I'm sure the guys have probably watched it already, but I would love to see them react to Train to Busan if they haven't seen it in a while. I just love seeing grown men cry.
The crazy part about Gi-hun getting his daughters gift, is that rather than go to a toy store and getting her a toy, or even paying the little kid for one of his prizes, he continues to gamble on what he will gift his daughter. Man has an INSANE gambling problem lol.
@ dude is an absolute bum. His mom had to give him money to go get his daughter a gift, he gambled that money, lost it, then when he got money back for the gift, he gambled again. If you’re someone who struggles financially, gambling should not be your go to.
Yeah, this first episode was extremely painful to watch. My family had convinced me to watch the first episode w them when I was visiting and I was just cringing with how sad it was the whole time.
man back then i wanted to watch it.. then i saw its not over and a sec season will come so i didnt, because i hate waiting.. like; squid game.. its almost 3years lol
I don’t. It’s a boring ass show. Like. Yeah the revenge is cool and all but half the people that watch it love the bullies because the main character lacks a personality.
YES, The Kingdom on Netflix, then the follow-up movie, The Kingdom: Ashin of the North. It's a GREAT watch. The cinematography and action sequences are *chefs kiss*
After falling in love w ur AOT & GOTs rxns was secretly hoping you’d do a kdrama cuz I think you’d really love them since u guys seem to love good storytelling and complex characters w great development so you’d def appreciate kdramas. I’m so thrilled you decided to do squid games! Hope you do other kdramas eventually as well. Love ur rxns
YEESSS Korean cinema is goated!! Like the director of Parasite said, once you overcome the one inch barrier of subtitles, you'll be introduced to so many more quality stories. So excited for this!
Yes! Welcome to the world of Korean dramas! Small service note: The word 형 "hyeong" means brother, but not quite as it's used in English like "bro", which is often thrown around and can be used for people you don't know well. First meaning is the actual (older) brother, the sibling, second meaning is when boys or men adress an older boy/man, whom they're close to. So there needs to exist a somewhat close relationship to call someone "hyeong". I don't know who from you guys is the oldest, but in Korean the other four guys would call your oldest pal hyeong instead by name. And if someone offers you to call you that that's a big step - and kinda important for some scenes in many dramas ... ;) If a girl/woman speaks to an older boy/man she calls him 오빠 "oppa" (older brother of a female), but it can also be said to an older male she took some interest in - as you will see. If you want to continue with K dramas I recommend "The Glory". Truly one of the best shows ever and I know you would love to discuss this! Greetings from Germany :)
@@azih8626 Friends is classic, with how quickly they react to a show we need Will & Grace's original run (S1-8), hilarious sitcom with lots of guest stars but lacks reactors and I would bet they haven't seen it. Always Sunny or Modern Family they may have seen but are funny. Simpsons being an animated show could probably go on their other channel and it's like 36 seasons too yikes and gets kinda unfunny after the first several.
Most of Korean dramas/Movies are well-written and so good to watch. But, if you like this kind of film. I highly recommend Alice in Borderland, the Japanese live-action. It's soo good, it's all about survival/game of life
I am new to your channel and as a die hard fan of kdrama, I must say that Squid game is just 10% good compare how amazing, interesting and creative kdrama is.
Korean shows are full with contracts like in this one, regarding the organs, and I can't help but imagine how they take the contract to the court and the judge says: "yes, makes sense. this thug is the owner of your liver now" and the police even escorts him to the hospital to have it removed :DDD
I liked Squid Games I enjoyed the series, however last year I was told about Alice in Borderland, not only is it better than Squid Games it’s more gruesome more intense and it actually came out before Squid Games. Alice in Borderland is Japanese!
Hell yeah! Let's all wish that season 2 will be good 🙏 Also hope you guys try watching Weak Hero Class 1, or at least to add it on your to watch list. I think it'll be right up your alley, pretty much the storyline feels like an anime plot soo yeah it's epic, this one will also get a season 2 next year!
