Bael.

[breathing heavily]
Bael.
A lowly demon like you
has dared to summon me.
A lowly demon...
Venato.
A human is interfering with Justitia.
Please kill that man.
What is his name?
Han Daon.

EPISODE 10
Damn it. My knees hurt, you bastard!
[suspect pants heavily and yelps]
-[Munjae grunts] -[suspect groaning]
-[Munjae grunting] -[suspect groaning]
-I told you my knees hurt, you punk. -[suspect groaning]
[Munjae] No use in running away in this small county. Okay?
Be quiet, asshole!
[Munjae gasps weakly]
[gasping]
[breathing weakly]
[gasps]
We have a new transfer from another station.
I requested he be assigned to our team.
He should be here any moment. There he comes.
Hello, I'm Detective Jang Munjae.
Lieutenant Han Daon.
I've heard a lot about you.
Chin up.
Judge Kang tries over 200 cases a month.
Have all those 200 died?
My apologies.
[Munjae] Kang...
Banjjak?
No, that's not it.
Kang Bitna.
What kind of person is she?
She doesn't let the strong push her around or walk over the weak.
She may seem cold from a distance, but up close she's very warm.
She sounds very humane,
this Kang Bitna.
[Munjae] I saw you.
You deleted it on purpose.
You're an officer but destroyed evidence for her.
You must really like this Judge Kang Bitna.
[chuckles]
I'll keep this a secret for now.
If you do what I say.
[Daon] I'm sorry.
I made a mistake. I'll watch him, and if I can't--
If you can't? Will you kill him?
If I need to.
Give me his number.
What are you going to do?
He wants to meet me. I should.
[crows cawing]
[♪ suspenseful music playing]
[chuckles softly]
Nice to meet you.
I'm Detective Jang Munjae.
[♪ intense music playing]
The Judge from Hell
[Munjae] You like cola, I see.
And you like threats, I see.
It's a request.
If you want to use the video to question me, go ahead.
But you won't get anything.
My alibi for that day is perfect.
Do you like Detective Han Daon?
He seemed to like you.
What does that have to do with the case?
How much do you love him?
-Listen here... -Enough to give up everything?
-Including your life? -[chuckles]
Do whatever you want with that footage.
Except one thing.
Don't threaten Detective Han Daon with it again.
This is also a request.
[Munjae] You were right.
Han Daon knows everything.
And yet he's covering for her.
Then as Bael ordered,
please kill Han Daon.
Of course.
In the most painful...
and brutal way possible.
[chuckling]
[Judge Kang] On July 8, 2024, the defendant, Jeong Seonho,
drove under the influence of drugs and crashed his car
into a transformer in front of Hwangcheon Middle School.
This is not the defendant's first time using drugs.
And the incident occurred in a school zone.
Considering this, the punishment must be severe.
However, the defendant is deeply remorseful
and has repeatedly stated that he will not use drugs again.
Also, he's paid for all damages caused by the incident.
And there were no casualties in the accident.
These are mitigating circumstances in the defendant's favor.
Taking all of these points into consideration,
the court shall rule as follows.
The defendant, Jeong Seonho,
shall be sentenced to two years in prison and four years' probation.
COUNSEL, DEFENDANT
[people whispering]
-[keypad beeping] -[lock beeps]
Are you worried about something?
What? Me? Why do you ask?
You look off these days.
He always looks off.
That's true.
He's been released. Now you just have to hunt him down.
When will you kill him?
Should I go first this time too and make him unconscious?
This one's on hold for now.
What? Why?
He's serial killer J. And you saw him killing the police officer.
To be exact, not killing her but standing there before she died.
That means
he probably killed her.
No.
J has never killed with a gun before.
Then we should torture him to find out.
Even if it's not true, he's still a killer. So you can kill him.
There's nothing for you to lose.
In any case, I will be
-more cautious with this case. -[scoffs]
[Arong] Because the dead officer was close to Han Daon?
