O Voto de Morte (2023)

Frustrating but good intake on jurisdiction system - Let's vote!

The beginning was really hard for me to watch, especially the main FL and her sister, who were so annoying. The same goes for the ML, as he always tried to catch the culprit he needed to bring to justice by law, but he knew very well the legal system was broken as he had fabricated evidence so many times. I found the way the teenagers were involved in the case absurd as well. Also, the drama did not catch my attention. I was about to drop the drama, but luckily it got better after four or five episodes, and I got hooked.

I liked the storyline concept of getting justice as there are so many loopholes within the law. The drama got better with each episode, and it was interesting to see who else was involved in vote-killing.

The ending leaves it open for a new season if there ever will be one.

Overall, the drama effectively portrays the idea of taking justice into one's own hands when the system fails and highlights the influence of money and power in manipulating the justice system.

It's good but could be better

LIKE

How the mastermind never forced anyone to participate in voting - there was always a choice to close the app and turned away

When Joo Hyun told Moo Chan she knew who was the real culprit behind killing vote

When Ji Hoon asked Seok Joo if he resented him for picking up Na Rae late

When Jin Soo told Ji Young his location before she instructed for a "XX" to happen

Kim Kwon was so good in portraying Lee Min Soo - when he was driving Seok Joo mad by imitating Na Rae (my god that scene I applauded!)

DISLIKE

The ending

MUSIC - personal fav

Blue - Aalia

REWATCH VALUE

Five for now

Need to write a review because one person misunderstood it and write bad review

This is from a webtoon with the same name published in 2016, it is not the same as the Devil Judge (2021) although the same voting thing.
1. The drama is mystery thriller, so the writer will give clues for each episodes, you must be alert and pick the clues.
2. Some watchers ignore the clues from episode 1 and missed the connection.
3. Every characters has connections even the simplest character.
4. Main complain I found (up to ep. 3):
-Why the FL was choose to investigate- she is related to the whole story
-Why use robot voice for the Gaetal? the voice need modulation to hide the real person
-Why the FL act like that? she has her history with the case
-Why the school students-also related to the case.
-Why the residents acted like that - It is like that in korea, people hate the police and their government decision with death penalties
Please wait before complaining and throw unrelated comments or review.

My disappointment

The killing vote and the whole thing is good but we can easily guess some characters role in this drama no one questioned heroin sister for being in the live with gaetal and the boy who killed jihoon is escape easily.. no one talk about that.. at some points there is no logic and there is no explanation why that doctor helped kwon and why the police office help to mix nicotine in Lee's drink and who is he or how they make him to help. and the people who helped to escape jihoon from Hyun how did they know jihoon is gaetel who texted them.. if you watch this drama just for thriller without expecting perfect logic this is good drama

An Interesting Watch

I was keeping up with this drama’s updates since it was announced. I kinda wanted to read the original Manhwa but then I thought otherwise because I didn’t want to spoil anything for myself.

The first half is interesting to say the least. There’s lots of characters, we see a bunch of side stories and the the cat and mouse game begins. But right after that it almost felt like they were just dragging the storyline a bit too much. The underage characters annoyed me so much to the point I went through the comments to check if anyone else was finding them annoying. Lo and Behold, some people did.

I really wanted to see character development for some characters especially Mu Chan. Man it hurts so much to see him being the way he is 😂 even in the end. If I were to say the ending just brings us back to square one then it wouldn’t be an understatement. We basically end up at a dead end. Unless they’re planning a s2, it was a very half assed ending in my opinion.

Coming back to the characters, Kim Mu Chan my boy you let me down. The FL was okayish. The professor’s character was good and my favourite has to be the teacher guy (don’t mind me I finished watching this like a month ago so I cannot remember their names)

I shipped the main protagonists 😂 and loved their banters in the beginning. When she goes to his house, how he experience a “nightmare”, when she picks up a gun and decides to shoot the villain guy. I really wished they had more moments together because in the later half they started acting like strangers. All that chemistry just for them to be estranged? tsk tsk

Now the plot. I hate how Korean cyber unit couldn’t trace the IP address for the life of them. The whole steaming thing was very unrealistic but I get it, it’s fiction. I let it slide but still it was just hard to swallow.

