@@FarhanMustofa-u1ryes and it’s just as bad as you would think an English dub would be. I can think of at least three other reaction channels, including one that is currently dropping episodes of this, that watched the dub and it almost made it to where I couldn’t watch them react because the dub is so bad 😂
I live in Korea and always watch Korean stuff in Korean, but when I visit my parents they sometimes watch Korean series in FRENCH DUB and that just makes me want to rip my ears out every time. I cannot be in the same room, it's so bad. Very little emotions, missing context that is usually given in tones, etc. So bad.
Somehow, Episode 2 has the lowest IMDB rating of the series when it's my person favorite of the show. You have the whole voting scene which perfectly subverts expectations, then the answer to why people in these crazy situations don't go to the police, but then we move on to the efficient and effective setup of our character's motivations that affect the outcome of the show by humanizing them and making the stakes much higher and more real as they are force to navigate the games, and we get to see some of who they are outside of the games, in contrast to what they end up getting up to inside of them. Without this episode nearly the entire emotional backbone of the show is gone and that's the main draw of the show in the first place.
It also changes the context of the show, instead of "death game they accidentally got themselves into, now they must survive at all costs to return to their normal lives" it's "death game they willingly signed up for, they must survive at all costs for a better life outside the game"
I agree, it's my favourite episode too or possibly second favourite after ep 6. It really made the show stand appart for me when I was watching it for the first time pulling me in. The whole concept of the 2nd episode is a masterstroke and completely recontextualizes the show. No idea why the ranking is the lowest, maybe not enough death? I guess most people just have shit taste. 😀 Minor spoiler below. . . Also episode 2 gives us the true winners of squid game, it's the 15 or so people who chose not to come back.
I think the second episode is called "HELL" because it mostly shows their real lives back home which are miserable and feels like they're in "hell" making the game their savior or heaven.
In Korean, the episode is also named "hell", but the line that the episode is named after is translated differently in the subtitles. When the old man meets Gihun outside the convenience store, it's translated as "Out here, the torture is worse", but the Korean says "it's more like hell out here" or, for a very literal translation "out here, it's more hell" ("than in the games" is understood). So yes they literally mean that they're going through hell in their daily life. They don't say or think that the game is their savior or heaven though. They acknowledge that the game is absolutely horrible, but that it's the lesser of two evils compared to their life.
The episodes do really fly by; I loved how you were like "that's three episodes already?! danggg I have to wait until next week". This show really gets people involved!
Just wanted to tell you that your reaction videos are great. I appreciate how you make effort to comment are analyze what's going on on the screen, but manage to keep the balance between that and still being observant. It's not just watching someone staring at the screen and occasionally yelling wows. Thanks for your hard work!
Alice is even better than Squid Game, I think. I know it's a bit different, but still. When Squid Game came out and got all the attention I was so pissed because I really think Alice deserved as much love as Squid Game!
Please remember that "hyung" means "older brother" and can also be used by a man to address a slightly older man he's emotionlly close to. It will be important at some point to understand character dynamics.
Translating "hyung" as "older brother" is wrong. In Korean BLs, when two guys with an age gap are in a relationship, one still calls the other "hyung". Calling your boyfriend "big brother" wouldn't make any sense at all. So your second description is more accurate.
@Lale_Canfeda My friend, I have lived in Korea for 10 years. I have spoken Korean for nearly 10 years. I literally translate Korean webtoons for a living, most of which are BLs. The origin of 형 was to address a literal older brother and has evolved over time to include an older male person you feel close to. In this very series, it is used both by Sangwoo to address Gihun as a friend and by the detective to address his literal older brother. "Hyung" means "older brother" too and has meant that for longer than "older male friend". Just like "oppa" can be used by a woman to address her literal older brother or a guy slightly older than her. Just like a guy can use "noona" for both his literal sister and an older woman. Knowing this kind of stuff is part of my literal job, please do not try to correct an expert when you do not actually know what you are talking about. Thank you.
@@Lale_Canfeda No, I think you are just making assumptions because it would sound strange in your culture, probably making it sound like incest. But in Korea the sensibilities are clearly different and this is completely normal. So if you ever have Korean boyfriend, please call him older brother. 😀
@@manon_0411 Thank you for the explanation. It makes more sense now. I'm not an expert in Korean, unlike you. So it's good that I learned something new.
So psyched that you're watching this!! I agree that episode 2 may not be as intense but its soo necessary for getting to know and empathize with the characters. Just to set you up for more emotional devastation later on :') I echo other suggestions for Alice in Borderland if you like this genre!! AiB is less commentary on late stage capitalism and more existensial with fantasy/sci-fi elements, but no less intense, emotional, and entertaining! I know it was less popular but I personally find it more fun to watch than Squid Game (after you get over a particular hurdle early in season 1). Another point in AiB's favor is that it was only 2 seasons and now it's over! Nice and contained.
I always thought episode 2 was so smart because then we can’t spend the series saying people didn’t know what they were getting into. Which sure they didn’t at first but…they definitely do after game 1
Ah, episode 3, where we get to know Han Mi-nyeo. She's lowkey my favorite, except for a few moments. And of course, the real MVP: Jun-ho's phone battery.
For info, 1,000 won equal 1,10AUD, so Gihun's winnings at the horse race were just under 5,000AUD. Just divide whatever the amount they talk about by 1,000 to get an approximate AUD equivalent.
OH MY GOSHHHHHH I'M SO EXCITED TO REWATCH THIS WITH YOU!!! It was so popular when it came out and I really think the show was worth its hype! I really hope you tune in for Season 2 as well! Side note, if you ever decide to get into more Korean movies, please give Parasite (Oscar winning movie) a try! It has a crazy good plot! I love when you analyze and catch a lot of details that some viewers can't easily catch... I really think you'll like Parasite!!!
