The highly anticipated series, which blends elements of law, romance, and fantasy, is set to premiere this September, and the teaser offers a chilling glimpse into its otherworldly narrative.
The teaser, released on August 23, introduces viewers to a world of darkness and despair. The narrator ominously declares that anyone who enters this realm must relinquish all hope.

The Judge From Hell stars Park Shin Hye alongside Kim Jae Young, Kim In Kwon, and Kim Hye Hwa, among others. The drama features a unique storyline centered around an elite judge who, beneath her cold exterior, is a demon tasked with sentencing those who fail to reflect on their actions to hell. Her seemingly warm and friendly demeanor hides a complex character grappling with significant internal pain.
With 14 episodes lined up, the show will air new episodes every Friday and Saturday at 10 pm KST (6:30 pm IST). Directed by Park Jin Pyo, known for films such as Brave Citizen, Love Forecast, and Closer to Heaven, this marks his debut in the K-drama landscape. The screenplay is penned by Jo Yi Soo.
