The #1 Netflix show right now. The only Netflix show to be #1 in 93 out of 93 countries at the same time. The highest number of views for any returning Netflix show. It is not a flop. Get real.
@@temmison1171Name one intentionally serious scene that was ruined by this comedy. Not something like the grandma's monologue getting interrupted by the door opening, because those scenes are obviously meant to be nothing more than comedy.
@ The Russian roulette man dying in the first episode was brushed off literally eight minutes after his death. The man who survived turns into the comic relief character, constantly making unnecessary jokes. No one in the Squid Game actually seems to take the games seriously, they switch from being sad to cracking ridiculous jokes, even though they just witnessed hundreds of people being mass murdered. The second game was terrible, with the tone being way too upbeat throughout the whole episode, despite the constant threat of death. It doesn’t even come close to the intensity and emotional weight of the second game in the first season.
@@temmison1171 The recruiter is dead. Tf you want them to do with him, mourn him for over 8 minutes lmao? Name one instance where this "comic relief" character "constantly makes unnecessary jokes". The guy clearly takes his job seriously despite his rash personality which we see even before his boss dies. How do people not take the games seriously? Literally the only 2 people that you could possibly consider don't are the 2 that are literally on drugs, while everyone else is either too obsessed with the money to stop or scared for their lives. And saying Episode 5 was "way too upbeat throughout the whole episode" is just cap when the only upbeat parts were when the first team won the game and Gi-hun's group won their's, and that brief happy moment immediately gets shut down with the other team getting gunned down. Did you even watch the show, or did you look up random scenes to give yourself a brief and inaccurate idea of what happened?
FINALLY THANK YOU SOMEONE SAID IT. Even tho players of season 1 like like ali, sae byeok and sangwoo were my favs the season 2 players are also very good and idk why people are saying that its not better than season 1 when i personally liked it more than season 1
Yea and he almost took his life because of the huge amount of hate he got for it from Korean netizens, he has always been my favourite in Bigbang and it made me so sad when I heard how depressed he was. I just wanna tell him you don't deserve to be hated like that, come overseas and see how many people love and will accept you for who you are. It's so sad, he is so talented and seems like a sweet genuine person.
I’m sorry but reviewers are. Nothing more than parasites living off the backs of people that work hard. As a viewer I don’t want your opinion. Personally I thought this was a great season and I watched the whole season in one sitting because it was so exciting. I also hope there is much more in season 3 about wi ha joon. ❤❤❤
@@pass-the-juicesquid games has been lore accurately on here for a long time and the only same game is red light green light and season 2 ending is as crazy as season 1 but different
Don't forget the creator had more time writing the season 1 (since 2009), while for season 2, he only had 2 or 3 years for the making. Also he has stated he didn't planned a second season at first, but since it became popular, he might have been pressured to write a 2nd and 3rd season. Anyway, it was a GOOD season for me, I wanted new games and I got them so I'm satisfied.
lol!! It so didn’t flop! I and many others really loved it!❤❤❤ The actors were wonderful and there are a lot of hypocrites out there judging these people with no proof or just hanging on to things that don’t involve them! Just disgusting!
Season 2 was by no means a flop. It's still the top viewed show currently out there, and no matter how bad the criticisms are right now we all know they'll be binge-watching Season 3 when it comes out.
There is no way season 2 can be considered as flop. Right from the storyline, background music, intense moments and twists this was indeed worth watching. And yes they ended it in a way that they could release the season 3. Honestly that ending has all the possibilities to make it a spectacular finish. Fingers crossed 🤞
Who said it's flop the only views I get in my channel most of squid game shorts and video 😮.... I don't feel it as a flop one or a kinda went wrong ...
If I was a scenarist on the show, I would have created a character from the family of the creator (number 1), like a granddaughter who hates her grandpa because he trapped her deadbeat father (his own son) into the a round of the game years ago. She investigates for years her father’s disappearance and finds out her very own grandfather sentenced him to death via this game. Hence starts her vendetta against him, but is too late because he dies in season 1. She then infiltrates the season 2 games with a false name to destroy the games from the insides. This would have made a more interesting plot 😊
The only people who had a problem with casting are some Korean netizens and it still trended there even if they said they will boycot it.😅.I enjoyed the series. I could say the only thing that hit me was the foul ending leaving so many things open and they should have just put it as part 1 and part 2 otherwise I dont feel like it was a waste to wait 2 years. I feel like season 3 will be the most brutal of all and I am here for it.