MORE KOREAN DRAMA PLS!!! ITS SO GOOD! 1. ITS OK TO NOT BE OKAY 2. MOVING 3.ITAEWON CLASS 4.MR. QUEEN 5.MOVE TO HEAVEN 6.WEAK HERO 7. THE GLORY 8. TAXI DRIVER 9. SWEET HOME 10. FLOWER OF EVIL 11. DEATH GAME 12.THE JUDGE FROM HELL 13. TWINKLING WATERMELON AND MOREEE! THEY TACKLE A LOT OF SOCIAL TOPIC AND SUCH A GOOD PLOT TOO, EVEN THE OST's!!!
I really need to know what Carter did prior to these channels for fun. Bro has skipped literally every culturally relevant show/movie in the last decade.
When you end this y'all shoul watch "Alice in borderline" is a similar concep but at the same time very different from this, is a japanese serie on netflix
No way, after you guys got done with GoT I thought it would take ages for you watch anything else that I've watched and would be interested in watching reactions of, but I guess not. Let's go!
Omg you should watch Alice in Borderland! They have 2 seasons it’s in my opinion better than squid game but similar in themes of survival, adventure and games one winner?!
Season 2 will start distributing at the end of the year, so I'm looking forward to it! It's my favorite drama, so I'm really glad you made it into a reaction video!
One of the great things Netflix has done is help push people toward non american live action content. As for Squid Game, something that made it very appealing/relatable was broke people desperate for money. Wouldnt have hit the same with wealthy people in the games
you know what, there will be Squid Game american version directed by David Fischer😂 idk why they make it, because from my pov, squid game is so rich in korean culture😅
Sure the pandemic gets some credit for squid game blowing up, but the truth is that this show on paper should not have worked as well as it did, even with the pandemic. It is a foreign language show, it is quite graphic, it had no international hype before it came out, the main character is straight up unlikable, and it builds on cultural references the vasssst majority of the audience didn't know. it had so much working against it, even with the pandemic push. It takes a special kind of show to defeat the odds, and squid games did- because it is just that good
You guys are doing Korean dramas now!!! Let's gooooo Most infuriating character to me was the main one 😂 but still a good show I hope you watch Alice In Borderland next which is another popular survival game concept series and MGM+' FROM
Now that we are venturing into more Korean cinema, it’s time for TRAIN TO BUSAN!!!!
YESSSSS I’ve never cried through a zombie but that was a first! Great acting all around good movie
YESSSSSSSSS
ITAEWON
We will also accept PARASITE as well. That is a masterpiece that must be watched.
THIS RIGHT HERE.
THANK GOODNESS yall are watching in Korean with subs. I always get nervous with new reactions if they watch dubbed.
One thing these guys ride and die with is watching things in their original format.
i stand for german dub, so i watched it in both korean and german dub xD
Why
@@keef5the English dub for this is awful. Greatly takes away from the show
@@shanetheawesomegamer nah. What takes away from a show for me is not understanding the language
wasn't expecting this one but super excited to see your reactions
I'm sure the guys have probably watched it already, but I would love to see them react to Train to Busan if they haven't seen it in a while. I just love seeing grown men cry.
None of us have seen it👀
@CinemaGek well boys.... You should definitely put that on your list. One of the best zombie movies ever made lol
@@CinemaGek PLS WATCH IT!!! It's really one of the best zombie movie out there
train to busan is a masterpiece
@@CinemaGekGuys, you should react to it then!
The crazy part about Gi-hun getting his daughters gift, is that rather than go to a toy store and getting her a toy, or even paying the little kid for one of his prizes, he continues to gamble on what he will gift his daughter. Man has an INSANE gambling problem lol.
In his defense 10k won isn't that much. It's like around 7 usd
@ dude is an absolute bum. His mom had to give him money to go get his daughter a gift, he gambled that money, lost it, then when he got money back for the gift, he gambled again. If you’re someone who struggles financially, gambling should not be your go to.

@@yasminemixon9340 lol the excuse. Buy sweets instead of risking nothing. And again, could have bought from the kid
He literally almost get his nose injured and still asking money from the loanshark😭
This feels like the first step to 'Alice in Boarderland'
Manifesting🕯
manifesting with you friend
I like Alice more than this show
UP
man back then i wanted to watch it.. then i saw its not over and a sec season will come so i didnt, because i hate waiting.. like; squid game.. its almost 3years lol
I need them to watch it too!
"what were you guys doing during covid?" has to he the funniest thing he's ever said on the channel 😭 he's genuinely confused
I HIGHLY recommend watching "The Glory".
