VAGABOND is a new series on Netflix. The action thriller series is from South Korea (org. title Baegabondeu) which is enough to catch our attention. Unfortunately, this isn’t anywhere near the level we’re used to! Read our Vagabond review here and check out the series on Netflix now!

Vagabond is a new series on Netflix in the action-thriller genre. The production is South Korean (org. title Baegabondeu) and this is always a huge plus in our book. We tend to adore both movies and series from South Korea and Netflix has a rather large collection of them already.

When it comes to Vagabond, we’re dealing with a very different kind of production. It’s a TV production and it shows in all the worst ways; Stereotypical characters and plot development worthy of a soap opera. But, unfortunately, without any of the kitsch elements that could make it oddly entertaining.

Not what I expected from a South Korean production

I had no way of setting my expectations appropriately for this Vagabond series on Netflix. I’ve watched a lot of movies from South Korea and I absolute adore them. Later, I’ve also watched South Korean TV series on Netflix such as Kingdom and Mr. Sunshine.

Unfortunately, I cannot in any way compare those impressive productions to this one. It would be like comparing a Lifetime movie of the week with an HBO movie production. Or even just one of those really well-made Netflix movies that impress and surprise.

The Vagabond series has a plot that feels like something from a 1990s TV series made in the US. And while the plot is just one part of a TV show, the pacing and character development is very much off as well. Basically, I couldn’t really find anything I liked.

However, I do recognize that the production quality is still at a high level and I feel confident that Vagabondwill find a big audience on Netflix. I’m just not part of this audience.

The cast of Vagabond

To most, the cast of Vagabond probably won’t be very familiar. That includes us here at Heaven of Horror despite loving both movies and series from South Korea. The reason is probably to be found in the fact that the cast of Vagabond consists mostly of actors that have performed in TV series that aired on national television. Not on major streaming platforms.

However, the two stars Lee Seung-Gi and Bae Suzy may still be familiar to some. Especially the latter for fans of K-pop. Bae Suzy is a former member of the K-pop group “Miss A”. Both have acted in quite a lot of TV series. In fact, they were both on Gu Family Book from 2013, so they’re already veteran TV actors in South Korea.

Whether you know any of the actors before watching Vagabond or not, is irrelevant anyway. What matters is how they do in this production and I have nothing to say either way about that. Basically, both the plot and character development are too slow and predictable to keep me interested.

The director of Vagabond is Yu In-sik who is certainly no stranger to directing TV series. In fact, this is the ninth TV series for Yu In-sik and in terms of quality and style, it shows that we’re dealing with a very experienced director.

Two screenwriters are attached to the TV series; Jang Young-Cheol and Jung Kyung-Soon. The two previously worked together on both the Incarnation of Money and Empress Ki series which aired in 2013-2014.

In South Korea, Vagabond (with the original title Baegabondeu) will air on good ol’ “flow TV” on Fridays and Saturdays. For Netflix viewers in the US (as well as my native Denmark and most other countries), it will air one episode at the time as well on those same days.

If you like movies from South Korea, then you should check out this new Netflix series with very low expectations. The production quality is good (as you would expect), but the storyline and characters are nowhere near the level of the South Korean productions we’ve become accustomed to.

Still, Vagabond is a series that should appeal to a rather big audience on Netflix, so hopefully it will be yet another hit for South Korean producers. For me, watching the first episodes was more than enough.

Episode 1 of Vagabond is available on Netflix from September 20, 2019. The next episode will be released the day after while you’ll have to wait for episode 3 and 4 to air the following weekend.

Vagabond (French: Sans toit ni loi, 'with neither shelter nor law') is a 1985 French drama film directed by Agnès Varda, featuring Sandrine Bonnaire. It tells the story of a young woman, a vagabond, who wanders through the Languedoc-Roussillon wine country one winter. The film was the 36th highest-grossing film of the year with a total of 1,080,143 admissions in France.[2]

Plot[edit]

The film begins with the contorted body of a young woman lying in a ditch, covered in frost. From this image, an unseen interviewer (Varda) puts the camera on the last men to see her and the one who found her. The action then flashes back to the woman, Mona (Sandrine Bonnaire), walking along the roadside, hiding from the police and trying to get a ride. Along her journey she takes up with other vagabonds as well as a Tunisian vineyard worker, a family of goat farmers, an agronomy professor, and a maid who envies what she perceives to be Mona's beautiful and passionate lifestyle. Mona explains to one of her temporary companions that at one time she was a secretary in Paris but became unsettled with the way she was living, choosing instead to wander the country, free from any responsibility. Her condition worsens until she finally falls where we first encounter her—in a ditch, frozen.

Critical reception[edit]

The movie was acclaimed by critics. Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes reports that 100% of 20 critics gave the film a positive review, for an average rating of 8.8/10.[3]

Style[edit]

The film combines straightforward narrative scenes, in which we see Mona living her life, with pseudo-documentary sequences in which people who knew Mona turn to the camera and say what they remember about her. Significant events are sometimes left unshown, so that the viewer must piece information together to gain a full picture.

Vagabond was filmed in the departments of Gard, Hérault and Bouches-du-Rhône.[4]

The title[edit]

Role

The original French title, Sans toit ni loi ('With neither shelter nor law'), is a play on a common French idiom, 'Sans foi ni loi', meaning 'With neither faith nor law'. It also puns on sans toi ('without you').