[chuckles nervously]
Is that why you want to be more certain?
It's not that.
Oh, right.
I'm saying this just in case.
Leave Han Daon alone.
Of course. Why wouldn't we?
[Judge Kang] Good, then.
[doorbell chimes]
[Mando] Gremory...
-Aren't you going with her? -Oh, right.
Moon Jeongjun, one. Bae Jayeong, two. Yang Seungbin, three.
Choi Wonjoong, one.
J, 13.
That's 20.
RETURN TO HELL
[Jaegeol] What will you do about Hwangcheon?
The landlady won't meet with me, so I'll approach her daughter.
This is taking longer than I thought.
[sighs]
I'm sorry. I'll move quickly.
Anyway, it seems something is going on with Judge Kang Bitna.
[man] Hey.
Hey! What the...
[Judge Kang] If you feel upset, sue me. I'm Judge Kang Bitna...
So? Are you going to help her again?
She helped with Seonho's case, so I should.
[sighs]
What exactly do you mean I should protect Han Daon?
[yells] Stop eating and tell me, damn it.
How you protect Han Daon, that's for you to figure out.
What's certain is, either you or Han Daon
will die.
Wait.
If I complete my mission and go back to Hell,
the Kang Bitna here will become a corpse.
Which means she dies and Han Daon lives.
Right? Is that it?
You are slow indeed.
Are all demons stupid like you?
Fine, I'm stupid.
If you know that, just tell me what to do.
[sighs]
Fine. Let's say I'm stupid.
If I go back to Hell, what happens to Han Daon?
Does he die?
-But why? He's innocent. -[Mija chuckles]
If you're curious, go back.
Damn it.
You little... Follow me out.
[yells] Follow me out! Now!
[customer] Excuse me. You should
watch your tone with your elders.
[scoffs]
Do you know me? Or this hag?
Mind your own business.
-Are you okay, ma'am? -[mock crying]
You should die when you're too old.
-[mock crying] Maybe I've lived too long. -[scoffs and laughs]
If you know that, just die. Die now!
That's enough.
Ma'am. Where's your home? Shall I take you there?
What a nice young man.
You will be blessed.
Can you just take me down to the first floor?
[scoffs] My, my. Look at that fake putting on a show.
Damn it.
[Mija mock crying] Goodness.
[Yeongjin reading] "It was found that Judge Kang,
who recently sparked controversy at a restaurant
for misconduct involving young men in their 20s,
is the same judge who handed down
an overly lenient sentence to Assemblyman Jeong Jaegeol's second son."
Judge Kang. Do you owe this reporter money or something?
Their last article was like this, too.
All the other reporters are quiet, but why just this one?
What a true reporter.
I'm on your side, Judge Kang.
Don't be. I don't want to be on the same side as you.
You know the men you humiliated in public have sued you, right?
-Yes. -But they withdrew.
And they promised to take down the video and comments. Do you know why?
Do I need to know?
Assemblyman Jeong gave them a lot of money
and took care of the situation.
Because he was grateful for your help on his son's case.
And?
With this article out there, we can't just ignore the situation.
Take a month off.
Wow.
So even if you take a stranger's phone and break it, all you get
is a one-month suspension?
Being a judge is the best.
But can I take a longer break?
-I have lots to do. -[Yeongjin] Get out.
Okay.
[sighs wearily]
-I'm suspended for a month. -[gasps]
-What? A month? -Yes.
I knew this day would come.
[Wongyeong] You must be upset.
-What will you do on your break? -I have important--
[Wongyeong] This is 18th Criminal Division.
Our judge is suspended. Do I have to come to work?
Oh, is that so?
All right.
She's gone.
Oh. We heard the news. That's terrible.
Don't pretend to feel bad for me.
Well, all right then.
Use this opportunity to really take a break.
Look into Seocho-dong offices when you have time.
Why? No one will want to hire her.
Goodness. I'm just too honest.
But no hard feelings, right?
Of course.
