So far what I've gathered from the auto dubbed clips of Beyond Evil's Japanese adaptation: Kaibutsu

1. The 2 actors don't see it as "bromance" but characters whose long lives interact at certain points

2. Dongsik actor Yasuda Ken was flustered when Joowon actor complimented him (about being on time and remaining cheerful throughout long working hours?) (He even hugged him for it)

3. They began the press conference by Yasuda Ken 'apologising' for greeting everyone before he was asked to and I think Joowon actor was kinda teasing him for it later?

Will add more later (I didn't set it to auto dub. Didn't even know how to turn it off. Hopefully the translation was correct)

A person fighting a monster should be careful not to become one. When you gaze into the monster's heart, the monster also gazes into you.

Yasuda Ken and Mizukami Koshi will be appearing in the July issue of CUT Magazine. Japan really is promoting the show 🥹

Excerpt of their interview below. Screenshots have been translated by Google, so there may be errors. Please see the original Japanese article here.

You can also preorder the magazine here.

Diving into Yasuda Ken's and Mizukami Koshi's backgrounds really makes me think the casting for Kaibutsu is perfect this time around too.

One had been an aspiring musical / theatre actor who got his dreams cut short when their group was disbanded, but never gave up and through working several part time jobs finally got reunited with his group after several years.

The other had filed a lawsuit against his former agency to terminate his contract because he doesn't agree with the management anymore, even wordlessly moving out of his assigned dormitory in protest, and started using his real name instead of the stage name the company assigned to him.

That's Lee Dongsik and Han Joowon to the core.

Kaibutsu as the cover of WOWOW’s July Issue Magazine, as the featured drama for the month of July.

As someone who also follows Japan promos in general (as a Kpop fan too), this is quite a significant amount of promo Kaibutsu is getting. Japan really is looking forward to this show, wow.
