More teasers for alien drama "Circle"

[keytfelt.livejournal.com]

Kim Kang Woo and Yeo Jin Goo star in the sci-fi mystery drama Circle: Two Connected Worlds, which is divided into two parts: Part 1 is set in 2017 and Part 2 is set in 2037.

In Part 1: Beta Project, Yeo Jin Goo plays college student Kim Woo-jin. Kim Woo-jin is the top student at Handam Science and Technology University, but the sudden involvement of his twin brother in a murder case leads him to use all his smarts to figure out the strange events connected to his brother, and the subsequent unsolved homicides of 2017. That investigation will connect him to Gong Seung Yeon, who is also looking for answers after her best friend’s suicide.

In Part 2: Brave New World, Korea is Elysium-esque as it is divided into two areas: a smart district without crime, illness, or unhappiness; and a general district with various crimes and diseases. Kim Kang Woo acts as Kim Joon-hyuk, a veteran detective in the general district. He will pursue a case based in 2037, but they will really be after the same truth.

The next teaser hints more heavily at the truth Yeo Jin Goo denied in the first teaser: the possibility of an alien infiltration. Ahn Woo Yeon asks his twin brother: “Isn’t it strange? Why are normal students suddenly dying for no reason?” A sequence of chase scenes are shown as Ahn finally confesses that an alien disappeared right in front of his eyes.

In 2037, Kim Kang Woo and Lee Ki Kwang investigate a cadaver with “No. 1” inscribed on the forehead. A deep voice scoffs at the idea of crime on Smart Earth, but Kim Kang Woo is furious at Smart Earth’s deception when they claim that it is their district’s 5000th day free of crime. A girl’s voice on a recording says that a mysterious “they” have returned, and in each timeline Kim Kang Woo and Yeo Jin Goo race for answers.

Circle premieres May 22.

I'm really looking forward to this drama. I'm still mildly confused about the plot and how it will tie together, but I like the leads and it looks great.

This seems super interesting to me, even if i don't know all the details yet, plus i really like the cast.
It also comes out on my bday, can't wait tbh!

(Random af question, is the phone Jin Goo uses, (at ~ the 00:04 mark), the Samsung Galaxy S8 , or is it a different model?)
