Answering 5 Questions About Squid Game | Squid Game Explained

[@adriandamaskos8620]

Can you please do and explained video on: ‘The Doctor’ from squid games. Other then the main characters, he was one of the most interesting. He was the only person to work with the guards and in a way hide his plan from the front man. How did this happen? There’s so many questions around him! :) love your content.

[@theofficialmanbehindthesla1436]

Yea fr!

[@replicativeimpact1574]

Also generally the thing with the organ trade. Its a huge problem in Eastern Asia, adding another level of society critics to the show. But to me it seems like this is a licrative source of income to cover the costs and maybe also one of the reasons the participants get killed? And why they need a player who is a doctor if they could provide with their own?

[@lucasb42069]

@@replicativeimpact1574no, they don’t use the bodies as a cover for costs. The front man himself said, I don’t care wether you butcher them for parts or eat them, but you broke our biggest rule here which was equality for these players. The organization doesn’t care for the petty money the organs would bring in. Why would they have to hide the guards going to that room if it was authorized by the front man? Because it wasn’t.

[@Readysetgo2007]

But how could he give us more info than what's already presented in the tv series? He isn't the director/creator of the tv series. :P

[@epicmkp1036]

Episode 4 (Stick to the team) 14:07.. the lady on the intercom says “attention staff, the special game will begin shortly, will all *workers, soldiers* and *managers* make your way to your designated work stations” this means that in their world, the circles are called workers, the triangles are called soldiers and the squares are called managers.

[@Celticway1]

I do want to say that when lights out is going on, the announcer says for Workers (circles) solders (triangles) and managers (squares) to report to there designated location. So this means that hey are not all called soldiers.

[@raymondrumsey1097]

I think soldier refers to the Triangles

[@koboldmartian4063]

So I just watched an interview with HoYeon and she said (in regards to the red vs blue ddakji theory) that director based the colors off of the Korean fairy tale of Aka Manto. According to wikipedia he is a toilet spirit who offers you red or blue toilet paper and choosing either color will result in your death. The solution is to ignore the spirit and it will spare you. Maybe this is the parallel to the well dressed man. No matter what color you choose, you end up in the games, so the actual "right" answer is to not participate in the games. This seems redundant though as not participating means there is no story but I found that quite interesting.

[@CentralLocation4442]

For the first question, pay attention to the subtitles of when a guard speaks. It will say masked worker/soldier/manager. And as many people have said, circles are workers, triangles are soldiers, and squares are managers. So the Job Title of the guards who dependant on their shape. Edit: This is why when the guard who said "it's nothing a soldier dies," he is referring to himself and all other soldiers. For the song "Pink Soldiers," I don't know. Maybe the song is just referring to the triangles? Again I have no clue.

[@dudewheresmycar12ism]

Another question: How did the guards hide the tug of war message in the doctor’s egg?

[@freddytang2128]

I was thinking about that too 🤔 you can slip something into a pastry or something but how da hell do you put something into a hard boiled egg

[@Stopfollowingm3]

@@freddytang2128 h

[@stopplayingwiththefuckingi2054]

It’s possible they made a hole in the egg BEFORE they cooked it and slipped a small piece of paper in, then cooked it all with the paper in

[@NachitenRemix]

You make a little hole on the shell while it is still raw and place it in. Then, boil it, and cut the fraction of egg that escapes through the hole if it happens.

[@Leo.Petrakis]

That’s what I was thinking today when I watched it

[@SpammytheHedgehog]

Cho Sang-Woo didn't want his glasses to be destroyed.

[@Readysetgo2007]

He probably also aimed to get rid of some empathy (to become more successful in the games). If you can't see properly you also won't see the scared face before you kill someone. Makes me think of a Black mirror episode that you can apply to this theory. The little girl who got monitored by her mom.

[@weenoob1861]

The triangles are the soldiers the squares are the managers/super visor and the circles are the workers.

[@CZsWorld]

"Hi I'm Bryce A Brown-Janisse and welcome to the Death Count!"

[@presentelaw]

If the host paid the dead players when the survivors voted to terminate after red light green light, why was the money still there when they resumed?

[@tay_w09]

It says in the show, Squares are "Managers" Triangles are "Soilders" and Circles are "Workers", it says this over an announcement when it was talking abt the "special game" (fight night) the announcement voice says "All managers, soliders and workers..." and it kinda easy to figure out who is who.

[@sadiqshah6622]

theory how is the price money 45,600,000,000 every time someone dies money gets added 1)14 player never returned 2)player 1 was the host he never died 3)there are 456 players so the price money atomatically is 45,600,000,000 but shouldnt it be45,500,000,000 because 1 player wil never die the winner

[@IfUfindthisURlost]

I guess 2) wouldn't be an issue, as they would pay the money because they had to keep up the pretense, for the other players. As far as they are concerned he IS dead, so the they would expect the money to be added. 3) could be a bonus for simply surviving. 1) paid because, even though not dead, they were effectively 'Eliminated from the game'

[@cyndire]

If 14 workers didn't come back and are still alive, why was the prize amount for their share added? I thought it would add 100 million for every player eliminated. Also, why was the prize not 45.5 billion if only 455 people were eliminated or quit?

[@koreykujala2462]

I’ve been saying the same thing 😳

[@realitylapse]

Because of course they have been killed off outside. As we already know elimination adds to adding money at the cost of the player's death.

[@Readysetgo2007]

Just cause it's designed to have a winner of the 456 and they thought the winner should get all the money including the money that's designated to him. But I'm also confused about the 14 players. Feels weird to add their money if they're not dead.

[@luisettk4984]

I love the perspective about the glasses. Never thought of that!

