Really enjoyed your reaction! I'll be back for the finale. But please watch Kingdom (South Korean). I'm certain that you'll enjoy it!

[@JD-sh5dt]

Kingdom is also an epic Korean series on Netflix. I hope you guys watch and react to it.

[@JD-sh5dt]

The front man is actually a top star in Korea so it's kind of a big thing to see him playing it. It surely is a big reveal for those who know him.

[@ykim0416]

The difference between Gi-Hun and Sangwoo's acts of kindness comes from genuine good heartedness and elitism. Gi-Hun giving the stray cat or taking the time while running away to pick up the girl's coffee from the ground is from a genuine kind heart. Sangwoo giving Ali some money for the bus and the like is an act stemming from "because I'm better than you I'm going to take care of you". There is a patronizing facet to his generosity.

[@sanaa107]

it's funny because some people hate Ali and think he was stupid to trust Sangwoo, but I see no difference here with Saebyeok. They think Ali's kindness is stupid, while they praise Saebyeok for stopping Gi Hun lmao.

[@enicole1203]

Also at that point, Sangwoo had nothing to lose by helping Ali but he gained a moment of gratitude. He's 6 billion in debt and was about to go home and kill himself, so handing Ali a few bucks for the bus was no sacrifice at all to him

[@IIIISai]

@@sanaa107 bro nobody praises her For stopping gi hun, and secondly she was dying anyways, and she saved gi hun from getting his hands dirty, Ali just got tricked and did the dumbest thing, there's a difference, Sae didn't do anything stupid

[@IIIISai]

@@enicole1203 yea

[@ranniwolves]

i agree that it comes from different places, but it was confirmed by the director it’s less from elitism and more a sense of “duty”

[@lunalxs]

I gotta say y'all are so adorable for calling 'Woo' and 'Gi' 😂❤️

[@YaBoyRockLee]

😂

[@VegaSlides]

I like the idea that Sangwoo really was sleeping at that moment, and Gi-hun listening to Sae-byeok's plea for him to remain a good person ultimately caused her death. Choosing between corrupting himself or not, someone died by Gi-hun's choice either way. It also makes it even more messed up because if Sangwoo was asleep that means he woke up as soon as Gi-hun was screaming for the people to help and his FIRST instinct is to go and kill. No matter what though it was an amazing episode with excellent writing.

[@j.l.5836]

how do we feel about sae byeok essentially dying thanks to winning her last game though? this is the one thing I did not enjoy about this show. I felt that her character deserved a more impactful death than "I won a game, and my reward was being given an injury that is basically a death sentence". I don't find the glass shattering to make much sense or be any fair. anyone have thoughts on this?

[@Burningdark]

@@j.l.5836 I felt the same way. They made such a big deal about maintaining the fairness between the players and having them ultimately be responsible for their fates in the game, but the exploding glass doesn't fit that goal at all. They risk blinding or otherwise seriously injuring (in this case fatally) their finalists for some cheap theatrics. Even if Sae-byeok had made it to the final game in that condition, it wouldn't be a fair or entertaining match because she would be insurmountably weaker than her opponent. That sequence just feels very poorly written in an otherwise excellent story.

[@j.l.5836]

@@Burningdark for sure. I get that they wanted to set up this whole "sae byeok and gi hun are going to vote to quit the game" scheme but imo that wouldn't beat a more straightforward, devastating death. as you said, sang woo finishing her didn't really have much impact since she was already practically dead

[@daisychong3488]

@@Burningdark The 'fairness' of the game isn't for the players' benefit, it's for the VIPs. If a horse race is rigged, then that's not fair (hence, the Front Man making an example of the group that was doing organ harvesting). However, when a VIP commented about how 'boring' the game is after one of the contestants used his 30 years of experience working in a glass factory to differentiate glass under light, they powered down the light so it became impossible unless by sound. Basically, the 'fairness' of the game is for entertainment only, and for the betting of the contestants themselves. It would be a sure win for the VIPs (and thus boring) if all 4 remaining horses are to survive, winning the game. By contrast, the glass exploding is to throw in another random liability (and up the odds) to the remaining players. With the girl wounded, the odds against her is higher. But if she wins, whoever bet on her is going to win a lot.

