SBS’s Friday-Saturday drama “The Judge from Hell” presents a unique blend of action and fantasy, centered around the demon Kang Bit-na (Park Shin-hye), who possesses the body of a judge and encounters the passionate detective Han Da-on (Kim Jae-young) as she punishes wrongdoers in a hellish reality. 

The thrilling narrative follows this lovable yet wicked anti-hero as she dispatches deserving human trash to hell, showcasing a captivating dynamic in the complicated relationship between Bit-na and Da-on. Viewers have been drawn to the multifaceted character portrayals, rapid pacing, and skillful direction of the show.

The Judge from Hell

One of the key elements keeping audiences engaged is the unpredictable plot twists of “The Judge from Hell.” In a shocking twist during the November 1 airing of episode 13, Kang Bit-na sentenced serial killer Jung Tae-kyu (Lee Kyu-han) to death while facing her own demise. Although police found videotapes in Jung Tae-kyu’s hideout, it was deemed inadmissible as evidence. Bit-na was horrified upon viewing the footage in which Jung Tae-kyu confessed to his murders. His arrogant claim that he “only killed the hopeless poor” during the trial infuriated victims’ families, prompting Han Da-on, a family member of one of the victims, to plead with Bit-na for relief from their suffering. Despite the potential for saving her life by releasing Jung Tae-kyu, Bit-na demonstrated her resolve by imposing the death penalty.

In her final moments, Kang Bit-na told Han Da-on, “I loved you a lot,” foreshadowing her tragic fate. Although Han Da-on rushed to her side, he found her already stabbed. She was transported to the hospital but ultimately succumbed to her injuries. 

Interest surges in character relationships and the ending of “The Judge from Hell”

With the finale airing on November 2 at 9:50 PM for an extended 80 minutes, anticipation grows regarding the outcome for Kang Bit-na and Han Da-on. The production team promises that the true conclusion will reveal the characters’ final choices and the responsibilities they must face, ensuring that the finale will be thrilling and intense, true to the spirit of “The Judge from Hell.”
