I felt the ending was perfect
Lee Jung Jae played the hell out of this role. His facial expressions speak volumes.
There seems to be a lot of negativity regarding the finale of Squid Game. Personally, I felt it was perfect. I saw the Cate Blanchett scene as it was explained by the creator, that the greed and cruelty can never be completely eradicated. I do not have any desire to see an American version of the show, as it would only be redundant. If I had to change just one thing about the ending, I would remove some of the neat, little packages to wrap up each one's story. It was so impactful when Seong Gi Hun sacrificed himself for the baby and we saw him lying there with one of his iconic facial expressions. Maybe then just the demolition, the Front Man atoning by gifting the baby and the money to his brother and money to Gi Hun's daughter, plus the Cate Blanchett scene. Some of the other stories just watered down the impact.