By the way, you two are always together. Are you dating?
[yells] I didn't become a judge to hear such nonsense!
What's wrong with me?
My mother thinks I look like DiCaprio in Titanic.
How insulting to DiCaprio.
Do you want to be sued?
What would I be sued for?
Defamation?
So, in sum,
Anyone who saw the killer was murdered.
Except for one 10-year-old child.
[reading] "And from each victim, he dismembered different body parts."
Wait.
He dismembered different body parts
-of each victim. Then... -Then what?
Satan.
[gasps] Why are we realizing this crucial thing now?
Satan? What do you mean?
Do you remember that story
-about Satan escaping Hell? -Yes.
[Judge Kang] Satan, the second-in-command of Hell, rose in revolt 26 years ago.
And he stole the Kylum, Lucifer's treasure, and fled to Earth.
Since then, Satan and the Kylum have disappeared.
I'm sure he's hiding in someone's body now.
But what does that have to do with J?
What she means is, in the human world,
even Satan must live in a human body.
But humans age and die.
And Satan would die with it.
But there is a way he can live forever.
He only needs two things.
[Judge Kang] Different body parts of good people.
And the Kylum.
I appreciate the detailed explanation,
but I can't really wrap my head around it.
[Mando] To put it simply, Satan may have
entered the body of serial killer J
and committed the murders.
Ah.
Let's meet the victims' families first.
Let's see if they forgave the criminal.
It's not too late to find out if he's Satan after that.
It's unlikely,
but if there is any of them who's forgiven him, what then?
Do you think you can forgive?
I guess I asked a silly question.
That's taking a while to heal.
It'll heal soon.
Do we know where Kang Bitna was right before the attack last December?
[Eunseop] Yes. She left the court at around 8 p.m. and got in a taxi.
In half an hour, she got off near the park where the incident occurred.
Then she was stabbed. But there were no witnesses or security footage?
Is there a chance that the attack
was somehow connected with Jeong Jaegeol's family?
We can't rule it out. The last person she contacted was Jeong Taegyu.
There's a reporter who frequently writes about Judge Kang.
What if we meet with them?
-Right. Make an appointment. -[Eunseop] Okay.
REPORTER JO ARAN
Why are you working so hard now?
And you don't use your headphones anymore.
-I want to become a great detective. -[chuckles]
Punk.
-[Daon sighs] -[door opens]
-Did you find anything? -Nothing yet.
[Hongcheol] I heard the restaurant by Haeseo River where Bae was found called.
-Anything on the security footage? -No, nothing.
[Hongcheol] Keep digging until you get something.
-[Daon] Yes. -[Eunseop and Munjae] Yes, sir.
[door opens and closes]
The night Judge Kang was caught going towards Haeseo River,
Bae Jayeong was killed.
This is very suspicious.
-What are you doing? -[screaming]
[exclaims] It works. [laughing]
I've always been curious.
About how evil humans can become
to get what they want.
Do you want me to show you?
This makes me even more curious.
I wonder what you'd be willing to do to protect that woman.
Stop messing around.
-Before I kill you. -[laughing]
A death threat from a detective.
I didn't upload this security footage anywhere else.
It's only here.
For 10 points,
how will you keep me quiet and take this from me?
Go.
If you find the answer, call me.
[♪ intense music playing]
[Judge Kang knocks at door]
Mr. Ha Yeongseok?
They didn't tell me the civil servant in charge would be replaced.
[Judge Kang] I'm here because I want to hear about your parents.
They passed away in 1998, correct?
Who the hell do you think you are to ask after my parents
who were stabbed to death decades ago?
I'm reinvestigating the serial killings of J.
Could I come in to speak with you?
[Yeongseok] About what?
About how much of a bastard I am who found their bodies
covered in maggots three days after they were stabbed to death?
I waited for the day that killer
would be punished for murdering my parents.
Or do you want to hear about how I became an alcoholic after the statutes expired?
