larus Posted September 30, 2021 Author Share Posted September 30, 2021 Watch: New OCN Drama “Chimaira” Previews Explosive Action And Terrifying Suspense In New Teaser Drama Preview Sep 30, 2021 by C. Hong OCN’s new drama “Chimaira” has released its first teaser! “Chimaira” is a mystery drama about a violent crimes detective named Jae Hwan (Park Hae Soo), a criminal profiler named Yoo Jin (Claudia Kim), and a surgeon named Joong Yeob (Lee Hee Joon) who come together for their own reasons to uncover the truth behind “Chimaira,” the serial killing case that recently restarted after 35 years. Key to the serial killings in the past and present are explosions, which feature heavily in the new teaser. Park Hae Soo observes a formal funeral before someone lights a car on fire, as someone in the background says, “An individual with not just one DNA, but two,” explaining the drama’s title and the serial killer’s nickname of “chimaera,” which in Greek mythology is a creature that combines multiple animals into one. The teaser continues with the dire warning, “The monster has awakened,” as Park Hae Soo takes a photo of a chimaera drawn on the wall and Claudia Kim reels from shock on the pavement. As more explosions ensue, the characters start to panic and demand to know who the “chimaera” is. There are several shots of a mysterious figure in a hat and a mask that haunts the other characters, possibly the titular “chimaera.” “Chimaira” premieres on October 30 and will be available on Viki. https://www.soompi.com/article/1491231wpp/watch-new-ocn-drama-chimaira-previews-explosive-action-and-terrifying-suspense-in-new-teaser Chimaira? **** September 30 2021 First teaser trailer for OCN drama “Chimera” First teaser trailer added for OCN drama series “Chimera” starring Park Hae-Soo, Lee Hee-Jun, Soo-Hyun.

larus Posted September 30, 2021 Author Share Posted September 30, 2021 Flames and explosions galore in OCN’s latest mystery-thriller Chimera by tineybeanie The first teaser for Chimera was just released, featuring Park Hae-soo (Squid Game), Soo-hyun (Claudia Kim) (Monster), and Lee Hee-joon (Mouse). The thriller-mystery drama is about serial killings that begin again after a 35-year hiatus. Park Hae-soo, Soo-hyun, and Lee Hee-joon play, respectively, a violent crimes police detective, a criminal behavioral profiler, and a surgeon. The three come together to pursue the truth behind the killings. The teaser opens with Park Hae-soo in formal police attire paying his respects to a deceased colleague. The voiceover explains a chimera: “A phenomenon where one individual contains two different DNA codes.” A car explodes in an act of arson, and onscreen copy reads: “The monster has awoken!” Soo-hyun examines clues on the ground, while in another cut, a man raises a glass to a mythological chimera spray-painted on a wall. We see a shadowy figure in a bucket hat, and then Kang Shin-il (Police University) screams into his phone: “Who are you?!” Woo Hyun (Racket Boys) laughs sinisterly in his police uniform, right before we cut to another car explosion. Onscreen copy asks: “Who is the chimera?” Someone reveals a painting with a tortured pope on a throne. Next, the shadowy figure in the bucket hat slowly lowers his mask, as someone in a car claims that he’s the real chimera. The next scene shows a fiery gang fight, as Lee Hee-joon looks at Park Hae-soo. Lee Hee-joon’s voiceover says, “You don’t believe me anyway,” and he yells at someone to shoot. Soo-hyun is strangled by an unknown person, another car explodes, and Lee Hee-joon looks distraught. The teaser ends with a man being shocked by a page of the Bible (opened to 2 Peter 3:10) being set aflame. Directed by Kim Do-hoon (The Moon That Embraces the Sun), OCN’s Saturday-Sunday drama Chimera will begin airing on October 30. https://www.dramabeans.com/2021/09/flames-and-explosions-galore-in-ocns-latest-mystery-thriller-chimera/ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larus Posted October 6, 2021 Author Share Posted October 6, 2021 The new teaser Spoiler **** Chimera's main trailer released... Park Hae-soo, Soo-hyeon, Lee Hee-jun 'Conflict Explosion' OCN's new Saturday and Sunday drama 'Chimaira' released the main trailer on the OCN official website and official SNS on the October 6th. In the released trailer, the purpose of the characters - the culprit, the case, and the truth - of the serial explosion and murder case is more clearly shown, and the doubts and conflicts of those who collide sharply make you sweat. 'Chimera' tells the truth of a serial explosion and murder case that started again after 35 years for a different purpose, called 'Chimera', by Jae-hwan (Park Hae-soo), profiler Yoo-jin (Soo-hyeon), and surgeon Joong-yeop (Lee Hee-joon) for a different purpose. It is a thriller that chases after a chain of explosions. Jung-yeop, who asks a meaningful question to Jae-hwan who came to visit him, “What kind of detective are you?” Then, Eugene rushes to somewhere and a mysterious person walks down a rainy alley wearing a raincoat, raising curiosity with unpredictable developments. https://www.fnnews.com/news/202110061151120167 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
