#GyeongseongCreature

 #GyeongseongCreature signing off 

Yung mahirap na nga ispell, pinaiyak ka pa 😭😂

📌Set in the Spring of 1945, in Gyeongseong (old name for Seoul), during Japanese rule over Korea, two young adults confront a strange creature born of greed, and battle against it for survival.

Ever since the Netflix announcement came out last 2022, Jeomjus were anticipating PSJ’s comeback to the small screen, with the highly-acclaimed #ItaewonClass as his last drama series. Three movies – #Dream, #ConcreteUtopia, #TheMarvels (his Hollywood debut) and three reality shows – #InTheSoopFriendcation, #YouthMT (or #YoungActorsRetreat) and #JinnysKitchen in between, yet we couldn’t get enough of our dear Oppa.

As in my initial review, the drama boasts of a powerhouse cast, as in stellar! If you are not a regular K-drama viewer, you might not be able to recognize some of them owing to the effects and make-up, but when you do visit the Cast list, you would say, Ahhhh oo nga, siya nga yun!

When I first learned that PSJ would be paired with #HanSoHee, mixed emotions eh.

Me pag nakikita si Han So Hee sa Instagram, Giordano ads, awards shows or celebrity premiere events, sa Seven MV ni JungKook: “Parang maarte.”

Also me pag napapanuod siya (My Name): “Ang galing niya.”

In fairness, sinusubaybayan ko naman sya LOL. I cannot imagine Chae-ok not played by her. May angas, matapang, medyo hindi pa-girlie girlie tweetums ang dating. Yung credible sa action / fight scenes. 

The same way PSJ fits Jang Tae Sang to a T! Thing about PSJ, kahit san siya panuorin, may take charge aura talaga ang Oppa, yung lider na susundin at pakikinggan mo, savior, ganern. Kahit pa sa Wooga Squad. Pag sinabi niyang siya ang bahala, mananalig ka talaga.

Yung cast, sobrang bow ako. 

• Soo Hyun aka Claudia Lim (Chimera, Monster)

• Kim Hae-Sook (I just watched Strong Girl Namsoon, dami na nya raket agad)

• Park Ji-Hwan (Our Blues)

• Ahn Ji-Ho (All of Us Are Dead)

• Jo Han-Chul (Reborn Rich, Hometown Cha Cha Cha, Vincenzo)

• Wi Ha-Joon (Worst of Evil, Little Women)

• Ok Ja-Yeon - sa wakas, nakita rin kita sa mabait na role (Big Mouth, Queenmaker, The Uncanny Counter)

• Choi Young-Joon (Our Blues, Vincenzo)

• Hyun Bong-Sik (Destined with You)

• Woo Ji-Hyun (All of Us Are Dead)

• Kim Yoon-Woo - pinaiyak mo ko ng sobra (My Dearest), see photos below

• Lim Chul-Soo (Crash Landing on You, Vincenzo)

• Ji-Woo (The First Responders)

• Kang Mal-Geum (Divorce Attorney Shin, The Red Sleeve)

• Kim Do-Hyun (Reborn Rich, Tracer)

Watch out for violent and bloody scenes (pero kung ok ka naman sa Moving, Vigilante, Worst of Evil, and zombie series, ok ka na rin dito hahaha). Yung premise na pag may war, kung ano-anong naiisip ng mga tao as weapons para sila ang magrule ng world, eto yun, yung mga experiments ganern. But actually, yung monster or yung creature, yung tao rin yun eh, ika nga Humans are the real monsters. 

And siyempre, ang tissue, wag kalimutan! 

Because of this, umangat sa Oppa ranking ko uli si PSJ (actually, kinakalimutan ko na siya pilit bilang may “girlfriend” na). Pero may “gratuitous scene”, jusko ang abs  ni PSJ!!! Please refer to photos below 🤩🤩🤩 And yung sense of humor nya, evident, may mga funny scenes kasi.

Can’t wait for Season 2. Watch the post-credits scenes closely (akala ko BTS yung concert dun, pero sabi ng Blinks, pink ocean daw yun. See photo below. Okaaayyyyyy). I am not sure if S2 will explain some loose ends.

Parts 1 and 2 are streaming in @Netflix

OST | Time by Baek A / FOREVER by Suho
