Gyeongseong is the former name of Korea’s capital city Seoul, and the name used during Japanese colonial rule. The upcoming series invites audiences to 1945 Gyeongseong, the hotbed of turmoil caused by creatures that suddenly appear and wreak havoc on an already troubled world.
Park Seo-jun will play the role of Jang Tae-sang – the head of the merchant marketplace in Golden Jade House who is the wealthiest, most well-connected person in Gyeongseong. Tae-sang is someone who puts money before justice, but all that changes when he crosses paths with Yun Chae-ok while investigating a series of missing person cases.

Wi Ha-jun, who made a lasting impression with his role in Squid Game and is currently in Little Women, plays Gwon Jun-taek, Tae-sang’s best friend.
