Details about the upcoming Korean criminal thriller drama Connection were recently revealed by SBS. On May 24, SBS will air the criminal thriller starring Ji Sung and Jeon Mi Do.
An exciting journey filled with mystery, intrigue, and hidden secrets awaits you in Connection. A single death binds a group of individuals together and threatens to expose hidden truths inside the power and control structure.
Watching Detective Jang Jae Kyung’s journey through his struggles with drug addiction and managing his professional responsibilities is what Connection is all about. Oh Yun Jin, a social affairs reporter, and a former classmate of his, crosses his path and assists him in his quest to reveal hidden facts and sinister secrets.
Storyline
Tracing the murder of a high school friend who left behind 5 billion won in insurance money, the criminal investigation thriller Connection shows how twisted friendships are exposed.
In Connection, we follow the life of Jang Jae Kyung, a renowned and principled senior narcotics squad investigator. On the other hand, Jang Jae Kyung’s dark side stems from his strange abduction and subsequent forced addiction to an unknown drug. It is disheartening and ironic that his life is turned upside down by his drug addiction, especially because he is a narcotics investigator.
Oh Yun Jin, meanwhile, is a confident and expressive journalist for Anhyeon Economic Daily. Yun Jin and Jae Kyung were classmates in high school.
An odd alliance forms as these ex-classmates band together in the wake of the death of Jae Kyung’s old friend. Their reunion after 20 years apart is a result of their persistent determination to solve this case.
