Sang Woo figured out what the game was based on the info he collected and chose not to tell the rest of his alliance . He intentionally tried screwing them over
Rather than intending to screw then over, he was more thinking if he needed them to even succeed, because in his eyes he's smart enough without them to win.
"Information You Don't Need to Know". Dalgona is a food that was popular with children in Korea. Most people born in the mid-1990s or earlier have memories of eating dalgona as a child. Melt sugar with heat, add some edible baking soda, and stir to complete. It was both a delicious snack and a popular entertainment because it was possible to win prizes by taking dalgona with metal frames of various shapes and completely separating the given shape with a needle. Prizes were mainly sugar-based dragons, fish, and flowers. (In Korea, this sugar food as a product is called "yeot.") There may be some mistakes because I wrote it down using a translator. I only know Korean.
Triangle is a million percent better than circle, if you see how honeycombs are formed you would be nervous af getting a circle LOL. It breaks so unevenly
For Ali just cuz it’s a kids game doesn’t make it easy especially when you’re from a different country/culture the rules can be a bit confusing to know it just a few minutes when your life’s on the line.
Also his dialogue you can tell he’s still learning the language wish means he sometimes can misinterpret something by mistake, that can cost him his life
@@anuph.3806 I don’t think it’s that reason. Because there have been PLENTY of shows with even more hype and success than squid game that they still only did 1 episode a week reactions to.
I prefer the cc though. Like during episode 2 the pickpocket threatened thst guy and said "ill rip your fucking throat out" and that sounds more badass than regular English version "I'll cut your throat"
@8:40 Sang-Woo was getting annoyed at Ji-Hun because he was mentioning how they used to cook things on their briquette stove when they were younger which was what he was doing in the previous episode when he was trying to commit suicide
I just thought of the perfect way to do this. You guys should have some people pop balloons at random intervals behind the other people that are trying to cut out the shapes to simulate the gunshots. Then see how many pass.
It’s worth mentioning, you guys might be using the closed caption subtitles which are said to be more inaccurate than the regular English translation subtitles. So if there’s still episodes you haven’t covered it might be good to switch the subtitles
I used to get one of these honeycombs after school just outside the gate of the school. It was about a dollar and if you can get the shape out, you win a prize like a lazer pointer, markers, notepads, just cheap stuff. The one outside my school had a Christmas tree shape, and yes it is extremely difficult.
@@SadisticCultures It honestly makes more sense for them to upload the episodes quickly. The show is extremely hyped right now. I would do the same if I was them. If they upload it weekly the shows hype will be gone by the time they finish it.

I am hyped to see their reaction to episode 4. So intense. I mean, all of these are crazy intense, but still. This game was crazy, but it just gets crazier!
I remember playing a similar game in middle school except that we used corn bread and the teachers assigned the shapes. The activity was part of a school festival were classes were awarded points to earn perks for their homeroom based on various games. My class was so far behind the others in points and my homeroom teacher felt bad. After she promised to award my class with a popcorn machine regardless of how much points we were supposed to earn for it, my class and I just ate the corn bread and wiped the crumbs to the floor instead of bothering to cut out our assigned shapes.
So the guy whose debt, compared to other "main" characters we know came from the fact that he stole money from people and used it to gamble turns out to be a snake willing to screw everybody over? What a surprise.
I had the same problem as Suraj the first time: Took me 2 or 3 viewings before realizing the Doctor and the Friend are two different people, they look similar with glasses and I was stoned the first two times I watched.
you know come to think of it, flashing back to the start the suit guy at the start let you pick either blue or red. gi-hun picked blue so he became a player ,, so maybe if he picked red he'd have been one of the guys with the guns
@@Karma-pq9fi yeah the author stated himself that the theory was false in an interview, that picking a specific color wouldn’t have changed their position in the games.
"There are as many workers as there are competitors" That's on purpose. Some of us help run the game and others are forced to sacrifice themselves for it. This show is great with stuff like that.
I haven't eaten this, but if it's baking soda added to sugar, then it's going to be a lot like what he call sponge toffee, and the british call honeycomb
Do you remember the red and blue square things on the subway? Those who choose the red one will be one of those Circle, Triangle, Square guys. Those who choose the blue one will be one of those players with numbers on their back.
I think the way they recruit the square, triangle, and cirlcle is if they chose the red paper instead of the blue one when the guy with the suit ask them to play.
@@hobbes6392 headcannon is stupid when the creators say it's not true. My headcannon is that none of the actors are Korean and they are all East African.
I think Sang-woo felt guilty about letting Gi-hun take the hardest shape and was going to tell him but then decided against it because he thought if Gi-hun knew, then he'd tell the other members of their team and that would in turn make it possible for other people to overhear and then everyone would end up choosing the easiest shapes and Sang-woo would have more people to worry about in the next game.
10:48 I do wonder if Nahid would have the same thought... And btw between the cigarcellos i´ll atleast bring a smol knife to defend myself even the tiny gun from cs.go could work (it is non-dumphy to aim with that, but hey is a thing)
The whole show is essentially a microcosm of capitalism. The poor are exploited by the rich and told that if they work hard they'll get all the money they want; but you don't get obscenely rich without hurting people on the way up.

Change subtitles to "English" not "English CC". The "English" subtitles are more accurate.
UP
yes!
THIS!
I prefer the cc though. Like during episode 2 the pickpocket threatened thst guy and said "ill rip your fucking throat out" and that sounds more badass than regular English version "I'll cut your throat"
And the sound descriptions are annoying.
The signs in the room said "don't take your helmets off ever outside of your own room."
“What that mouth do?” “Save my life” 😂😂😂😂
When your tongue game is so good it saves your life
Could you imagine if he used his tongue to just moisten only the outline of the umbrella? That'd be even more impressive lol.
