*Contains synopsis and spoilers. Yoo Seongje (BTOB)'s undefeated fantasy history was proven once again in SBS's "Ghost Palace."
SBS Fri-Sat TV series "Ghost Palace" is about a shaman named Yeori who refuses her fate as a medium and the giant snake Kang Cheol who is trapped in the body of her first love Yoon Gab.
It is a fantasy local story that unfolds when a man meets a demon who holds a grudge against his family. "Ghost Palace," which has been drawing attention as the only fantasy historical drama that SBS will be showing in 2025, has been in the spotlight for one week since its first broadcast.
It got off to a good start by maintaining the number one viewing rating among the TV series that aired between 2016 and 2019, and it broke its own record every week, hitting a peak of 11.4% in episode 9 and 10.7% nationwide, hitting the double-digit viewing mark.
The drama has surpassed the previous record and is now firmly established as the number one TV series in weekend viewership (according to Nielsen Korea). In this environment, Yuk Seong Jae (Kang Chul/Yoon Gap) is acting like a fish in water.
In the drama, Yuk Seong Jae plays Yoon Gab, the first love of Yeori (Kim Ji Yeon: WJSN Bona) who is possessed by the giant snake Kang Cheol.
He has been active in fantasy TV series such as "Goblin: The Lonely and Great God," "Golden Spoon," and "Ssanggab Street Food Bar," and is known as an "actor who specializes in possession."
Following his success in the TV series "Ghost Palace," Yuk Seong Jae's fantasy charm is fully in full bloom. In the beginning of the TV series, Yuk Seong Jae is trapped in a human body.
The drama has been well-received as it portrays the slapstick tale of the giant snake Kang Chul's adaptation to the human world with its unique comical charm. After that, Kang Chul's time living in Yoon Gab's body continues.
As the story progresses, he learns about a wide range of emotions within the order of the human world, and becomes more human as he forms relationships with a variety of people. Throughout, Yuk Seong Jae convincingly expresses his gradually expanding range of emotions.
There are also scenes that incorporate elements of fantasy action, such as a sudden lightning strike that creates a tornado to blow away the bad guys, and a sword swinging at a sinister vengeful spirit.
He was praised for his free and easy acting, and his acting was like a fish in water. Yuk Seong Jae's performance will give him further momentum in his romance with Kim Ji Yeon.
Yuk Seong Jae's performance, which expresses the pure love of the snake that began the first love of a thousand years with 100% purity, draws the audience in without any resistance. In particular, in EP10, Kang Chul takes charge of the seasons.
The scene where she uses her powers to make flowers bloom in front of Yori and give her the Flower Road, which blooms in an instant, was extremely thrilling, and drew a response from viewers such as, "From now on, my ideal type is a giant snake."
Thus, the popular drama "Ghost Palace" that continues to enjoy a storm of popularity thanks to Yuk Seong Jae's passionate performance has entered the second act and is gradually moving towards the climax.
The conclusion of the love story between the serpent, whose lifelong dream was to kill her, and the shrine maiden, who came to adore the serpent that took control of the body of her first love, and the bloody battle with the Yashakuki, who is trying to wipe out the royal family, are of interest.
In the process, attention is focused on what kind of passionate performance "fantasy genius" Yuk Seong Jae will show.
Meanwhile, SBS Fri-Sat TV Series "Ghost Palace" will air episode 11 on the 23rd (Friday) at 10pm.