Three shows I beg you to watch after this: Alice in Borderland (Japanese live action), Goblin (Korean live action), and Legend of Vox Machina (American animation but heavily anime inspired)
The second episode is so fucking important in this show. It really drives home the point that for these people, the game truly is the better option than languishing in their insurmountable debt and awful life circumstances,
I love the "illusion" of choice in the second episode. It's played to be like it's fair, after all they chose to go despite knowing the odds, but what other chance did they have? It's painfully accurate, the whole capitalism commentary of how people get themselves in awful situations/jobs and the system plays it to be their choice, but the reality is that it's always people who virtually CAN'T "choose" anything else. The thing is that the game needs the existence of people in poverty to function, and so does capitalism
I cannot even express how happy I am that you're watching this 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 I really believe that everyone should watch this show it is by far one of the best I've ever seen❤❤❤❤❤ enjoy mate Pay attention to everything. 31:56 "He's so nice..." (ummm yeah...) winking 😜
So happy to watch this! One thing annoying though, is why they mistranslated as “if all the players agree to leave…” when the original line actually said “the majority vote” obviously… looks minor but it makes so many reactors around the world confused and it is quite frustrating! 😅haha anyway I look forward to your next reaction!
I’ve been to Korea quite a bit (I’m Australian) and a million won is about a thousand dollars. It’s not a perfect conversion but it’s around that. The most common bank note is the 10,000 or the 20,000. They are about 10 or 20 dollars.
I got so excited when I heard you were going to react to this!! I find it awesome that parts of Korean culture and cinema can get to more people :DDD Some things are definitely lost in translation, but it's fun anyway I don't know if you caught it, but the pickpocket girl and her brother are from North Korea, so she's trying to bring her mother into South Korea to be with them. That's also why she didn't pick up on why the workers were melting sugar, they didn't have games or childhood activities like that in the North. It also makes her determination and ruthlessness a bit more understandable. The honeycomb game is popular in Korea. You'll find the dalgona crackers sold on streets and sometimes, if you can get out the shape without breaking it, then you get another one for free (I think).
As expected your reactions never disappoints , love how you recognized the train to busan actor and how you knew that sangwoo was trying to off himself
There are so many great Korean shows on Netflix. My three personal favourites are 'it's okay not to be okay' 'Mr. Sunshine' and 'Crash landing on you.' Even shows like the Rookie Historian have such a unique take on stakes and storytelling, which I found very refreshing. Though these are definitely not his normal type of content, but maybe he could check out some stuff in his free time.
for the honeycomb challenge, it's ranked generally as the triangle is easiest, as it has all straight lines, but also the fewest lines total. Square is next easiest for a similar reason. Umbrella is hardest for the unusual shape. And Circle is the next hardest as it has no straight lines.
hi Oscar! I’ve been watching your channel for a while, I absolutely love your content! I would love to see you watch, “Horton hears a who”, and, “chicken little”. Absolute CLASSICS! You’ll love them! 🤍
you NEED to watch Alice in Borderland after this, it's like squid game, but BETTER, and i love this show, so... i think you're gonna love, give it a try!
To help with some context a bit later, I recommend researching just a little bit on words like "oppa", "seonsaengnim" and "hyung". It will give you a bit better understanding of some dialogue later where the subtitles translate them a little weirdly and the nuance is lost.
Hey just came to pop in and actually recommend you check out Alice in Borderland after you're done with this show! (Like many others seem to already be doing lol) I watch some of your other content but once this popped into my feed I couldn't help but feel the need to swoosh over and see if anybody else was bringing it up as a recommendation. As others have shared, I also personally like AiB a lot more for different reasons (not that squid game is bad at all!!) and it would be lovely to hear your thoughts on the show and it's cast of characters. Hope you enjoy the rest of the show!
You should absolutely try Alice In Borderland it's even better but didn't get as much hype. The games and characters are way better. It came out a year before Squid Game and compared to AIB , Squid Game just doesnt hit as good. Unfortunately most people didnt see AIB to know that!
Alice in borderland was amazing! I read the manga back in the day, and I didn’t realize it had been made into a series until after Squid Games came out. I remember thinking how similar it was to AIB when I watched it lol
In terms of how much everything is, ₩1000 is the equivalent of $1.10 in AUD. So 45.6 billion won is a little under $50,000,000 AUD 😊 this show is going to break you, but I’m so excited to watch your reaction. Please watch Alice in borderland if you’re interested in this kind of concept. It’s a Japanese drama on Netflix with a “play or die” kind of theme like squid game (I prefer it to squid game). Loving the reaction I’m going to go back to watching now hehe
Please do 'Alice in borderland' it's similar but different to this and u think you would enjoy it, love your videos and can't wait for the next 3 episodes ❤
Squid Game = traumatic, horrifying, crazy. Yes to all of this. Still, it is a fascinating study of human nature, human weakness, and human strength. Loved your reaction. Enjoy!
Admit it, Oscar, you started watching this because of the Macca's commercials. Great speculation and commentary of the episodes so far, always love your reactions
When I watched the Star Wars Acolyte series recently, I didn't regocnize that the main character here from Squid Game was in it too and playing a major role and was actually really good, despite people saying the series was bad lol.
I saw someone recommend Alice in Borderland. I would also like to recommend it. It has om similarities but it's so different nd I personally liked it better.
I agree with you. For me Alice in Borderland is better. Don't get me wrong, i like Squid game, but Alice in Borderland have so many aspects and layers. This show is awesome and the end is brilliant.
😂😂 I watched this show late too because I was like it's trending too much might be overrated and then I watched it and immediately understood why it was everywhere for months 😂😂
When this came out everyone was talking about it I didn’t watch it for the longest time then one night I said ok I will see what all the fuss is about. One of the most amazing shows I’ve ever seen. I will enjoy the idea with you. 🖖

