“Gyeongseong Creature” Part 2 ending review
Well… that was something. I mean the ending leaves me even more confused but not in a good way. Why the time jump? does it mean there is now people who have a part of the virus inside them like monsters in disguise?
I mean, if it had ended without that final scene featuring a Park Seo Joon from a different time, I would have understood, but this leaves me even more frustrated than I already was with the 1st part ending.
The rollout for “Gyeongseong Creature” has been unnecessarily complicated and prolonged. With Koreans, specifically reviewers, slamming the series for many valid reasons, Netflix seems confused by it too.
I definitely think it would have had a bigger impact if part 1 was released in its entirety, and not like this. Besides being frustrated by the drama’s production, writing and CGI, I am equally, if not more, frustrated with how Netflix is handling this series.
