Why is no one talking about deoksu????? He literally had to work sooooo hard, changing his physical appearance, gaining so much weight and facing all of the side effects like throwing up, muscle pain etc.... Mad respect
Best thing is that they recognized smaller talents , like not everyday you see a production team cast a model for something so intense or casting an acting student. Respect.
One thing most people don't understand is that acting isn't as difficult as it looks. Overacting js a meme, and there is certainly a level of craft and work that comes with the profession, but acting isn't a difficult thing to do. It's just lying with style.
I didn't hate him, I hated Sang-Woo. Deok Su was just a typical "I"m the alpha here" guy, but Sang-Woo was calculated, manipulative & evil. SPOILERS(I elaborate, why I hate Sang-Woo): He's probably more complex, but at the begining, he seemed nice to Ali & Gi-Hun, but at the Honeycomb game, he lost my liking for him & at Marbles, I started to hate him. Before Squid Game, I was completely dispised him & basically prayed for Gi.Hun to kill him. It didn't happen & his suicide didn't make me feel pity for him one bit.
@@BananasAndChickens Tug of war actually has a lot to do with lower body strength as you need to be able to stand with your feet strongly planted in the ground. I’ve beaten people at tug of war who have a lot more upper body strength than me.
I’m glad it blew up. They worked so hard, and I think it was worth it. Edit: y’all seriously will find anything to complain about. Go touch some grass. All I did was compliment their hard work. I never said anything about the amount of work of other movies or shows. I’m not a bot. This series is 12 years in the making. Chill out lmfao
067 does a incredible job at expressing her feelings. Literally. When she’s sad you can hear the sadness. When she’s mad you can see the anger. When she’s hurt you can feel the pain with her.
I wasted so much sadness on her even though i strongly knew she was fictional i really wanted to hug her and tell her it was okay and just be there for her... :(
i hope the actor playing deok-su is doing ok now and is getting back on track the amount of strain he had to put his body through and how badly it was affecting him sounds awful and very dangerous
yeah honestly people treat it like some impressive show of heroism but i think that it's just too much. no show is worth losing health, throwing up and exhaustion. To me it's not heroic, it's just badly planned. If your production requires actors to be exhausted, have short breaks and work ungodly hours, you're just bad at planning. It's just a show, it's better to sacrifice a few "wow" effects if it means actors won't have to get sick and strain their bodies
@@lvmln7843 couldn't have said it better myself i'm sure the actors were fine and in good hands in terms of the stunts they had to pull like tug of war for example, but their health definitely didn't feel like a concern to the production crew as much as it should have been
Glad to see a comment like this, I was thinking the same thing. It's definitely impressive that he endured such physical strain for the show, but it really shouldn't be normalized.
@fanboy thank you for the reminder i only referred to him as "deok-su actor" because korean names are not easy for me to remember and deok-su already took me way too long
THANK YOU for including the part about anupam tripathi! he never gets any screentime in these features and he was such a powerful character in the story! not to mention so hardworking and compassionate
No hate, I’m glad this channel is doing it’s part to bring translated content for Western viewers that don’t have the time or Korean fluency to watch/read interviews. I am just genuinely curious as to why Anupam Tripathi was the only actor name mentioned while others were referred to as only their character names. Please acknowledge them because I’m sure “the actor that plays Deoksu” (Heo Sungtae) and “the Saebyeok actress” (Jung Hoyeon) worked hard to have their names credited too!
His is the only non Korean on cast! Take notes and hire more international people on productions that have international release. Time to diversify Korea
I get the feeling they intentionally avoided saying their names because they were worried about mispronouncing them. Indian names are a bit more natural to english speakers - but even so, thats no excuse, since they could pronounce the characters names (granted, they heard them throughout the show - but it wouldnt be hard to find videos where the actors names are said aloud)

To be fair, a lot of these really aren't at all unusual for actors. Signing contracts that say they can't talk about their work with people outside of the project, training with an accent coach, filming at different times during the day and keeping their bodies in a particular shape are all things which are pretty standard practice in this line of work and are by no means "extreme rules".
