For Simon's name, say "Seamonster", but drop the "ster" at the end.
I’m so glad you’re watching this!
The Swedish audio 100% has better acting, honestly. The actors did do their own English dubbing, but the voiceover still loses a lot of the subtlety and emotion that helps make the series so powerful.
Wilhelms mother is the queen, and his dad is just a prince. He was married into the royal family and the queen was born crown princess (as Erik is the crown prince).
non-res means someone who doesn't live at the school. so basically in sweden most of the schools have free education, so all the rich kids in this school pay for residency but simon and and sara got in there on scholarship and live at home cause they can't afford boarding at the school. so they're considered from a "lower class" and thus looked down upon by the other rich kids. also no, sara doesn't work at the stables, all the horses in that stable are owned by the other kids at that school, but sara doesn't have one of her own so she tried to help in taking care of the horse (felice's horse) so she can ride it sometimes.
Slight correction: Simon and Sara don’t need a scholarship because the school only charges for boarding, but they live in town. There is no tuition, so they don’t have to pay for anything other than maybe testing fees. They would have to get good grades in order to get in, though
Fun Fact, the actress who plays the Queen in this series is Shmi Skywalker, Anakins mum. "Non-res" is Non-resident of the boarding house.
I remember her from the Netflix show Glitch but didn't make the Star Wars connection.
Derek, no spoilers but Omar Rudberg(Simon) is really a singer. He was in a Swedish boy band called FO&O. He also just released his first new solo album called OMR. Omar can speak Spanish, Swedish and English. This is also Omar 's very first acting job. Your dislike of August is warranted but the actor is really a very nice person, kind of like Sebastian Croft (Ben) in Heartstopper.
I am far too old to be as obsessed as I am with Omar Rudberg! My UA-cam search history is an embarrassment 😅
"Non-res" means " Non-residential"
Students that don't live in the school!
I also hate when shows just drop the subtitles when someone speaks English! It's like you have to suddenly change how you process it and I prefer to have English subtitles on for shows in English as well so whenever they disappear I suddenly panic that I won't hear anything and miss stuff because I'm used to just having my crutch there ready to help :D
I'm happy you're watching this! It's such a great show. You already picked up on the chemistry between Wilhelm and Simon - it's there right from the start. When he's listening to Simon singing in the choir, it's the first time that Wilhelm smiles in the whole episode. That's my favorite detail.
THRILLED you're watching this show and BEYOND THRILLED to hear you're going to watch Dark soon!!!!
All great news. Thank you so much!
Dude, you had me in stitches trying to find the word "stable." Well done!!
This show is the master of cliffhangers tbh makes me mad sometimes XD
Happy ur reacting to Young Royals
SKAM is a great show as well
this is one of my favorite shows of all time, I'm excited for you to watch this 😍 I'm swedish so the original audio is obv better imo, but the actors did their own dubs and it's supposedly quite good if you'd prefer switching!
Oh, and non-res stands for non resident and it just means that they don't live at the school and don't have to pay for housing. Going to school (even private/boarding school) is free and accessible for everyone in Sweden. But yeah, Sara and Simon are looked down upon because they're poor.
I learned something knew. I always assumed Simon and Sara got scholarships. So thanks for enlightening me.
Simon and Sara are not ”poor”, but not as rich as the other kids in this school.
I would say that Simons family are ”middle class” as most of the families in Sweden.
Omar Rudberg, who plays Simon, is a Swedish singing star.
The actress who plays the queen played Anakin's mother in the Star Wars series.
OMG YOU RE WATCHING THIS AND THEN WATCHING DARK?! U just made my week so much better. Cannot wait for you to react to those😁
So. Much. This.
Your humor is immaculate
Literally
i really enjoy your reactions ^^ i found your channel bc of Red White and Royal Blue and i love how respectful and open-minded you are
So glad you are reacting to this. I watched your Heartstopper reactions and loved them. And I too was introduced to YR after watching that one. After watching the series in Swedish I watched it again with English dubbing, and it wasn't bad at all. The main actors are all fluent in English and they did that dubbing themselves, which, according to Edwin Ryding who plays Wilhelm, was really fun. Looking forward to the rest of your reactions to this. Interesting plot twists ahead.
. I am so excited you are reacting to the series! I love your reactions to Heartstopper. This is a very different beast as you now know. Buckle in everyone this is gonna be a real roller coaster ride.
Rewatching all the YR reactions before S3 comes out!
this show is GREAT. you'll love it!
Great fan of this show..thanks for reacting. Skandanavian shows are very real. I love the acting...and the fact that the main has acne is so real...we must not forget these boys are only 16-17...pleased you are watching in original language which always shows the real acting abilities..looking forward to next reaction...
Also, just a tip, if you choose ‘English CC’ for closed caption, you get subtitles for everything, including the parts in English.
That's what it's already on
@@SleepyWaffles oh sorry, I’m in Australia so maybe the captioning is different here
Omg finally
According to Collin’s Dictionary:
“A non-resident person is someone who is visiting a particular place but who does not live or stay there permanently”. From what I gathered from my research (googling), I think it refers to the fact that Simon doesn’t live in the school dorms, just attends the classes and eats there :)
Yay!!! So excited for this series.
