When he is tasked with finding the missing mistress of a military officer, he crosses paths with Yoon Chae Ok (played by Han So Hee), a skilled fighter specializing in finding missing people. Together with her father, she came to Gyeongseong to trace her lost mother.
After realizing their similar goal, Yoon Chae Ok and Jang Tae Sang join hands to set on a perilous expedition. Along the way, they come across a vicious monster born from human greed that makes them question everything they know so far about the world. This jolting horror-thriller comes with a dark twist, heartbreaks, and romance, all packed in together.

Upon its release, the first part of the series ranked atop Netflix Global Top TV Show list and additionally claimed the third spot on the Top 10 Non-English TV Shows category on the OTT platform. Although in South Korea it received a mixed response, Gyeongseong Creature garnered significant attraction overseas.
