'The Judge Returns' Oh Se-young reunited with her ex-husband Jisung.
Oh Se-young in the MBC Friday-Saturday drama 'The Judge Returns' (written by Kim Kwang-min, directed by Lee Jae-jin), which aired on the 9th and 10th, reunited with Jisung from the past and showed intense tension.
'The Judge Returns' is a justice-seeking time-rewind fantasy drama about Judge Lee Han-young (played by Jisung), who regained consciousness after an unjust death and returns to the past to judge the world, based on the web novel of the same name serialized in 2018. Oh Se-young plays Yoo Se-hee, the youngest daughter of Haenal Law Firm and Lee Han-young's ex-wife.
In that episode, a matchmaking scene between Lee Han-young and Yoo Se-hee, who returned to the past to live a second life, was portrayed. Yoo Se-hee, consumed with anger at Lee Han-young for deliberately arriving an hour late to make her wait longer, stormed out of her seat, and, after colliding with an employee while carrying water, demanded an enormous 12 million won for the cost of her clothes and behaved in an arrogant "gapjil" manner.
Then, as Yoo Se-hee was about to slap the employee, Lee Han-young stopped her, and a furious Yoo Se-hee, seeing red, slapped Lee Han-young saying, "How dare you make me wait?" However, Lee Han-young coolly countered, "Assault can be reported. If the youngest daughter of Haenal Law Firm sues a judge, she will become fodder for the media; are you sure about that?" and Yoo Se-hee, suppressing her anger, reluctantly bowed her head and apologized to the employee.
A scene also showed Yoo Se-hee's inferiority complex toward her older sister Yoo Ha-na (played by Baek Seung-hee). Twisted with resentment at Yoo Ha-na for taking the Nam-myeon-gu sinkhole case, Yoo Se-hee complained, "If she wins, how much more will she brag?" and, visiting their brother Yoo Jin-kwang (played by Heo Hyung-gyu), grumbled, "Are you just going to watch Yoo Ha-na act up?" revealing sharp jealousy.
In this way, Oh Se-young raised the drama's immersion by portraying Yoo Se-hee's complex emotions—anger, inferiority and anxiety—through delicate facial acting and steady breathing. She left a strong impression by simultaneously expressing the character's arrogance and inner emptiness within an unexaggerated emotional line.
The MBC Friday-Saturday drama 'The Judge Returns,' featuring Oh Se-young, airs every Friday and Saturday at 9:40 p.m.