I dont get why people find it a flop ! Its all because its in "two parts", like finishing in a cliffanger as if the season wasn't finished and the third is just too long to wait for. Anyway, i loved Park Sung-Hoon.. i liked the crazyness with thanos.. seriously, just because we dont have an ending makes people get frustrated
Dawg, why are Netflix series ALWAYS so short? I still remember series like Supernatural having 26 episodes per season but oh no not Netflix. Are they allergic to making LONG seasons, geez.
I honestly don't miss theCW/WB 20-24 episode seasons. Almost every show boiled down to the first 2, midseason finale, and last 2 episodes having any significance to the plot, while the rest was tedious, and repetitive filler. Also, the reason shows like Supernatural were able to have those mamy episodes is due to how much cheaper they are produce. You don't get Squid Game or Stranger Things quality on theCW.
Season 2 will never be as good as the 1st one. Season 2 is good 👍🏿. It will never be equal the hype of the first one. “It’s never as good as the first time”Season 3 will end the series so of course season 2 will end on a cliffhanger. I loved the continuation of the story, new characters and their stories. Enjoy the show for what it is.
Spoiler alert: I might be weird, but I hate Squid Game Season 2. The plot doesn't make any sense, and the main character drives me mad. (No offense, but) the MC is ridiculously dumb. He acts like a 12-year-old boy-so naive, thinking everyone needs to survive and that he has to stop the game all the time. Like, seriously, when you're desperate, drowning in debt, it's a do-or-die situation. What's the point of going back to the real world just to be chased by debt collectors again? How old is he, anyway? He should understand by now that these people need the money. It's not just about surviving with no cash-he can't help them, so he should just stay out of it. And then he asks people to help him attack the guards? Like, what the hell? He knows there are hundreds of guards, in the middle of a killing war between X and O, and he still drags a few people to fight against them 😭🤣🤣. I just can't with this. Imagine you're there, risking your life for money, and this weird MC asks you to throw your life away attacking the guards for no reason. Lmao, what's with this plot??
Same!! yea, I really thought season 2 was just written poorly. I think it suffers from the fact it's very obvious plot armor that certain characters have. For example, no matter what happens to the main character, he's not going to die, same for the main bad guy, the pregnant girl, and the trans (because, we can't kill trans people on tv). And the whole voting process was there for no reason because it adds no suspense at all, it's obvious to the viewer that they are going to continue because otherwise the show ends. Same with the contestants beating the game with 1 second remaining on the clock, give it a rest, it's used at least 4 times from what I can remember. And you're right, the entire premise is that all the contestants need money and THAT IS WHY THEY PLAY. But then you have the main character say "Nah we got to end this game, and attack the masked people". And instead of everybody saying, "Nah we need the money, lets vote or keep going". They do it?.. they agree to attack because?... "Nah forget about the money let's just use our infinite bullets to shoot at masked people"?
Oh and then you have that "MaRiNe" "SoLdIeR" guy. That holds his gun over his head, spraying all his bullets. And another guy has to remind him not to do that because he will run out of bullets. 🙄
Actually the problem is that the players knew more the games in this season than in season 1 , also at the very end most of them were either very subtle about money or the just wanted to go home , everyone thought that they'll go out safely that's why they were certainly relieved . Still Gi Hun managed to get so many people by his side to end the games , if the Frontman wasn't the Frontman they would've made it too , he was a strong individual. The only bad part about the season was that it left out a cliffhanger which is only because THERE IS a season 3 so reasonable enough .
I thought season 2 was great and expanded on the first season as all great sequels must. Darker unfinished ending doesn't bother me, this is basically the empire strikes back for squid games. All of your other complaints are just surface level things which do not matter.
Omg just because you dont like it doesnt mean its flopped , its #1 in 93 countries on Netflix , trending all over the internet and super thrilling , you got problems with the cast , keep it , we are here to judge their acting , not their personal lives!!!!
