Netflix has revealed a trailer for its hit Korean mystery series “Gyeongseong Creature” ahead of the upload of its second season on Sept. 27.
The first season was set in 1945, during the Japanese occupation of Seoul, then known as Gyeongseong. The Imperial Army’s biological experiments on human were not only cruel, they unleashed a monster creature.
The second season jumps to present day Seoul and follows Chae-ok (portrayed by Han So-hee) who encounters Ho-jae (Park Seo-jun), who bears an uncanny resemblance to the man she once knew in 1945.
It also introduces two key new characters. One is Seung-jo, a shadowy operative for Jeonseung Biotech – formerly the Ongseong Hospital in Season 1, who is portrayed by Bae Hyeon-seong.
The other, portrayed by Lee Mu-saeng is a character who crafts a sinister plan in the labs of Jeonseung Biotech to recreate the experiments from 1945.
The show is directed by Chung Dong-yoon from a script by Kang Eun-kyung.

The year’s only begun, and we’ve got a fantastic K-drama to scream about already. While Gyeongseong Creature retreads familiar territory when it comes to the plot and morals, it’s also a historical drama with an emotional impact on us viewers. As it is with K-dramas, we always get a little bit of it all: romance, thriller, family drama, comedy, sci-fi, fantasy—you name the genre, and chances are it’s included somehow. Gyeongseong Creature is one of those shows that you know, deep down, in the back of your mind, is going to end up sad in more than one way. It’s a historical drama, meaning war and death, of course. Yet, somehow, the end of this show will leave you more hopeful than you could’ve imagined. The show follows Tae-Sang, a self-made man who slowly learns that he can’t afford to be ignorant...

One could say Gyeongseong Creature is Korea’s answer to Stranger Things. While there are many similarities between the two sci-fi shows, they are, of course, based in different eras and play with our emotional heartstrings in unique ways. Gyeongseong Creature follows the owner of a pawnshop in Joseon-era Gyeongseong (present-day Seoul), a little bit before they got independence from the Japanese. The show follows Tae-Sang’s journey from a simple bystander to someone who cares for his people because of the atrocities he sees. It’s a simple story that poses the question, who is the real monster? As it goes with historical fiction, there will be deaths on both sides. So, while we wait patiently for the announcement of a second season, let’s look back at all the important characters that died in season 1.

Following the story of a wealthy man in 1945, Netflix’s Gyeongseong Creature is a period drama that combines history with horror and brings about an intriguing show that poses questions about humanity and the perils of survival in a monster-infested world. South Korea has been well known for making some incredible thrillers over the years, and Gyeongseong Creature does not disappoint on that front either. Although it’s a plot that is rather predictable, there are a lot of thrills to keep one occupied. The show is also set in Japan-occupied Korea, a dark time for the country, and does a decent job of representing the time period. Whether you’re looking for something historical or monstrous, this list will serve you well.
Sweet Home
The most obvious choice when it comes to a double feature with Gyeongseong Creature would be Sweet Home, the TV show about a virus that turns humans into monsters.

Gone are the days when K-dramas almost exclusively meant love stories, period pieces and family dramas. Today, South Korea produces some of the most chilling and outrageously violent TV shows you’ll ever see—while also continuing to release the more traditional, wholesome fare that longtime K-drama fans fell in love with years ago.
The diversification of genres in recent years can largely be attributed to the rise of global streaming platforms like Netflix and Disney+. In the past, most K-dramas were aired on broadcast TV, which comes with certain guidelines around what can and cannot be shown. By contrast, streamers aren’t bound by such rules around content.
The result? More extreme and graphic K-dramas, with Korean original series on Ott services like Netflix, often featuring plenty of gore and violence, and sometimes some sex and nudity as well. This year saw a host of Korean thrillers and horror series,...

Austin Butler in Apple TV+’s ‘Masters of the Air’
The 2023-2024 primetime television season looked nothing like previous years, with reruns, unscripted shows, and international imports populating broadcast networks’ lineups. The WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, though undeniably justified, took quite a toll on all the networks. Fortunately, the strikes have been settled, production has begun on nearly every new and returning series, and the midseason January lineup hints that things are slowly returning to normal.
Here’s a look at the shows scheduled to launch their new season – or series – premieres in January 2024. NBC’s Chicago shows – Chicago Fire, Med, and P.D. – will kick off new seasons on January 17th, with the Law & Order franchises returning on January 18th.

