Squid Game 06 GGANBU PT.2 reaction

Ali & Sangwoo - Betrayal Sebyeok & Jiyoung - Sacrifice Gihun & Ilnam - Forgiveness Deoksu & 278 - Fairplay

[@ItsDefOver9000]

When you think about it, its pretty crazy how quickly Ji-yeong ingratiated herself to us viewers, to the point that I felt equal heartbreak for her sacrifice/death as that of Ali's and Il-Nam's. I mean...we were only introduced to her a couple episodes ago and in fact, the only episode in which she has significant speaking lines is this one. Speaks volumes to the acting ability of that actress.

[@mindthegap1669]

Indeed, top class acting ability.

[@MrSporkster]

How can you NOT like Ji-yeong? She's awesome! She's practically best girl!

[@kyuujinreacts]

We didn't like her first impression, but this episode she grew on us real quick!!

[@Department_of_Justice]

It's natural to be angry at Sang Woo, but he's the only one that understood the game. Win or die. It's a lesson in life really. Ethics are a luxury in a survival situation.

[@markwebster7435]

True, and none of us could say what we would choose to do until you were in such a situation.

[@jamesliggins891]

uh, I don't know if "win or die" is exactly a life lesson relevant to most of us today, lol

[@mansoo2256]

The old man saying " I remember my name now....." really makes me cry..😢😢😢😢

[@jackhsu3458]

The most heart wrenching episode of the year, especially their last words. Ali: "Sang-woo? Where are you?" (He still came back to the spot they promised even at the end) Ji-yeong: "Thank you for playing with me...!" 001: "I remember my name, Oh Il-nam."

[@iskeypxx]

what makes the situation worse with ali, is that in an earlier episode when sangwoo insisted that ali should stop calling him "mister". ali started calling him "hyung" which is basically "big bro". so before ali died, he was like a lost child who kept calling out "big bro".

[@KenFromchicago]

Yeah, I've seen videos that explained that in Korean, hyung was someone you really trusted, like a trusted mentor who looked out for you. For a hyung to backstab your is like the lowest of the low.

[@SouthPaw718]

When "Don't hate the player, hate the game" hit in a different way.

[@yafriendceko]

it's interesting how the supposedly bad gangster guy won the game fair and square, while the supposedly good guys (sang woo and gi hun) winning the game by cheating and manipulating their partners/opponents.

[@Drummer4President]

He even had the smarts to ask for a change of game when he was losing. Something either of the others could have done instead. And Saebyeok getting angry about not winning fairly and demanding a Jiyeong take another throw 🥺 SangWoo would never lol

[@ps3udologue]

Oh jesus, I didn't even think about that. That's such great writing. Like they're supposed to be the good guys, but they were just so concerned about staying alive that they never did the fair thing, which was play the game.

[@HeavyArmsz]

good point didn't think about that

[@ignatiuschua5268]

Well, the bad guy did not have the opportunity (dementia) nor the intelligence to cheat his partner. The two other guys were given the opportunity to do so. In a game of life and death, it is human nature to self preservate. It will be unrealistic otherwise.

[@yafriendceko]

@@ignatiuschua5268 "it will be unrealistic otherwise." oh well i guess jiyoung character was unrealistic 🤷🏾‍♂️

알리가 총에 맞는 순간, 상우는 양심이 자신의 몸을 흔드는 것을 느끼죠. 움찔하거든요. 즉 자신의 행위가 피할 수 없는 상황이라는걸 알고 있었고, 자신을 믿어주던 알리를 죽게 만든 것에 대해 괴로운 감정을 가지고 있어요. 게임을 할 때마다 그 죄책감을 점점 극복하게 되죠. 기훈은 죽어가는 상대에 대한 연민을 끝까지 가지고 있고요.

[@pencil6965]

yes! your take on the characters, esp Ali and sang woo, is EXACTLY how I saw it too

[@bgb411]

I cried the moment I realized what was gonna happen to Ali and just didn’t stop the rest of the episode.

[@주모감자조림에밥두공]

Sae-byeok means " Dawn " in Korean . Thank you for good reaction !

[@calumteine2008]

Such a great episode. I's been nice seeing it through with you.