[@sevisavory]

@@Burningdark the glass exploding part is if players are still in the glass so if they are, they will fall.

[@cocoaicci_]

I feel like Sangwoo has some sort of Superiority complex. Even on the outside world, despite having debt (in fact he has the most debt out of all the other players) and being just as poor as Gi, he was always dressed in a suit, like he was trying to come across as a business man while Gi was constantly dressed in casual clothing just like every other player on the outside world. He gave Ali money for the bus and brushed it off like it wasn't a big deal despite him also having barely any money, but then decided to throw that in Ali's face in episode 6 'Gganbu'.

[@changedcj007]

That's actually confirmed in a interview😁

[@ranniwolves]

it’s less of a superiority complex and more of a sense of duty, at leas that’s what i got from the interview

[@DeeVee7162]

Also I think the reason Sangwoo went after Saebyeok (because he wouldn’t know she was gravely injured until he was standing over her) is because she’s unpredictable to him, a wild card. He knows Gihun, has known him since they were children playing these same games. He knows his movements, knows how to get into his mind and manipulate him. If he had to go 1 v 1 with anyone he would rather it be Gihun than someone who he doesn’t know and can’t predict how they would move.

[@daniaaal]

I think Sangwoo knew she was injured the moment Gihun ran to the door to get help. I think he was faking his sleep and watching both of them the entire time. I think it didnt matter at that point that saebyok was someone whom he doesnt know well; we know well by now that sangwoo would do everything to eliminate as many people as possible with the least effort. Edit: he also states another reason in the next episode which i wont spoil

[@12times21]

I think it was because he wanted to finish the game and the two of them could’ve stopped it if there was a vote. I also think he was awake and heard that they promised to take care of each other’s families if they won. He knew Gihun would be more likely to feel guilty if he won over him as well and would look after his mom because he knows her so he put his faith in that.

[@ykim0416]

It's possible. But I think it is far more likely because Sangwoo considers Gi far beneath him -- not a challenge at all. Whereas as you said, Saebyeok could be dangerous even when wounded.

[@panashe5268]

@@daniaaal I don’t think it’s ever that deep, he fell asleep, woke up when he heard dude yelling, heard that she was injured, went to go confirm for himself and took advantage and killed her. I think it’s that simple. You guys are always trying to over explain simple plot lines, not everything has a deeper meaning behind it.

[@daniaaal]

@@panashe5268 that is plausible, but the show intentionally has a lot of easter eggs along the way, from how they foreshadowed character deaths in ep 2, to how the old man’s strange happy behaviour was explained by the reveal of him in the last episode. Sang Woo was always on the hunt to take advantage of people discreetly from the moment he returned to the game. It’s not beyond logic to think that he could’ve faked his own sleep as well. Plus, if you count the duration of Gi Hun banging the door and the guards coming in to collect her body, it’s not that much seconds. Thus, it would be more logical that from the very moment Gi Hun went to the door, Sangwoo was already on the way to kill her. So no, because the Squid Game respects audiences who think deep and figure out clues, it’s possible either he was genuinely asleep or if he was faking it. Either way, brilliant storytelling from even that scene depicting uncertainty.

[@lovely1641]

What I love about Gi hun is he's this nice, humble, happy-go-lucky guy until it's time to speak up and then he can be cutthroat. He humbled Sangwoo real quick

[@bubblegum6817406]

As for why he gave Ali the ticket...the actor and director did an interview and they said he had a noblesse oblige attitude. He thought he was above Ali because he was Korean citizen and not an immigrant so even though he was broke, he gave Ali money because to him, it's his duty to help those less fortunate.

