Demon in the court to deliver your final judgement

For all the kdrama releasing lately were having almost similar theme with a difference of 19-20 ..this one felt quite refreshing to me ..I read the synopsis long ago and was waiting for its release .. I have to say so far this is living up to my expectations... Demon delivering the final judgement.. perhaps these dramas are for the lame judges who study in Harvard ..waste both resources and time yet deliver nothing ...in my POV law doesn't help society the much it harms it ...and that's what clearly shown in this drama.


Episode one : introduces the story how the justitia demon took possesion of kang bitna body and started living her life ( not giving more spoilers )
Episode two : what an outstanding episode... The way she beats the crap out of that creepy abuser ..MY GOD !! I WATCHED THAT SCENE ON REPEAT ...SO SATISFYING ❤️

As far as acting is considered both ML and FL are popular and talented characters ... Watching Park since her role in heirs ..she is good no doubt about that ...

Story is quite interesting so far ... The only thing I am scared of is the low korean drama bar for showing violence. . I feel some stories need ample amount of onscreen violence to justify the plot ... Hope they can deliver it to end (VIOLENCE IN EP 2 WAS QUITE APT FOR THE CASE)

I felt music was a little bit louder ..not a fan of loud electric guitar you know ... But taste in music is a subjective thing.



Looking forward to next episode release and will edit the review in the end ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

In all honesty it is sort of strange to review a variety show, however, there are an excessive number of people that only watch clips of this show and rate it highly or poorly. I would like to give an in-depth analysis on why I rated this as an average show. And why certain ratings are as such:

Firstly, the strength of this show comes from two people in the cast. Kim Heechul and Lee Soogeum. That is it. Everyone else is relatively a non-factor since the dynamic between all individuals has been decided and the structure of how to treat guests or situations are relatively the same. I am not saying that if Kang Ho Dong was replaced by Yoo Jae Suk it would not make a difference because that would surely changed the entire dynamic of the show. However, the comedy and gags and pace of the show is determined by Kim Heechul interactions with guests and Lee Soogeum's comedic timing and ability. Honestly, if you told me they would replace half the members except these two than new gags would come up and new personalities and relationships would be highlighted.

Secondly, this show is build around Kang Ho Dong's personality which is loud, abrasive and often times insensitive. There are many jokes that are said that on any other show would be contraband such as divorce, gambling, alcoholism. This is refreshing in a sense that it makes everyone more human. However, it also means that the show must play on the fact that its the hosts of the "school" versus the guests that come. This can get boring because picking on female idols over and over for the same thing loses its charm after a while. And disregarding guests becomes disrespectful at times. There are moments where the hosts throw away this system and its image, however, that makes the show lose its meaning if done too frequently.

Thirdly, I will say it again, but Kim Heechul is the sole reason this show is where it is. Because giving Heechul an abrasive platform to make whatever jokes he wanted makes this show fresh. Seeing him talk down to SNSD or tell EXO and Shinee and Infinite to get lost are novel. Similarly, flirting with guests is also novel. However, there is a limit to certain things and certain things get repetitive. Making jokes about smoking is funny, but than it becomes serious after a while when you consider he could do it every episode. It would lose meaning. The main thing saving this show is Heechul's vast connections and his ability to talk and play off of them.

Fourthly, most of this show is boring. This is partly due to the hosts not treating the guests well and sometimes blatantly ignoring them. But there is also the fact that the guests are asked to introduce themselves but can't say anything that is "real." I will be honest, who cares about a spot on Jonghyun's body. I don't even care if its Seolhyun's body. Or how Momo feels about this or that. It's just not that interesting. The only interesting parts are when Heechul or someone else is able to relate and make it more interesting. The most boring parts, however, are the skits or other aspects of the show because to be honest they are not funny and do not play onto the strengths of the show which are the abrasive relationships between members and guests.

