Communications across the continents have malfunctioned and it’s only a matter of minutes before the radiation obliterates the planet. South Korea’s dubiously named Bureau Administration struggles to get the series’ titular grid system (a shield created using artificially expanded magnetic fields) back online, as we watch two children, Sae-ha and Sae-byeok, grapple with the situation in real time. At the very last second, the grid system – by some stroke of luck – manages to get activated just before the flare gets a chance to wreak havoc.Grid Season 1 Download.
Grid then launches us 17 years into the future to October 31, 2021, where we reunite with a now-grown Sae-ha (portrayed by Seo), who stops by a convenience store in an unassuming neighbourhood in contemporary Seoul. Right off the bat, something about the store’s atmosphere feels off. An ominous, unfinished bowl of cup noodles sits idle by the bench at the storefront, and no cashier attends to Sae-ha’s calls for assistance until several attempts later, when a brooding, middle-aged man silently emerges from the storeroom.
When Sae-ha returns to his car, he sits and ponders for a while, glancing back to the storefront to find the cashier leaving the store, holding a can of beer. He places his hands on the steering wheel as he’s about to leave, but he notices a splotch of fresh blood on his fingers. He follows his gut and heads back to the now-empty convenience store for answers over the sheer bizarreness of the situation, and finds a dead body in the back.Grid’s abstrusities begin unfolding from there; Sae-he makes a police report and he meets the team of detectives assigned to the murder, among whom is an adult Sae-byeok (Kim Ah-joong), who is now stoic cop especially invested in nabbing the culprit.
