I do think it was a little overblown though, in the sense I think it was so new for western audiences to enjoy anything foreign so that may have amplified some of it. Like it was good, we gotta convince others to give it a chance despite being foreign.
The creator spent I think like 10 years writing the story before it got made? It’s not like many netflix series in that regard.
It’s a shame he did not really earn that much from making it tho. One of the reasons that Korean producers of such shows don’t want to work with Netflix.
One of the main things that hyped it up was that we were on lockdown because of Covid. Nothing to do but look for some entertainment at home. Thankfully we had this show and crazy ass Tiger King.
Worth watching, but only watch in English if you think you can get over the dubious dub. After a few episodes it mostly stops bothering you, but it’s probably better to watch in Korean with subtitles if you’re sensitive to that.
I get your point but nah, I think both of them are great. Yet I do like Alice in Borderlands more. Squid game is still a great show that is totally worth watching.
I haven’t seen it yet! Was it actually good or just trendy?
The trend was safely justified
This is accurate.

It’s amazing. Very worth watching!

Really good
Just trendy. Alice in Borderland (Japanese) was a million times better with a similar story but somehow less hype.
