New landmark or Waste of Tax? The sculpture from the 2006 hit movie "The Host"

The sculpture modeled after the monstrous creature from the 2006 hit movie "The Host" is being displayed at Seoul's Yeouido Han River Park.

The film, directed by Bong Joon-ho, features a monster created as a result of chemicals being dumped into the Han River. The hideous creature emerges from the water and terrorizes the city.

The sculpture is three meters tall and 10 meters high and weight is over five tons.
When you approach closer to statue, you can even hear the sound of monster.

This sculpture was created with the idea of Mayor of Seoul, Park Won-soon to make new landmark of the Han River and storytelling through Sculpture.

However, it can only look nasty and ugly to those who have not seen the movie and foreigners.
And the film was released eight years ago so people might rarely feel sympathy nor understand this statue.

Even though there's nothing wrong with making new landmark, many netizens who saw the news pointed out that their tax should be spent more carefully.