[@lady_raineidv9297]

Ohhh. Wait, idk if that's a good thing or a bad thing. 😭😭 He has superiority complex but at least he think he should help lol

[@jas8288]

@@lady_raineidv9297 its neither good or bad things, simply the idea that "noble" people have obligations

[@YourMajesty143]

It's less about true "nobility", but rather a performative act of one's *appearance* of nobility. It ties to the same mentality as the wealthy creators of the game who claimed they wanted to use their money to "help" the less fortunate. But obviously this was just a performance of "fairness" & charity. The reality is the game was simply about rich people being bored and wanting to lord their money & power over the inferior class. Charity from the upper class isn't altruistic, it's an exercise of flaunting their "generosity". It's often a self-absorbed method of getting a hospital ward named after them or gaining access to a prestigious university for their child or getting the key to a city or having a photo-op in the newspaper, etc. Also, charity allows the rich to get tax breaks. So anytime you see a wealthy person just giving away cash or writing a check, ask them when they've actually volunteered their time to a cause, instead of just throwing money at a problem to make it go away.

[@bubblegum6817406]

@@YourMajesty143 Yes and no. I don't think he did it out of the pureness of his heart but a sense of superiority. The director and actor said in an interview it was an act of noblesse oblige and it directly tied in with Korean views of immigrants. Do Koreans get tax breaks for charities and non-profits? I know they do in the US

[@TimothyGod]

The part that absolutely blew me away in this episode was when the detective was sending the videos on his phone he immediately left. I immediately yelled out to my girlfriend he's a fucking idiot they're not going to send he has to wait and sit there until the video send I do this mistake all the time. Then literally later he goes back and resend the video and I'm like holy shit they actually took that into account I thought they were just going to bullshit it and send it anyway but that was insane intention to detail

i like to think that sangwoo thinks that he's above all of them and that's why he gives ali the money. he may be in debt and broke, just like ali, but he still gives him money for the bus fare is because he needs to keep up the appearance of an 'elite'.

[@zo81677]

EXACTLY IT LETS SANGWOO FEEL LIKE HE HAS THE POWER IN THE SITUATION WITH ALI

[@lovely1641]

Not really, we see moments throughout where Sangwoo has been kind and you can kind of attribute it to a decent upbringing, but Sangwoo seems to be one of those people where if it doesn't HURT him then he'll help you. Just like with Gi where he cancelled his mother's insurance to gamble. Gi has a good heart and he'd never kill another person or hurt them on purpose it's just that gambling creates a weird humane blindspot for him and he puts his values to the side for a moment.

[@jas8288]

[@imanafandy6607]

Not really, I think that he's just actually good, he did all of in the squid game only to survive

[@ma.2089]

@@jas8288 thing is, he can help others but he won’t do it to his own destruction. Which is fine, it’s a death game. But as he got to the end, he got too competitive and after having to kill Ali, went full in on killing others cuz he knew he couldn’t go back

[@RavenStillBeguiling]

Sae-byeok was dying and the only way to save her was to stop the game. If she and Gi-hun both voted to do so, it would be all over for Sang-woo. He wasn't about to let that happen.

[@lady_raineidv9297]

I wonder, if they _did_ stop the game, would they heal Saebyeok first before sending them away?

[@raysofrosie]

holy shit i didnt even realize- broo youre on a whole other level of IQ wtf

[@Cowgirlkatelynn]

I won't lie to you sang-woo most likely wasn't thinking that at all and I know for a fact that Sae wouldn't have voted to leave, especially since she knew he was dying.

[@thysens]

@@Cowgirlkatelynn Preventing a vote was most definitely a part of Sang-Woo's consideration - he admits such, albeit that there are likely other reasons. I do agree that Sae-Byeok might be hesitant to give up the money, but I wouldn't 100% count it out because she does say "I want to go home". By far though, Gi-Hun was the mostly likely to end the game to save her.

[@Cowgirlkatelynn]

@@thysens maybe but even if sang-woo didn't slice her throat it was obvious that she was about to die within minutes and it seems like they weren't planning on coming in there until she died anyways so even if someone wanted to vote it wouldn't have been possible because she would be dead and just two people can't vote.

