one of the unique things about east asian culture compared to western culture is that there are very little safety nets for people on hard times. There's also no real retirement for the elderly. When I lived in Korea I'd commonly see little old ladies scavenging through the garbage for recyclables and other things to resell. When you 'retire' in Korea as an average person your livelihood is your children and they're expected to take care of them. If they don't have children or have some sort of falling out they are sent into a life of extreme poverty. One of the first modern countries that I ever witnessed homelessness and scavenging from people not addicted to drugs.
@@un1kum42this right here!!! Koreans in debt is astronomical and its all based on their culture these movies based on debt are from real Korean life. my brother lives in Korean, is married to a Korean and has been in Korea for 15 years. He says the culture to please higher ups is what causes this crap and is super toxic, with the lowers in companies taking out their bosses out to eat and drink daily and incurring massive debt from almost fighting each other to pay for the whole night out by a lowly worker who could never actually afford to pay with their own money. The culture is to look like they live rich but live in a small shit box room is super real.
Says wear uniform rule about 2.15 on vid. I believe it was only their personal belonging that had to go. 8f can wear what she wants because those clothes were bought with her monies after the game started.
the clothes she wore in her room were bought with her own money but could only be worn in her room.The ones she wore outside were bought with the time the group had to spend there.
I saw the series and nearly threw up , I’m not normally so disgusted by things (even horror movies ) but it’s just so sick and the 8th floor is such a bitch
Honestly 5th room girl set everyone up for failure. She wasn't okay with how her tormentors were treated, but more than happy to do it to the people who were supporting her
you know what I hate most about these kinds of disgusting shows? That it's realistic. People truly are that disgusting and the situation portrayed is quite likely.
@@Chwoisaaaaaanti wouldn’t be surprised, considering of the red room live chats and porta potty situation from Dubai.. there must be ofc something like this, liar game , squid game , hostel, death tube etc

This is from the manwha/webtoon called the, "Pie Game" There are originally 7 participants only and I believe that they only pulled 4F out from the prequel, "Money Game" To add depth into the story. Here are the characters' description from the Webtoon: 7F(8F in the series): A bitch 6F(7F in the series): A meticulous person, chaotic good individual, and a great father. From what I recalled, his ways are cruel too. 5F(6F in the series): All brawn, no brains. He is really dumb unlike in the series. 4F(5F in the series): A man, yes, it's supposed to be a fat man who just follows what guarantees his survival the best. He was good though, I forgot. 2F from the prequel webtoon, "Money game"(4F in the series): A young lady who have illness. In her own webtoon, she is one of the liabilities. 3F(3F in the series): The main character of, "Money Game", "Pie Game", and "Funny Game". In the first Webtoon series, he was naive and sort of smart too. In the Webtoon second series which is what is featured in the video, he is a bit more knowledgeable because of his past participation in the game(Money game). He already knows the so-called "Organizer" nature where they want is violence. In the "Funny Game" Idk yet since I haven't read it, but they said that he is now the villain there. 2F(2F in the series): She is a cool and pretty lady that knows martial arts. She is skillful which makes her superior over 5F(6F in the series) in terms of strength. She is a good mother who remains kind all through the end of "Pie Game". 1F(1F in the series): A crippled man. THE MOST EVIL OF THEM ALL. He was like an angel from the earlier chapters of "Pie Game". However, it turns out that he is a manipulator and a violent individual with no tragic past. Therefore, he is just a pure psychopath. His methods are insane and that's all you need to know. Thank you for reading!
Your right, wouldn't be blackmail though, just by force or threats. Seven of them could have refused 8 from eating if she didn't comply. They thought too hard for this, it's pretty straightforward
@@existentialbunny1408 the issue is you have to keep the game going. that's why it's not straight forward. it completely depends on if the show runners are kept entertained. aka everyone HAS to suffer and if it's all controlled suffering the payout will be lower. You have the objective all wrong. it's maximizing the money gained from this debacle rather than solving for a comfortable time.
@@stuart4341 my guess is food is not something purchasable? They did have to make their own soju but 8F also bought alcohol so maybe just the show runners didn’t feel like letting them buy food
This reminds me of Denpa Shonen. They locked a comedian in a room for a year and he had to survive on what he could win by entering newspaper and magazine lotteries.
