The Story
In a post-apocolyptic world where society has fallen into chaos, a powerful judge with a personal agenda wins the hearts of the people. Touting the need for justice and reform, he introduces a new judicial system where the public is given the power to determine the outcome. The court room becomes a reality show where voting is done through an online app, with him choosing the cases and overseeing the process from inside their high tech court house. But his plans are jeopardized when a fellow judge begins to question his methods and motives. Will the two become mortal enemies or partners in crime?
Should I Watch
“The Devil Judge” is a dark, legal crime drama with an anti-hero who believes that the end always justifies the means. If you don’t enjoy heavier dramas where the hero lives in a constant state of moral gray, you should probably skip this one. The plot is full of political intrigue and government corrupiton, so be prepared for lots of tense meetings of powerful people devising evil, greedy plans to take advantage of the poor and powerless. But if you appreciate amazing acting, intriguing characters, and complex and thought-provoking storylines that wrestle with morality and social trends, this drama has plenty to offer. I give “The Devil Judge” a 9 out of 10 ramen.
