Yo Han was successful in taking care of the high society trash, planned his death and became the villain. According to his plan, Ga On became the “Light” (hero) that the people deserved.

Ga On presents his version of the truth, but the old fogies are least interested. In a surprising moment, Kang Yo Han whispers into a distracted Ga On and tells him to do well. To make sure the Devil Judge has to never come back. Ga On comes back to his senses and chases after Yo Han and sees him from a distance.
The way The Devil Judge ended, it kept a possibility of a new season in the future. Certainly, this chapter is closed, but the way the society is going, who knows the Devil Judge might be back. Ji Sung really breathed life into the character of Kang Yo Han, the necessary evil of the show.
