Devil, a mystery thriller involving crime and investigation, tackles a genre that is rarely covered in Korean dramas. It follows the popular trend of international hit dramas like CSI that feature elaborate production scale, fast-paced, tightly woven plots, and characters with unique professions. Departing from the usual, repetitive K-drama plots, Devil offers a refreshingly unique experience by introducing elements that challenge the viewers' psychology through suspense and mystery. Shin Min Ah displays maturity and growth in her performance as an absent-minded librarian with psychic abilities. In contrast to his character in Palace, Ju Ji Hoon plays a cold-blooded lawyer whose poker face hides his dual personality. Uhm Tae Woong's charisma shines brightly in his portrayal of a homicide detective who is tormented from the guilt of a crime he committed in the past. Scooped by So-net TV for broadcast in Japan, Devil has earned rave reviews from critics for its bold experimentation and high quality.
The story begins with a girl who witnesses in her own psychic visions the murder of a boy. Her accounts are quickly dismissed due to lack of evidence, but twelve years later the case resurfaces. Homicide detective Kang Oh Soo receives a mysterious letter containing a taro card that reads "judgement". The drama escalates as Oh Soo, now in charge of a case involving the murder of his father's attorney, discovers a matching taro card at the crime scene. When Oh Soo encounters the artist responsible for the pictures on those taro cards, he begins to unlock the puzzle surrounding yet another crime - one that hits much closer to home.