Yes! Original language always!

YESSSSS I loved Alice in Borderland, I'd LOVE to see his reaction to it!
I'm watching Squid Game now for the first time and literally thought this morning how cool it would be if you reacted to this show... perfect timing!!
It's so good! I watched when it first came out and have rewatched many times. Season 2 comes out December 26th and I'm so excited!

Already 👍🏽👍🏽 since you watch it in Korean! 🤩

I also like how he might be in debt, but he is not greedy.
You should react to ALL OF US ARE DEAD!
In the light of the whole Pdiddy situations...the "elites" actually being real, squid games have probably happened irl which changes everything
1 AUD is about 963 won. So basically 1000 to 1
That was actually a real island in korea
Oh man can’t believe you finally reacting to this show!!
Thanks for reacting 💜
Love your reaction towards the series! Can't wait to see you react towards the rest of the episodes! ☺️

Also you could think about watching josef-King of dreams.
Oh squid games? “I remember it very well!”
You have me hooked now. You have to do all episodes in one sitting lol
There was a person trying to organize a real squid game on the dark web and they got busted. I believe either 500 or 5000 people signed up
How does this man know exactly what I'm watching?!
FINALLY!! I have been waiting for this and cannot wait to see the rest of the reactions and the emotional trauma this show gives lol
OMGGG SQUID GAME REACTION YESSS ❤ only about two weeks till Season 2! 😍
i'm not a big fan of this show, however i am a fan of you and am always excited for your takes so i will be tuning in!!
When I watched the Star Wars Acolyte series recently, I didn't regocnize that the main character here from Squid Game was in it too and playing a major role and was actually really good, despite people saying the series was bad lol.
you should watch alice in borderland next its sooo good
haha "that was rude"
Cool squid game, I'm usually not here in your TH-cam video comments cus I'm watching your full reaction on Patreon
I saw someone recommend Alice in Borderland. I would also like to recommend it. It has om similarities but it's so different nd I personally liked it better.
I agree with you. For me Alice in Borderland is better. Don't get me wrong, i like Squid game, but Alice in Borderland have so many aspects and layers. This show is awesome and the end is brilliant.
Oh man, I'm so here for this. 😂 Buckle in!
4.5 million won that he won at the race in the beginning is like 3100$
THE GASP I LET OUT WHEN I SAW THE TITLE!!!!
😂😂 I watched this show late too because I was like it's trending too much might be overrated and then I watched it and immediately understood why it was everywhere for months 😂😂
Thanks, Oscar! 🎲 I think you're going to love it.
I’ll never hear “Fly Me to the Moon” the same way again 😂
When this came out everyone was talking about it I didn’t watch it for the longest time then one night I said ok I will see what all the fuss is about. One of the most amazing shows I’ve ever seen. I will enjoy the idea with you. 🖖
I'm not sure what the best way to do this is but I'd like to recommend/request you react to the Fallout TV series.
OH MY GOSHHHHH ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS
34:35 Oscar: is there a single character in this movie that’s actually doing well for themselves …..well you seee ☝️🤓
