La creatura di Gyeongseong

Very enyojable and fun to watch but it didn't quite reach the expectations i set for it. Part 1 absolutely slayed i couldn't wait for part 2, but as much as i liked it, it felt a little dragged, like the contents from part 1 were just repeating themselves and then came the ending, that personally, doesn't make sense to me. The character development scenes felt overshadowed by the constant action scenes. Overall the show is really well made with incredilbe cast. There is potential for season .I recommend it as a watch, i'd just wished there were more laid back moments where we got to see the characters relationships grow.

Great suspense and good storyline with a historical background. The drama has some of my favourite actors in it; Han So-hee from 'My Name', Park Seo-joon who never fails to make me smile hence bringing a bit of lightness to the drama, Kim Hae-sook showing her motherly love and Wi Ha-joon from 'Squid game, Little Women and The Worst of Evil always with an air of quiet confidence that makes him very attractive! Although it all adds to the suspense I personally don't like gore and monster-like creatures but the drama does say 'horror' as part of its genres. I got round that by fast forwarding those parts .... Pretty much like I did for Game Of Thrones which is a universal hit! I'm on Episode 4 and I am still pretty much intrigued enough to keep watching.

I was really looking forward to this drama and I was not disappointed.

CGI & Effects, sceneries, sets costumes, etc..in this drama were made with quality.

I usually don't enjoy watching these period dramas about war because it is very depressing and heartbreaking to see the capacity of the brutality and cruelty of men (the japanese really caused havoc and irreparable damage to Korea).

But in this case and although there's a few very real and powerful scenes where emotions take over, thanks to the supernatural elements of the beasts and the very unique and quirky personality of Park Seo Joon's character and his romantic storyline, the darkness is somehow compensated and it works wonders.

It has been a very long time since we watched Park Seo Joon in a drama, and I missed him. I truly enjoy his acting. He has the capability of taking this character ( Jang Tae Sang) and transform, he showed us an infatuated man with all his awkwardness and clumsiness but also a man tired and in agony for what life has put him through, and you can feel all his pain, anger, frustration and then determination to keep fighting to keep surviving hell.

Han Soo Hee was fantastic too, I am used to her kicking ass with her roles and this wasn't less. She had great chemistry with Park Seo Joon and the dramatic scenes were very painful to watch. Truly amazing actress.

Rest of the cast was remarkable and I cant wait to see the second part of this. Specially Wi Ha Joon, which had a small role so far but I am anticipating he will play a much bigger part in the upcoming episodes.

Overall, amazing drama, very entertaining and well made. Go watch it!

I won't say that the series is perfect. The story has a good set up and the actors are all good. It did make me curious and I was emotional at times, empathyzing with the plight of war victims. Iam looking forward to the next season very much. However the making has I think, many flaws such as lack of detail in some characters especially like that of Wi Ha Jun's, protecting the leads with plot armours many times so that we end up thinking that's absurd, no way that's possible or that it could have been shot differently. Expected acting wise,more from both the lead actors in the first episode but I think their acting got better as the story progressed. A show that has been hyped for so long will be obviously critiqued in detail. It's interesting -both the premise and the characters but making could have been way way better.

Finished the part2 and I seriously think they could have made this an awesome show if they had invested more into the writing. Well it turned out to be an average experience for me. Do watch and find out.

I started watching this with the expectation of a thriller series about fighting a monster. But what I got is much bigger and meaningful than that. The greater monster in this series is not the said "creature", but the people who created it. This is a story about the oppressed and the oppressor. A story about survival in the darkest time of history. You won't find "Stranger Things" type of monsters in this series, but you will find a story about humanity, with a great cinematography, settings, and quality acting. It might be slow paced at first, but please continue the ride, and you will be mesmerized.
