Jessica here and I'm so sorry at the two ways I've pronounced Gi-hun's name. I was running on absolutely no sleep and being sick which isn't an excuse. I should have spent more time focusing on the pronunciation, and I recognize the mess up and I'm so very sorry!
How did you not include the fact that Kim purposely lost Rocks Paper Scissors, because he promised he wouldn't let anything happen to him, because he "officiated His Wedding" - absolute cinema, absolute friendship ❤
There is a pretty big hint that the sea captain is shady. At one point when they are coordinating the search in the cabin with him, you can distinctly see him lean in to listen then start doing this tapping motion with his right hand near the bottom of the frame. When I saw it, I immediately shouted "he's shady" and figured he was using morse code to let the bad guys know what they were doing.
388 having PTSD makes sense, however, they definitely intimated that he may not have actually been a Marine. He mentioned that he wasn't allowed to play outside as a child because he was the only boy. I also remember that he delayed when saying what unit he was in. I think he may have dreamed of being a Marine, but never actually was one, and then he froze in actual combat because he had never seen actual combat.
Potentially, there is some hints with his unit number. In 2011 there was a shooting in South Korea with his unit number, basically 2 members shot up squadmates. And at the time Player 388 would've been around 21 so could just have really bad PTSD surrounding it.
Also, the most action ROK military of all branches have is securing the DMZ and joint drills or exercises to stay in fighting shape. The most foreign activity they had was during the War on Terror.
He def isn’t a marine lol just look at junbae and him in comparison even when one looks fitter than the other but he couldn’t even shot anyone and basically fk everyone up at the end
It is truly insane that Gi-Hun wasn't suspicious of Young-Il. Even his name sounds like a parallel to Oh-Il-Nam. Where Oh-Il sounds like "Old Il" and then of course "Young-Il". Both 001s Gi-Hun was full blown conspiracy John Wick about the Squid Games. So him having seemingly zero suspicion based on his last experience was the most unrealistic thing to me.
Am I the only one who thinks the boat captain is the captain of the organ boat? It could be. They never reveal his identity in the first season and he could be sabotaging the rescue team's effort to continue the organ harvesting operations.
Could be but wasn't he busy a lot of the time exploring for the island with the cop dude? Not sure how often he would need to be at the island to take the body parts, though.
Ya it definitely seemed to imply that. He straight up killed that drone pilot. And I was wondering what he was doing g near this island way out in the middle of the ocean that they can’t even find with a satellite map. There’s something up there
100%. that's how he found the cop, he was doing his rounds and saw the body. and because he knew exactly where the island is, he was also able to keep going to the wrong place so the cop couldn't find it
Season one and its games really focused on individualism and financial desperation. Season two is really feeling like it's echoing how much of the world is choosing sides when everyone can succeed if they work together. So far, in the games, there doesn't really have to be losers (mingle could be questionable), and they each have a lesson to teach, following a leader, listening, compromising, encouraging.
one thing I noticed was that player 246 and the guard 011 are both main characters in sweet home so it was funny to me that they were involved with each other in this
The song in 'One More Game' is a deep cut. It's by the late Shin Hae-cheol, a famous K-rock star from the 90s and 00s. The title is 그대에게 and in Korea, it is practically a national cheer song for sporting events.
A.K.A., Player 001 had more fun than anyone else. I personally liked the end. We knew there was going to be another season soon. So its not like it just ends for good.
Player 388 is lying about being a marine. You can tell in almost every situation where it’s mentioned. The reason why he freezes at the end of the season is because he’s a fraud. During the gun fight he barely if even at all shoots his weapon. He is always scared and in cover shaking. He a liar!!
24:57 might be psychological, but a much larger amount of people of Asian descent are lactose intolerant than those of European descent. Seemed like just an everyday bit of writing to me.
it's because of the early men and how the use of milk got spread, especially in cheese form, it allowed for europeans to better develop a tolerance to it. while many of us are lactose intolerant, it's not as common as it is in asia. i've seen people say the whole lactose intolerance thing is some sort of hint, but i just saw it as them building a characters, because it's pretty common for asians to be lactose intolerant
Has anyone else had that darn mingle sing stuck in their head for weeks coming up at the most random and inappropriate times? It’s like always silently playing in the back of my brain. 😖😖
Usually I don’t have an issue with most English dubs, but these actors are top tier and you definitely get a better experience in the original language
When Thanos is dancing during the first spin of the Mingle minigame it is the actual dance from the original song of Mingle, so that's also an easter egg because it's not a dance that they do for fun and are just recreating the character's dancing to that song
Despite the harsh RT & MetaCritic audience & critics scores imo for S2, been great to see it get an insane record 152.5m views in its first 18 days! Loved the Mingle 'Musical Chairs' Game!
i dont know if its ptsd cuz when he is given the gun hes looking at it like he doesnt know what to do with it, even while being shown how to reload he seems totally lost. im hoping its not a case of false valor cuz hes awesome but im really confused why looked at the gun like hes never seen one before
@TristanHathaway but he's a marine so he would have held a gun through basic training before becoming one and to be a marine u typically have to know your guns that's where my head is at
Do you think that the outcome of the last episode might have been different if 456 didn't tell the frontman he was willing to sacrifice people to end the games? The frontman said the games won't stop till the world changes. I like to think the frontman almost had hope in 456 but when he said he was willing to sacrifice people it proved he wasn't really any different.
My biggest gripe this season, which broke my immersion and made me stop my binge and just get up out of my seat, was in this scene 28:33 where they + Gi-Hun hid under the bed to sacrifice their team members to the murdering party, and then after getting rid of the guards and taking over the weapons, Gi-Hun simply pleads to THE MURDERING PARTY who just FINISHED KILLING OFF GI-HUN'S SIDE, to simply take part in the rebellion with him??? And then they were just like "Ok, lol sure why not" about it?? And my emotions were high because one of my favorite gals were sacrificed in the attack.
It wasn't as bad to me as some say, it just was incomplete and I'm heavily interested in how the Games go from this point forward after the failed revolt.
Would the mask work though? I feel like it identified who was beneath it the first time we saw it used so when it worked here I was thinking “so are there identities just squares and triangles”😂 that’s all it takes to get about this place
Why did you guys use the garbage English dub for this one? I just rewatched your guys' Squid Game season 1 video and it's using the original Korean version. Where tf is the consistency?
@@jonah64I watched the dub for both seasons and season 2 was way better. There were obviously a couple people who were still way over the top, but it was still an improvement
It really is disgusting the amount of money wealthy people would put into something like this as opposed to everyone having sufficient food, housing, and energy.

