SBS-TV's Friday-Saturday drama 'The Judge From Hell' has hit its highest ratings yet. The drama aired its 5th episode on the 4th. According to Nielsen Korea, this episode recorded a nationwide rating of 9.3%, ranking first among Friday-Saturday dramas. The highest momentary rating soared to 13.1%.

The episode boasted a roller-coaster plot. The intense confrontation and relationship shifts between the demon Kang Bitna (played by Park Shin-hye) and the human Han Daon (played by Kim Jae-young) unfolded continuously for 60 minutes. A new case also emerged.

First, a subtle love line between Kang Bitna and Han Daon was depicted. However, they never let go of their suspicion and vigilance towards each other, revealing a tense atmosphere. The relationship dynamics between the main characters exploded.

Detective Han Daon suspected that Kang Bitna was connected to a series of murder cases involving criminals. As he lingered around her and pursued her, he realized Kang Bitna was a dangerous demon.

The new case heightened the tension. It involved a criminal who killed his wife, son, and daughter with his own hands. He claimed amnesia and multiple personalities, switching between a brutal persona and a childlike persona, leading to confusion in the investigation.

Kang Bitna, as always, set out to punish the criminal. She headed to the hospital where the criminal was confined. Just as she pulled out a dagger towards Yang Seung-bin, Han Daon suddenly grabbed Kang Bitna's ankle from under the bed, marking the episode's ending.

The 6th episode of 'The Judge From Hell' airs at 10 PM this day.
