Strong Start, Unsatisfying Ending
The drama started really strong. It was fun, stylish, and different. I loved Justitia/Judge Kang’s character and the way she punished criminals. Watching her make killers experience what they did to their victims before sending them to hell was honestly the most satisfying part. The mystery was also interesting, and the serial killer trial was one of the strongest parts. The concept and the first half were solid.
But somewhere in the middle, it started losing its charm. Judge Kang is supposed to be a 500-year-old, high-ranking demon, yet she was surprisingly careless and unaware. Too many people figured things out before her, which made her look amateurish.
The romance was another weak point. The romance is written well, but somehow the delivery and emotions are not hitting. the chemistry between leads characters is nil.
I couldn’t get invested, especially with the whole identity/body situation(in the beginning we see Justitia's real face in hell but once she enters kang bitnas body, we don't see her anymore even when she goes back to hell to punish taegyu). Also, Is the real Kang Bit Na still in hell? We never really get an answer.
And Daon doesn’t even know what Justitia actually looks like, so that made the romance feel even more off to me.
The ending frustrated me too. "WTF??"... After showing in such detail what happened to every character two years later, why leave us without knowing which choice she made? will she kill sinners and stay as human or deliver real punishment as judge and go back to hell in a year?
The demon-judge storyline is honestly the only reason I’m giving this 8/10.
The romance, ending, and Kang Bit Na situation are more like 5/10 for me.
P.S. Gabriel as the old lady was so cute.
