We Forgot How Intense These Games Are!!! - Squid Game Season 2 Eps 1 Reaction

[@jbearclowater]

Gong Yoo, the guy playing the recruiter, ad libbed some of his movements with the gun in that final scene with Gi-hun, including the moment where he puts the gun in his own mouth. It's amazing that he and Lee Jung-jae (Gi-hun) were able to make that scene as intense as some of the games scenes from season 1. Incredible acting from both of them.

[@dennist.8210]

It's also the first time Gong Yoo has played the villain! Crazy!

[@duckling4393]

No

[@Addy0302]

15:30 Every time Adam understands a theatre reference, a Jay gets his wings

[@tjnguyen8546]

How could you possibly forget how intense these are, Adam! You wept on the internet for that guy!!! (That betrayal is still one of the best things I've seen on your channel lol.)

[@thatscouttrooper]

The final scene in this episode is easily my favorite scene in the entire show, from the writing, to the acting, to the music (I already loved "Time to Say Goodbye", and I love the inclusion of it here), everything was perfect. Tbh, when I first watched this episode, I was a bit hesitant of the new vibe this season was giving off, but the ending to this episode showed me that they're still capable of giving us the old flavor of Season 1, and thus I fully accepted this new flavor Season 2 gives us. When I finished this episode for the first time, I audibly said, "We are so fucking back."

Season 2 didn’t disappoint. Loved it.

[@wuttatota148]

The reason the cop was diving is because remember there's an underwater entrance to the island that they used to transport organs they harvested. He's trying to look for that

[@Markiemedes]

The plot armor on Gi-hun is Vibranium 😅

[@pomni8696]

He would have survived even if he were shooting the last one 😂

[@bridgethaines7127]

The amazingness of the range of the actor playing the recruiter -- it's is the same actor that played the dad in Train To Busan.

[@GoofyGE3K]

Sad he's gone because the actor was amazing

[@dennist.8210]

It's the first time Gong Yoo has played the villain! He did a wonderful job!!

[@duckling4393]

No

[@annastickabutter4480]

Just in case you were worried that it couldn’t possibly be as intense as Season 1.

[@ZestonN]

My favorite part about this episode: The music choice for the Russian Roulette game is It's Time To Say Goodbye with Sarah Brightman and Andrea Bocelli. So Fitting ❤

[@AlexanderWandering]

Seeing these two watching Wicked would be hilarious. Jay knowing every single song and Adam having no clue what's going to happen next.

[@adriankerrison]

Something I love about the start of this season is that from the perspective of Gi-hun's crew, he is the weird billionaire who is paying them to torment themselves in this strange game of searching the subways. And Gi-hun doesn't play that game with them, he watches them play it. A very smart way of connecting him to Oh Il-nam and the VIPs in their disconnetion-from and use-of people struggling to get by. Obviously not to the same degree! But you could see where it starts from an personal obsession and a lot of money.

[@timujin]

When Adam cried during Season 1 Episode 6 of Squid Game "Gganbu" I had never cried SO MUCH during ANY reaction EVER! I know how bad something has to hit a grown man to make him cry so much that I was DEVASTATED along with him! Love these guys!

[@joshpartridge760]

I’ve been dying for these reactions to start 🎉

[@severocamacho4287]

11:08. "Straight Up Carb Stomping" was a SOLID joke from Jay! I had to pause the video for a second. Was laughing so hard!

[@cescoyne]

Adam, in the most stressed out voice imaginable: We are so back!

[@Ladmia]

That final scene deserves a standing ovation alone. Just amazing work by both actors.

[@duckling4393]

No

[@duggs4456]

I''m not even a gambler in any way, I'm actually almost pathologically risk averse, but I fully understand taking the scratcher over the bread. If you're homeless, there are ways of getting food. And if you take the one measly piece of bread, that's going to last you maybe a few hours, and at the end you'll still be homeless and hungry again. If you take the ticket you're almost certainly not going to win anything, but there's a minuscule chance you can win life changing money.

[@wuttatota148]

It's like a comparison with the games where you either choose to leave (guaranteed to survive for another day) or continue playing (extremely small chance of getting a lot of money). Most people still choose to continue playing like last season.

