Show is great. Totally bingeable. No dull moment.

much worse. no.

i dont watch non live action.

felt like the whole series is built only for Shibuya Nagisa

Yea, but they don't speak it as "JEN yao", Taiwanese speak it as "RRR". I have listen to what they say, they don't call him Jay-en or "Ye-n", but Rr-en Yao.

Feels like it could have worked as an epic TV series.

Popcorn movie. I had fun in the plane. It seems like people didnt like it because of source material? For someone not expose to the source material, I felt it's enjoyable?!

Lol I thought The Devil Judge has a sequel

No, the issue here is there is another police who is invested in the case. Somehow, it will come out.

It is also not gonna happen. Hui Su is bound to confessed; the writers build up to it, since Jin got involved. This, I think, made it a lot better for the series.

Facts:

(1) she has a facial surgery

(2) she needs to have a face

(3) her face is not Hsiao Tung

Whether or not, you know her "real real real face" or not, the only face that has been shown and portrayed is Chien Ting. That is UNDISPUTED, the director and writer made it a point to cast Alice Ko to be the face. So why insist that she is not carrying Chien Ting's face, given the 3 facts?

Her face after surgery is Tien Ching. In your previous you said she is not carrying Tien Ching's face (and only personality and blindness) which is wrong. So I dont know why you first dispute my comment and then later on agreed to my point. Im so confused.

No, she can't be carrying Hsiao Tung's face because she sliced up her face, remember? And the mom told the doctor to completely change her face.

If Hsiao Tung is still carrying her own real face, then everybody would have figured out she is Hsiao Tung (like the cafe scene, the old classmate who raped her would have recognize her), that makes zero sense.

And also if she was carrying Hsiao Tung's face then right from the beginning, as a documentarian, everybody know she is Hsiao Tung. Her real face is all over the internet, it will be stupid for her co-documentarian to not know that! Plus, the fact that everybody assumed she is dead (committed suicide), so if there's someone walking around with Hsiao Tung's face then why would they assume she is dead?

I think it was because it's LJS series, and I got used to him being in a high concept drama (which I thoroughly enjoyed), I haven't seen him in a slow down series so I was like okay, this is boring.

I guess it is more like Misaeng? I feel like this series may greatly connect with people in the same profession or trap in a corporate work world (I'm not lol).

I might give it a shot again probably in the future, if I want a slow down series.

Thanks for your insight!

Feels like a used trope. Pretty much they finally get to the helicopter scene, I knew what's going on.

What is this, an extended trailer? lol

Yea someone explained to me, I got it now. I got confused because what we see as audience was actually different from what the characters were seeing. So apparently, Hsiao Tung is carrying Tien Ching's face all along since the surgery, and the change in her face for the audience was purely to show difference in character/personality.

Am I the only one annoyed how they put it as "Jen Yao" when it's supposed to be Ren Yao, as spoken by actors in chinese and english?

to be fair, it's within her character. let's not forget that she was (or is) in love with Hsiao Tung. From the start, she does not really care about the ML (because why she should? he was a rival, he was not considered as friend). In the end, she chose to ally with him because of wanting to give Hsiao Tung justice. The writers even clearly showed the disparity and similarity of her and ML, she chose a different way of handling justice, I actually thought she was a good character included by writer.

Guilty people tend to deflect too. In the end, she did concede and blame herself (the scene where she had a convo with Hsiao Tung in the cafe and flashback). Both carried a different kind of guilt of not able to protect Hsiao Tung. Yun Chen desperately want to be Ren Yao, she blame her because it was him who is in there to help/rescue Hsiao Tung - not her.

Also side note: Yun Chen also doesn't know what Ren Yao went through. She doesn't really need to care about that. She is merely fixated with Hsiao Tung, just like Ren Yao.

However, as an audience, we see a much bigger picture. That's why it's hard to accept Yun Chen's POV, because we all are attached to Ren Yao, as supposed to be (he is the main character after all!)

I understand that it is about multiple personality. The whole thing on how Hsiao Tung become Tien Ching is reasonable, it was due to plastic surgery. But how did Hsiao Tung become Joy, that confused me. Wasn't Joy/Pin Yu a separate person? Did I miss something because Joy actually visited Hsiao Tung/Tien Ching in the hospital when she tried to commit suicide after the incident in the apartment?

Already on episode 3, the reporter/documentary angle hopefully pays off. I'm just annoyed the direction for the series has been jumpy.
