Set to deliver thrill and action, Gyeongseong Creature follows individuals going up against monstrous creatures that were born out of human greed. Set in the spring of 1945, in the city of Gyeongseong, the series is highly anticipated due to the sheer amount of talent tied to it.

“Gyeongseong Creature” Reveals Prelude Through Latest Poster and Trailer
The trailer grips audiences from the start, featuring Park Seo Jun in the role of Jang Tae-sang, a man ensnared in a web of mystery and darkness. Faced with the urgent task of locating the Commissioner’s missing lover before the cherry blossoms wither, Tae-sang joins forces with Yoon Chae-ok, portrayed by Han So Hee, and her father.
Together, they embark on a perilous mission to penetrate the enigmatic Ongseong Hospital. Their investigation propels them headfirst into a clash with the forces veiled behind the city’s opulent exterior.
Complementing the trailer, the main poster juxtaposes the beauty of a sunset sky and cherry blossoms with the foreboding silhouette of Ongseong Hospital, suggesting a chilling mystery at its core. The stellar cast, led by Park Seo-jun and Han So-hee, embodies a story brimming with tension and intrigue, promising to captivate viewers.
Director Chung Dong-yoon provides insights into the striking visual contrasts: “While Ongseong Hospital is a bastion of suspense and shadow, the House of Golden Treasure and Bonjeong district shimmer with life and color.” Park Seo-jun and Han So-hee add depth to the narrative with their perspectives: Park describes the series as a fusion of “tense creature elements and characters deeply rooted in the era’s stark realities,” while Han So-hee highlights the “rich diversity stemming from the blend of historical drama and creature genre.“
To unravel a story of fate, Gyeongseong Creature promises a unique blend of historical drama and suspense. The first part of the series will premiere on December 22 and the second part on January 5, exclusively on Netflix.