[@remitruman6951]

You guys are gonna be in for this season! Just wait haha

[@lplt]

the recruiter became tied for my fave character after this episode, frontman got competition

[@jameshenry1715]

What took you sooo Long Peach's, I have been waiting for you 😂😂😂

[@annastickabutter4480]

I stopped watching the new Skeleton Crew episode so that I could watch this with you. I am full of terrified excitement. Skid Game!!!!!

[@erikhanson1162]

If you stop doing everything suddenly to watch Skid Game, do you leave Skid Marks?

[@lacondrathompson1747]

Happy New Year Jay and Adam🎉🎉

[@ned8575]

Glad you guys coming back with S2....warm welcome from korea

[@user-ct4od1df4s]

You guys should definitely check out Creature Commandos. It's pretty good 👍

[@stepriver8877]

Ngl, 1000% agree

[@kiwiparfaits]

yes!!! so excited. my mom and i just finished watching last night (we were strong and only watched one a day lol)

[@klast5411]

너희는 오징어게임 시즌1 6화때의 리액션은 전설 그 자체였다 왜이렇게 이번엔 늦은건가?ㅠ 반갑다.~♥

[@제크-b8h]

꺄 ~~ 드디어 ❤😭

[@clarissa182]

I loved this episode. I am so happy Gong Yoo got to shine like he did (with his fine self...lol). It kind of mad me sad he's gone because he was truly amazing.

[@baddealdude807]

never seen a man more enjoy his job

[@clarissa182]

I thought the lights being off at a full hotel was a well known thing until you guys said is that a thing there. Did anyone else know this before hand? Also, in regards to Adam saying "What do you expect, it's a love hotel", I literally saw a girl do a video yesterday who was in a rush to find a hotel room and unknowingly got a room at a love hotel. She didn't get suspicious until she noticed the mood lighting board and provisions at the head of the bed. The room though, was FABULOUS! It was so luxe. I even looked up the reviews and families were literally booking to stay there. I just thought that was so funny when you mentioned it.

[@IililiilIiIliiilliIil]

Missed you guys reacting to the new season of Squid game!

[@That_Guy_Nee]

My headcannon is that the scene in the park wasn't in the script, it's just what the actor does with his thursday afternoons.

[@smb0866]

I watched the first season but I really wasn’t in the mode to watch the second season. Instead I’ve decided to just catch your review on KZbin so I can at least get the gist of the second season. Thanks for giving me a reason to at least get an overview of second season so I know what everyone else is talking about.

[@hypertwink]

The Recruiter got Uno Reversed 😂

[@SandraMorris51]

This particular episode was so tense.... but some really amazing characters this season I promise you will get attached to!

[@kiwiparfaits]

the characters are so good, to be expected after s1! I've definitely got a new favorite coming out of s2.

[@1893shanice]

I also believed S2 was not necessary and so I set my bar down to avoid getting disappointed but it is great and I love the 1st episode!

[@dennist.8210]

*clapping* ~ Talking bout the Skid Game...Skid Game Gurllll...PLAYSTATION CONTROLLER! ~

[@lucianoa31]

Great Reaction 😊

[@assinethlago6898]

Yay! You guys are here! #squidgame2reaction

[@ZJMiller488]

SKID GAME!

[@Hustlemandalorian]

I have only seen the recent movie version of west side story once and I didn’t remember the character’s names but when he was climbing up the building and Jay said “Maria!” I also immediately said “I bet that’s a west side story reference Jay is making” 😂, so Jay I would also like $1,000 please.

[@mirahdead66]

SECRET LEVEL!!!!????!!!!?????!!!! pweaase ♥

[@LordGavial1138]

LFG !!! 🎉❤

[@needfood3052]

FINALLY! 🙏🏾

[@sumseq]

Where is Skeleton Crew? I was really looking forward to your reactions to the last two episodes!

[@luumas]

Should be out this weekend per their community post!

[@Sorozatfuggoseg]

hope did not use the english CC subtitles, that's text version of the dub which is terrible incorrect translations 😂

[@qrzt2000]

YIPPEEEEEEEEEEE

[@peterk3863]

They are back! but too short.

[@taylorgant1209]

Yes, the acting is superb and you miss it a lot in English

[@BadBunnie8]

나는 당신들을 기다리고 있었고 당연히 당신들도 늙었고 오징어개임도 똑같이 늙었습니다 시즌3은 여름전에 끝나요 당신들을 봐서 좋아여 ❤
