On the whole I think squid game is overrated and hyped is what I feel. They should have just left it at the season 1.
I still can't watch cause too many people watched it already. I kind of avoid things when there's too many people hyping it
I do the same. I wonder if you know why you do it?
True most of the time they couldnt lived up to the hype （￣へ￣）hm hm
I kind of feel guilty for the underrated ones that got ignored due to the too much hype the other project got. So I start watching them instead. And I don't feel bad cause me not watching is not gonna decrease its popularity anyways. Also, few months after the craze dies down and suddenly everyone start hating the one they were hyping.
Mostly Half the people who hype the popular ones do it cause of the herd culture. They just wanna ride on the wave. But they can't be consistent with it after the craze dies
Got it. And yeah that's how it usually goes. People move on once the hype's over. It's better to watch what we genuinely like.
lots of people dont know but squid games is actually based on a true story that happaned in south korea during 70s and 80s
the case is called "brother's home" and its rlly horrific, sorry if that ruined the mood i js rlly want ppl to know of it
cuz i dont think squid games ever claimed to be based on it officially but the refrences to the case is all there
Idk where to share this so I'm sharing it here. I just completed watching squid game season one was absolute delight I like the mc from the start to the end of the season. The line up of games, the way he thinks to solve the games... everything was awesome. But season 2 felt like it was forced ( I'm not finding the correct word) like they were trying to make it a success like season one but they couldn't.
Why I didn't watch it when it was released? Because I just lose interest when ppl try to hype about something very much.
So what I shared about was just my opinion and I could think of this platform to share this...
