Not sure how I feel about this one. The core premise of this series is the tale of a judge who is, in fact, a reincarnated demon who has to judge (in her own hellishly violent way and condemn to hell) murderous wrongdoers. That said, where's the substance to this series, beyond this very basic premise? I'm not seeing it. I suspect too, the jarring transition from humour to actually pretty nasty violence, is there to compensate for this series lack of true substance. In short, I don't think it really works all that well. This is no black comedy, its a violent revenge fantasy/action series and little more. Upside's include decent acting but over the top characterisations and a tone that feels off, tend to hamstring, performances. In summary, a disappointingly shallow script that wants to be a black comedy but looks more like a violent revenge fantasy/action series, instead. In most respects a rather basic watch, with a old school, "eye for an eye" biblical message.

## The Judge from Hell (지옥에서 온 판사) ### Starring Park Shinhye (박신혜) ★★★★★★★★★★ **Justice served.** This is the type of show that you wish is longer because they acted well, the cinematography was awesome, and the editing was excellent. But at the same time, you'll realize that it was perfect because they planned it to be exactly as short as it is, they knew it won't be good if it was longer. ***Satisfying.***

At present, over 47% of the male population in Japan aged between 30 ~ 34 are single. While for women, the no. goes up to 60% for those in their late twenties. It is not that they are unable to get married. Rather, they all choose to remain single, as they believe that marriage is not the be all and end all. Life holds more promising things beyond marriage, and thus they are all celebrating life as a single. This drama takes a look at life from the perspectives of these men and women. Hoshino Mamoru is the President of a film production company, having taken over the position from his father. He is an excellent creative director, but he detests chaos and hence prefers to remain single. His brother, Susumu, works at the same company, taking care of the business side of things. Currently undergoing divorce proceedings, Susumu has had to move out of his marital home. Haruno Yuki is disillusioned with men, after having gone through several failed relationships. She wasn't making great strides in her career either, and so one day, she decided to quit her job and pursue her dream of becoming a scriptwriter. In order to pay the bills, she takes on a part-time job at a maid agency. Before she knows it, she gets her chance to make her dream come true! It could be Fate, or just plain coincidence, but the 3 of them are plunged into each other's lives; The "Affluent Single", the "Divorced Hero" and the "Marriage Refugee". Will a pivotal moment happen upon them? Will the "Affluent Single" decide to give wedded bliss a chance?