Overall, the best moments are when relationships are teased and jokes are made. However, this can get boring very quickly. Is it worth watching entire episodes again? Not really. Is it worth rewatching certain clips? Sure, just go to Youtube and you'll find compilations and categorization. Having people show off their talents is what makes things like this memorable. For example, can anyone tell me what Jonghyun and Irene did when they came? How about Davichi? No idea. Cause it is not memorable.

Slow-burn, largely unproblematic and realistic

Spoilers ahead: I'm sure I'm going to step on a lot of toes with this review. I know this series is highly rated but I find it pretty boring overall because I dislike slow burn dramas. While the story is fine, I feel like things are dragged longer than necessary and I had to skip ahead many times once I get the gist of the scenes. Speaking as a gay man, I have gripes with Korn referring to Knock as his wife (almost twice: once he almost let it slip in the hospital, and another time when confronting Pleng near the end of the series). Referring to the bottom as the wife is a big no-no as it's both heteronormative and homophobic. Released in 2017, they should've known better. I could be wrong but it's pretty indicative of the writers NOT being part of the LGBTQ community. Neither me nor any gay men I know would call themselves or their spouses their "wife." Vice versa for lesbians. As a community, we're just so tired of the heteronormative, male/female, seme/uke dichotomy of queer relationships. And to add fuel to the fire, I see comments that praise the "wife" line as the best line in the whole series. That's such a fujoshi thing to say. At this point (episode 12), I've decide to stop watching even though I know there's only 1 more episode to go. Consider that the last straw. Furthermore, it's pretty draining to have to root for characters I increasingly dislike, so much so that I no longer care if Korn and Knock get back together, although I know they will. I have no respect for Knock, who cheated multiple times, who can never be decisive, and who kept making bad decisions that hurt everyone around him. I also have no respect for Korn. Back when he claimed Pleng is innocent he cheated with Korn once again even though they were both sober. Of course, he also did the big no-no by calling Knock his wife. On the other hand, Faii and Yihwa are pretty awesome characters and they usually steal the scenes. While Knock and Korn's relationship has the potential of being quite sweet, their relationship (as with the rest of the relationships on the show) has been rocky for most of the series, which can be frustrating to watch. Representation and research-wise, I like that it is pretty realistic. With the exception of the "wife" thing, it hasn't fallen into any more of the pitfalls common to the BL genre. There is variety: I like that Korn is established as a gay character who doesn't care about others' judgment. Bright is an unapologetic, sleezy playboy (which is fine but he should've said so to Farm from the start) while Farm is as pure as it comes. None of them feel like stereotypes or caricatures. The show deals with realistic themes like homophobia (from Korn's sister), cheating, revenge, heartbreak, being outed, friendship, etc. so by no means is this show a whitewashed fetishization of gay men. The acting is decent, although Korn's face freezes whenever someone confronts him about something and I don't know if that's his characterization or awkward acting. Knock can't cry for shit. Farm's face always has the same look/emotion. Faii and Yihwa are hilarious. Lastly, I don't get why Knock was so upset at the start. They were both drunk and they agreed to have sex. Knock even bottomed without prep or lube, which is metal. It's not as if Korn raped him.

The most overrated drama yet

One of the worst dramas of this decade. It used controversies to gain Attention, it copied the concept of sky castle and the world of the married (both one of the top rated dramas) and showing bad contents without age ratings. It thereby built up it's hype with controversies and clout. Moving on to the main drama, the actors and actresses all over exajurate, everyone is evil...in real life we know this not true. Even minors are horrible, the drama is a mess. I will not encourage anyone to watch this, I would have given it a 0 rating but at least, they actually spent their time practicing, I'm dropping this for superior dramas like kairos and the uncanny encounter

I Detest GMMTV'S attempts at adaptations

I love Gemini and FOURTH which is why I have to drop this at episode 1 or I will begin to dislike them. It's not their fault but in my opinion GMMTV has dropped the ball in one way or another in every adaptation I've seen including FIND YOURSELF, F4: THAILAND, CHERRY MAGIC, OSSAN'S LOVE (which hasn't premiered yet but...) right now Im giving another adaptation from GMMTV in A LOVE SO BEAUTIFUL (I adored both Chinese and Korean versions) yet so far the Thai version is set on suck. Dew and Neo are 2 of my favorites but not even their charm and acting can save a GMMTV ADAPTATION.