Acting takes a lot of hard work and dedication. I did a production that premiered for a week. We spent a lot of months on it. Every day after school we were in the rehearsal room for god knows hours. I haven’t done anything remotely hard, it takes a lot of your effort. Your gonna be exhausted but all in all it’s amazing when It finally comes together. These actors are amazing, they should be super proud of themselves
I kinda feel bad for the people who had to play as the staues, like imagine being put as cast member in a movie to only then be covered in paint and just stand there like a statue 😂
Nah. Most have stunt doubles esp in America anyway. The more famous or popular actor, the less they let them do stunts unless they demand it or it's in their contract or whatever. I'm sure they have to sign that they or family won't sue if they get hurt or killed. Their agents/managers probably hate that lol. I heard Tom Cruise does most of his stunts but he's so famous I'm sure he demands it & has a way around it. He's a weirdo tho. Lol. I'm speculating about everything besides knowing that most don't do their own stunts but TC does.
@@i.dle.k Tom Cruise? Yeah I think he's weird. He's in that bizarre Scientology cult & has some really off the wall beliefs & is against using medicine for mental illness, don't believe postpartum depression is real, etc. They see mental illness as a character flaw & a weekness that you can just think yourself out of.
Squid Game is one of those gems that just outshines everything else, from musical score and directing to acting and art/set design, very well done. I always thought shows like Twilight, The Hunger Games, Tom Holland's Spider-Man, etc. had horrible acting. Well, Squid Game proves it.
Okay yeah a LOT of American movies and shows are not that good but you cannot say Hunger Games was bad. It was really good and there was a lot commitment. Although I do think Squid Game was better.
3:58 is actually an attempted suicide. Burning coal briquettes inside an enclosed space and falling asleep/getting drunk can cause suffocation and leads to a painless death (when asleep).
All I'm hearing is confirmation that Netflix prioritizes money over the health and safety of their cast and crew. As per usual. Can confirm. IATSE in Canada, let's make sure we get this new media stuff worked out. We're being abused more and more with long days on set every day.
I really hope people didn't give Heo Sung-tae (Deok su's actor) any hate because of his character! He went through so much and worked so hard! Truly amazing work
I am an aspiring actor who works 15 hour days and come home every night exhausted while still having school and a side job and I have the most respect for these people out of anyone I’ve ever known, they triple my work and far surpass me in skill and I hope to one day hold even a candle to their brilliance!
a lot of the stuff like the shooting schedule is normal in South Korea though, up until Covid, most dramas are shot with only a 2-4 week buffer for episodes, only in the last couple of years have they started recording whole dramas before release and thats only certain production companies
@@성이름-m6v If your mention is a fact, is it possible SK government say that officially? or say that to NK politicians? I am also south Korean but never heard that.
Realizing how embarrassingly American I am from being impressed that Anupam can speak more than 2 languages haha, hope his thesis went well! He seems a lot like Ali personality wise
Even tho I hate Doek su I really do feel bad for his actor I feel a true discomfort of vomit and most likely have a phobia so the fact he felt that for so long makes me feel so bad😔 he deserves a break
Every of their sacrifices are worth it now. Gave their best to follow the rules from the game itself. I especially like the alcohol part! Chef kiss 💋!!
I’m pretty sure it was June 8, but trust me if there is a Season 2 it will most likely arrive in 2023 - 2025 if it still isn’t done then there isn’t hope for an S2 🤷🏻♂️
If someone was like “yo, you could be in a show but you’ll have to seriously upkeep your body and do all this intensive stuff” I would agree immediately cause I wouldn’t exactly be able to quit yk
imagine if there's a real squid game happening in the world. The closest event I can think of is when a drug cartel forced men to fight to the death and the winner would become a hitman for the cartel
There is also this one haunted/tortument house that u have to leave within 8 hours without getting killed and u get a big amount of money. No one has been able to escape it yet but it's quite similar to squid game
smoll softie not without getting killed. They would have gotten shut down a long time ago before now if that was the case. No one has ever completed it because there is no end the guy behind it also said there is no money and it was a lie. People would just sign their lives away to be tortured and eventually tap out or they would make them leave because of injuries (like one guy almost having a heart attack)
@@ieatdogss his actor he talked about how it was planned and he accidentally grabbed gi huns actor a little too hard by the shirt, but he said that he was nice about it which is wholesome
Its the most basic thing in the world. Everyone knows that the government doesn’t give a shit about us and we’re their test subjects. Why do you think their giving us booster shots this early?