Don’t worry about it Jessica! We all go through it. We love you ❤
We love you ❤❤❤
Keep that smile and don't worry about.....
I love when people don't double down and just come out and say something they messed up on. You are a blessing, Jess❤
It’s okay Jess
How did you not include the fact that Kim purposely lost Rocks Paper Scissors, because he promised he wouldn't let anything happen to him, because he "officiated His Wedding" - absolute cinema, absolute friendship ❤
Ikr i teared up when kim died
The fact the made me feel genuinely sad for the shitty loan shark from season 1 is honestly impressive lol
Reminded me of Sirious probably greatest line: "I would have died before betraying my friends!"
It was so heartbreaking! What a friend.
Tht made me say "oh wooow" in a surprising, sad and heartbreaking tone

Agreed. He struggled using his rifle in the beginning before the all shoot out.
Also, the most action ROK military of all branches have is securing the DMZ and joint drills or exercises to stay in fighting shape. The most foreign activity they had was during the War on Terror.
He def isn’t a marine lol just look at junbae and him in comparison even when one looks fitter than the other but he couldn’t even shot anyone and basically fk everyone up at the end
How I felt too
It is truly insane that Gi-Hun wasn't suspicious of Young-Il. Even his name sounds like a parallel to Oh-Il-Nam. Where Oh-Il sounds like "Old Il" and then of course "Young-Il". Both 001s

Yep.
Because how is it you were able to rescue me, but can't find where I was with your 30 years of experience🤔
Could be but wasn't he busy a lot of the time exploring for the island with the cop dude? Not sure how often he would need to be at the island to take the body parts, though.
@Zzues it was once a week for 2 years not 24/7
Ya it definitely seemed to imply that. He straight up killed that drone pilot. And I was wondering what he was doing g near this island way out in the middle of the ocean that they can’t even find with a satellite map. There’s something up there

No wonder we had a character named Thanos that should've tipped us off that this was the Infinity War season
Got catch 🪀
nice.. didnt think of that!
It should have also tipped us off that the good guys were going to lose as well.
“IVE PLAYED THESE GAMES BEFORE”
🤣🤣💀💀💀💀💀
one thing I noticed was that player 246 and the guard 011 are both main characters in sweet home so it was funny to me that they were involved with each other in this
The recruiter is the best character. They really should have had him join the games.
Using the dub clips is crazy
why?
@@migwar the dub is infinitely worse than the sub
@@fruitloopdingiscry u both
@@fruitloopdingiswatched it both way. Dub is fine.
@@beanscuz11iVe pLaYeD tHeSe gAmEs bEfOrE
Can we talk about how long this game has been going on? If the recruiter had first served as a cleaner for the games and shot his father in the head.