In Gyeongseong Creature, Chae-Ok and her father, Jung-Won, are sleuths from Manchuria in search of Chae-Ok’s mother. She’s been missing for 10 years after an experiment went horribly wrong in Manchuria, and she was taken away to Gyeongseong. Chae-Ok is in search of a man named Sachimoto, who once sketched her mother. This is when she asks Tae-Sang, the pawnshop owner, to help her find him. At first, they don’t quite get along because their lifestyles are so entirely different, but soon, they become fond of each other when they see how they’re both obsessed with keeping their word. Chae-Ok has faced a lot over the years, and her life’s mission has been to find her mother.

Gyeongseong Creature was one of the most highly anticipated Korean series of the year. The show, which stars Park Seo-Joon and Han Seo-Hee in lead roles, has garnered a lot of attention for its horror-thriller-drama plotline and leading couple. Although the overall messaging of the show is quite on the nose, it’s littered with many gripping subplots to keep us entertained. One of them is the story of the courtesan Myeong-Ja. The show is set in 1945, when Japan occupied Korea. Set in the capital city of Gyeongseong, the show follows Tae-Sang, one of the wealthiest men in the city, who is tasked by Police Commissioner Ishikawa to find Myeong-Ja, his concubine. She’s pregnant with his child, and he wants her back alive and well. If Tae-Sang is unable to find her, he loses all his assets, everything that made him the reliable man that everyone in Gyeongseong adores.

Gyeongseong Creature is the latest in the long list of Korean thrillers with monstrous creatures that all look somewhat alike with recycled plotlines that all end with the same philosophical question: “Who is the real monster?” Gyeongseong Creature in many ways feels like South Korea’s answer to Stranger Things. They’re both Netflix shows, so I suppose everyone wins. The show is set in 1945 Gyeongseong, present-day Seoul, and follows Jang Tae-Sang, a rich and popular man, who goes on a dangerous journey when Commissioner Ishikawa demands he find a missing woman for him. Tae-Sang soon gets involved with a young woman named Chae-Ok, who is an expert at searching for missing people, dead or alive. He entrusts her and her father with helping him find Myeong-Ja in order to save his business and livelihood.

Gyeongseong Creature is based on the act of barbarity by the Japanese on their Korean subjects during the era of colonization. The obsession with the creature created is evidently going to doom the Japanese soldiers in the long run. Colonialism is the indelible ink that has etched the horrors of abject hatred of people towards others based on their nationality. We would not even think twice before creating something monstrous to harm our enemies, but do we really think of its consequences? The third episode of Gyeongseong Creature is about answering a lot of questions that we have in our minds. Why did the Japanese create the monster? Was it a manifestation of their hatred towards the colonized people? Let’s find out!

The dystopian world that has been portrayed in Gyeongseong Creature, can be compared to the one in the other Korean series, Sweet Home. The experiments had given rise to a dangerous monster that was causing the deaths of many people.

There are several secrets that are to be revealed in the second episode, regarding the real identity of Sachimoto and the revelation of the secrets behind Chae-Ok’s mother’s disappearance. Will Chae-Ok be able to find her mother and Myeong-Ja? Will Tae-sang be able to find Sachimoto’s secret for helping out Chae-ok? Let’s find out!

"A goddess has been born!" Netflix has revealed a teaser trailer for a Korean mystery thriller series titled GyeongSeong Creature, which will be split into two parts for its debut for streaming later this year. The series is set in Gyeongseong (which is the old name for Seoul) in 1945. In Seoul's grim era under colonial rule, an entrepreneur and a sleuth fight for survival and face a monster born out of human greed. During Japanese rule over Korea, two young adults confront a strange creature and battle against it for survival. It's a very vague description and the trailer doesn't really give away much either, except that this hospital had humans and creature(s). Starring Park Seo-jun and Han So-hee, with Claudia Kim (from Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald), Kim Hae-sook, Cho Han-cheul, & Wi Ha-jun (from Squid Game). Gyeongseong Creature Part 1 debuts at the end of December, with Part...

For its first-ever upfronts presentation, Netflix took a page out of broadcast networks’ traditional playbook and boasted about not just what series it has launching in the coming months, or even through the end of the year, but specifically calling out its fall 2023 slate.
A staple of upfronts week — though not as much lately, first because of the Covid-19 pandemic and now because of the writers strike — has been the unveiling of ABC, NBC, CBS and Fox’s fall lineups. This was done so advertisers knew what they were buying ads against and therefore what demos and audience size it would be most likely to reach by promoting products during those programs.
For Netflix, which doesn’t follow the September-to-May season that broadcast still lives by but now has an ad-supported tier it needs to supply with commercials, to take this approach is potentially a move for the streamer to...