Hearing you makes me think
you haven't forgiven him for killing your parents.
Forgive him?
[yelling] How dare you!
Do you think you could forgive?
Get lost!
REAL ESTATE AGENCY
[real estate agent] That poor man.
They had three sweet daughters.
But their mother was sick.
So the husband went down to another city to earn money.
That's when it happened.
Do you have his contact information?
Or do you know where he moved?
He's dead.
In May of 2014.
That's when the statute of limitations expired
for the killer who did that to his family.
He wrote on his prescription bag
that he could not forgive the killer, but he had no hope left to go on.
Then he didn't forgive...
[woman] Of course I can't.
But...
hasn't the state already forgiven him?
When we heard the statute of limitations expired,
we hugged each other and cried for a long time.
Saying the state deemed it was over, so we should forget...
and live our lives.
I'm sorry to tell you this when you're trying to reinvestigate,
but I don't have any hope that he'll be caught.
[man] But thank you very much
for not forgetting our daughter and mother, and us.
For still remembering.
[Judge Kang sighs]
Makes me angry the more I think about it.
Have a drink.
Gosh, that burns.
Why abolish the statute of limitations? Why not finish it?
Are killings before August 1, 2000 not crimes?
Damn it.
Why aren't you drinking cola today?
I saw on TV that when someone's sad, they drink alcohol at places like this.
So...
Applying ointment on me, did you see it on TV, too?
Yes. They do that a lot on TV.
You said, "We can't be doing this." Did you get that from a TV show too?
No. That's from me.
Stop teasing me.
[Daon] Thank you.
For being sad and upset...
along with me.
That's already a great comfort to me.
[phone vibrating]
[Jaehyeon] I have information on the deceased Detective Kim.
I will tell you in person.
[dog barking]
CONGRATULATIONS ON THE REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT
SERGEANT CLEANING
[Jaehyeon groans] Goodness.
-Give it. -Yes.
It was nice to be back home for a bit.
I didn't ask.
We should get going.
[Judge Kang] Good work. You can go.
[Jaehyeon] Gosh. I can't even walk. [coughs]
Such a crybaby.
Who is this person I have to meet? Why are we at a place like...
[chains clanking]
I don't think there's anyone here.
Sorry we're late, Paimon.
Paimon?
[♪ suspenseful music playing]
Paimon?
I heard you've done a great deed.
Me?
No, I don't think so.
Whatever I say,
just reply "yes."
Yes.
I'll be giving you an important task soon.
If you fail or betray me,
what you're imagining right now, it will happen to you.
Yes.
When will you kill Han Daon?
You saw for yourself. Why aren't you killing him?
[chuckles]
Be patient. I'm preparing something very interesting.
No matter what happens, Justitia can't get hurt.
Only Han Daon.
You are to kill only Han Daon.
[Bael] We must kill anyone who gets in our way.
Find out if what she says is true.
Then kill the human named Han Daon and send him to Hell.
If he's not a sinner,
I cannot kill him.
Then make him...
a sinner.
And Justitia...
[Bael] You can kill her.
That is if you, Paimon,
can beat her.
I will make sure it was worth summoning Bael.
Don't worry.
[chuckling]
Move. I'm late for work.
Why is Paimon here?
I just reported to Bael.
Paimon wasn't in my plan.
If you order a burger, of course it comes with fries.
Don't you know the history between Paimon and Justitia?
They've been enemies for 400 years.
They're rivals, both eyeing to succeed Bael.
I know that.
So I'm regretting it. But what's the use now?
Nothing will happen to Justitia.
He promised to leave after killing just Han Daon.
How can you believe a demon's promise?
Why did you have to report this and make it come to be such a mess?
Because he ruined Justitia.
Such a noble demon.
He corrupted her, turning her into a dirty human.
This is all because of Han Daon.
We just need him to die.
This is betrayal.
I'm going to tell Justitia.
[Arong] Then I will tell her that you go to church.
And I will also tell Bael that...
you're a Jesus-believing traitor.