The character motivations often didn’t align with their personalities. I hate how they killed that ONE character in the end. It was so unnecessary. (unless they’re planning on playing a trick on us??)

Where’s the backstory for our protagonists?? Kim Mu Chan lost his mother but what happened next?? What’s the story behind the FL’s scar? Why do we never find any closure for their traumas? Maybe they’re planning all of that for S2. 🤷🏻‍♀️

But this Kdrama did bring me out of my Kdrama slump. I feel like 2023 was a bad year for crime-thriller genre. This was a good addition to it and a good way to end such a terrible year.

Is this a joke or something? Who writes such stupid scenarios???

Just three episodes. That was my threshold on watching a pile of impossible plot nonsenses!
Spoilers ahead.


This drama's plot is based on tbe following technically impossible scenario. A self proclaimed avenger of Judicial injustices sends via sms on each and every single Korean person's smartphone an Android app ( like this could be even possible, I mean to send a whole app via sms ) in order to use it and vote for or against the execution of an alleged criminal.
The app auto installs ifself lol... but strangely this doesn't bother or worry a good number of people whose smartphones were actually hacked.
Instead they use the auto installed app (a.k.a malware) in order to vote for or against the execution of the criminal instead of freaking out for such a massive hacking incident and call their mobile providers and the Digital Crime Police or whatever such department deals in S. Korea with such cases. Anyway they go on and use the malware to vote not worrying that this app might make their smartphones explode or something!!

The same type of poll is repeated after 15 days with no reactions whatsoever from anyone. The hacker "avenger" is streaming a video too through the malware app straight into the hacked devices asking their owners to vote again via their hacked phones.
Which they do because due to their obviously limited or non existent IQ don' t mind having installed in their phones an app that they never willingly installed themselves, and they don' t care either who hacked their phones, while also no one else is taking any action to prevent them from doing so, either by advising them to delete the auto installed malware app, or disconnect the hacked devices from the mobile network, or take action to shutdown the mobile network temporarily in order to prevent the vote of a second killing. Letting the public vote freely in self arranged referendums, from a malware app for an execution is not so serious as COVID after all! LOL LOL LOL...!
I assume that at the fifth episode (that I didn't bother to watch) the smartphone hacker avenger asks the public if they would like him to execute the S.K prime minister! They vote yes and then justice and democracy prevails!!

And that' s all. I can't bother writing something more about the complete and utter stupidity of this plot concept but I can' t bother either to watch the rest of this nonsense of a drama.

Who writes such stupid scenarios???!

أساس القصة مثير لكن تطبيقها مخيب للآمال

بالبداية ، فكرة القصة فعلًا مثيرة للإهتمام ، القصص الي يكون بطلها " مجرم " وفعليًا يطبق العدالة على المجرمين
دائمًا تكون مثيرة للإهتمام ، ولهذا السبب تحمست جدًا للعمل من قبل صدوره ، لكن عند صورة ومع الأسف بداية مخيبة جدًا

السرد القصصي ضحل ، وما تحس بخطر الموقف ، ( ردة فعل المواطنين ايضًا مستفزة ) ما تستشعر الواقعية وانت تتابع
أيضا بالنسبة للمحققة " جون هيون " الدور الخاص فيها بهالدراما وتمثيلها كان غير مُوفق بتاتًا ، ما عندي مشكلة شخصية مع الممثلة لكن الدور بحد ذاته

من الجوانب السلبية ايضًا ( استخدام مٌغير صوت للشرير ) الحركة مبتذلة ومكررة دائمًا ، لو حطو صوت معين او ع الاقل اوهمونا انه صوت ذكاء اصطناعي وبعدها ينكشف صوته الحقيقة لما تنكشف حقيقته بتكون ممتازة الحركة

بالنسبة للجوانب التقنية بالعمل ( مثل عندما تستخدم المحققة الحاسب او المحقق الآخر ) تشعر انهم يبذلون أي جهد ليظهروا لحكم انهم محترفين بزيادة مع ان الموضوع بسيط بزيادة ( فيه مبالغة )

على العموم بعد ثلاث حلقات حرفيًا فقدت اهتمامي بالقصة وما عندي ادنى رغبة اني اكمل او اعرف تكملة القصة
للأسف الشديد فكرة قصة ممتازة لكن تم إهدارها : (
