid there will be romance and focus on it at some point :( I felt so interesting drama without having romance included that wouldn’t make sense. Hopefully it won’t ruin the show because it’s so good

Noonim Oct 01 2024 3:35 am Shin-hye, amazing actress!!!!! This role was made for her!!! Great job casting and living her relationship with Jae-young! Definitely a hottie!! Perfect casting and storyline!

Sal Sep 30 2024 12:10 pm Am loving this drama ❤️❤️ i wish demon have a chance in love life, the real Kang bitna can end up with assembly man's son or someone else .anyone agree with me ? (??)

cliff Sep 29 2024 11:54 pm i like this .. a bit of comedy, drama , fanstasy, thirller, action... of course no happy ending... jist the way i want

Ming Sep 29 2024 3:08 pm The ending of this drama is so unpredictable, like what is going to happen to the real kang bitna after justitia kills all those people? Is she going to get arrested? Who is going to believe a demon possessed her body? Is Han daon going to fall in love with bitna or justitia?

Bitna Sep 29 2024 2:49 pm This drama and the cast deserve a standing ovation, omg. I totally underestimated park shinhye as an actress, she nailed this role totally. I have no words honestly. Can’t wait for more episodes

Hani Sep 29 2024 10:35 am This Was So Good! tbh when i first watched the trailer, though it seemed interesting, i wasn't confident it'd exceed my expectations. but boy was i wrong! the acting, the chemistry, the storyline, the cinematography - it was all Superb! the production team chose the best actors for this and it enhanced the overall quality of the drama. the plot might not be that original, especially since i've read tons of novels with a similar plot, but what matters is The Execution and they did well! i love park shinhye's character! she did great. god, i just can't Shut Up about the actors! see, when everybody acts really well, it just makes everything much better than it already is... i hope it'd stay interesting until the end. the start is so promising! i swear 2024 dramas are all beyond my expectations... e.g., this drama, What Comes After Love, Lovely Runner, etc

C Sep 29 2024 10:13 am Its like the anime version of hell girl (enma ai).

Zena Sep 29 2024 10:13 am Park shin hye is badass with this role .. I just hope netizens won’t stir up rumors that she used to bully people in school because she nails this kind of role ??

Jillybean Sep 29 2024 6:24 am You know I was skeptical about Park Shin Hye playing the role of a badass demon judge + I’m not really a fan of her…But Goddamn She Slayed So Hard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The role suits her 1000% and she doesn’t even look like she’s acting?? She’s so cool and beautiful!!!! Pls she needs more badass roles rather than poor girl roles. Other than that, the plot’s great! The revenge against the villains is mega satisfying and Kim Jae Young is super handsome. Can’t wait for more eps!

I’m officially a Park Shin Hye fan now!!! Keep on slayin unnie!!!

keitaro3660 Sep 29 2024 2:53 am @seokjinie the number will go up depend on the number of people that the murderer have killed. so next episode she will add up 3 because the killer in episode 5 has killed 3 people, so the number will be 6 for her. adding 12 from Han Dao parent, so it will be 18 people. she need 2 more, 1 is for her own killer (the past Kang Bitna), and we dunno the other 1.

Ross Sep 29 2024 2:05 am OMG the drama is very interesting!! Park Shin Hye is very beautiful and stylist!! Love from Malaysia 1000 time for Park Shin Hye ! Worth watching his drama !!!! 5 star

seokjinie Sep 29 2024 2:01 am i think the last case will be about han da on's parents' murdered, the serial killer who killed 15people

seokjinie Sep 29 2024 2:00 am this series is so good! park shin hye acting is on top! anyways, can someone clarify, does she need to kill 20 murderers? or murderers who killed 20 people? i got confused on ep4 durijng bit na and arong convo

keitaro3660 Sep 29 2024 1:40 am just watched episode 3 and 4, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa this is the Best Drama of 2024 for me!!!!!!!!!!! 10/10!!! how Kang Bitna handle the bad guys is always satisfying to watch!! We Need Her to Judge this messed up world where murderer still alive and only go to jail for several years!!!!!!

Tomilayo Anuoluwapo Sep 28 2024 8:01 pm Pls why is episode 4 not out yet ? I can't wait to see the way park shin hye dealth with that girl ?

