I can't wait to see what this big project you've got in store is! I've only seen the first episode of this series so far, and OH BOY is it intense! I await to see where it goes from there, not only as I watch the rest of the season, but also in future seasons! And it's definitely a blessing that we live in the age of streaming that give us access to foreign cinema that can rival what Hollywood gives us, that way we are not just relegated to narrow venues of entertainment!
I actually just posted the link on Patreon. I'm glad to hear that you're participating in the Squid Game phenomenon! During the first three episodes I found myself really eager to get to the games. The character work and emotional beats really don't land unless you're watching it in Korean with English subtitles. I have no idea why Netflix has the English dub as the default setting for the United States. It does more harm than good. I believe season 2 was just recently confirmed. You're right -- that is one of the biggest benefits of the streaming era. We are getting access to foreign entertainment that has value. Sadly a lot of Americans tend to dismiss anything that isn't made here.