Korean audience is very smart They are not blindly followers of celebrities just like indians We indians always forgive dirtiest sins of many bollywood actors
The 2nd season isn't perfect but it's definitely NOT a flop to me. The 2nd season is as entertaining and thrilling as the 1st season. It makes sense they should make another season even after season 2. There's so much potential with the characters and the world building. The season 2 ending feels like it needs one last episode rather than a cliffhanger. It feels unfinished.
I liked season 2 better. I was kinda bored with season 1. Ive already watched Battle Royale and Alice in Borderland which was more high intense and emotional impact for me. I like season 2 because its less focused on the games and more of an actual plan takedown . They should have done something different the detectives story though. It feels like all he did was pointless and hes back at step one doing the same thing he did last season
Oh lord I need to rant on this. Sorry for the thesis I'm about to write. Season 2 was an absolute hit, and every "complaint" can easily be explained. -Netflix not announcing season two and three was one season split up into two parts was the main reason that this was considered a disappointment. Giving us a heads up would have made the ending much more bearable. -Thanos' over the "top" obnoxious acting was distracting. I couldn't stand him the first time, but he did play a tweeker pretty well. Watching a second time he was more entertaining and less annoying. -The amount of players with connections was addressed in the first episode when the loan shark said many of his debtors have gone missing. Which would explain they were in the same area with higher chances of knowing someone. Gi-Hun's friend used the same loan shark. - People complaining about the first two episodes being too long and not on the island have to understand they were need to explain what happened after season one ended and how they get back to the island. Also, seeing the psycho side of the Recruiter was an unexpected bonus. -Saying a second season wasn't needed or a let down is ridiculous. After the first season came out, there was a huge demand for a second season. Having both the second and third season written within 2 years and being the #1 most watched show disproves those statements. -The cop on the boat did feel unnecessary and boring, However I think he was put in every episode so the viewers don't forget about him. (Game of Thrones fans will remember the joke about the theory of the character Genry rowing a boat for 3 seasons) -All Netizens' "Controversies" should be completely ignored. Korean and International netizens blow everything out of proportion and don't understand that this show was made for both Korean and International fans. Both have many opposing culturally and socially accepted views. Korean netizens are conservative to the point that cancel culture is practically an Olympic sport, and tend to boycott any celebrity over incidences, whether they be real or just rumors, that seem incidental to the international community. Also, International fans put so much emphasis on inclusiveness, don't understand that Korea's entertainment industry is also conservative and not as LGBT forward. So finding a Korean trans actor is nearly impossible. Even playing a gay or trans character can ruin an actor's career. -That being said, I really enjoyed this season and can't wait for the next one. Thankfully we get it later this years and not have to wait 3 more years.
Netizens, the world’s cockroaches? The destroyers of careers? Who cares what they say. TOP, did his time and apologize. Lee Jin Wook was declared NOT GUILTY! Season 2 was great!
Lee Jin Wook was never convicted for SA due to lack of evidence, yet people still want him cancelled and his career ruined? That’s insane. I guess for K-netizens, men are automatically guilty even when proven innocent.
@@aespa4genleaders584 Where is the evidence The only thing I found was that he drank champagne with her in some club and he went to his home. ¯\_ಠ_ಠ_/¯
It's not a flop and the new characters were alright. The problem is with the ending, it ended to abruptly. It basically had no ending... It's errrrr scratch head, what was that??
NOT a flop! Once again, sanctimonious pearl clutchers are bloody annoying with their cancel culture. TOP was supposed to be cringe, it's his role and he did a very good job! The scene of Russian roulette in Ep1 was mind-blowing (no pun intended) and The Front Man being part of the game was genius, so I personally was NOT disappointed and looking forward to S3! I take it all the negative nellies out there aren't watching American movies anymore because there, ALL of them are corrupted to the core!