I am so happy they showed them going for magazines and reloading their weapons 🙌
17:10 Rings on the gauntlet has me rolling 😂
When did these become "explaining the episode we watched" instead of actually "showing secrets and easter eggs"..
That's kinda what they always have been unfortunately lol
👀
once Erick stopped doing episodes
Title says “Details & Easter Eggs”.
It’s like pork & beans: A hundred beans + One small pork slice.
I been praying for Jessica’s health and wellness!
A.K.A., Player 001 had more fun than anyone else.
I personally liked the end. We knew there was going to be another season soon. So its not like it just ends for good.
31:10 as were we all Jess 😖😂

You'll offend people saying lactose
yeah lactose intolerance is actually the default more most of the world iirc, it's mostly ppl of some European descent who arent,
it's because of the early men and how the use of milk got spread, especially in cheese form, it allowed for europeans to better develop a tolerance to it. while many of us are lactose intolerant, it's not as common as it is in asia. i've seen people say the whole lactose intolerance thing is some sort of hint, but i just saw it as them building a characters, because it's pretty common for asians to be lactose intolerant
Player 120 is an absolute unit. Loved the character in the last episode!
28:42 the drink between Gi-hun and Il-nam happened before he went to the game, not when gi-hun got out.
It happened after they went to the games initially and all voted to leave the games before the second game took place.
i dont know why you think a bee outside is weird, they opened the roof. bugs fly around...
120 and the old mother were my favorite characters this season. ❤
Cannot wait to see the conclusion!
⭕️ Limited Ammo 🙆♂️
❌ Unlimited Soldiers 🙅♂️
Blew my mind finding out Thanos character is 36 in real life. Was sure he was like 23 lol
no way!
and MC Coin aka Player 333 is also in his late 30s
The dub clips were an insane choice tbh. Squid games recuiter-levels of unhinged.
For me seeying T.O.P from BIGBANG had me fangirling once I saw him in Squid Game S2❤
Crazy thing is thanos was evil but he definitely knew how to play the games 😅 and was good at them
Has anyone else had that darn mingle sing stuck in their head for weeks coming up at the most random and inappropriate times? It’s like always silently playing in the back of my brain. 😖😖
i can’t take this seriously cos of the english dub
For reals lol at least respect the language we can read lol
Same lmao
Usually I don’t have an issue with most English dubs, but these actors are top tier and you definitely get a better experience in the original language
The first clip almost jump scared me because I wasn't prepared for the English 😂
Some people are auditory listeners. Chill
Thanks you have answered my calls!!
10:00 hand what? 😂
quick shout out, I love these reviews from Jessica! Keep 'em coming!
Right on time! It’s only been out for a month!
Its not ptsd he was never in the marines
I can't wait for Part 2 of this season!
gamora actually stabbed illusion thanos in the throat when he casted the reality illusion at the collectors
When Thanos is dancing during the first spin of the Mingle minigame it is the actual dance from the original song of Mingle, so that's also an easter egg because it's not a dance that they do for fun and are just recreating the character's dancing to that song
Honestly so unbelievable that the main character doesn’t even once question 001!!!!!!!! Like not even an ounce of concern. Esp after he returned
Despite the harsh RT & MetaCritic audience & critics scores imo for S2, been great to see it get an insane record 152.5m views in its first 18 days! Loved the Mingle 'Musical Chairs' Game!
I love your coverage of the TV series thank you so so much for creating this wonderful content
If the breakroom hits 100k yall have to play that game "six legs".
I just found out squid games is a true story that took place in the 80's in Korea
22:43 6 legged pentathalon actually has its own wall drawing monkey bars is something different
Yo Jessica! Great video from your buddy Maso
I love T.O.P its weed they need to relax they swear he committed murder or something els they way they talk about him
Bout dam time! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🤘🏼
i dont know if its ptsd cuz when he is given the gun hes looking at it like he doesnt know what to do with it, even while being shown how to reload he seems totally lost. im hoping its not a case of false valor cuz hes awesome but im really confused why looked at the gun like hes never seen one before
They call this out when he mentions that he couldn't play outside as the only boy.
@TristanHathaway but he's a marine so he would have held a gun through basic training before becoming one and to be a marine u typically have to know your guns that's where my head is at
@jesselunn5657 I agree that he is not a Marine
@@jesselunn5657 I was saying that they call out that he probably wasn't one
My favorite scene of the season is absolutely when the frontman loses his shit with everyone in celebration. That shit had me done
Great content 👌🏼
Do you think that the outcome of the last episode might have been different if 456 didn't tell the frontman he was willing to sacrifice people to end the games?
The frontman said the games won't stop till the world changes.
I like to think the frontman almost had hope in 456 but when he said he was willing to sacrifice people it proved he wasn't really any different.
these english dubs are horrendous. how did you guys watch this dub lmao
25:27 mine too😂😂😂 tht scene took me out
23:58 if you look at the wall beside them, you can see the hint to the next game they will be playing: The merry go round. ( I believe)
I’m ready for season 3!!!! ❤❤❤❤
Sending those daily positive vibes from Houston everyone!
My biggest gripe this season, which broke my immersion and made me stop my binge and just get up out of my seat, was in this scene 28:33 where they + Gi-Hun hid under the bed to sacrifice their team members to the murdering party, and then after getting rid of the guards and taking over the weapons, Gi-Hun simply pleads to THE MURDERING PARTY who just FINISHED KILLING OFF GI-HUN'S SIDE, to simply take part in the rebellion with him???