-[breath trembling] -What I'm doing now
is not betrayal, it's loyalty. I've risked my life for the one I serve.
If you want it your way,
stake your life on it first.
[breath trembling]
[knock on door]
You're here. Please have a seat.
Congratulations on your pregnancy.
When are you due?
[Jueun] I know my mother turned it down again.
It's her choice whether to sell that villa to your company.
So please stop pestering me to persuade her.
With the compensation we can provide,
your child in your belly will lack nothing when they're born.
We can raise our child with the money my husband and I earn.
And I'm not interested in my mother's money.
Please don't call me again.
Do you know there's been a murder in that neighborhood recently?
Isn't it dangerous to leave your mother in that neighborhood alone?
NO TO REDEVELOPMENT OF HWANGCHEON-DONG!
[Myeongsuk] My daughter's coming today,
and I made some extra for you, too.
You didn't need to make all this for us.
You're family.
Are you excited to see your daughter?
Yes. I haven't seen her in so long.
[chuckles]
[doorbell ringing]
[Myeongsuk] Jueun. Come in.
-[Jeongim] I should get going. -[Myeongsuk] Okay.
-Bye, honey. -[Jeongim] Bye.
-No need to see me out. -[Myeongsuk] It's okay.
Bye.
Jueun, I made japchae.
It's your favorite.
[Jueun] Sign here.
What's this?
REDEVELOPMENT CONSENT FORM
The redevelopment consent form.
If you sign and leave, they'll give you a lot of money.
We can use half of it to pay back my housing loan.
And you can move in with us.
Well...
But I have to stay here.
-I have to meet someone. -[Jueun] Who?
Do you think Yechan is going to come see you as a ghost?
No, it's not like that.
How can a Christian believe in ghosts?
Listen to me and sign!
Can't you be a mom to me just once?
Stop it. If you shout, it's not good for the baby.
Don't pretend to be worried about me. You don't care about me.
You only ever cared about Yechan and church.
Even now.
No, it's not like that.
[crying] I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm tired of this.
I'm tired of you apologizing.
[Myeongsuk] Wait.
Jueun.
[crying] I'm sorry.
[sobbing softly]
[crying]
Be careful.
You almost hurt me.
[Jueun] I'm so sorry.
Thank you.

Get some bread with Jueun on the way to school.
There's food in the fridge. Make sure your sister eats dinner.
[Yechan] Okay.
-Mom. -[Myeongsuk] Yeah?
Let's talk later tonight.

Coming!
[customer 2] More soup over here.
-[customer 3] Can we have more anchovies? -Anchovies.
-[customer 3] Thank you. -[customer 1] Thank you.
[Myeongsuk] Wait a moment.
Gosh, I haven't seen you in a while.
I heard you bought a villa recently.
[Myeongsuk] Well...
[customer 4] You're a building owner now. Don't work so hard.
Gosh. I have to send both my kids to college.
-I still have a long way to go. -[phone ringing]
[customer 4] Come on.
Enjoy.
-[customer 4] Thanks. -[customer 5] Thank you.
Hello?
Yes, I'm Yechan's mother.

Myeongsuk, don't be so sad.
God must have called upon Yechan because there aren't enough angels in Heaven.
If it's because there aren't enough angels,
then your son should die now and go to Heaven, too.
How could you... [gasps]
Pastor.
Pastor... I have a question, Pastor.
Pastor.
Pastor!
Did I not give enough offerings?
Why did the Lord take my Yechan?
It's all part of His big plan--

My son...
He believed in God from the moment he was conceived in my belly. [crying]
But where was God when my Yechan was dying?

[Judge Kang] I don't know what you prayed for,
but it hasn't been answered for 20 years. That's...
Isn't this negligence?
Damn it.
I saw on the news. He's back.
I've waited here for 25 years to meet him.
I have to meet him.
Are you not leaving this villa because...
I'm waiting for him.
