0

Mickey Mouse is going down a darker path. Disney+ Korea just dropped the trailer for Connect, directed by the iconic Japanese filmmaker Takashi Miike, known best for the 1999 horror film Audition – often considered one of the most disturbing films ever made.


The upcoming crime drama is adapted from a thrilling webtoon of the same name created by Shin Dae-Sung. The Connect trailer gives audiences a taste of a much darker tale than what they are used to from The Mouse – even beginning with a tense close up of vibrations moving blood droplets before delving into all the action. Connect tells the story of a man kidnapped by a gang of organ hunters that remove one of his eyes. With his missing eye transplanted into the body of a serial killer, the unwilling donor can still see and endures terrifying visions, making him a witness to the horrifying attacks on the residents of Seoul. As reported on first by Variety, the series, produced by Studio Dragon, will be made up of six-parts with 45 minutes per episode. Before being presented as Star Original on the Disney+ streaming platform in Korea, the show will play in Busan on Oct. 6-7.