Interesting. If you were in fact in any way associated with the freemasons then you wouldn't be stupid enough to divulge this kind of information. Unless you were...
The fact that there's no ridiculously obvious stunt double shots is amazing. Insane. You don't see that in America. They won't let an actor jump off a damn chair half the time. And wow, a Pakistani expat living in Korea, speaks the language fluently and also speaks perfect English. Holy hell, that dude has put in some work. Born and raised Americans I live next to know less fluent English than he does.
i love how the casting director was so inclusive for such a big series!! casting an acting student is such a big risk to take but anupam touched so many of us with his portrayal of the character ali. and hoyeon had no acting experience in the past and to make her such a vital character must have been a sure risk to take. love this show, how inclusive and how real it is
Dang those are some interesting rules
Bit bizarre I agree but in these situations you have to dedicate yourself 100%. Fascinating actually
There's a good chance if they didn't include some of those rules, even the slightest change could've made the show a little different
Agreed.

Those are indeed very strict rules but they're not only for squid game cast. Most of K-dramas have these rules to produce real quality.

I heard Tom Cruise does most of his stunts but he's so famous I'm sure he demands it & has a way around it. He's a weirdo tho. Lol. I'm speculating about everything besides knowing that most don't do their own stunts but TC does.
@@bluem5620 yeah here in USA/united states of America/america or WHATEVER U CALL OUR COUNTRY we have stunt doubles and stuff
@@bluem5620 he is weird?
@@i.dle.k Tom Cruise? Yeah I think he's weird. He's in that bizarre Scientology cult & has some really off the wall beliefs & is against using medicine for mental illness, don't believe postpartum depression is real, etc. They see mental illness as a character flaw & a weekness that you can just think yourself out of.
@@bluem5620 oh. Oh god
i never noticed the statues in the vip room were real
@Movies Explore
lmao
I knew they were real people but I thought they had some type of full body suit on, not paint 😅
Ok, literally the WHOLE time I was like..are those people? No...are those PEOPLE??..Can't be. .
Damn... Mad respect for Deoksu's actor. That's insane, so glad this show got the hype it deserved.
Squid Game is one of those gems that just outshines everything else, from musical score and directing to acting and art/set design, very well done. I always thought shows like Twilight, The Hunger Games, Tom Holland's Spider-Man, etc. had horrible acting. Well, Squid Game proves it.
No way you just disses Hunger Games bro
@kashu RBLX yes hunger games is so good too…
Okay yeah a LOT of American movies and shows are not that good but you cannot say Hunger Games was bad. It was really good and there was a lot commitment. Although I do think Squid Game was better.
You think Hunger Games has bad acting? I gotta disagree on that '^^
Hunger games has good acting you just like squid game, squid game is just overrated
He had to gain 40 pounds and yet still the most hated character 😒
it's because he played his role very well, that's a good thing.
If you find yourself hating a villain from a show/movie that means they did their job well!
he’s the most hated CHARACTER not person think about that, also yeah these ppl are right he played his role really well
Nah it’s toilet girl
@@pemstudys4820 It's a close call lol.
The fact that Netflix only invested 20 million and earned 900 million in protfit is quite sad. Please pay your korean creators better netflix.
Real question, how do you calculate revenues for a Netflix series? I would assume most of the people seeing it already have a subscription.
@@maxrate4636 read the news.
The filming of the Squid Game feels like a the Squid Game itself…
So much respect for the actors!
"The expensive advertisement" I didn't see a single thing about Squid Game until now
I would just say that I have huge respect for all of them. It’s not easy to make a masterpiece 👏🏻
it was all worth it in the end though..
Definitely was!