[Judge Kang] What for?
Isn't it better for trash like him to die quietly and alone?
No.
He can't die without me knowing.
I have to meet him. I have a question for him.
Only then will I get the closure I need.
Are you okay? You don't look so good since earlier.
I should be asking if you're okay.

[Daon] It was just a regular morning.

-Are you okay? -I'm not.
Why aren't you crying? Aren't you sad?
[crying] How can you be so calm?
If I cry, I'm scared I'll revert back to being the coward that I was.
[Judge Kang] You're so annoying, Han Daon.
You're the worst. [sniffles]
I looked.
Your family and Detective Kim
aren't in Hell.
They're all in Heaven.
Then I'll never see them again.
Because I'm going to Hell.
No, you're not going to Hell.
Now that I've heard all your stories...
I will find him and kill him.
[♪ rock music playing]
Will you really be fine going alone?
Don't act like you're worried.
[Mando] I'm sorry.
Don't be weird. Go.
I'm really sorry.
[Seonho] Hey, I'm glad you're here.
The customer service is terrible. This...
-[Judge Kang] Sit up straight. -[Seonho chuckles] What the...
You can't talk to me like that.
Did that sober you up?
Look who it is.
It's the judge.
Satan.
What... What?
You escaped from Hell 26 years ago and possessed a human body.
Now, you're serial killer J. The demon of all demons.
Gosh, this is crazy. A judge shows up out of nowhere
and talks shit. What are you...
Be honest.
You're Satan, right?
You're J, aren't you?
I don't know what you're saying.
[Seonho] What the...
I thought I'd softened a bit recently, but no.
Stop testing my patience and tell me the truth.
What are you?
I don't know anything.
I swear on my mother who's in Heaven.
I don't know what Satan is or who J is.
I don't know anything.
How am I supposed to believe a bastard like you?
Then keep thinking I'm Satan and kill me!
My life's ruined already anyways.
[Seonho groans and chuckles]
[Judge Kang] Do I need to feed you?
Ah.
What's with the face?
Has a pretty girl never nursed you before?
[crying] You're so annoying, Han Daon.
You're the worst.
This makes me even more curious.
I wonder what you'd be willing to do to protect that woman.
Detective Jang, I found the answer. Let's meet now.
[phone vibrating]
JUDGE KANG BITNA
You're calling late.
[Judge Kang] Help me.
Judge Kang, where are you?
[Mando in Judge Kang's voice] I'll text you the location.
Don't call the police and come alone.
Come quickly!
[automated voice] The phone you called is turned off. After the beep...
[Mando] Pastor, I'm...
I'm a liar, thief, and traitor.
I wonder what's the use in being forgiven.
I just realized today.
That this is the real me.
I'll just confidently go to Hell.
Thank you for everything, Pastor.
[♪ soft music playing]
[pastor] Mando.
The door to our church is always wide open.
Just close it.
An evil demon might come in.
[Arong] Did you ask for forgiveness for stealing a cell phone?
-I'm not going to church anymore. -Why not?
Did they kick you out for not donating enough?
-Stop. Our pastor's not like that. -[chuckles]
[Arong] "Our pastor"?
I bet even your pastor is vulnerable when it comes to money.
-I said stop. -Are you crazy?
Do you want to die? Do you think God's on your side now?
Is that why you're acting out?
No. God isn't on my side.
But going to church
made me realize one thing for sure.
What's that, Brother Mando?
That I'm a demon, too.
[Arong yells] You son of a bitch!
Damn it! I'm going to kill you!
-Not now though. -[Arong yelling]
My gosh! I thought I was having a heart attack!
Two hours! I have two hours left to save him! Two hours!
[banging on door]
Justitia!
Justitia? She's not here.
Oh, no. What do I do?
Detective!
He probably left. Of course he's not here.
I'm a fool!
[Mija] What's all this noise this late?
[Judge Kang] Let go. Damn it!
Are you crazy?
You...
[Mando] Justitia.