[@cyburia]

omgggg i just got finished watching ep 7's reaction vid.. i found yall last week and i've been hooked ever since... burgundy shirt guy is so funny istg

[@gyjlover]

I watched the actor for sangwoo say that scene was very important in establishing how he still sees himself to be better than the others despite the similarity of their situations and gi hun calling him out in the beginning of this episode really breaks that notion to pieces. "if you're so much better wtf you here?" up till almost the end, sangwoo believed that taking everyone down would make him the winner, while gi hun believed that getting that far was thanks to everyone who lost. Two very understandable stances, but it is much easier to let go of your morality than hold onto it.

[@itsme_justjenny]

I double gasped at the Front Man reveal because the actor is Lee Byung Hun, he is a superstar in Korea. It's like equivalent to revealing Leonardo De Caprio as the front man. He is also from my favorite Korean series Mr. Sunshine. Theres another superstar of course the "recruiter" who slapped the main actor is Gong Yoo of Train to Busan film.

[@BJBee]

Mr Sunshine is AMAZING. So is Flower of Evil. Korea is better at everything.

[@ryanrrr42]

You guys should also consider that each of them are on a completely different level of tired. I see what you are both saying when you subconsciously make sure not to drop something in your sleep, but imagine the same situation but you are in DEEP sleep. None of them have had descent sleep for days so if one of them falls asleep at this point, I think it would be almost like blackout drunk kind of sleep where only something crazy or extreme will wake you up (Gi-Hun's yelling)

[@redash22]

sang-woo didn't give Ali the money for the bus out of the goodness of his heart but because he looks down on people like Ali. he has an elitist attitude and even if he is struggling himself, in his eyes, he's still better than Ali. he has probably looked down on gi-hun all their lives. this is how the actor who played sang-woo explained why his character would do that one "good deed" for Ali because sang-woo is not supposed to be a good person.

[@khoado123]

Sangwoo didn't kill her because he thought she was a threat. She would have been the strongest opponent if she was healthy but since she was badly injured, he only wanted to kill her to prevent from being out voted to end the game. She said she wanted to go home now and Gihun would have definitely voted to go home.

[@aeh5109]

The fact that Ji-yeong sacrificed herself for Sae and she still died 🥺

[@Sunset553]

She was capable of winning, but she hit a glass ceiling. The women were at a disadvantage because there were no girl games. I think there was only so far the women could get. That’s my take if it’s social commentary

[@euraziah]

let’s not forget, Sangwoo never knew the next game. The doctor just didn’t have his glasses on so they looked alike.

The detective is his baby brother so I’m not surprised he let him go. I am surprised you guys haven’t seen GI Joe though because I recognize him as soon as the mask came off. I was screaming.

[@TheSambellz]

(Please someone correct me if im wrong on this). In korea, age is very VERY important, the person who is older has to be obeyed, respected and listened to practically without question. It doesnt matter if its just by a day, you are older? You go first. Men and women have different ways to call those older than them with respect, between men, those who are younger and are close to the older one can call them "hyung". Is a word of respect and closeness, even friendship and trust. Thats why Ali smiled and bowed when Sang-Woo allowed him to call him that way. (To avoid confusion, or having to delve into detail, i get why netfilx doesnt add it to the subtitles). So. Something i find truly sad but telling, between Sang-woo and Gi-hun, is how after everything, after all the pain and loss and doubt or betray, Sang-woo still calls Gi-Hun "hyung". Even while mad, screaming and desperate, after what Gi-hun told him to his face; Sang-Woo screams at him, pleading "Gi-hun hyung!" Letting us see how, under all that desperate attitude and willingness to do ANYTHING to get that money; Gi-hun is still someone he respects deeply and someone he fears comfronting.