Your little commentaries are so funny
Watch it with English dub if it works better for you. For Young Royals the cast came back for the English dub so at least the voices match
Yay you're doing young royals! I was one of those people hovering between YR and Dark on the poll so I'd be stoked if you do both. Both very different but amazing shows.
Also I don't know how others feel but I prefer when people hit pause before they speak in reaction videos so they don't miss important details. That might help with keeping up with the subtitles
Yeah I'm definitely not going to pause every time I say something lol. That would add so much time to my overall recording, and would make it way more difficult for the full length people on patreon
In a few episodes from now you will probably wonder how much 5 500 Swedish kronor is, most people reacting to this show do, well it's almost 540 USD. Just in case you wanted to know that.
Tenkiu tenkiu tenkiu!! For reacting to Young Royals..the show that open the door to heartstopper 💗
The owner of 'Imogen Technologies' son is at this school! 😊
So happy to see you reacting to this!!! I was one of the people strongly recommending that you watch it so this made my day.
I haven’t read the other comments yet but some things I wanted to point out. There are no spoilers in my comments. Everything I point out is stuff you should get from the first episode if you watch it hundreds of times like I have.
1. The Queen is the actual monarch so they wanted Wilhelm to sit next to her.
2. Non- res is a student at the school who does not actually live there. Simon and Sara live nearby.
3. The douchy one is August, Wilhelm’s second cousin.
4. Keep an open mind on every character. They are all very complex and you’ll see that as the season unfolds.
5. I don’t believe you’re actually supposed to think negatively about any of the characters. They all have things you will empathize with them for and things that will make you angry. There are a couple of characters that I can’t stand though 😂😂. Micke (Simon’s dad) is not one of them.
6. Omar Rudberg is the guy who plays Simon. He was actually in a very popular Swedish boy band and released a solo album last week. He sings in Swedish, English and Spanish. You should check him out.
7. The chemistry between Simon and Wilhelm is the whole reason I and many others wanted you to watch this.
8. You’ll get used to the language issue. You can try the dubbed version but the emotion is not the same. It’s actually very good for a dub because most of the actors do the English dubs. But it’s still not quite the same as hearing the Swedish. I watch a ton of Scandinavian tv shows because the writers are just so damn good so I barely notice anymore.
9. Someone in the comments of another reactor’s video explained that Simon is pronounced like sea monster minus the ‘ster’ and that’s exactly right.
10. It’s a horse stable.
11. We don’t know all the details of how Simon and Sara ended up at Hillerska. You may have missed it but when they were getting on the bus Sara says she doesn’t want to get held back another year because she’s afraid to go to school. In one interview, Lisa Ambjorn (the writer) explained that Sara is a year older than Simon but she was held back a year because she was bullied and missed a lot of school because she was scared. So her and Simon got scholarships to Hillerska for some reason.
1 -> foreshadowing
11 -> Sara has Asperger syndrome, she was bullied in Marieberg, so probably their mother asked if Hillerska (nearest high school) would accept Sara and Simon. They did. So, Simon is there only because of Sara. He is not actually happy there. But he is pragmatic. He thinks that if I am here, I should make the most of it (getting good grades for his future life).
Such a amazing teen show ♡
Can't wait for season 2 on November
I’m so glad you’re back with another great show to react to!
Non resident. This show is so good - a really mature and sophisticated drama - you can't judge all the characters by first impressions - the whole series surprised me and was full of twists and turns.
Non-res means that the student lives in town and attends classes by day. So, pretty much he doesn't live at the school. :')
Omg I'm Soo excited that you're reacting to this ahhhhh
yessss I've been looking forward to this ✨✨✨
haven't watched this but I'll watch it so i can support your videos. love uuu 💛
Non-res means non residents. So people who don't live at the school. Locals who go there and don't have to pay to live on campus.
They pack A LOT into 6 episodes. I really wish they had two more episodes to give more breathing room for all the stories. I had to rewatch some of the earlier eps to catch up due to the translations/captions. It is annoying but it is worth it.
Budget issues :( Lisa Ambjörn, the head writer, talked about this issue.
@@EmberC I wonder if season 2 is gonna have 8 or 10 episodes now that they (probably) have a bigger budget. Maybe they'll make the 6 episodes thing a mark for this particular show
@@erikperhs_ they announced, it will be 6 episodes again
I'm so glad you are watching this!!!
I would not recommend switching to the dubbed version, as some things get lost there...
Loved your reactions to Hearstopper and now for this. Looking forward to further episodes. Concerning the subtitles, Netflix often and for this show as well offers two sets of subtitles in one language, one of it called close captioned subtitles (cc) which cover all that is spoken, not only non-English (in your case) language. Maybe switching subtitles might help.
wilhelm is unlabled btw
You were cute trying to find the word "stable"❤
I also got annoyed that the English wasn't subbed in the default subtitle track so I switched to the English CC subtitle track for the hearing impaired, but then I had to switch back because there's nothing worse than reading the words "smacking noises" at the bottom of a screen during an emotional makeout scene.