[@Graenolf]

I feel like they took all this from that one Mr. Beast video

[@GoldenFlp]

The first one is Workers, soldiers and managers

[@thatdude8850]

I was starting to think I'm crazy

[@rsklinge]

The numbers on the clothing was probably how they used to track the players back before the chip technology was invented and they just kept the numbers style going as the years went on.

[@TheBigA]

In the archives it says Squid Archives yet the VIPs never heard of squid game before. This means it must be the first time squid game is played in recent years. Then why did the organization refer it as Squid Games if the game itself wasn’t used every year?

[@lars_huson]

Perhaps it was named after nr. 001's favourite game? Or maybe it was also in the finale of the first edition and they chose to bring it back because nr. 001 was participating himself this time? Since he runs the games, I assume he'd wanna play his favourite challenges. Maybe this edition was a mashup of all the favourite games from previous years?

[@brandonlux6507]

Easy solution. The VIP’s are always new and different people, not always the same ones.

[@nabilasay1402]

Pls make the explanation of the island and inside of it and more secret places in the show

[@policengp6135]

square gaurd is manager triangle gaurd is soldier circle gaurd is worker

[@Pengdl]

You missed the death where when the players are driven to the island the police officer kills a soldier and throws him off the boat!!!

[@jenniferfox7979]

i worner when the players are slepping and they go to the island how come they havent wroking up yet i mean its in the middle of the ocean how long dose that sleep gase evin last for

[@TheIgnoredGender]

2:16 The triangles are soldiers. The squares are MANAGERS.

[@suak0903]

Why didn't the VIPs immediately leave after one of them was held at gunpoint? Everything continues as if no such dangerous thing happened to them.

[@BryceEdwardBrown]

They just know he was knocked out. Maybe what happened to VIP number 4 has happened in the past

[@Rb701]

For where did sang woo’s glasses go I think when he entered in the squid game again he got his glasses taken off by the guards because since the see he’s record they know he went to Seoul university so they thought since he is smart he would advance with technology his glasses to help him win the games since he knows people can die.

[@spark.1209]

Who was driving the boat that carried the organs? It can't be a guard because they would be late for morning head count. It can't be on the black market because squid game is on a secret Island that nobody knows about, any body that that would go to pick up the organs wouldn't be able to find the island on any map so who in the world is driving the boat?

[@andrewt-258]

There was a discrepancy of number of remaining players after one of the games. I forgot what episode it was. Can you you look into that? Thanks

[@xxkitlzxx777]

I would love to see another video analyzing the Netflix teaser trailer. I saw a huge cat figure and want to know your take on it.. like what do you think it could mean for the next season.

[@DanielLol-7]

The circles are called workers, the triangles are called soldiers and the squares are called managers.

[@mahmoudfayad9080]

It’s 452 people who died not 451 cuz player 067 dad died on the way to south korea

[@Bountyhopper]

Only the triangle guys are soldiers, the circle guys are workers, and the square guys are managers

[@Lyndan]

What about all the gards wish you hanging before the marbles game?

[@SpammytheHedgehog]

Cho Sang-Woo became aware of his surroundings. That's why he didn't wear his glasses. Or the guards took them.

[@ExistingThing0128]

One player eliminated himself... and that player was number 069 👌

[@anders_x3]

I don't think the chips can tell wether a player is dead or not. Yes they are used to id the victim when the guards clean up but in that case some remain alive in the coffins, potentially for the organ harvesting.

[@jasoncountryman4733]

How much did it cost to do the squad game

[@Pixels14]

Squid game season 2 still not out

[@BryceEdwardBrown]

Can't wait!

[@darrennowell9662]

Another question why did the players have numbers instead of there name

[@louiscario6798]

How would an odd number of players play the six game if you got to that point? it seems the game is set up for two players. so I guess they could go player vs player but how would that work with an odd number of players? would one person automatically win a cut of the money?

[@AliyaMussina]

How do game organizers know what a person is up to and whereabouts?

[@naotohex]

5:16 that wouldnt even be the correct count even if you said that because you counted the killing of the dudes partner when they were out of the game. The partner was never one of the squid game competitors right?

[@joshuacox581]

What happen to all the contestants debt when they were eliminated?

[@mansoursiddiqi930]

I honestly think the theory that the 14 people that dont return die is kinda stupid, i mean il-nam himself said that all players made the choice to come play and its their choice if they wanna play the games or not, if that the case then the people who wanted to leave would die??? Honestly thats kinda stupid

[@EveryHeard]

Dude. I enjoy your videos, but please! Learn how to pronounce 성기훈. It's Gi-hOOn, not HUN. There is a completely different vowel for uh or oo, and it changes the meaning of a person's name. As you have seen when other players discuss their given names, people's parents put intention into the choice of each syllable of a child's name. So, please, pronounce the main character's name accurately.

I've been a huge fan of South Korean movies for almost 20 years, they make the best movies on the planet in every genre but comedy. Their TV production, though, has traditionally been a notch below in terms of budgets, talent, production value etc. Squid Game has some outstanding aspects, especially a great story and excellent set design but it suffers from poor casting, the male lead is miscast and overacting throughout the show, it's so bad at times it looks like the kind of overacting common in Asian comedies in the 1990's. With a better lead and with acting turned down a notch or two it could have been a contender.

[@blueyfilmzz]

Players eliminated Game 1 - 255 Returning - 187 Game 2 - 80 Lights Out - 27 Game 3 - 40 Game 4 - 28 Game 5 - 13 Game 6 - 1 Game 7 - 1

[@IfUfindthisURlost]

These numbers don't add up....... From 187 returnees, Game 2 (-80) = 107 left. Lights out (-27) = 80 left. Game 3 (-40) = 40 left. Game 4 (-28) = 12 left. So 13 can't be taken out in the next round.
