Cast
Overall the main cast, very outstanding.I liked the back ground music. The mansion looks like a castle. Will continue to see how the story ends. Thank you Thank you
Glad to see something new............after watching few episodes, realised that the lady detective role is totally useless in the show....??☹️?. Everyone has a story behind the story except her...going everywhere she likes, pointing the gun at anyone?..too unreal!!!!!!!
The live court looks like game show. The flogging stage looks like the squid game box.

inconsistent + poor writing
as expected from Ji Sung, his acting never disappoint, top notch. Kim Min Jeong is also amazing and showed the same level acting as Ji Sung. The interaction between their character really captivating. The concept of the story is actually intriguing with a good dose of mystery and suspense added in it. Unfortunately not executed very well by the writer. The writing of the character is inconsistent. Especially the character Ga On, who supposed to be a smart capable judge. Why the writer decide to write Ga On character as a fool? He is a judge, how can a judge make assumptions and bluntly believe a hearsay (from the crazy secretary that he doesn't even know well) without any evidence or thorough investigation? The writing is not intended to make a good story. Clearly the intention is to stir up as much emotion from the audience and make money. To me, it's watchable only because of Ji Sung & Kim Min Jeong acting. I'll just skip other scenesWas this review helpful to you?
Got me hooked straight away
This drama surprised me so much, I haven't really ventured into crime and legal kdramas and I initially started this since it looked interesting and I was looking forward to seeing Jinyoung act again after He Is Psychometric (which btw i also rlly recommend it was greaaatttt). And straight from the first episode, i was already invested in the storyline and the characters: each character has such a complex personality and nothing seems like how it's shown. You learn more about each character as the episodes progress and even though its only been 4 episodes, you can tell the drama has huge potential to hit big. The dynamic between Kang Yo Han and Kim Gaon is everchanging and leaves you wondering whether they will be friends or foes. One of the drama's catchphrases is "Is he an angel? Or a devil?" regarding Yo Han and the drama really does make you obsess on that question every episode and that's what I love about it. The OSTs honestly fit the mood so well and it just brings it all together. The acting so far has been top-notch and Jinyoung is doing an amazing job as Gaon so that's a yes from me lolIf you're hesitating to start this, i wld say to watch it its amazing

Can't wait for the next episode!!!
Well crafted episodes made to drop cliffhangers and leave us wanting more yet satisfying in the rollercoaster ride it takes us on when it comes to the story. The conflicting characters and chemistry between Jinyoung and Jisung is just... Wow. Can't wait.The female leads adding a dynamic alongside the mysterious backstory is definitely something to be noted. The good guy- bad guy combo wins us over for sure.
Also, can we please talk about the star cast? All of them shining like diamonds over the awesome plot... It's a dream come true and I wish to see more from our GOT7 Jinyoung.
The only complain: Why isn't the next episode up yettttt?!

Masterpiece
The story it self is so breathtaking, the actors and actresses are just perfect, I truly recomend it to anyone who is searching for something new in the k-drama world cause this one right here is really fresh and it wont let you down, I can garante that. The suspense it's out of this world the cast shows many faces around the episodes, and it's really incredible that we are just in the episode 3 there is so much left that I can't wait for it, I'm truly exited for the rest of the episodes, hope that this drama can have the recognition that it deserves.Was this review helpful to you?

Must watch
This is one of the best shows I've watched and will probably be one of my all time favorites.The story is amazing, gripping, witty and satisfying. There were times when the villains were too annoying but that's what they are there for.
The acting/production is flawless.
Jisung is SO. FREAKING. GOOD. And so very handsome.
Kang Yohan is such a complicated character, and even while I was watching I didn't know if he was good or bad or even sane, but he was all that and more. And Jisung nailed it. Bravo.
The only thing: I WISH K HADN'T DIED

all rounded , it makes you feel empty after completing !
the writers know what they're doing !this was "for me " a struggle between the good and the most benevolent in a manipulative world .
it starts as a Typical show off Korean style at first episode i mean what are the forces doing if civilians are going to shoot fire and save people could've been courageous in an other way dear writers or is for gaon to fall for yohan it must be at least this imaginary.
Some scenes are made in an artistic way Very beautifully "intentionally" you think you're looking at a master piece and it provokes something inside you that you might as well review your way of thinking the relationship between gaon an yohan is pretty and well written jisung is phenomenal but i wish side judges had more role in the rulings /verdicts i like how kim yohan is more calm and collected than the other Characters and how he is on a whole other level of cognition and perception of the world
On an other hand the music is superb
at the live court show the attire of the judges making yohan look Like a god and the side judges look like little devils beside him
those guys of social responsibility Never cease to make me feel sick such a Hippocratic punch they have succeeded their job .
my favorite scenes :
-when yohan was preparing for his first trial looking at his god like attire wearing the cross on his hand
-when gaon found out the truth about the con artist who caused his parents death wasn't even in prison with a shook face and the word morality was written in large font on the wall behind him (thanks translators) Very artistic ,
i would only re-watch this to catch those artistic details
-the yawning scene while gaon is looking
- all the family like scenes when they are each other comfort
the actress playing jung sun ah is such a queen
episode 15 ending was such a tearjerker
also did i say the music i shall repeat the music so many dramas lack this so fit for the emotions conveyed
definitely worth watching and re-watching !

At the start, it drops you right in the vacation trying to show who can be trusted and who can't giving us free lessons on life through Yo ha who I believe is a complex character from his unfortunate childhood.Go ra is my favourite whose innocence gets warped and twisted with his personality changing from meek and quiet to the one who is planning the elaborate schemes. Everyone uses him for their own purposes even the close friends who have so much memory
The detective is the one friend we all need in life who is independent and wants justice but cares about their close friendship
The middle part from ep 6 was boring with nothing happening and only stayed with it for the actor's sake. I cried with the amount of people who died either by covering up or couldn't continue with life.
This has illustrated don't trust anyone as you will be used like a toy

Intense drama
Without giving away too much of the plot;Ji Sung is THE Superstar Devil Judge, the lone revenger, who recruits a protege, to help him take out the elite, narcissistic villains who control the dystopian society of Korea. There was filler material and a ton of unnecessary flashbacks to clutter the viewers’ concentration. Editing Department went out of control.
Acting:
Ji Sung and Kim Min Jung showed their seniority and acting caliber. The other actors gave either basic or over the top performances. President Park must have escaped from the asylum for lunatics. Give that man a straight jacket.
Fashions:
Men’s fashions were on point, Women’s fashions were average (…Cha Kyung Hee) or outlandish (…Jung Sun Ah).
Story:
The plot was hindered by the flashbacks, flashbacking and choppy editing. Storyboard was all over the place. The church fire reveal was underwhelming. The writer should have pinned it on Jung Sun Ah instead.
Editing:
Too many repetitive flashbacks and choppy editing! Viewers cannot focus when they see past and present juggled in front of them.
Music:
Average
Conclusion:
Rushed, but gratifying
What I read into the final scene, is that Judge Kang has gone off the radar, to complete his revenging mission. Cue to Season 2.
