Park Shin Hye, the star judge from The Judge from Hell, has teased fans with thrilling moments ahead in the show!
According to Nielsen Korea, the 11th episode of the SBS drama The Judge from Hell, which aired on October 25, achieved impressive ratings.
The episode got 12.6% nationwide and peaked at 14.4%, making it the top program in its time slot and the highest-rated show of the week. It also ranked first among all channels in the 2049 demographic ratings with 4.5%. This episode broke the record for the highest viewership on a Friday for The Judge from Hell, raising hopes for even more exciting episodes in the final three installments.
In this episode, Park Shin Hye’s character, Kang Bit-na, possessed by a demon, took big risks to find out the identity of the serial killer J and Satan, leading her to a crucial clue. The 60-minute episode built up anticipation, especially with Kang Bit-na shouting, "I am the worst of the worst demons!"
Previously, Kang Bit-na battled another demon named Paimon, played by Jang Hyung-sah and Choi Dae-hoon. Just when she thought she had defeated him, Paimon returned, trying to kill Han Da-on (played by Kim Jae-young). Tension rose as Han Da-on risked his life to save her. Luckily, Lee Ah-rong (played by Kim Ah-young) appeared just in time to push Paimon away.
Eventually, Kang Bit-na managed to defeat Paimon. However, for breaking a demon's rule, she lost all her powers to Bael (played by Shin Sung-rok), the second-in-command of Hell. Despite this setback, she continued to seek the true identity of Jung Seon-ho (played by Choi Dong-goo), who is suspected to be the serial killer J and Satan. Her search led her to a shocking discovery at the Jung family's home, where she found body parts of the victims collected by the serial killer J.
After being startled, Kang Bit-na tried to escape but was ambushed by Jung Seon-ho. Without her powers, she struggled against him. During this confrontation, she learned the truth about the human Kang Bit-na, who had ended her engagement after discovering Jung Tae-kyu had harmed Seon-ho's mother, only to be killed by Jung Seon-ho. He taunted her, saying, "I wish you had died back then." Just then, Han Da-on arrived to save her, allowing Kang Bit-na to escape while Jung Seon-ho fled with something valuable.
Kang Bit-na figured out that Jung Seon-ho wasn't the serial killer J or Satan, but she suspected that Jung Jae-gul or Jung Tae-kyu could be. She then asked Bael to restore her powers. In the next scene, back to full strength, Kang Bit-na confronted Jung Seon-ho, swinging a baseball bat and repeating, "I wish you had died back then." The episode ended with an exciting blast as she and some demons set fire to a car, presumably carrying Jung Seon-ho’s body.
The preview for the next episode hints at even more chaos, with Han Da-on clashing fiercely with Jung Tae-kyu, a new figure that looks like Satan appearing, and Kang Bit-na smiling wickedly while declaring, "I am the worst of the worst demons."
As the story races toward its thrilling climax, fans are eagerly waiting to see what happens next!