That was the eggplant guy right? I forget the word in japanese but its the word for eggplant and that became his nickname because they censored his johnson with an eggplant icon lol. Yeah that was almost the real life version of that. He could only have whatever he was able to win in sweepstakes and if im not mistaken, they even extended it longer because people enjoyed it so much. He had to hit winning like a million dollars worth of goods in sweepstakes and even when he did they just took him to a new place and started all over. Thats freaking insane lol
What was complex about explaining it? Pretty easy show to summarize tbh, no deeper plot and it's just torture porn of "look what horrible thing they're doing today", not some complex time travel plot explaining how someone went back in time somehow becoming their own father, grandfather, and son all at the same damn time where you have to watch it 10x in a row to really comprehend wtf even happened 💀
Btw, 1B WON is equally to about $728k USD. By the logic of the title of the video, to win $1M USD is too win 1.3B WON. WON is also the official currency of South Korea, if anyone didn't know.
5:57 I feel like this is a metaphor for people that are wealthy versus people that are poor! I mean, the girl blows her money on literally the dumbest stuff having no survival instincts. Meanwhile, the poor person is just like WTF. But it’s because the girl gets all the money back. Meanwhile, the poor person still struggles! The fact that people say humans are equal, it’s just preposterous! In society, humans will never be equal! There’s always going to be a tier system!
Yup there will always be something to be envious of even in a life where money doesn’t exist . A smile, the spouse that you have or the family you have created. Even in a truly equal world nothing would still be equal.
this is the exact plot of a webtoon going by the name "Money game" besides the fact you cant leave early in the webtoon and that everyone is the same in terms of accommodations and prize money at the end
@Qaywsx186 in money game they are eight with a personnal acces to a common cash prize and no advantage for any player, but nothing stops rhem from killing each other, In money game (the sequel) they are seven in a vertical setup with unequally alloted money according to their height but they cannot buy anything in their room, they can just send downstairs their belongings (the only way for the lower floor to acces food without entering another floor). The overall scenery is much dimmer as all the walls are brute concrete with nothing else. And in the webtoon the pov of the main character is crazy because the author displays them in a very graphic way which is so good. Anyway read both series
I’m pretty sure this is from a Korean Manhwa named “money game.” It is different than the Manhwa, and the rules/ atmosphere are slightly different, but I can definitely tell they are similar. I may be wrong that they related, but either way, they are very similar in many aspects such as the MC’s window cleaning job, the way they buy stuff, the timer, the 4f’s low blood sugar, the trash being put into the rooms and a lot of other stuff
"What" is on 2nd base. "Who" is on first base? What? No, "Who" is on first base.. "What" is on second base.. 6F and 7F picked 8F but 4F and 3F teamed up with 2F.
How can someone suddenly ask you for 900 million won/$650,000 and you are cool with it ?Go fight in a court instead of agreeeing to play stoopid games .
This is sh1t. The writing is inconsistent and the characters change depending on the plot needs. 5F easily gets hallucinations when the bad people are prisoners and 6F manages to TALK HER INTO GREEING HIM. But when the good people are prisoners she loses her morality and obeys 8F without ever wanting to free ghe good people. Mote stuff like this is present when characters don't use common sense. Overall very bad show
well basically, they're stuck in there until the timer goes down. they win money for each minute. the timer goes up whenever they entertain the cameras, so they have to keep entertaining. however they have to keep getting crueler and crueler. also they can't take the food out of the room in order to bring it down. So they have to trust the people above them to leave the food in the elevator for them. hence why 8 can keep all the food hostage.
This is just so unrealistic I find it annoying, all the violence and brutality are completely self inflicted and not caused by anything. I don’t think you can find a more irrational outcome then what happened
The idea for this show originated from a webcomic called "Money Game" and its sequal "Pie Game". The artstyle is very drab and plain, which makes the sudden escalations and crazy mindgames all the more potent. The video spoils most of the cool twists, so I highly recommend reading the webcomics first, if the premise interests you.
I dont know what i expected, but wtf? Im genuinely baffled, i have no words to describe what happened. I've seen a lot of disturbing shit. In any other piece of fiction there is some type of closure or finality to it. The ending gives no closure that this will not happen again.