Jk Sep 28 2024 6:20 pm i have a feeling that jung tae kyu is the one who stabbed kang bitna. and Han Da on's misfortune is brought upon by Jung Jae Gul.

Winnie Sep 28 2024 10:53 am Love Park Shin Hye's acting in this drama and this is coming from someone who has hated all the dramas she's ever done. Her chemistry with the male lead is interesting and I like that she has taken a different role this time!

The story is really good! I love the Halloween vibes I'm getting from this!

poolah Sep 27 2024 9:01 pm Good chemistry that I am sensing this will have a sad ending T_T

Flam Sep 27 2024 10:39 am Demon that kill evil people who don't reflect their action? If it's devil, it should help the evil to turn more evil or drag more people to be evil. It would be better if the devil helping the bad guys so they can be bad with payment of their soul ?

Lala Sep 27 2024 8:54 am You nailed it Park shin hye. Fighting! Superbb! This is so refrshing and loving Kang bitna. Kudos to all cats and staffs, director. Chill❣️

recommend worth to watch pls Sep 27 2024 7:54 am can you guys recommend kdramas like this? tomorrow, uncanny counter, etc.

but my main fav is comedy, Waikiki 1 and 2, sound of your heart.

Kerry Sep 26 2024 7:01 am How many episodes are out?

Es Elle Sep 25 2024 1:03 pm Love that they released this close to beginning of Oct, it has Halloween vibes. Can’t wait to see how this drama unfolds!

lifeiscoolbcbndsaidso Sep 25 2024 7:54 am here for kim jaeyoung! daon so far has my whole heart.

Immortal Emperor Sep 25 2024 3:48 am So no info for the family of Kang Bitna. She's a judge and Ex fiance of the Eldest son of Assemblyman Jung. She's definitely not from a poor family right ??

Fizzy Sep 24 2024 5:30 pm I am loving every bit of this drama, should I say this is one of Park Shin Hye's best drama. The acting is topnotch, her facial expressions, even the switching of characters from her calm demeanour to a villain within seconds. She deserves an award for this phenomenal acting!!! This drama is a Work Of Art!!!?

Gehenna Sep 24 2024 3:32 am Love It! Shin hye never fail and perfect for this character ❤️❤️❤️

cant wait for eps.3 hwaaa Perfect!!!! ❤️

Darkeyes28 Sep 23 2024 2:05 pm Bad ass Shin Hye.....i am loving it! It suits her very well.

Zu Sep 23 2024 11:28 am The drama seems promising I really like what they did to the first guy. Reverse psychology is pure hell ! However what I am worried about is that they will add romance and make a pure demon from hell being lovey dovey falling in love.. I hope not and she keeps acting like a demon but with a fair judgment at some point.

Nimi baddass Sep 23 2024 7:45 am Seeing a baddass-hye is refreshing lmaoo,I love it. It looks promising.

Kim je young is so lucky,always working with baddasses Lmaoooo.

Onie Sep 23 2024 5:22 am I loveeeeee itttttt, i will always look forward to the new ep!

FG Sep 23 2024 3:40 am A diff Park Shinhye this time. I love how she is portraying her role in Oh Nara's (Justitia) acting style and delivery. Too early to judge the series as a whole but happy for PSH.

keitaro3660 Sep 23 2024 3:03 am OMG!!! this is my new favorite drama!!! wooow the story of this drama is really unpredictable and fun!! and ofcourse the most fun part is, when the bad guy is get what he deserved. but maybe the next case will be more and more complicated, with nothing like Black and White area. must be have Grey area too, like we simpathize for the bad guy? denggg

Sari220% Sep 22 2024 8:25 pm Good drama, good trailer, good intro. But sorry, i skip the hell scene because the demons make up too disgusting ??

Naomi Bella Sep 22 2024 12:34 pm Thank God I’m not the only one who thinks this is better than my demon becoz this is how they are supposed to portray demon settings…I knew psh will deliver the action role coz she did well in doctors…I hope they will be a love chemistry coz the leads they are already giving ??

