Best way is to watch some comedy or take a break to process your thoughts and feelings. Thats what I do.
Good luck. I am moving to another dramas in a day or so. I watched this finale and W closely afterwords and as both finale were powerful and I need a break.

I see. It still isn’t excuse, they knew all along they had 12 episodes and should’ve arranged the storyline accordingly. Perhaps less focus on the horrible parents. Many scenes were not needed. No amount of scenes would make me feel anything for them.
Only one I could feel sorry for was the real Saeon. He should’ve been treated properly or put into mental institution.

Last episode was a little let down, so from 10 to 9. But not for political reasons like others mentioned.

Just because it was out of context and absolutely out of character. He absolutely could have gone out there and find peace, forgiveness for himself etc. It was just not executed well. Half of us thought he went off because they were related or something 😅🙄

His reasoning didn’t make sense. Leaving her before properly reminding her and promising her he will be back was selfish, cruel and harsh.
But it was still an amazing show with great twists.
And second couple was just the cutest 😍Also, deducted points for the kiss we didn’t get 🤭

We shall see. I assume they will explain what happened. Even though I love villains, I love when they get what they deserve even more 😅And the way he exed the guy in last game… he is not deserving any sympathy.
The performance is something though. It’s real treat to watch ☺️

It doesn’t matter he doesn’t pull the trigger himself. He is part of the game, he isn’t Front man for being kind soul. He must be cruelest of them all to be in this position. So he shouldn’t have any sympathy.

I love the actor, but sympathy for Inho is out of place. No matter what happened to him… he has been fuelling the game machine for years, overseeing thousands of people being killed. There should be no redemption for him. Only favour I would give him to be killed quickly.

It’s the reason I stopped watching US shows. I have nothing against gays, lesbians etc. I have many friends from the community. But like you said it’s way too forced now in Western shows.
Kdrama still makes it feel natural and always include challenges they face within society, point at them and try to help people to understand. (It was same here and in Mad for Each Other, where transgender gets bullied by neighbours.)

I see, he’s annoying but I take it as a breather 🤣 Anyway I think most people here liked it, only negative comments stand out more. And rating is either rigged or broken. Cause there is no chance it wouldn’t move (either way) since yesterday with additional 6K ratings.

Which side you are? Like or don’t like? 🤭

Not better, but definitely not as bad as it may seem from comments and rating.
The surprise element is decreased since it’s second round, but acting is amazing on all parts and games are still wicked. The last round of the third game was madness.
Only thing that keeps bothering me is that they never cleaned the blood from floor. 🤣Makes big disadvantage to the players.

So you only get a number, but it’s still fun 🤩

Just discovered fun game they invented on Instagram. If you reply to Squid Game handle on any post, you get to play via messages 🤣My number is 294. Not sure how long I will last 🤣

I need to make a chart with known actors, cause apparently I didn’t recognise half of them and watch the whole thing all over again 🤣

I was checking the timing on episode 7 and 20 minutes before the end, it hit me- dang it… it will end on a cliffhanger 😅Which is the thing I dislike the most (besides open ending) but since I know it’s next season soon I don’t mind.

It was crazy. And rock paper scissors minus one? Also crazy 😅
I must say that I enjoyed very much watching Front man trying to figure out Gihun, outplay him and stay alive at the same time. Fun stuff. His acting was, as always superb 👌

Sadly, no date yet 😭 It has been shot, now in post production stage.
I did shout couple more times though 😅 Russian roulette was wild 🤣 My thought is, that it did piss off half the fandom right from the start- even though it was expected 😅🙊

It was great. When Front man entered the games I shouted so loud my son came in to ask what was so great 🤣😅

Nice catch. Good thing I plan to watch again at least one more time 😁

I really think that once the initial “hate” stop and regular folks return from holidays, the ratings will improve. Or not? 🤔

Also- honestly, how many of you really expected Front Man to enter the game. It’s easy to say, bla it was predictable when you know now, but did you really know.
I know didn’t. I thought he would manipulate behind the scenes and try to make other players go against Gihun. Him coming in, was much more fun 🤷🏻‍♀️