Maybe I'm giving it too much credit but honestly really glad I saw this recap. Thumbnail makes it look like horror and I know ppl will say the 3rd act is torture porn but the first two acts (and 3rd too) have really good insights into not just capitalism, but class consciousness, class power dynamics, media and boredom, and base human dignity. Yes, the floors represent classes in a class pyramid, but also unique sectors/skills in society and how they're (under)valued in capitalism (they pyramid). They build a mini society where 6F personifies the enforcer/police class; 5F is medical/education - ish; 4F was and still is customer service; 2F is trades (valued v low in Asia); 1F is the starving artist; 7F represents mid-upper class w some success, and insite into sociopathic tendencies of elites, but still discontent. 3F is mostly the viewer. 8F represents elite politicians, working on behalf of masked corporate benefactors that enable her worst instincts. The elites only gave them more 'time' (opportunity / attention) when they were entertained by their suffering or debasement. 7F and 4F understand the need to appease 8F and distract her, and the faceless capitalists backing her as she controls the resources, the police 6F, and has the weapons. While 1F, 2F, 3F, 5F, and eventually 7F and 4F, would like to see political reform, they are all the while tempted, extorted, and blackmailed into silence. 7F tries setting up a loose egalitarian system in capitalism (social democracy) but this devolves when human jealousy kicks in under zerosum capitalism and 8F exploits these cracks to dissolve all democracy into autocracy. 1F's and 3F's only current 'value' to appease the elites/8F is debasing. Ironically 1F's skills were proven the most monetizeable per his cost (the value of art under capitalism). His work was overshadowed by 8F's sex show appealing to the fickle base (sex work under capitalism when other jobs don't pay as well). The fact that this was all recorded by the elites and never released reaffirms the benefactor class was in this for the boredom/amusement, despite being able to easily alleviate mass suffering. The game in a game is fun cause they basically set up a new economy/currency/stock market w these coins that are otherwise meaningless to the ruling class who get their real money from someone else directly and always have priority access to the 'real economy' (insider trading, corruption, etc). Anyone reading this is already likely in the top 10% globally by definition (7F-4F).
I'm amazed at the number of people who label Corporatism as Capitalism...It's funny but corporatism uses the same terms as capitalism but their meanings are very different. Rather like Mormons and Christians...Mormons use Christian words but they follow a completely different gospel.
Fun fact! The title is wrong, the protagonist is on the third (I think) but anyways the amount made by the character we mainly follow at first is: 21.66$ usd (30k won converted to usd) With that information we can see the conversion hourly rate. 30k won per minute = 21.66usd 21.66 x 60 minutes = 1,299.60 equaling an hour With that being said a whole 24 hours equates to 31k But the game isn’t that easy because outsider viewers need to pay for more time to gain money for contesters
IS IT about capitalism? Idk. I would say it’s more like communism where a everybody is supposed to be equal but in reality, at some point, a few end up being on top and become the ruling force, more like North Korea.
spoilerrrr no, they were all poor when they arrived, after the show she bulldozed an art gallery cause of a grudge, she had to compensate them with all her money and got imprisoned (lame ending for her imo)
@@robert23456789 yeah, idk if it was noticeable in this recap but she's bat-shit crazy. Before she went on the show she was playing on her electric guitar (with the speaker) in front of the gallery for change...
Yeah the creator I don't think understands the difference in money values. The WON is very cheap compared to USD. As $1 is equal to about 1370 WON. I've been to South Korea, it's a very humbling experience. To see the difference in cost but the quality is better. If people ever had the ability to travel to a country where $20 to you is $20 and $20 to them is expensive you will have a very welcoming experience to get a good grasp on how values can change your concepts.

The elites only gave them more 'time' (opportunity / attention) when they were entertained by their suffering or debasement. 7F and 4F understand the need to appease 8F and distract her, and the faceless capitalists backing her as she controls the resources, the police 6F, and has the weapons. While 1F, 2F, 3F, 5F, and eventually 7F and 4F, would like to see political reform, they are all the while tempted, extorted, and blackmailed into silence. 7F tries setting up a loose egalitarian system in capitalism (social democracy) but this devolves when human jealousy kicks in under zerosum capitalism and 8F exploits these cracks to dissolve all democracy into autocracy. 1F's and 3F's only current 'value' to appease the elites/8F is debasing. Ironically 1F's skills were proven the most monetizeable per his cost (the value of art under capitalism). His work was overshadowed by 8F's sex show appealing to the fickle base (sex work under capitalism when other jobs don't pay as well). The fact that this was all recorded by the elites and never released reaffirms the benefactor class was in this for the boredom/amusement, despite being able to easily alleviate mass suffering. The game in a game is fun cause they basically set up a new economy/currency/stock market w these coins that are otherwise meaningless to the ruling class who get their real money from someone else directly and always have priority access to the 'real economy' (insider trading, corruption, etc).
Anyone reading this is already likely in the top 10% globally by definition (7F-4F).
I'm amazed at the number of people who label Corporatism as Capitalism...It's funny but corporatism uses the same terms as capitalism but their meanings are very different. Rather like Mormons and Christians...Mormons use Christian words but they follow a completely different gospel.
Wait... That's almost literally Mr. Beast 100 days video.