Hell yea
Oh hell yes
Omggg yessss
I don't think they would be interested in a drama
I think they would enjoy My name, Vigilante, Bloodhounds ,Death's Game or Worst of evil
I don’t. It’s a boring ass show. Like. Yeah the revenge is cool and all but half the people that watch it love the bullies because the main character lacks a personality.
the Kingdom (netflix) definitely highly recommended. good mix of politic and zombies, korean script usually is great.
Up! Good recommendation 👍👍
@@safianisa5030 yes yessssssss
I second this
Definitely!
YES, The Kingdom on Netflix, then the follow-up movie, The Kingdom: Ashin of the North. It's a GREAT watch. The cinematography and action sequences are *chefs kiss*
Didn't expect squid game to make it here. Glad to see you guys giving the Korean shows a try though.
finally!!! so excited to see more reactions to korean films
They could watch Sweet home, Hellbound, and #Alive
@ yes to hellbound but i'd prefer kingdom series over sweet home
@dotonboritakoyaki kingdom was really good!! 💯💯💯
Hell YES! We’re going into Korean cinema?! Train to Busan, Parasite, and Man From Nowhere 👏👏👏
I definitely recommend them watching train to Busan
what i think yall would really like is “alice in borderland”
YEEESSS I love that show, it will be awesome to see them react to it
BEST SHOW EVER!!!! SO UNDERRATED!!! BOTH SEASONS ARE AMAZING!!! THE GAMES ARE SO TWISTED AND THE CHARACTERS SO INTERESTING.
Bruh me too, that show is 🤯 for me
YESSS
AGREED!

They have entered the Korean drama era and I am here for it. Ya'll need to watch The Glory. Its so good.
So happy you finally started a K-drama ! Really hope you like it and start watching other k-shows like My Name and The Glory.
the geks watching the glory would be amazing
The Glory would be amazing!
please the Glory next
My name and glory boring as hell. It’s not their type of k drama would be better weak hero. My name and glory only for girls not for boys

Y'ALL NEED TO WATCH "ALICE IN BORDERLAND" AFTER THIS ONE PLZ U WILL NOT REGRET THAT
AGREEDD
Yess
UP
Yessss
I never comment but this oneeeee pls🙏🏼
Whaattttt?.....
Am i the only one who is Super surprised??
lowkey starting to think they're faking reactions for content. next is friends and the simpsons
it's only two of them who have not seen it, so not that surprising

@@ThePierax its been 3years comon... xD
@@azih8626bruh we’re never gonna fake reactions, if we did we would just pretend that none of us have seen it, which we don’t do
I think you guys would enjoy shows like My Name and Weak Hero Class 1!
the next kdramas you guys NEED to watch is ‘the glory’ and ‘my name’ - the best korean shows are either thrillers or action
"I'm rooting for him!"
"Don't root for him man they're all gonna end up cooked." 😂
Just go on and get sucked down the K-drama/film rabbit hole. SOOO many gems!
True. Don't neglect the movies! Those are so good.
Excellent, I needed a "rewatch" before Season 2 starts at the end of the year!
Between this and Dark, y’all are killing it, lol!
Most of Korean dramas/Movies are well-written and so good to watch. But, if you like this kind of film. I highly recommend Alice in Borderland, the Japanese live-action. It's soo good, it's all about survival/game of life
Next Kdrama please watch :
- The Glory
- Sweet Home
- My Name
- The Judge from hell
- Bloodhounds
up
The Glory is a big no.
yes!!! to The Glory and My Name
@@MingyuScoupsDKHoshithe glory is easily a top kdrama
Not Glory pls , its really boring
My Name is good
Ahaa wasn't expecting this Masterpiece series.... Looking forward to your journey 🤩
you really have low standards
WHAT??? I'VE NEVER EXPECTED YOU GUYS TO WATCH KDRAMA, BUT I'VE ALSO WAITING FOR THIS MOMENT 🔥👏
You guys should react to Korean show The Glory too. Was amazing just like squid game
“Alice in Borderland” is a must. It’s tremendously good. There are 2 seasons.
geks and kdramas??? omg i didn't expect that, but we definitely need to put them on some more kdramas
can't wait for the next reaction!!!!🙌🏻
I am new to your channel and as a die hard fan of kdrama, I must say that Squid game is just 10% good compare how amazing, interesting and creative kdrama is.
