À vue d'œil

While the story sounds extremely intriguing, something about the execution of this show didn't work out for me. After a couple episodes, it was sometimes a drag to keep watching. It's not a bad show at all, but it definitely did not leave me longing for more. It's good quality but of the recent K-Dramas I've watched, this one is certainly the weakest.

That's all I wanted to say, but I have to stretch it out a little more since the required characters are not filled yet. I am glad this show was made, as it has quite a few nice touches and unique elements. I do not regret watching it, neither would I easily recommend it.

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.

It's worth watching this series for two things. Firstly the special effects and unusual powers are fascinating and different - he can heal and won't die but isn't extra strong. Secondly the usually sweet Jung Hae In in such a horror sci fi setting does a great job. Can feel his pain. The villain played by Go Kyung Pyo is quite effective as well. There are a few faults. The violence could have been toned down - it's a bit sickening. Secondly it's not over yet. When is Season 2? Thirdly it actually seems rushed in that some connecting explanatory scenes seem to be lacking. This is one of the few series that should have been longer. I felt I had to guess what happend sometimes. But at least it wasn't draggy.

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.