[@salviadavis9091]

I gotta say, all the main players died the same way they came in the game. Guess who I’m talking about… one died from taking something, one died from falling, one died from a knife to the throat and one died from being wet. It was so trippy

Hello, I have some recommendations for all of you who are not into the standard “cute romance Korean dramas" and loved squid game. All of them are thriller/horror themed. - Kingdom (about a zombie outbreak in the Han Dynastie) - Strangers from Hell (About a weird cheap apartment where weird people live. Ah and some of them are serial killers lol) - The Guest (About demons possessing people) - Search (2020) (About an accident that happened in the demilitarized zone (DMZ)…something dangerous (supernatural?) is hiding there) - Vincenzo (a dark action comedy about an intalian mafia boss who comes back to korea) - Sweet Home (There are monsters…and people closed in an apartment block) - VOICE (Korean version!! About a (hot) serial killer and a police woman who can hear better than most people)

[@KayKay-l2t]

Yep those pictures have been on the wall the whole time. Yes, you got it right there, Cho Sang-woo is not helping anyone unless it is beneficial to him - many people if they are honest put in that position would probably surprise themselves that they would behave the same way if their life was on the line. Maybe he gave Ali the money to get on the bus because deep down there is some empathy there. Felt so bad for Kang Sae-byeok, I thought she was cut and couldn't work out at first why she was walking to slow, when I saw that blood at first after the glass shattered and the 3 of them started walking I said to my daughter whose hurt, someone's bleeding badly, maybe it's all of them as they all got a little cut from the glass, but thought Cho Sang-woo only got a little cut to the face, then when I saw what was in her in that bathroom, I knew it was over for her as she'd bleed to death if she didn't die in the next game because these people behind the game aren't going to offer her help or assistance. Then Cho Sang-woo pulled a dirty and killed her. Like you guys I thought he was acting falling asleep dropping the knife and expected him to stab my man Seong Gi-Hun when his back was turned, but then that twist happened and he killed the girl instead. She's done amazing though considering she's a model and this was her first film EVER, I would never have thought it, thought she was a seasoned actor. Once again, great reaction guys.

Unpopular opinion but ppl keep saying Sangwoo is selfish. But lets face it, Gihun is just as selfish if not more. Yea Sangwoo got Ali killed, but so did Gihun, he cheated the oldman and pretty much got him killed too. Reflect back to episode 1 and 2, Gihun pretty much steals from his mother to gamble. Cancelled his mothers insurance for his own benefits. Abandon his wife and daugther and even borrowed money from loan sharks. How is all that not selfish? Sometimes you dont have to use the knife on someone to be selfish. I dont want to spoil for episode 9, but after watching that, Gihun is way more selfish than Songwoo. Just think about it.

[@YaBoyRockLee]

Gi has charisma. He shows remorse. That’s the fundamental reason why both selfish characters are perceived different. I criticize Gi in ep 1 -2 and 9 lol. He’s cringe when dealing with real life. But in the game he’s easy to feel for.

I was waitinnnnggfggg for this for hours yo

[@admalfoy]

This man did not just say Sara jay 😂🤣💀

[@tanyakrotowa]

Great reaction as always!

[@enicole1203]

In all honesty, I think Sangwoo tried not to hurt his friend, but if it came to him or his friend he'd save himself. Like in the cookie game, he wanted to warn him. In the choose partners game, he chose Ali, yes probably because he thought Ali was a stronger partner than Gi-hun but also I think in case he had to face off, he'd rather not have to hurt his old friend. He's smart enough to have guessed that was a possibility. I think he could have attacked either one when Gi-hun was banging on the door but he chose the girl because he really doesn't want to hurt his friend. He WILL, if it comes down to him or me. But I think he's trying every way to avoid it.

[@adjjal]

No. He killed her because she was a weak and easy victim. He was a coward who only thought about himself.

[@adjjal]

He wouldn't have lost anything by telling Gi-hun to pick the triangle for example

[@adjjal]

He was jst a villan who had given up on good in the world so he started spreading evil instead

[@Sunset553]

Educated people fight for immigrants, up until their own interests are threatened. I saw the Sangwoo vs Ali as a definite class difference.

[@Miraculin]

can't wait to see episode 9 reaction

[@bladercomedy]

He probably did fake falling asleep but a basic theory he was sleep but when dude banging on the wall woke him up and went for the easy kill since he heard she's dying. Excuse: she was gonna die anyway

[@Wandrative]

Prize money is 45.6 billion won, his debt was 6 billion won. In dollars its 45.6 million, debt 6 million.