“Oh no ….” 20:03 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Been waiting for this
Am i the only one that wanted Thanos to win?
I love thanos, but he most definitely should not win
Ohhh dubbed version. Oof
Hey guys love u all ❤❤❤❤❤
I know Jess openly calling them rings and not stones has got some of you going 😂😂
7:43
Look at homeboy’s eyes, one is larger for one side that is insane, and the other side is low cause he’s scared
MCU Loki also tried to stab Thanos in the neck
22:30 Thanos’ Infinity Stones
🔴🟡🟣🟢🔵
👍👍👍
Anyone else hear the hook of evanescence “bring me to life” faintly in the background too or am I insane?
Technically thanos did get stabbed in the throat by Gamora in the scene where he altered reality
The cuts on Kang No-eul are also the number 11 😮
I’m glad to hear more people loved Thanos. He was the best part of this season for me. So corny and funny and just oh so unserious.
As I was just listening to this video whilst doing workout, ERIC’s voice at 11:13 made me check my phone 😂😂😂😂
Thanos the MVP this season 👌🏾
OMG I loved Thanos
A 30 minute bus ride is not “close” but it’s a manageable distance
@@NoonMight that depends on the route. In the city I used to live in a 30 min bus ride was like 5 mins by car and like 15 by bike.
I love player 230😊
I was waiting for this
It wasn't as bad to me as some say, it just was incomplete and I'm heavily interested in how the Games go from this point forward after the failed revolt.
Welcome to the THANOS world
27:20 Wasn't Thanos from Marvel stabbed in the neck? It was by Gamora and only an illusion by using the reality stone but still.
At number 28, 25:53, Young-Mi's number is actually 095.
You said player 120, which is actually Hyun-Ju.
Reacted the same way at the Latin message reveal!! that’s a WILD line to have in their room
The hoods like,” 456.. he’s good”
Im 90% sure that the guard that shot player 246 at the end is guard 011, so he'll probably be still alive
Would the mask work though? I feel like it identified who was beneath it the first time we saw it used so when it worked here I was thinking “so are there identities just squares and triangles”😂 that’s all it takes to get about this place
The most insane thing here is watching this in Dub.
Can't even say "homeless" smh
"unhoused" LOL
Why would anyone use word unhoused.. Like where in California did it come from?
SUB > DUB.
Kicked they ass with a suitcase… damn lol
also also aslo did you see the trailer where they all in suits could that be a clue to who makes it to the final episode in s3?
388 was never in the marines, he can't even handle a gun properly 🤔
Why did you guys use the garbage English dub for this one? I just rewatched your guys' Squid Game season 1 video and it's using the original Korean version. Where tf is the consistency?
I feel like the Halloween episode was also a meta moment poking fun at how EVERYONE was dressed as squid game for Halloween after it launched
Who watched season 2 in 1 day?
binged in 1 sitting this evening
Its kind of crazy how much I dislike the dub
Compared to season one, this dub was golden.
@@jonah64I watched the dub for both seasons and season 2 was way better. There were obviously a couple people who were still way over the top, but it was still an improvement
I’m sorry but the dub is just so awful i just can’t. You lose so much watching the English dub compared to just reading the captions
22:22 I disagree those organs could have been used to save lives, not they are going to burn in the ground.
It really is disgusting the amount of money wealthy people would put into something like this as opposed to everyone having sufficient food, housing, and energy.