Watch Moving, its a disney plus korean drama and its so good 👏🏻👏🏻
It gets me mad how it went under the radar of most people. I believe it would be different if it was on Netflix. Such a great series.
wish it got more attention. i didn't know it existed until a year after it came out
YOOOO i was not expecting this! Good thing yall haven't seen it back then so we can get these reactions! So hyped for this!
I’m voting for
- Alice in borderland
- haunting of hill house
- peaky blinders
Yes yes ! Second to this !!!
PEAKY BLINDERS YES
I'm on Alice in borderland's side
HHH
27:49 I just said that, as Brig said it, S1 was very entertaining all the way through
You guys never seen squid games? How the hell did you guys even avoid it, it took over the world pretty much🤣😂
thats why that one dude never watched it apparently
their reactions sounds so feyk now
@@cheesepizza3819huh?😂😂 our reactions will never be fake
@@CinemaGek yeahhh
Some of them did
Omg?? I was not expecting this, but I AM READY!!!! Let's get it!
25:51 AHAHHA CARTER AND CANNON ARE SO CUTE LMFAOOOO this show really does have you on the edge of your seat
✅ Alice in Borderland
✅ Peaky Blinders
✅ Money Heist
ONG YESSSSSSA
yes plssssss espeecially alice in borderland
this is a good choice of show actually
OH MY GOODNESS!!!! Never expected you will watch and react Squidgame!!!! Let's GOOOOO!!!!
Korean shows are full with contracts like in this one, regarding the organs, and I can't help but imagine how they take the contract to the court and the judge says: "yes, makes sense. this thug is the owner of your liver now" and the police even escorts him to the hospital to have it removed :DDD
Never thought I'd see you react to this but I'm definitely all for it
The Glory next!
You guys should watch Alice in Borderland and The Haunting of Hill House
OMG I want them to watch Haunting of Hill House so bad😮💨
@@Haru_MisuThat's a good one! Really haunts me.
I liked Squid Games I enjoyed the series, however last year I was told about Alice in Borderland, not only is it better than Squid Games it’s more gruesome more intense and it actually came out before Squid Games. Alice in Borderland is Japanese!
We need a weak hero class 1 reaction
Hell yeah! Let's all wish that season 2 will be good 🙏 Also hope you guys try watching Weak Hero Class 1, or at least to add it on your to watch list. I think it'll be right up your alley, pretty much the storyline feels like an anime plot soo yeah it's epic, this one will also get a season 2 next year!
MORE KOREAN DRAMA PLS!!! ITS SO GOOD!
1. ITS OK TO NOT BE OKAY
2. MOVING
3.ITAEWON CLASS
4.MR. QUEEN
5.MOVE TO HEAVEN
6.WEAK HERO
7. THE GLORY
8. TAXI DRIVER
9. SWEET HOME
10. FLOWER OF EVIL
11. DEATH GAME
12.THE JUDGE FROM HELL
13. TWINKLING WATERMELON
AND MOREEE!
THEY TACKLE A LOT OF SOCIAL TOPIC AND SUCH A GOOD PLOT TOO, EVEN THE OST's!!!
Imo they wouldn't enjoy 1,3, 13 and 4 is a maybe because it's comedy but a bit corny.
Most guys don't really prefer the romantic ones.
OHHHHHFUUUUUCCCCKKKKYYYYEEEAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!! You Boys ain't ready for this show
I really need to know what Carter did prior to these channels for fun. Bro has skipped literally every culturally relevant show/movie in the last decade.
fr like I'm not gonna be surprised if they haven't checked out parasite either
Probably Bible study
@@vnreethey showed me parasite and it changed my life
Played Xbox and basketball😂😂 and I also wasn’t super into watching foreign media but now I love it
ALICE IN BODERLAND
You must watch this
Amazing show
Squid Game huh.....that's a name I haven't heard in years.
