There is a major sense of deja vu when I look at anything related to upcoming MBC Mon-Tues drama Monster (Tyrant). Thankfully it’s not a negative emotion but some fondness for positives from the past. There’s leads Kang Ji Hwan and Sung Yuri working together for the third time after Hong Gil Dong and Runway Cop, both moderately successful projects in their resume so here’s hoping the third strike follows the same pattern. The posters and vibe for Monster immediately harken to the revenge K-dramas of yore with the dark background and broody vibe, be it East of Eden or Giant or Triangle or Nice Guy and many more such yarns. I think there is only so much the production team can do to package revenge melos so visually I tend to focus on the how the cast looks visually and chemistry-wise. This one continues to interest me, and it does’t hurt that male leads Kang Ji Hwan and Park Ki Woong are the da bomb as actors who immerse themselves into every role and always create a memorable performance.
New trailer for Monster:
why MBC can’t be a little creative? they’re to often to make this style of poster. East of Eden, Scandal, Goodbye Mr. Black have similar poster.
I notice Bolin Chen is wearing same shirt like Joong Ki was in DotS lol
Is this getting subbed anywhere? It doesn’t look like Dramafever or Viki is picking it up.
it will be fast subbed by VIU Singapore. Use hola or go to illegal streaming sites if you aren’t in Singapore.
Kang Ji Hwan, Chen Bolin and Park Ki Woong. What more could you ask for?
Chen Bolin??!!!! OMO
Also that sweatshirt he’s wearing must be really popular in SK. Joong Ki wore it on DOTs, Woo Bin wore it for some event, and now this.
It also was in Cheese in the Trap and Marriage Contract 😀
looking forward to bolin, that’s all 🙂