Back to My Love Mix Up. Why Japan keeps allowing a place like GMMTV butcher their source material I will never know (I know it's the money)

Fourth is adorable and a good actor but I watched episode 1 and his Atom (Aoki) fell flat for me. And I can't say I blame him because the director should make sure he excels at this role. It's just not there. As for Gemini I was a little more impressed with his Kongthap (Ida) but not by much. Gemini and Fourth have a lot of chemistry but Fourth seems to be trying to hard to pull this off and as such for me their chemistry is lacking here.

I will admittedly say I did not have the privilege of reading the manga so I'm not sure if this Thai Adaptation is closer to the manga then Kieta Hatsukoi. There Aoki was more of an adorable spas yet so lovable against Ida's straight laced smart guy with no concept of what it means to like another person.
Fourth is playing Atom like he wants to be like Aoki but he's more like a slightly different version of Gun (his role in MSP)
So for me I will end with Episode 1 and go watch Kieta Hatsukoi again to show how this really should be done with Aoki, Ida, Hashimoto and Akkun (Aida) in the only version I want to remember.

I'm actually about to cry.

Rated= 1~ 20/50 ~ 4
RPG Scene // Ogre about to R.I.P me in Haunted House. It ate my short sword.

We all have emotional boundaries when we're watching shows and this one crossed mine.

I was LOVING this. It was sitting at a solid 8.5 rating. I was sitting thinking I had found another favourite for my list. A FL I could support. Humour that landed on me. A plot I was invested in. Gone in a 30 second scene.

My no.1 rule for writers is when you use violence against animals and children, you do it tastefully.

This 12 rated show can't show us a proper kiss but is perfectly happy to show us a baby getting his eyes gouged out. A BABY, screaming and crying, while a man puts his fingers through his eyes. Telling us is one thing. Actually showing us it, is another.
But heaven forbid you show us an actual proper kiss between two lovers.

No. Just No.

You suck and don't deserve anymore attention.

Gone With The Wind Joseon Style

This drama has Gone With The Wind written all over it. That was obvious by the second episode. Lee Jang Hyun is the rakish Rhett Butler, Yoo Gil Chae is the willful and determined Scarlett O'Hara, Nam Yeon Jun is the wavering Ashley Wilkes and Kyung Eun Ae is the trusting and loyal Melanie Wilkes. I'm 6 episodes in so I wonder if they'll do anything to make the story a bit more original. I hope so.

As always Namkoong Min is excellent. I just wish the dialogue was worthy of him. The character is a bit too loquacious for a mysterious man. The dream sequence in episode 1 is one of the most beautifully shot pieces of footage I have ever seen.

I’ve never written a drama review before; I’ve never felt that I needed to write one this badly, but I think it’s time I start doing that.

This drama has been so wronged by the rating.

It never bored me; the plot so well written, well paced, characters are lovable, antagonists are understandable (so far), conflicts are realistic, and don’t get me started about YSY.

“I wish I wasn’t me” 저 제가 아니었음 젛겠어요 the line killed me.

OMG
i COULDN'T BEAR MORE
24 eps. was really my limit in watching this shit

Both sis were real pain in the***
The elder one naive till the limit of pulling your hair
She is creative in humiliating herself
Stupid and stubborn more than a mule
Her character soooo weak

And the younger were extremely totally literally Huge B*****
Full of grudge,envy and illogical

I can't feel any sympathy towards both

WOOOOOW really provoking

I only continue because of Xiao ming and inspite of that, i couldn't continue

i can just say it finished when she discovered that she had the same feelings for him
i wasn't curious at all for other characters

may be one day i can continue watching it, but no way soon one
