Judge vs. Judge (Season 1)

Judge vs. Judge (이판사판, 2017) is a Korean legal drama you can watch online on iFILM, led by Park Eun-bin as a judge whose faith in due process runs into the hardest possible test when that same process convicts her brother for crimes he didn't commit.

So I-Hyeon is methodical, principled, and by the book. Her brother's sentence — rape and murder — was handed down with the help of people whose reach extends into the courthouse itself. Proving it from inside the institution she works for is exactly as difficult as it sounds. Her assigned partner Lee Jun-ju (Yeon Woo-jin) reads the law differently, and that friction between them runs through every episode, not just the romance.

Directed by Lee Kwan-Yeong, the series earns its 16+ rating less through violence than through the sustained discomfort of watching institutional justice fail in slow motion. Stream Judge vs. Judge online on iFILM.