Yeah, watch DARK after YR. It's soo good!
Greetings from Berlin 😎
-if you check the netflix subtitle settings, you'll see there are two for english: the regular subs, and the closed captions. the latter include the english dialogue because they're for the hearing-impaired (the two are slightly different in their translation of the swedish, though, so be aware of that)
-"non-res" means they don't board at the school, they live at home instead
-we don't actually know if they're on a scholarship or not, because school in sweden is free and they don't board, so why would they need a scholarship? but it's never outright mentioned, so who knows
-sara helps out at the stables because she likes horses, but i don't know if it's ever said it's a job, or if she does it for school credit, or if she just volunteers for fun
-yes, they're looked down on because they're not rich (i don't think they're technically below the poverty line, they're just working class, unlike all the rich kids at school)
Lisa, the head writer, said they are not scholarship students. Sweden provides free education but boarding needs tuition fees. That is why Sara and Simon are non-res kids. Sara was bullied so they ended up at the nearest school to their home (which is Hillerska) other than their old school (Marieberg, which Sara was heavily bullied). Simon is here, at Hillerska, to protect Sara.
Happy to see this!! Oh and I found it easier to watch the dubbed version.the actors did their own dubs so it’s really good and you’ll be able to follow much easier. … Looking forward to seeing more 😊
Listen, as much as you don’t like August now, just trust me…he gets SO MUCH WORSE.
Btw non-res is non resident. Simon and his sister don’t live at the school like the others because they wouldn’t be able to afford it
❤️
It takes a moment to get exactly what's going on with all the characters... but before you know it you'll be completely invested 😁 I've watched it both in Swedish with English subs and with the English dub and enjoyed both (especially since the actual actors did their own English dub so it's their voices you hear).
Hurrah! Hope you enjoy!
Simon's name is pronounced "sea monster" without the -ster
Non Res means he is one of 2 Scholar people and is not sleeping on campus
hi, I'm new on the channel and I just genuinely wondering where you're from? I can't hear it by your accent, sorry 🤪
I’m from Minnesota (USA). But I do a lot of random accents for fun throughout my videos
@@SleepyWaffles oh that's nice!
Non-res might mean non-residential 🤷♂️
Not a normal school. School is free in Sweden. Here posh school. Simon & Sara have scholarship because of good grades. Sara was bullied at school so they changed for her. "Non resident". Horses is just an extra activity for Sara no more.
You are right Wille is a bit outside of the elitist mentality.
Yes Simon (Omar = singer) has a great voice.
True the races are diverse, they are looked down because they are working class kids. Yes their dad is an addict.
Be careful, the writers give you a lot of cliche characters and situations now about rich and so on, but the show is not about cliché, they twist each one. You can change your mind on character along the way. No spoiler.
They do not have scholarship. They are there because Sara was bullied. So she had to change school. Simon is there to protect her. It is free for non-res kids if it is the nearest school to their house (it is the nearest one to Simon & Sara's house).
@@EmberC Of course I know they changed of school for Sara bullying, and need to find a school nearby.
There is nothing to do with the fact they have obviously not the resource to afford a posh school, and need a scholar ship, with good grades, to go there. It is not a public school, and going there is really expensive, not free at all, and I am only talking about following classes.
No confusion, living as resident is something else, not necessary to go to school.
@@openedtodiscussion in sweden, schools are free unless you board. So there is no need for tuition for Simon & Sara. They are not resident there.
It's hard enough to be gay....but to be gay and be royalty....it's def not something we can imagine, but when your entire life is plotted out and choreographed for you and you're expected to just dance like a chimp, it has to be even more stifling.... you're not a person, you're a commodity and a performer for the public.
Wilhelm is unlabelled
@@EmberC He obviously likes boys....youth inherently means ignorance and open to experience.... but considering he is the romantic aggressor....it's safe to say that he is in the LGBT community....as a gay man who was married to a woman for 11 yrs with a daughter and now a granddaughter....even though I played the part, I always knew my label....it just wasn't possible at that time in the 1970's and 80's.......the oppression of Wilhelm's royal requirements are even worse than mine. But....he likes boys, Simon is just the first who caught his eye to the point he was willing to act upon it.
@@EmberC I'm not a member of a cult that demands I use the exact terminology that you or others demand. I meant what I said, it is not offensive, and that's that. Buh-bye. I've been gay longer than you have probably been alive, so please, go find the real enemies you can fight with....you're being tedious.
I watched the first episode both in English and dubbed....I preferred dubbed.... there's something about hearing their language and reading what they said that is more satisfying, but it forces you to be more observant of what's going on while quickly reading...I don't know why, but it helps to put you into their world when you hear their language....in my opinion. Sometimes things are better and more satisfying when it isn't as easy....non-res means non-,resident. It's a more socialistic country, and even the exclusive boarding schools provide an opportunity and discount (or scholarships) for local poorer students....which gives the so called lower class a chance to get opportunities......in America, they just hide behind their country club and rich school walls....eat the fucking rich!!!!!
Just watch it in English it’ll make it a lot easier
Watch it with English dub if it works better for you. For Young Royals the cast came back for the English dub so at least the voices match
