tvN's 'The Devil Judge' ratings continue to rise and maintains No. 1 viewership ratings

AKP STAFF

Since tvN's 'The Devil Judge's' debut with No. 1 viewership ratings on their first episode, its ratings for its third episode continue to soar as it hits a new high of 7.0%, from the 6.9% last week. 

The third episode aired on July 10 recorded an average of 5.5% viewer rating and peaked at 7% (according to Nielsen Korea). Among the key viewer demographic of those aged 20 to 49, it garnered a national average of 2.5% and a high of 3.2% viewership rating. In particular, it continues to rank first place for its time slot across all channels, including public broadcast networks.

Set in a dystopian present-day Korea, Head Trial Judge Kang Yo Han (portrayed by Ji Sung) is signaling the need for change. His courtroom is the subject of a reality show where he mercilessly punishes the guilty, earning him the nickname of "Devil Judge." As a divisive figure with an aura of mystery that belies his true identity and ambitions, the public is unsure whether he is a true hero or someone, knowingly sowing the seeds of discontent in his courtroom.

Meanwhile, ‘The Devil Judge’ airs every Saturday and Sunday at 9PM KST on tvN.

Many people says Korea has too many devil themes these days and they hate that. I am not much interested in recent devil theme dramas too but I have to tell you this: Ji sung and Jinyoung are both my favorite actors and their selected dramas are very different from a usual devil themed drama. Because I notice they have very similar wisdom and sense in selecting stories that touch people's hearts and very human through the analyis of multiple sides of devil characters. Kill me heal me is an example showing different sides of a human. He is psychometric is the same actually, in which Jinyoung plays opposite to his brother who is in reality is a devil-want-to-turn-good-but-not-possible. Believe me, these 2 actors suit the Devil judge for a reason!