New ones almost out
wow I never would have thought that my favorite reactors would do squid game!!
okay so when they talk about million, it's korean won not dollars
Believe me i will not let you live peacefully until you watch Alice in borderland😂, it's for your enjoyment 😂❤
Since you guys are watching squid game give Alice in borderline a try they have a similar vibe
Similar but betterrrrrr
When you end this y'all shoul watch "Alice in borderline" is a similar concep but at the same time very different from this, is a japanese serie on netflix
“Squid game” is basically a plagiarism of Japanese old manga and movie “Kaiji” “Lier game” and “Kamisama no yuutoori”.
Finally. We are getting into the Kdrama bag👌🏾
No way, after you guys got done with GoT I thought it would take ages for you watch anything else that I've watched and would be interested in watching reactions of, but I guess not. Let's go!
Omg so excited for this!! I think y’all will really enjoy it 😊
Omg yayayay!!! I’m sooo excited to watch you guys watch this series ahahhaha. I hope you enjoy!
It's been so long that i lost the hype but watching it again with y'all i got reminded of why it was hyped.
10,000 Won (Korean currency) is like $10 here. Just drop the last 3 zeros. So the guys that owe like 200 Million Won in debt is like $200k
Y’all need to watch Kingdom and Mr Sunshine next!
"He's like Toji" lmao yeah kind of in that part
I'VE BEEN WANTING FOR YOU GUYS TO REACT KOREAN MEDIA EITHER THEIR MOVIES OR SERIES AAAAAA LET'S GO
You guys Have to watch Alice in Borderland if you're watching Asian shows. It's so good. Better than Squid games even.
I'm so excited you guys are doing this, the guy who proposed the ddakji game to our main character is actor Gong Yoo and he is an ICON.
Omg you should watch Alice in Borderland! They have 2 seasons it’s in my opinion better than squid game but similar in themes of survival, adventure and games one winner?!
Hype hype hype boys! This will be fun!
21:37 "When you play the game of thrones. you win or you die." Peak recognizes peak!! W GOT reference
Carter at the beginning of the game: "This is so evil!"
Carter several minutes into the game: "Kick him in the face!"
YESSS FIRST CBTV now you guys! 🔥 exciting
Season 2 will start distributing at the end of the year, so I'm looking forward to it! It's my favorite drama, so I'm really glad you made it into a reaction video!
Flower of evil and Mouse are top tier masterpieces of kdrama with everything being great.
You all need to react to Haunting of Hill House in spirits of Halloween
yessss and bly manor too‼️‼️
Both so good and I wish but it’s probably too late now 😭
And The Fall of the House of Usher
but it is so slow pace
Too late, Halloween is about to be over why start a whole series. If they're gonna watch something spooky, it should be Archive 81 or Hereditary
One of the great things Netflix has done is help push people toward non american live action content.
As for Squid Game, something that made it very appealing/relatable was broke people desperate for money. Wouldnt have hit the same with wealthy people in the games
you know what, there will be Squid Game american version directed by David Fischer😂 idk why they make it, because from my pov, squid game is so rich in korean culture😅
NOOOOOOOOOOO!!! now I'm gonna have to wait for all of it to be uploaded 😭😭😭😂😭😭😭😭
so excited to rewatch it with you guys
more kdrama reaction please! 🤩

i highly suggest looking up the exchange rate for won to fully grasp the debt/prize pool it helps understand
Oh boys, so glad to have you watching something I can watch along again with! Was concerned it would be a while but this is music to my ears.
Hopefully this will be your start to watch some more Kdrama
Yay! Excited for this, esp w/ Korean subtitles - great choice
ALICE IN BORDERLAND IS THE HIGHLY RECOMMENDATION AFTER THIS!!!!!
Hasn't seen Squid Game but has seen Mr. Beast Squid Game.
Bro just burn it all down. Time to start over.
if Jack spoils anything he’s dead to me
Has he spoiled before?😭
yall are gonna love alice in borderland
Damn crazy heart stopper injections aka bullets
WHATTT😂 didn't expect you guys react to this😂😂😂😂 but i like it tho
You guys are doing Korean dramas now!!! Let's gooooo
Most infuriating character to me was the main one 😂 but still a good show
I hope you watch Alice In Borderland next which is another popular survival game concept series and MGM+' FROM
yesssssssss so hyped for this
a million won is 724$ so owning 160 million to loan sharks is 116.840 $
I loved this show and can’t wait for season two!