And I hope they all get well looked afterwards, not just their pay but get mental health help if they need it, filming can be full on
@@lizxu322 Definitely!
They did an awesome job tho because Squid Game is really popular now!
Wow thanks for saying I never knew!
The making of Squid Game was itself a Squid Game.
3:58 is actually an attempted suicide. Burning coal briquettes inside an enclosed space and falling asleep/getting drunk can cause suffocation and leads to a painless death (when asleep).
wait really???
Interesting….

And everything was worth it. Squid Game broke the internet, they deserve it. ❤️
Everyone did amazing. Their hard-work payed off and became one of the best shows on netflix (as I've been told that), can’t wait for season 2! 💗
All I'm hearing is confirmation that Netflix prioritizes money over the health and safety of their cast and crew. As per usual. Can confirm. IATSE in Canada, let's make sure we get this new media stuff worked out. We're being abused more and more with long days on set every day.
Their hard work paid offffffffffffff!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ❤️❤️ actors were amazing !!
I really hope people didn't give Heo Sung-tae (Deok su's actor) any hate because of his character! He went through so much and worked so hard! Truly amazing work
I am an aspiring actor who works 15 hour days and come home every night exhausted while still having school and a side job and I have the most respect for these people out of anyone I’ve ever known, they triple my work and far surpass me in skill and I hope to one day hold even a candle to their brilliance!
a lot of the stuff like the shooting schedule is normal in South Korea though, up until Covid, most dramas are shot with only a 2-4 week buffer for episodes, only in the last couple of years have they started recording whole dramas before release and thats only certain production companies
Wow, new found respect for Doek-su. Gaining and losing that much weight in a short period of time is extremely hard on the body and mind.
Sae Byeok isn't from a different *region* from actress Jung Ho Yeon; Sae Byeok is from North Korea, which is a different *country*!!
You know north korea is not real country right?
@@KKrtt-xe4dh North Korea is a different country. North and South Korea are different countries.
N.k is a different country but people living in N.K are S.K citizens according to the law. Because N.K is considered as a terrorist organization.
@@성이름-m6v If your mention is a fact, is it possible SK government say that officially? or say that to NK politicians? I am also south Korean but never heard that.
a different country can be called as a different region
Realizing how embarrassingly American I am from being impressed that Anupam can speak more than 2 languages haha, hope his thesis went well! He seems a lot like Ali personality wise
This entire show was so amazing. The actors, film crew and directors are really something else.
00:00:47 damnnn i did NOT expect gi huns body to be that fit OKAYYY🔥
Even tho I hate Doek su I really do feel bad for his actor I feel a true discomfort of vomit and most likely have a phobia so the fact he felt that for so long makes me feel so bad😔 he deserves a break
SAME
WTF 69 LIKES AND ITS BEEN 2 HOURS THANK YOU
Not all people have a phobia of vomit
@@mary-lane6267 Angelic fairy meant that he might've some sort of Phobia(which he has when it comes to high places), not phobia of vomit
He character was mean but he deserves much love and validation as a actor!! And he played it really well too!!
And here I am, binge watching it in one go. 😬
I’m obsessed with this show!!! I cannot wait for season 2 to come out!!!!
Round of applause 👏 to the dedication of these actor’s 💯 ❤️
Thank you !
Every of their sacrifices are worth it now. Gave their best to follow the rules from the game itself. I especially like the alcohol part! Chef kiss 💋!!
RESPECT to every single person on the show and behind the cameras. 👏🏼
Season 2 release might be at 6th august bcoz gi-hun's daughters birthday is at 6/08 we saw it when he ticked the horses
I’m pretty sure it was June 8, but trust me if there is a Season 2 it will most likely arrive in 2023 - 2025 if it still isn’t done then there isn’t hope for an S2 🤷🏻♂️
@@thekyoungin6054 it was August 8
her birthday was on june 8
@@tanglulu777 k sorry then my bad
@@abdulmuqeet2253 you can google it, and if I’m still wrong then you’re lying 🤥
The entire production has my all my respect. They all did a great job and worked very hard. And the entire series is just a whole masterpiece. ✨
Ngl this sounds quite typical for a production, there are no rules out of the ordinary here ngl
@Boobz shit I didn't even notice smh my head
@@kxdsh your head?
