An intriguing concept that never reaches its full potential

I was pleasantly surprised with the mythology this series created with Monos and Probes being commonplace in society. However, this concept never really develops any layers beyond the violence that some Monos exhibit towards their Probes. I would have loved for them to explore their relationship a lot more. There is a lot of potential for tension with their relationship. I could definitely Yeon Woo questioning his interest in Yoo Han as actual attraction to him as a person or to what Yoo Han gives to him as his Probe. But I guess that is the downfall of such a short series.

There are two things that stick out as loose threads for me. The story of Yeon Woo's missing mother and his Aunt looking for her, never really served a purpose and didn't go anywhere, so Iʻm not really sure what the point of that was plot point was. And then the reveal of Yoo Han's disorder seemed to come out of nowhere, I wasnʻt really alluded to anywhere prior, other than Yoo Han being interested in Yeon Woo's face and eyes. That was something that could have been explored more.

I did like the visual effects they did with the color, it was very clean and enhanced the scenes. Also combining that with the sound fx was very nice. The music, although repetitive, was also very calming and fit the scenes.

However, unless they expand on the story a bit, I donʻt think I would rewatch.