Divine Locen Sep 22 2024 8:48 am worth it to watch ❤️ hope all to support this drama

seokjinie Sep 22 2024 8:14 am park shin hye never disappoints, also glad to see kim jae young as main lead

Shin Hye Park Sep 22 2024 7:59 am Better than My Demon.

This one is MasterPiece

crusoe Sep 22 2024 3:57 am after watching the 2 eps, i can already say this is better than my demon. lol. love park shin hye's sassiness, she fits the role.

loverkorean Sep 22 2024 12:58 am This drama is good. Park Shin Hye acting is superb and I hope people will support this kind drama about justice .

Jean Sep 21 2024 11:24 pm I like it so far, the stories within the story kind of drama. It's chilling and quite satisfying to see the abusive ex boyfriend to experience what he did.

I like some flirting with the leads but I wonder if they'll end up together, I mean, Bitna's dead/in hell, weird if Nara (Justicia) will be the one to fall in love with the detective, won't she come back to her original form, so it wouldn't be Park Shin Hye. And it's tiring if they're lovers in the past kind of drama, or the real Bitna's connected to the detective in the past.

Hope it's nothing like this, or other kdrama cliches since the justice, lack of justice, crime, repentance, non-repentance is already interesting so I hope it won't get ruined later as the drama progress

Syena Sep 21 2024 11:19 am Omg this drama is very good !! i love PSH and KJW acting!!

B Sep 21 2024 1:25 am This it is!! Can't wait for The Judge From Hell!

Adeulll Sep 20 2024 2:22 am Park Shin Hye is a Great Actrees. She is versatiles actress!! Her dramas are masterpiece. Stairway to Heaven, Tree of Heaven, You Are Beautiful, Heartstring, Pinnochio, The Heirs, Doctors, Memories of The Alhambra, Sisyphus The Myth and Doctor Slump! Everything is great. I watched all of them - And her film Cyrano Agency, The Royal Tailor, Miracle in Cell No.7, The Call, #Alive. Woooowww... She is still my crush, my idol for the industry of Korean Drama - She never dissapointed.

Kim Jaeyong looks good actor, handsome and i think he will be the next, my fav actor -

Chey Sep 17 2024 4:22 am I'm here for Kim Jae Young! Dropped Memories of Alhambra and Doctor Slump.... For me it's always been 50-50 with Shin Hye. Don't get me wrong I liked her in The Heirs, The Call, Miracle in Cell 17.

seokjinie Sep 10 2024 11:22 pm kim jae young looks like woo do hwan here

MLD Aug 24 2024 12:06 pm Hope there no romance in this :)

Faozan Aug 24 2024 9:33 am Wow

It's gonna be a hit ?

Saranghae ♥️ park Shin Ye

Sameer Aug 22 2024 1:26 pm Let me guess. The leads were lovers in their past lives and they will fall for each other again in present unknowingly. Such a unique plot.

B Aug 20 2024 7:04 am I am so excited for this series. Park Shin Hye as the devil? This will be interesting. Equally excited for Kim Jae Young. Let's see how the plot is. Hopefully, it will be an amazing one. Wow us!

Shinz7 Aug 19 2024 5:07 am Lets go Shin Hye !!!!

Shinz7 Aug 19 2024 5:04 am @R.Y No, this is the second time Park Shin Hye on Fantasy Drama. The first is Memories Of The Alhambra with Hyunbin in 2019

Adetoun from Nigeria Aug 12 2024 2:35 am I'm here for Kim jae young

Carole Geronimo Jul 20 2024 12:58 pm Kim Jae-Young is a great actor. So pleased that he will be in this drama with Park Shin-Hye. He does a fantastic job all of the time. Looking forward to seeing it very soon. Take care.

WilbertBayani Jan 03 2024 12:32 am Can't wait park shin hye?

R.Y Dec 30 2023 7:08 pm The plot and the characters sound interesting and it's the first time that Park Shin Hye accepted to star in a fantasy drama, I'm definitely excited for this! I have no idea why the person below said this drama is like My Demon when there's nothing similar at all except for the fact that this female lead is a demon like the Gu Won, but she kills and punishes evil humans while he only makes deals with humans.

KdramaAreSoGood Dec 29 2023 8:06 pm Wow!! Another drama like My demon...But it's a girl this time and judge at that
