LONDON, U.K. (7 December, 2022) – Following rave reviews at a public screening at Busan International Film Festival’s On Screen program, the highly anticipated Korean Original thriller “Connect” is now streaming all six episodes only on Disney+.
“Connect” stars Jung Haein as “Ha Dongsoo” - a new type of immortal human known as ‘Connect’, who is kidnapped by a gang of organ harvesters that are determined to take his eyes. After waking up on an operating table part way through the surgery, Dongsoo is able to escape with one eye remaining. He soon discovers that he can still see out of his missing eye, which is now being used by a serial killer who has been terrorizing the residents of Seoul. Determined to get back what was taken, Dongsoo will pursue the killer, taking whatever steps are necessary to make himself whole again.
“Connect” is directed by Miike Takashi (“Audition”, “Ichi the Killer,” “Gozu”) and also stars Ko Kyungpyo (“Reply 1988,” “Seoul Vibe,” “Chicago Typewriter”) as serial killer “Oh Jinseop,” and Kim Hyejun (“Kingdom,” “Inspector Koo,” “Matrimonial Chaos”) as the mysterious “Irang.”
