Squid Game S2 E5 - "One More Game" (FULL EPISODE REACTION)

Hey guys!

Starting this week off strong with another episode of Squid Game!! I'm so stoked! I'm already starting to feel the void being creating within me that happens every time I finish the season of a badass show!

I know they are going to cliffhang the fuck out of us on the last episode... that being said, let's talk about this episode... FUCKING NUTS!!! I get so frustrated when these dick heads are saying they want to play one more game.

However, the tension that they've been able to curate and consistently implement episode after episode is really impressive, and I find myself looking forward to these episodes so much. AND FUCK THAT OLD ASS DUDE! That's not a great description, but that older dude that is always complaining... yeah fuck that guy.

Anyway, I love you all so much!

-Alex

I never realized it until this watch through that during the six leg game player number 001 spins the top with his right hand every time he messes up and switches to the left on the last throw

Hunter Beard

Kobain Hine(Kyber)

LMAOOOOOO

i love roids

Some of the things thanos says in English is because he is a K-pop artist, where it’s seen as cool to combine both languages

Michael

I find it funny how the show also dips into the joke about thailands trans women thing

Michael

unnie means big sister so you thinking they could be a couple made me feel uncomfortable lol

This was his debut acting role. He's a gifted rapper. Very sweet and shy person. I got to see him (and his group) in concert and had the VIP meeting pass as well. I have pictures somewhere. His group Big Bang is considered one of the most influential groups in the Kpop industry and they have been labeled "Kings of Kpop". If you're familiar with Korean rappers, like RM from BTS, they list TOP and GDragon (both Big Bang members) as their idols. Big Bang laid the groundwork for groups like BTS, Stray Kids and Black Pink to become as popular as they are in the West. They were one of the first groups to get to even do concerts in America. At that time, they'd have 2 - one in Cali and one at MSG in NY. Park Sung-hoon (the actor that plays Hyun-ju) is not a trans person. He isn't well liked either because he portrays a villain in Queen of Tears. Thankfully, he's getting international recognition because it took some balls to even agree to the part to begin with and he's also done a great job with the character. Hyun-ju is one of my favorites -- along with the mother. I'm not very familiar with the actor's other works but her character reminds me of my own mother.

They aren’t keeping people’s organs for his wife, Alex, they are keeping them because some workers are going under the table to sell organs to the black market for money

Michael

I'll have to look that up I'm not familiar with him as an actor but he's a fun character to love to hate.

Melody Netherton

Same!

Melody Netherton

maybe, but the guy is left handed so maybe he was failing on purpose by using his right hand instead idk

xSimplyBlu

nah he was shot in the right shoulder in the end of season 1 so that's why he was struggling with it

Most Koreans now speak more of a form of Konglish than actual native Korean. It's just the younger generations being exposed to more Western cultures and languages. I have friends born and raised in Korea that do not know some native Korean words for items, only the Konglish word. On variety shows, it is now a game to not use English words when speaking. They have a hard time trying to explain something like a remote control, air conditioning, apartment without using the Konglish word. (remo-con, air-con, and apateu - like the Rose and Bruno Mars song APT - which is based on a drinking game.) It's easier to create a flow in different languages as well. Some go with English, others Spanish. The Stray Kids song chk chk boom has Korean, English and Spanish. Same with Work by ATEEZ. I also see someone like Thanos using English because you kind of need Western countries now to make more money. English is the "common tongue" for international business/work. It is also taught in school - I was an English teacher in Seoul for several years. Many colleges require a certain proficiency in English, especially the more prestigious it is. Just like to become a citizen of South Korea you have to have a certain proficiency in Korean.

Veronica Lenée

no not front runner! His character is FRONTMAN.

Robert Miller

Not even so much that. But if he was using the "English" subtitles option it would be closer to the original intent. Some of the changes made in the "English [CC]" setting are just bad.

Robert Miller

I feel the same about the CC setting. Many things are translated incorrectly and, unless you're at least semi-familiar with the culture, people miss a lot of information.

