Juvenile Justice (Korean: 소년 심판) is a 2022 South Korean legal drama television series that premiered on Netflix on February 25, 2022.[1][2] Written by Kim Min-seok and directed by Hong Jong-chan, it stars Kim Hye-soo, Kim Mu-yeol, and Lee Sung-min. Juvenile Justice tells the story of a judge who is known for her dislike of juveniles and gets appointed as judge of a juvenile court. The court-room drama sends a message of how society is also responsible for juveniles' acts.[citation needed]

Reception

[edit]

Audience response

[edit]

For two weeks in a row, from February 28 to March 6, and March 7 to March 13, Juvenile Justice garnered 45.93 million and 25.94 million viewing hours, respectively, and was Number 1 in Netflix's "Global Top 10" weekly list of the most-watched non-English television shows.[31][32][33][34]

Critical response

[edit]

Joel Keller of Decider reviewing the series wrote, "Juvenile Justice is about as close to an American-style procedural as Netflix or Korean TV gets. We hope we get a little more backstory on the main character, but the cases might just be compelling enough to keep our interest."[35]

Pierce Conran of the South China Morning Post gave 3 stars out of 5 and wrote, "A grounded actors showcase that explores juvenile delinquency in a tightly woven frame of jurisprudence which occasionally shifts into a very melodramatic gear."[36]