Give T.O.P. some mercy. His criminal history is a Korean Rapper that used Marijuana? Korea, allow me to introduce you to Snoop Dogg. He carried the USA Torch at the Olympics And T.O.P. PAID his debt to society, and society still does not forgive? In a show about how merciless society can be to debtors or the mistake makers? "We only hire the most successful that everyone likes already, to act as the downtrodden pain filled cannon fodder for our "second chance" gladiatorial games". So here is a rapper that fell because of drugs, playing a rapper that fell, and making sure that no one glamorizes or "likes" the drugs part. He may be the most REAL squid game contestant
I'm glad I am not the only one who thought T.O.P's acting was too unnaturally extra and really cringe. Especially with him having such similarities with the character Thanos. His scense were off putting i could have done without his character all together or they could have hired a real actor instead
it didn´t flop. Me and many of my friends loved it and watched the whole season immediately in 1-2 days lol😭 and all the feedback I saw online was quite positive
It’s NOT a flop. Such an exaggeration. Worlwide audiences enjoyed it. I think a lot of korean netizens are expecting the same hype as season 1. The novelty has died down but the squid game series is still a good quality series. Korean netizens just are too much
I think she's focusing towards how many koreans and netizens feel about the show and casting. Especially since in the US you probably wouldn't have known who Lee Jin Wook is and the controversy. Maybe it didn't do that well in Korea. (this is a guess I am not Korean nor do I live there.) Also many South Korean people are mad that the show casted a straight male actor as a transgender woman. Tbh I liked the show but some of my friends didn't. (see? split opinions. just cause you like it doesn't mean everyone else likes it.) I mean also the ending. Big cliffhanger and now we have to wait like another 3 years until the next season.
Hmm…not sure if it truly flopped. I know people really expected a lot more, and there was some controversy here and there, but now that those who watched it are aware of how the season is split, and the finale will be coming soon this year, overall, it’s alright. This show is going to be one of those memorable series for the ages, much like a lot of highly rated HBO and FX shows are.
No one but anti woke crybabies hated it. Truth is the series was better then series 1 and was simply a masterpiece despite people wanting to hate it when it really is hard to hate perfection
It didn't flopped but it was definitely not on season 1 level. Season 1 was really emotional and every scene was great. This one had a lot of unnecessary scenes and you could see whats gonna happen from a mile away. Like nothing was unexpected. The characters that seemed interesting became forgotten like the dynamic between the dad and the square girl, he just got killed for no reason. Thanos was interesting and they killed him for an uninteresting crypto scammer. Thanos's friend who killed that one girl by stabbing her in the neck was bland and one dimensional. The only character that I actually do care about other than Gi Hun was Gi Hun's friend who got killed in the final episode. He was interesting and funny and they just killed him off. Leaving us with a scared fake soldier, a grandma and her son that are kinda boring, a trans person with the most basic ass personality and story and some old dude. Also many characters were stupid af. In s1 voting made sense because we had a whole episode showing why they came back to the game. Here it just doesm't make any sense its like one side is cheering. In s1 people voted to stay but were still sad about it. In s1 there were yakuza thugs so it made sense that they didn't care about killing people, here people just killed so easily. Also, why didn't Gi Hun's friend tell on gamemaster after he snapped dude's neck? Another reason why s2 was kinda bad is that the whole search team stuff was completely useless and stupid and it was obvious that the captain of the ship was a bad guy, but it was foreshadowed kinda badly. But that whole part with the search team was just stupid. And also the voting oarts were so dragged out and were easily skippable for the most.
I can’t believe squid games had to ruin the season 2 For me by bringing this BS Trans Conversation even into the show. the old ladies reaction when she first met him is exactly what mine is
The controversies might be relevant to the ever outraged K netizens, but not to the rest of the international audience. The stats prove the popularity, but I suppose this is mainly to get some attention.
That's very very false. Squid Game season 1 was the most viewed show in Netflix history. Season 2 is on pace to break those viewership numbers. Plenty of their shows flopped and got cancelled. You clearly have no idea what you're talking about. And it had plenty of viral moments and trended and there are already tons of memes about it. Cope. Everyone agrees it wasn't as good as season 1, but it's still a massive success. You can look the viewership numbers up for yourself. The most watched Netflix show ever was Squid Game season 1. The 2nd most watched was Wednesday season 2. The third most watched was Squid Game season 3.
There goes the black sheep in your record…proof saying whatever just won’t suffice sometimes honestly some ktubers need to get their shit together sometimes they will just spew nonsense and pull of criticism from their ass just to gain views crazyy
Flop? U mean the drama that topped netflix reviews in 93 out of 93 countries? I'm sorry but you should get your resources straight. The show was amazing and some opinions from a minority of k netizens won't mmake the show a "flop" I personally loved it and can't stop rewatching it. I watched it in one sitting too.

