À vue d'œil

I didn't know this series was produced by Disney, I knew about it after watching it. Well, it makes so much more sense.

Connect is not a bad series. I haven't read the webtoon, but I guess there's more to it than just 6 episodes.

Disney is used to make few episodes series, I don"t know why. But compared to the usual Korean series than have 12-18 episodes, this one feels really rushed and underdevelopped. There's very little things that made sense and the plot, after a strong pilot, got lost in a chaotic writting and screenplay.

Also, I don't understand why you would get Miike (who I find totally overated) to direct it, there are so many great Korean directors.... Even without knowing that Disney was involved, watching Connect, it really felt like it was made out for an Occidental audience, just like Squid game for instance (and it's all but good...).

Please Korea, don't sell your soul and your style to Occidental people and to companies which have absolutely no respect for the series nor the audience.

The start wasn't that bad, bit rushed but ok. There's wierd police investigation, some facts getting from video records but the crucial ones are being ignored. Even more strange situation is with gang and the writer. At the begging you can overlook this but later you'll get frustrated.....

Bit strange is also the whole killer situation, he's going around unseen with complicated "statues", preparing sofisticated traps in public areas, seems to have much more time than anyone around and see everything. On the other hand he doesn't leave a single clue or trace - either by witness or recording from public cam. Getting from the roof is another story.

I watched this series hoping to get the feel of "Ajin" or "The Strain". I however got an emotional drama about art and horoscope.

The main character did not really develop, nor did it make sense how he keeps becoming dramatic with each event.

The main Villan is not even hard to track, everything he needs to get the information has always been there, but he did not utilize them. Eg: Read some lips, lookup some names...

For a tv series, I would say that the CGI is not bad, but the sound effect would suit, if he is another creature disguising as a human. It almost went full on "Marvel Venom"/ "Species", with a touch of "Kill bill's blood spilling".

The actors did good, I am impressed, but the way the story is told, forces the audience to think that the general IQ of the people in this movie is actually lower than average.

If you are here for some action, this series, has no real action, if you are looking for some story about the strong struggling, here you are.

Most importantly, the Woke-culture here is not as heavy as the west.

I binged watched the entire Connect series with 6 episodes in 1 sitting.

Director Takashi Miike did a great job. The acting is perfection most specially Jung Hae In. He acted so well considering this is his first time doing CGI work.

The visual effects and cinematography are also well done. It is a must watch.

I especially like how they used music to interweave each storyline. It is a welcome enhancement to the webtoon. Jung Hae In's voice is so soothing that I end up contantly listening to it in spotify.

I just wish that they will have Season 2 very soon as episode 6 is such a cliffhanger.

This a psychological mystery thriller based on webtoon.

Started great, intrigued me.

But after that writer forgot to develop the story. So dissatisfied me at the end.

Main character Dong-soo is very bland. Doesn't uplift the story.

Antagonist is good but there isn't any mystery remain because it revealed initially itself.

Female lead has good character with shades. It would have more fun, if she was the main character in the series.

Cinematography is good, set the mood perfectly. CGI is okay.

Gory element is good.

There are many plot holes n outlandish things in the series. Not a typical kdrama.

Series end with a cliffhanger, might come back with another season.
