Gyeongseong Creature will finally hit Netflix in a day, and the streamer has released its first episode preview. Fans are excited to see Park Seo-joon and Han So-hee together on the small screen for the first time. But before these two start to work together, the trailer shows the Itaewon Class star will be in danger as he gets abducted by what looks like an officer. You can see the preview below:
Gyeongseong Creature's first episode preview begins with Jang Tae-sang (Park Seo-joon) talking to Mrs. Na Wo (Kim Hae-sook) about a watch pawned at their pawnshop. “We don’t get Walthams often,” he said. After the two start arguing and conversing, a party begins for Tae-sang. He has been described as a man of means and an icon of a self-made man.
A group of girls hurry when they see him and even take a picture with him. “Nothing scares me. Nothing can stop me,” he says. “I’m the master of Golden Treasure and can get anything I want.” But amid the celebration, a man arrives to throw him a pail of water.
The scene then shifts to Tae-sang being tied to the chair, with the same man pouring him water. As he asks this guy what he wants from him, he shows him a picture of a woman who has been missing for a week. Tae-sang claims a case of a missing person is for the police to handle. But as this guy believes he’s Mr. Omniscient, he wants Tae-sang to do this job for him.

What is Gyeongseong Creature about?
Written by Kang Eun-kyung (Dr. Romantic, Kang Chi, The Beginning) and directed by Chung Dong-yoon (Hot Stove League), Gyeongseong Creature features a mix of historical drama and mystery. Set in early 1945, when Korea was still under Japanese colonial rule, it follows the story of Jang Tae-sang and Yoon Chae-ok (Han So-hee). These two young adults must face strange creatures born from greed to survive in Gyeongseong, now known as Seoul. However, it looks like there’s something far more dangerous than the monsters themselves.
