“Gyeongseong Creature” – Part 1 of Netflix’s Monster Filled Genre Series Arrives Later This Month

December 22 is shaping up to be a massive day for epic-sized genre releases on Netflix. In addition to Part 1 of Zack Snyder’s Rebel Moon, December 22 also marks the release date for Part 1 of K-drama thriller series “Gyeongseong Creature”.

The period set series will be split into two parts. Part 1 debuts on Netflix on December 22, with Part 2 following close behind on January 5. 2024.

Watch the official teaser below, which gives the briefest glimpses of a creature and declares “A goddess has been born!”

Naturally, it’s not the monsters that may threaten the survival of the protagonists in a series that blends historical drama with period horror.