@@Angel-rb8df shaking my head
Thank you very good video, informative and helpful. Loved Squid Game.
0:36 that’s what’s so amazing about movies/shows that aren’t American. They don’t rely on makeup and green screen. It’s always more realistically done
“No Achohol”
Ah yes, extreme rules.
i heard Koreans are heavy drinkers, like a cultural thing? so not drinking is a big deal for them. but thats only what i heard
@@m0nst3rbra1nz5 yes, I heard that often. They do the drinks all the time like for socialism for job etc. Like it part of their life
If someone was like “yo, you could be in a show but you’ll have to seriously upkeep your body and do all this intensive stuff” I would agree immediately cause I wouldn’t exactly be able to quit yk
imagine if there's a real squid game happening in the world. The closest event I can think of is when a drug cartel forced men to fight to the death and the winner would become a hitman for the cartel
the government in Abu Dhabi I think are doing one, just without death
There is also this one haunted/tortument house that u have to leave within 8 hours without getting killed and u get a big amount of money. No one has been able to escape it yet but it's quite similar to squid game
@@smollsoftie3881 mckamey manor
smoll softie not without getting killed. They would have gotten shut down a long time ago before now if that was the case. No one has ever completed it because there is no end the guy behind it also said there is no money and it was a lie. People would just sign their lives away to be tortured and eventually tap out or they would make them leave because of injuries (like one guy almost having a heart attack)
I finished this show today. 1 whole day of binge watching. The show makes you feel like you’re literally there.
Wonderful acting. WOW, what a show
I love that SNU guy 🙂
Even though he is bad
SNU guy 😆🤣 I don know wheather that was his intention or not, director Hwang promote the name of his own university a lot through this show
Im glad their hard work paid off
Im glad the show blow up so much so each of them could get the sweet reward for the strugle. Well deserved.
If someone does a movement wrong the whole casts starts over imagine how frustrating that would’ve been
Edit:MOMMY IM FAMOUS 7.1K LIKES
It’s funny bc if u watch the behind the scenes for red light green light the main char kept falling hahaha
@@maddieek6865 honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if the part when Ali grabbed the main was improv
@@ieatdogss his actor he talked about how it was planned and he accidentally grabbed gi huns actor a little too hard by the shirt, but he said that he was nice about it which is wholesome

Everytime Ali speaks I immediately thought it was Raj from Big Bang theory
The VIP room is very realistic to the worlds elite… Don’t kid yourself. Educate yourself!! 🇦🇺
What the fuck do you know
Its the most basic thing in the world. Everyone knows that the government doesn’t give a shit about us and we’re their test subjects. Why do you think their giving us booster shots this early?
@@nimbusflamel8844 obviously more than you! GFY good and hard 👊🇦🇺
@@shonah4193 lmao that's cute. Cuz I'm under the impression that the elites keep to themselves and wouldn't dare step out of line to compare their predictive programming etiquette to a tv show! Hm. Interesting. If you were in fact in any way associated with the freemasons then you wouldn't be stupid enough to divulge this kind of information.
Unless you were...
@@tomohawkcloud what are you on about lol these vaccines have saved a huge amount of lives, it's just a fact by this point
They say its extreme but this is literally standard in the film industry.
Some of these are strange but like “confidentiality” and “staying fit” is often a demand for actors in many roles people watch in today’s world
The fact that there's no ridiculously obvious stunt double shots is amazing. Insane. You don't see that in America.
They won't let an actor jump off a damn chair half the time.
And wow, a Pakistani expat living in Korea, speaks the language fluently and also speaks perfect English.
Holy hell, that dude has put in some work.
Born and raised Americans I live next to know less fluent English than he does.
i love how the casting director was so inclusive for such a big series!! casting an acting student is such a big risk to take but anupam touched so many of us with his portrayal of the character ali. and hoyeon had no acting experience in the past and to make her such a vital character must have been a sure risk to take. love this show, how inclusive and how real it is
