The first teaser trailer for Veterans was predominantly composed of scenes from the detectives' perspectives.
It showcased a sequence of action-packed moments, featuring Detective Jeon Jae-han and Detective Kang Chan-seong taking down criminals like gangsters and thugs in contrasting styles. Jeon Jae-han, a seasoned middle-aged detective, moved with precision and elegance, while the younger, zealous Kang Chan-seong executed flashy and chaotic moves to subdue offenders. The overall tone was more lighthearted and upbeat than heavy or intense.
Lee Ye-seo, the villain of the story, was briefly shown in only a few fleeting glimpses. Even in those moments, she appeared more like an ordinary corporate executive than the decadent, third-generation chaebol heiress she was rumored to be.
"Iâm sorry, but⦠is something wrong? Is there something on my face?"
"No, I was just wonderingâwhat does it feel like to be a cop? Iâm personally curious about a few things."
The scene where Detective Kang Chan-seong and Lee Ye-seo finally crossed paths portrayed her as nothing more than an innocent young woman.
"Wait⦠did I just get a confession?"
"Hmm⦠not quite the kind of confession youâre thinking of."
Even as Lee Ye-seo smiled faintly, it was hard to think of her as a villain. There was no hint of the extravagant, reckless aura often associated with chaebol heirs, nor did she exude an unsettling atmosphere.
However, when people connected to Lee Ye-seo started to disappear, and the teaser transitioned to an isolated house in the countryside, everything changed in the last ten seconds.@@novelbin@@
"Hey⦠Mister."
Gone was the subtle smile from before. Lee Ye-seoâs expression turned cold and emotionless as she looked downward. Gripping a small dagger beside her, she passed by the camera.
"Chills⦠this is insane."
"So youâre saying thatâs the same Kim Jung-hyun? Seriously?"
"The atmosphere is terrifying."
"Sheâs cutting through everyoneâliterally!"
"Why does she become a completely different person when she holds a knife? LOL."
"This is the first time someoneâs face has genuinely scared me."
Murmur murmur.
Whisper whisper.
"Hihi!"
"Welcome, Witch!"
"Letâs play Minecraft today!"
"Hida, did you know your house decor changed a little?"
"Donât tell her Diah did it, though."
"Uh, whatâs that lava in your hand for?"
"Whereâd you get a blindness potion?!"
"If that hits someone, itâs permanent, Hida!"
"Your housewarming gift is a bit extreme, donât you think?"
"Oh no, itâs war!!!"
"Invade the Spirit Kingdom! Letâs gooo!"
