Actor Park Geon Il had viewers on the edge of their seats.
On the 24th, the MBC Friday-Saturday drama The Judge Returns depicted the story of Kwak Sun-won (played by Park Geon Il), who shows an unknown relationship with Kang Shin-jin (played by Park Hee-soon). Earlier, Kwak Sun-won bound Chu Yong-jin (played by Lee Jang-won) and confronted Lee Han-young (played by Jisung).
In the midst of this, Kwak Sun-won was puzzled when Lee Han-young referred to him as his enemy. Also, as their fight continued in a tangled back-and-forth, Kwak Sun-won suddenly swung a knife and lunged at Lee Han-young, chilling viewers.
In addition, after losing Chu Yong-jin because of Lee Han-young's interference, Kwak Sun-won informed Kang Shin-jin of the situation. Moreover, Kwak Sun-won's facets—unable to resist Kang Shin-jin's ruthless violence yet showing loyalty—made their backstory even more intriguing.
Meanwhile, after disposing of assemblyman Kang Jung-tae (played by Kim Jinho), Kwak Sun-won tightened the noose on prosecutor Park Cheol-woo (played by Hwang Hee), who entered the darkened office. Kwak Sun-won's sudden grabbing of Park Cheol-woo's neck and pressing him instantly made viewers hold their breath.
In this way, Park Geon Il excelled as a tension maker, captivating home audiences every episode. He controlled the show's tension and infused vitality, and his unrestrained action and chilling aura drew viewers in throughout.
Furthermore, his performance, which brought out the unemotional character trait as if feeling neither pain nor sorrow, heightened the thrills of the thriller. Thus, Park Geon Il fully absorbed his role, enriching the work and confirming his irreplaceable presence.
Meanwhile, the MBC Friday-Saturday drama The Judge Returns, featuring Park Geon Il, airs every Friday and Saturday at 9:50 p.m.
