The first season was set in 1945, during the Japanese occupation of Seoul, then known as Gyeongseong. The Imperial Army’s biological experiments on human were not only cruel, they unleashed a monster creature.

The second season jumps to present day Seoul and follows Chae-ok (portrayed by Han So-hee) who encounters Ho-jae (Park Seo-jun), who bears an uncanny resemblance to the man she once knew in 1945.

It also introduces two key new characters. One is Seung-jo, a shadowy operative for Jeonseung Biotech – formerly the Ongseong Hospital in Season 1, who is portrayed by Bae Hyeon-seong (“Our Blues,” “Hospital Playlist”).

The other, portrayed by Lee Mu-saeng (“The Glory,” “The Silent Sea”) is a character who crafts a sinister plan in the labs of Jeonseung Biotech to recreate the experiments from 1945.