[@vickylikesthis]

45.6 Billion won ~ 38 million USD

[@Wandrative]

@@vickylikesthis That kinda fluctuates from time to time, but yeah 1$ was somewhere between 900 won to 1250 won within the last two decades.

nah, he's not a villain. he's the best player here

[@hvfxzvh]

Love your contents & commentary on squid game series. 1 more episode to go! 🥲 Hope you guys do review on Kingdom series as well 🥲🥲

[@rnaefinx]

anyone know why this episode was super super short?...

[@Iejir_Isk]

I appreciate Sun-Wu doing what he can to win. He 100% had to kill her.

[@beaharpst]

Dude im serious. Youre the best reactors here.

[@gamegame1035]

I can't wait for the final you guys

[@sophiaanuar7334]

Gotta a strong feeling the cop is still alive , maybe on season 2.... maybe

[@WazirinJosnEnvirons]

From my assessment Sungwoo is the only player that understood the assignment for the squid game..haahaha and that about $40Million!!!! naa am straight facilitating her spiritual journey 1

[@euraziah]

also…most likely the cop will survive. Front Man is a great shot. Could’ve shot him anywhere else. He fell into the ocean and most likely survive i think

[@stephaniebintang2955]

Yeah if I'm not mistaken sangwoo's debt is 6 billion and the prize is 45,6 billion. So his debt is lower

[@FNIGTOABN]

I stand by his action here if he didn't kill her the other two could have had a majority vote to stop the game and no one would have won money. She wouldn't have survived the trip to the hospital anyway and it would have made all those other people die for nothing.

[@rngnakka9850]

I want Maserati and Sarah Jay 😩 I See your preferences there big man likes big things 🤣

[@euphoria2737]

Prize is 45.6 billion won and sangwoo owed 6 billion won

[@miacoleman2899]

I think the cop I still alive he was shot in the shoulder he should be able to swim with one arm

[@tazm2480]

Killed my girl man she was awesome

[@Regless0000]

So for the bit on why he gave Ali money for the bus I figure in a sane world Sanwoo is not a bad person. But he acts with his head not his heart. If something bothers him or if he feels bad, it doesn't matter. He'll shut that emotion out because in the end he can't reason out not making the smart move. Very different from Gi whose is emotional at all times and doesn't think ahead. We've seen Gi do many shady acts at this point but his motivation always stems his heart not his head.

When you're done with Squid game please do Alice in borderland. Also I enjoy these Squid game reaction can't wait for the last one🙂

[@comfortco1]

Woo was the best character. He reminded me of lelouch since he plays dirty and is cunning af. Y’all wanna be soft from a viewers perspective, but gi-hun only got that far cause he’s the mc cause otherwise he was way too nice 🤷🏽‍♂️.

[@carmelcity9527]

Agreed. There is a reason people keep discussing or arguing about him the most. He’s a well rounded character and even though he does heinous things, we understand why because that was shown to us early on. Love him or hate him he’s one of the most interesting characters. I can hate that he betrayed Ali because Ali was so nice and didn’t deserve that, but I can also acknowledge Sang-Woo is well written and acted.

[@jonathanjohnson6727]

I think Sangwoo took Saeybook out. Besides the obvious self-preservation, it was more due to a mix of mercy and removing the main threat as they're wounded(she's always shown to mirror his decisions and positions, is willing to go above and beyond like he does and has been open about it while he operated behind a front). The rules leaves it open for the majority to stop the games(meaning if all 3 were left, Sangwoo might not be able to recoup his mothers life/livelihood were Gi-Hun and Saeybook to out vote him ending the game) and those eliminated next of kin would receive the rewards, not his mother.

[@Goombario37]

he would have done it whether she was wounded or not

[@jonathanjohnson6727]

@@Goombario37 well imo, she's always been the most prepared. Its doubtful you'd get the drop on someone like her in better condition. She does pickpocket as an everyday means for survival, with heavy implications she has traversed/experienced/adapted the most. Escaping NK and working with and then getting away from Deok-Su(out in real life)