[@Sabre-Lait]

The more I think about it, the more I find it hard to truly despise Sang-woo. Here he's put in this situation where he can either be nice and die or act like an asshole and survive, as opposed to Gi Hun who gets it easy in comparison. They both have to trick their opponent to win, but Gi Hun's opponents is an old man who will die soon anyway and ends up giving him his blessing, so he can kill him and still feel like he didn't do something that bad (and we, viewers, can easily find excuses for him). Meanwhile Sang-woo just has to accept that he has to trick a kind young man if he wants to survive. As much as I like Gi Hun for having so much integrity, he didn't have to face as big a dilemma as Sang-woo here.

[@jamesliggins891]

This is such a hard episode. I cried like so hard and then didn't want to finish the show lol. I did but didn't want to for a minute. Lol

[@adrianbermudez7005]

I just can't hate sang-woo, even do what he did to win was awful, in that circunstances I would've done something similar, I mean he doesn't enjoy doing it, he doesn't enjoy manipulating Alli, he didn't wanted him to die, but is him or Alli and he needs to choose and he chose himself as almost everybody would in that circunstances, and I don't blame him for that. I would hate him, if he enjoyed doing what he did, but he doesn't, he just does what needs to be done, he is not an awful person, but the situation he is in makes him do awful stuff in order to survive. In this situation I believe the ends justify the means.

[@ksc3229]

The red hat woman is so beautiful.^^ Do not cry

[@emberfrost8322]

Thank you ☺️

[@risuficus]

And from this point I started hating Sang-Woo. Ali was my favourite character TT^TT

[@homielander5924]

I think at the time we all hated sang woo, but realistically we all would have done the same thing

[@kimjbrandon]

Thank you for your reaction! It was so cool!

[@kyuujinreacts]

Thank you x3

[@jarvisfowlkes3200]

Love you guys I was an emotional reek to

[@METALSCAVENGER78]

A thing i liked about this episode is that although both Gi-hun and Sang-woo cheated to win over their partners, and their actions are comparable in that sense, their characters are in fact totally different.San-Woo is a cold and calculated player who hardly feels any remorse for Ali's demise, whether Gi-Hun cries a river for the old man's demise.

[@loulinkario3627]

It also really hurt Sang-woo to betray Ali, don't think he enjoyed tricking his friend

[@METALSCAVENGER78]

@@loulinkario3627 It hurt him, but his feelings are quickly overshadowed about his end-game, to be the final winner.Deeply he knows what he is doing is very wrong morally, but he compensates by convincing himself that his mission is what matters the most, so he ultimately removes the guilt from his conscience

[@loulinkario3627]

@@METALSCAVENGER78 yeah but he had so much guilt that he killed himself at the end He was just trying to stay alive

[@METALSCAVENGER78]

@@loulinkario3627 True, but it was mainly because he went against his childhood friend who got the best out of him by not only sparing his life, but demanding to both put an end to the game.he finally understood that if ones deserves more to win and stay alive, that's his friend because he showed a moral compass from start ill the end which he on the other hand throw it away from early on, but subconsciously was there remaining hidden until it emerged at the end, when he went too far against his friend

[@narnia5404]

I personally didnt like the way they made the betrayal scene for Ali. Ali’s character deserved better than that

[@kyuujinreacts]

Oh he definitely deserved better D: unfortunately, he was surrounded by people willing to destroy him to win :/

[@ignatiuschua5268]

Why do everyone said that Ali is kind and pure? Why do everyone think Ali trusted SW fully? Under no circumstances did we see Ali display any kindness. Politeness yes, kindness no. Politeness is a typical trait of low skill foreign workers behaved towards the locals. Ali might have trusted SW and he might not have. You will say he trusted SW because he accepted SW proposal. Ali had no choice but to accept. If SW refused to gamble away his last marble, SW would just not play anymore and both will die. SW gave Ali a lifeline by promising that he will let Ali have his last marble when he comes back from the survey. PS: SW can't look Ali in the eyes simply because Ali would have disputed and the 19 marbles will be returned to him. By the way, Ali getting into this life and death game when he need not, gives me bad vibes. It is like a choice of money (lots of it) vs family. He chose money which is silly because who can guarantee that they will pay off the prize money if you win. SW on the other hand, wanted to commit suicide. That meant that he takes this Squid Game seriously.

[@salvatoremaximus6754]

Ali saved Gihun life, he grabbed Gihun sleeves and risking his life. If you don't consider it a kindness, you are a cold hearted sociopath

[@ignatiuschua5268]

@@salvatoremaximus6754 No, you are the weird one. One moment of bravado doesn't meant that you are honest and kind. If I am in Ali's position, I would try my best to make friends since I am a foreigner.