Fun fact! The title is wrong, the protagonist is on the third (I think) but anyways the amount made by the character we mainly follow at first is: 21.66$ usd (30k won converted to usd)
With that information we can see the conversion hourly rate.
30k won per minute = 21.66usd
21.66 x 60 minutes = 1,299.60 equaling an hour
With that being said a whole 24 hours equates to 31k
But the game isn’t that easy because outsider viewers need to pay for more time to gain money for contesters
I would play in a show like that
you would be 1f sorry
An actual series, recap with an ending !
Pretty rare
Wow.. Great recap
69 hrs they definitly put on a show in 69 lol
I thought the amounts of money they were talking about were insane but 1 million a day is only 715 bucks
If i was in the game, all I would buy is a phone, then I'm basically locked in the whole game :)
Newest dog pack video 💀💀💀💀
Pov: MrBeast in an alternate Reality
Actually a really great ending
This show was allrighy untill they started sleep deprivation torture
I didn't think 8f would survive more than a day...
It really shows the state of south korea how literally every show they produce is about how bad capitalism is
Yea capitalism makes good TV wish they made real shows like this
Remember to take frequent breaks after all that strenching
Are they wrong though?
IS IT about capitalism? Idk. I would say it’s more like communism where a everybody is supposed to be equal but in reality, at some point, a few end up being on top and become the ruling force, more like North Korea.
@@Gundumb_guy ah yes they get different amounts for the same time from the beginning for no reason. Classic socialism
Take one shot for every time you hear "F" during this video.
Mr beast during the purge
do games like this happen often over seas because id love to be in one
They finally made a movie about that guy who worked for mrbeast! :D
There's always a catch to making so much in one go
Average Mr Beasts video 2050
The sideman just did something similar to this!!!
For a million bucks they oughtta be scared of me
It’s like $750 USD calm down
Mr beast has gone out of his comfort zone
So i will assume 8F is the game runner here
spoilerrrr
no, they were all poor when they arrived, after the show she bulldozed an art gallery cause of a grudge, she had to compensate them with all her money and got imprisoned (lame ending for her imo)
@@magfinite so she went on a never ending show of trolling people to get money to bulldoze a building to settle a grudge so far to go
@@robert23456789 yeah, idk if it was noticeable in this recap but she's bat-shit crazy. Before she went on the show she was playing on her electric guitar (with the speaker) in front of the gallery for change...
@@magfinite we can hope Mr beast runs a shoe like that I'll go on ok maybe the rule about having to keep rubbish in your room can go away
The title is super false, he dosent get 1m a day.
Not everything is in dollars
@@ryozha7663 but the title says $
1 million won is $724.5 USD.
@@ryozha7663 So dollar signs dont stand for dollars now?
@@mAny_oThERSs no, actually not. There are a ton of currencies that use $, you call it dollar sign because that's what you grew up with
I feel like a dui trying to do the alphabet.
This was a great show
Jake weddles worst nightmare:
Welcome to korean game show series, where everyone is a psychopath!
This is from webtoon right?
The money game and pie game
this makes my list over squid games 100%, i feel i dont even gotta watch it now lol
You don't see this creativity in Hollywood. Brilliant show, very reminiscent of Danganronpa games.
average twitch subathon
I really only came to make a MrBeast Joke
i wonder why they just didnt go the sexual route instead of js being vicious
A: violence according to the viewer in the show is more entertaining than sexual activities
B: this movie would turn into something entirely different
@@Zackhitnope it was shown violence was boring
its South Korean......
@@bascoaful u right they more conservative
@@Zackhitwell u can mix them both together to create more since there’s technically no laws in there
That's some mr.Beast stuff
Ngl this show was epic 💯
Mr.Beast if it wasn't Aired on TH-cam but some shady deep web sites ;d
I would stay for a day
Did he just say "B.A.E Jinsoo"??? Lol
those are some committed actors
Mr beast darkweb channel
Looks like that
Basically a better Squid game, holy
Feels like the objective of this movie is to make the audience upset like what are these weird ragebait scenarios
Do people realize the events in these films happen in real life? How do you think you would do?
Epstein island.
Great show
725.28 dollars every day, actually. Thats how much 1 million won is
Yeah the creator I don't think understands the difference in money values. The WON is very cheap compared to USD. As $1 is equal to about 1370 WON.
I've been to South Korea, it's a very humbling experience. To see the difference in cost but the quality is better. If people ever had the ability to travel to a country where $20 to you is $20 and $20 to them is expensive you will have a very welcoming experience to get a good grasp on how values can change your concepts.
🤦🏾♂️
I think I could have watched this in real time and still not understood everything going on.😊