Veronica Lenée

South Korea is extremely strict. Mainly when it comes to what they have on their broadcasting networks. Zero LGBTQ+, smoking, tattoos, PSY got a song banned once because he kicked a public sign in the MV, you're not supposed to have your back to the camera. Shows like this are a little more relaxed because it isn't the two broadcasting stations can control - that's why you get a lot of Korean movies and dramas with streaming services. Season 2 did not perform as well for these reasons along with the decision to have TOP on the show as Thanos due to his "scandals".

Veronica Lenée

I thought she had the baby in the toilet too dont worry 😂

Matthew McMahon

I love how the old woman is very not pc from the very begining but never purposfully mean. She means well and learns which I think is just beautiful. It's sad that south Korea proved what she says about prejuduce right because this season did the worst in it's home country due to the outrage over that character. The creator said he was disapointed in his country.

Melody Netherton

lmfao

xSimplyBlu

Ive seen this seen on multiple Instagram Posts and TikToks

tomasz

#11 guard used to be in the military. She shot a bunch of opposing forces and made it through some fights on her own. Then shot her supervisor and flew the country which we learned about in her conversation with the mule. Yes the story about Frontman's wife is real. Only she is of course already dead. It is more than likely the reason why he went in years ago for the first time when he won as a player. The son is talking about trans people in Thailand, not hooking up. Random English words are thrown into K-Pop music. He was a rapper, so it fits. "Why are you so sweaty? Why are you so wet?" They are in a bathroom and she's standing over a sink. Obviously she just washed her hands and face. Ugh this closed caption setting is annoying. Leaves so much out and translates wrong. I guess its kinda pointless to say it again since you have seen the last episodes by now, but his name is Gi-hun...

Robert Miller

front runner, got it

Alex Hefner

where did you hear this? I haven't seen it mentioned in any interviews with the cast.

Robert Miller

Ironically the actor is right handed, but the character is left handed. So he had to try to screw up with his best hand initially.

Robert Miller

Gonggi is similar to jacks (the 5 stone game). Hana, Dul is correct - it is the Native Korean words for one and two. Korea does use Sino-Korean numbers as well which is where you'll hear il for one and i (like letter e) for two. It depends on what you're counting on which you use. Noona is "older sister". A word that guys will use toward an older female in their friend group. Girls call older girls "Unni" for the same reason. Girls call older guy friends and boyfriends "Oppa" and guys call older guy friends "Hyung". It is part of the respect hierarchy. Thanos did also use the word "Maknae" which just means the youngest person in the group. (Apologies) I'm editing as I watch to help answer questions. I've lived in Seoul for several years and am very familiar with Korean culture. No-eul (#011 sniper) is a North Korean Military defector. She had to leave her baby behind after she shot her superior officer and took out the team sent to bring her back. She is a badass. It seems like her goal is to make the money needed to find her daughter. Her interests don't align with the organ harvesting because she was under the assumption that she's just ending the misery these people are enduring from debt. It may be against her moral code. I think she'll be tested when it comes to Player 246 (the dad of the strawberry hat child). Okay last edit: The dance Thanos is doing for the Mingle game is a callback to his group (Big Bang). They have a song called Bang Bang Bang and the dance is part of their point choreography.

Veronica Lenée

It's okay Alex I have no coordination. I'd definitly kill my team too! That being said, great reaction!

Melody Netherton

ITS THE FRONTMAN. FRONT. MAN. LOL

Lucky

what i find interesting is that the frontman was throwing that spinning thing with his right hand when he kept on failing, then in his final attempt he threw it with his left hand, probably hinting that he is left handed and was throwing it with the wrong hand on purpose to waste time and maybe put pressure on player 456 idk

xSimplyBlu

he knew the timing well so he’s like let me mess with them for a bit.

i love roids

Yessir

i love roids

Wow this also actually proves Alex does not remember a single thing from the first season surprised he rememberd the main character lol

Berri

Thanos is rapper and idolizes America. He's speaking English time to time beaguse he thinks its making him sound cool.

Wispu

Literally most if not all countries use English phrases kind of as a slang like saying "bro" for example

Berri

Which is ironic because the actor is right handed, but his character is left handed. So he had to really screw up with his best hand.

Robert Miller

Front man was totally fucking with em. You can tell on the last throw he switched hands

Ryan B

Thanos had No script during the season everything is from him thats prop why he speaks Some english Words

tomasz

Alex’s team is so dead lol

Allison Grinnell
