Great movie. The current situation in the Korean peninsula is one of many tragedies of this world.

Wow, was this ever intense! Holy shit, I was sweating the whole time. Great movie, great cast, probably my favorite 2021 korean movie (from what I've seen so far). Stunning! Ki Joo is sweet and great in her role, so was the psycho, man, I just wanted to kill him slowly 😀

I get it. I admit I have an issue with Netflix getting into k-dramas so I am biased for sure. Peace

Hm, I've only watched her in Village survivor and some other tv-show, one of the prettiest faces in kpop, I'm curious about her acting skills. Most idols sre pretty bad when it comes to acting with a few notable exceptions

I did watch stuff like Hunger Games, Equilibrium and others. I guess it's not fun for me anymore

Shocking, no one would have predicted

Don't look too much in the mirror

Yes, you enjoy your dystopian shit. It will match the world you live in. I will stick to whatever I like.

Must be one of those people that need "safe spaces"

You speak the truth. Believe me I can can say much worse about the situation. Unfortunately the global sheep don't care, they need their Avengers, Ironman, Star Wars and soon Squid game to go on forever

I will watch Son Ye Jin cause I'm a fan ( I'll stop if it's bad though) other than that nothing exciting. Zombie, dystopian, sci-fi -yawn-🥱 . Then again it's Netflix so wtf did I expect?

And people say Netflix will not change K-dramas , lol

You should see my wife, she despises him :-)

Unfortunately I had to drop it, Park Han Byul was annoying as hell. The 'cute but dumb' thing is really too much, I just wanted to punch her in the face. I don't know if this is indicative of her acting skills or just the character she was playing. Also did not like the doctor. I did like the original actress before the surgery ( more vein and a stunning beauty ) and the bad husband :-)

"Dumb and dumber" which of the 2 is which? (I've only watched Hunger games but from all the conversations I've had I think Squid game gets the "dumber" title). Both very fittingly dystopian to nowadays society. I guess people love this shit so much that they decided to make their lifes just as . /sarcasm

True, not B&W , I guess time will tell but Netflix will push Korean film companies aside, only a matter of time. I don't have a crystal ball but I will give it only a few years for Netflix to totally dominate the k-drama market (if they're not there already).

I did say their economy gets whatever from filming (actors, crews, suppliers, etc). Afterwards the money the drama generates go somewhere else and that's the bulk of it, don't kid yourself.

Financially Koreans are shooting themselves in the foot by allowing this and culturally they are dilluting their identity little by little. Netflix produces dramas for the world not for Korea hence they will "adjust" certain things for more "western" appeal

Korean cast & crew gets paid, after drama is released all the money go to the US, so Korea benefits very little financially. Netflix will take over the market, Korean companies will go down (can't compete with a giant). Same with young koreans prefering iphone over samsung, ship the money outside the country ( Samsung is 40% of their economy and Korea pension funds are heavily invested in samsung too, if Samsung drops even a bit - what will happen to their economy). This is just financial aspect, plus the other stuff you speak in another comment. There's a current against this in Korea too.

Haha, you seem to agree with me in the end :) Yes it will dilute the "sauce" nice way to put it
