Yup that what I was going for when she said she didn't care. She wasn't evil per say but was ignorant. Also love your pfp 😍

You are missing one points here. It wasn't Satan who Tempted him though. When he killed his biological father first out of psychotic rage Satan saw that and made the deal. Also when Justitia approach him to do the same just to trick him he easily took on the offer and asked how many does he have to kill. Showing he was a deranged person to began with and that what made him the killer and Satan just stood by him taking advantage of his deranged behaviour.

1. Love the fact that writer didn't made serial killer J a person who is possessed by Satan. Absolutely loved that detail also the fact that he was a deranged person and didn't just kill cause Satan manipulated him.
2. I think the absence of addressing kang bitna spirit in hell was seems like a plot hole initially but I guess why she actually ended in hell. After knowing what Jung Taegyu did she actually didn't reported him and even said she didn't care. Next the fact that she actually was a corrupt judge maybe that's why when justitia was in kang bitna she is always placed in high profile case while giving proper direction what to state as verdict for them. So thorough that we see the person who was kang bitna may not be a murder but was a sinner. So I guess she was meant to end up in hell just not judged by justitia as she was shown judging murders only.
3. Thoroughly enjoyed that the end episode give us enough time for happy scenes and was not rushed or end with 5 minutes of happiness in this series.

I'll add as I remember more

I have theory on that. I guess she is in hell. She was meant to be there rather than heaven but wasn't supposed to be judge by justitia as she only judge murders and not just low level sinners. Why I saw kang bitna was in hell,
1. Throughout the show we she the demon kang bitna is always asked to be judge the high profile people, whose ruling was somewhat very lenient and pre decided ( eg- the episode where the company person killed the old man one). She was always asked by assemblymen to join for dinner during such cases. And assemblymen was always pointing how she changed saying she was not as cunning as she was when she wanted to join politics. All pointing to the fact that the human kang bitna was a corrupt judge to began with.
2. When human kang bitna found all the camcorder footage of Jung Taegyu she didn't choose to report it. Even though she is the judge who is clearly aware of the severity of the situation. She decided to do nothing and she literally told this thing to Taegyu that she doesn't care and won't be telling that to anyone very next day when she asked to dissolve the engagement and before getting stabbed. Goes to say She was not a good human and was only thinking how she can be part of politics and reach the top.

That was my favourite part too. I was happy that they chose to make Satan and serial killer two different person and not just killer being possessed by the Satan.

Wow! What a drama! Not a single filler/boring episode. Things that I love will be mentioned in reply of this comment marked as spoiler

Thank you, I am sorry that my comment came as aggressive (I felt that after reading it) also I take back what I said. I finished the drama and love how open ended it was but at the same time we see both of them are together in Japan giving another shot; especially when they have so much strong feelings even the after 5 years. I really like how none of them was toxic but equally flawed. I love characters like these.

It’s okay

I am not making fun of her haircut like the above comment. I meant the behaviour of the character was worst in OG (not just annoying like here) i don't have problem with the appearance or have issue with the child actor. It's the character I'm talking about

Thank you, as I'm reading this I'm literally watching the last episode and I'm already 22:54 mins in. Also with word bad I didn't meant in negative way. I love Lee se young and I watch her work a lot maybe cause "hit the top" was my very first kdrama and Lee se young was the first artist I have watched. But every drama of hers had let me down with it's ending. So that what I meant with bad. Like it starts with bang goes amazing and by the end it either has a plot hole or rushed or so many loose ends that never get tied down properly. I haven't finished this one yet, that's why I didn't comment here properly. I was just saying what I have seen before based on the og comment

I haven't finished it but honestly why every drama of Lee Se Young have bad endings

The one in og is even worst

Yes “Mingyue” is park dal in OG and the one character that is missing is is the other friend Tang

You are not the only one she is more horrible here. Also something to point is Dal mother is also toxic here in OG Mingyue mom was a tiger mom like if she won’t her child might lose good things when the child is literally high schooler then a working women with a proper job but Dal mom is classic toxic korean mom who is like i will control everything cause my child is good for nothing and can never be as good as me

Ikr, I’m sorry but i haven’t finished replay 1988 but it is wild to ask the question who end up with whom when the plot is so much focus on family friendship and community. The fact that 2521 is my absolute fav drama i have no beef with that the ending, it was perfectly done; but it breaks my heart to see people hating it so passionately and also commenting its only 15 episode for me……. Hmmm… excuse me. I enjoyed LR but yes I dont think it’s great. It’s like people watches kdrama with one thinking that is great visual with added romantic story. It’s like no other genre exist in kdrama and even when they watch romanace if its not the same things or chose same route it’s again worst and time waste

I guess the huge reason we know this, was episodes of back story from half of ep 9 and ep 10 and ep 11 which I see a lot of people complain about

Agreed. He just loved a girl said no to other, and then he died.

That is one of the most frustrating thing to me when ever I want to see the rating or if any new drama just finished aired every one is like , "happy or sad ending", "love triangle" and it just gets me like the plot the story the actor nothing matters and then those people are very active when it comes to rating and often leave a ambiguous review that makes other wonder "am I wierd that I liked this"

To me that was a bit necessary. Cause the way story was going, up until episode 8, even half of episode 9, I trusted no one. Honestly, not even seon Hui (for the death of Kyeong ho) so even when two different sets of story was told one to seon Hui under captivity and other to police officer I had no idea whose to believe. The bio dad said which also made sense and the adoptive parents skipping the part that the kidnapper is the biological dad of seon Hui and telling he is killer of their son (which is true) to police, made me still suspect them. When the story begin to unfold for biological dad in second half of ep 9, it was still confusing; him getting flashback of happy memories while seon Hui is holding on his wound and then minutes later we see how toxic he was. It was like two different sets of information.
When the story leds in ep 10 you actually see the full variations of his true colors. He is money obsessed person so much so that he doesn't bother killing his own daughter, and then I don't know how happy memories he was talking about being shot. Also from the very start of his appearance the fact what happened to Sang ho was a mystery, if writers didn't addressed it properly, it would have been a bigger plot hole. Also if the scene where he was manipulating them was absent it wouldn't made sense why a prosecutor was helping a man who came as culprit and would be a joke that just cause he had same name the prosecutor was affectionate (what an idiot!) that entire ep also shows the fact that how the adoptive parents were way more human and affectionate people as often believe got foster parents are not good.

Sorry for this long comment