It was obvious we weren't going to be let in.
By the way, Justitia, I was so surprised.
She suddenly spread out her white wings and...
And I was like, "Oh, my God, you were an angel?"
He's a demon.
You're working with a demon.
I only
help the good and poor.
I've done my part. I'm leaving.
She only says her piece. So rude.
What the...
I'm sorry, Justitia.
What happened?
I'm a traitor.
I know. You're going to church.
How did you...
I heard your prayers. How could I not know?
If you knew, then why...
I was curious how far your treachery would go.
The end is a bit disappointing. But this was a great betrayal.
Remember that betrayal and lying are prerequisites for being a demon.
So keep it up.
Good job, get up.
Oh, right. Listen, Justitia.
-There's one more thing. -What?
Detective Han is in danger right now.
You need to hurry and change your clothes.
Kang Bitna.
Judge Kang!
[Munjae] Looking for Kang Bitna?
-How are you here? -[chuckling]
[Daon] What are you doing?
Where's Judge Kang?
[Munjae] I killed her.
[Daon] That's a lie.
Right. How did I kill a demon?
A demon can kill another demon.
[Munjae] Wow.
Are you going to kill me and go to Hell to see her?
You really liked her, didn't you?
-Die, asshole! -[chuckling maniacally]
-Die! -[Munjae mockingly exclaims]
[Munjae chuckling maniacally]
[Daon grunts] Die!
[groaning]
That's enough.
[♪ intense music playing]
[Daon groans]
[engine accelerates]
[both grunting]
[Daon groaning]
[grunting]
[groaning]
[Daon coughing]
[Daon grunting]
[groaning]
You can't beat Kang Bitna anyway. [chuckles]
[laughing maniacally]
[♪ suspenseful music playing]
[Munjae groans]
Han Daon.
Are you okay? You're still alive, right?
Worry about yourself!
Stay put.
[Daon] Kang Bitna.
[Munjae groans]
[Munjae groaning]
You haven't changed in 400 years.
Of course not.
Because I've endured the past 400 years trying to come up with ways...
to make you feel the exact pain I felt.
Han Daon is innocent.
You're right. He is.
That's why I'm killing him.
I want you to see an innocent person you love
die in front of you.
[Munjae grunting]
[both grunting]
[♪ intense music playing]
[Munjae groaning]
[grunting]
Be lost in nightmares.
[♪ suspenseful music playing]
[gasping]
[Judge Kang] Stop messing around.
I know you're not Han Daon.
Judge Kang. You love me.
Please die.
I'm begging you.
[yells] Die!
[Judge Kang gasping]
[breath trembling]
[both grunting]
[Judge Kang groaning]
[♪ intense music playing]
[Daon chuckles]
[whimpering]
[Daon] Kang Bitna!
[gasps]
[breathing heavily]
[Munjae grunts]
I can finally pay you back.
I won't go easy on you now.
[Munjae groaning]
[♪ intense music playing]
[groaning weakly]
[eerie whisper]
Han Daon.
[crying] Han Daon!
-Gosh, that hurts. -[Judge Kang sighs]
I told you not to come down!
[sighs]
[♪ soft music playing]
From now on,
rely on and trust only me.
I will protect you.
[chuckles and sniffles]
Let's go.
[both chuckle softly]
[Daon] No!
[Judge Kang gasps]
[♪ somber music playing]
The Judge from Hell
SPECIAL THANKS TO ACTOR CHOI DAE-HOON
[♪ music playing over end credits]
[laughing]
Han Daon is nothing.
Justitia will lose all her powers.
Father. Please let me marry your son.
[Mando] Are you out of your mind? You'll die.
Did you kill my son? Did you?
[man] Let go! Let go.
[sobbing]
[Judge Kang] What is this place?
[both grunting]
[Judge Kang] Did your mother die here?
Tell me who killed her.
She's lost her powers and is vulnerable.
Die!
You should have just died then.
[explosion]