The only bad part about the season was that it left out a cliffhanger which is only because THERE IS a season 3 so reasonable enough .
I thought season 2 was great and expanded on the first season as all great sequels must. Darker unfinished ending doesn't bother me, this is basically the empire strikes back for squid games. All of your other complaints are just surface level things which do not matter.
Omg just because you dont like it doesnt mean its flopped , its #1 in 93 countries on Netflix , trending all over the internet and super thrilling , you got problems with the cast , keep it , we are here to judge their acting , not their personal lives!!!!
Korean audience is very smart
They are not blindly followers of celebrities just like indians
We indians always forgive dirtiest sins of many bollywood actors
The 2nd season isn't perfect but it's definitely NOT a flop to me. The 2nd season is as entertaining and thrilling as the 1st season. It makes sense they should make another season even after season 2. There's so much potential with the characters and the world building. The season 2 ending feels like it needs one last episode rather than a cliffhanger. It feels unfinished.
i dont think squid game s2 is flopped, the "critics" u mention is not even critics they just hatin
Season two is honestly better than season one by a lot
No
Season 2 was great, FAR FROM a "flop". Man... Hating on popular things to get attention is OLD!
wouldn't call it a "Flop" but def felt how it dragged and how "season 2" just felt unfinished
Bro if thats a flop idk then
I liked season 2 better. I was kinda bored with season 1. Ive already watched Battle Royale and Alice in Borderland which was more high intense and emotional impact for me. I like season 2 because its less focused on the games and more of an actual plan takedown .
They should have done something different the detectives story though. It feels like all he did was pointless and hes back at step one doing the same thing he did last season
I agree with everything you’ve said. The side story felt like filler to me and too similar to the first season
yall be saying anything.
squid game S02 made same noise as the s01
No it didnt, not even close
Is 68 million Views In 4 days considered a "flop" Now? It's a hit internationally
I think they should have combined both parts into one season for it to feel complete and satisfying.
It has not flopped ,has billion watch time in Netflix more than any kdrama
Oh lord I need to rant on this. Sorry for the thesis I'm about to write. Season 2 was an absolute hit, and every "complaint" can easily be explained.
-Netflix not announcing season two and three was one season split up into two parts was the main reason that this was considered a disappointment. Giving us a heads up would have made the ending much more bearable.
-Thanos' over the "top" obnoxious acting was distracting. I couldn't stand him the first time, but he did play a tweeker pretty well. Watching a second time he was more entertaining and less annoying.
-The amount of players with connections was addressed in the first episode when the loan shark said many of his debtors have gone missing. Which would explain they were in the same area with higher chances of knowing someone. Gi-Hun's friend used the same loan shark.
- People complaining about the first two episodes being too long and not on the island have to understand they were need to explain what happened after season one ended and how they get back to the island. Also, seeing the psycho side of the Recruiter was an unexpected bonus.
-Saying a second season wasn't needed or a let down is ridiculous. After the first season came out, there was a huge demand for a second season. Having both the second and third season written within 2 years and being the #1 most watched show disproves those statements.
-The cop on the boat did feel unnecessary and boring, However I think he was put in every episode so the viewers don't forget about him. (Game of Thrones fans will remember the joke about the theory of the character Genry rowing a boat for 3 seasons)
-All Netizens' "Controversies" should be completely ignored. Korean and International netizens blow everything out of proportion and don't understand that this show was made for both Korean and International fans. Both have many opposing culturally and socially accepted views. Korean netizens are conservative to the point that cancel culture is practically an Olympic sport, and tend to boycott any celebrity over incidences, whether they be real or just rumors, that seem incidental to the international community. Also, International fans put so much emphasis on inclusiveness, don't understand that Korea's entertainment industry is also conservative and not as LGBT forward. So finding a Korean trans actor is nearly impossible. Even playing a gay or trans character can ruin an actor's career.
-That being said, I really enjoyed this season and can't wait for the next one. Thankfully we get it later this years and not have to wait 3 more years.
Wht r u on? Its nt a flop
how is this a flop??
Ur channel is flop not the squid gamd
I loved season 2 so much!
it most definitly did not flop. I enjoyed it❤
Netizens, the world’s cockroaches? The destroyers of careers? Who cares what they say. TOP, did his time and apologize. Lee Jin Wook was declared NOT GUILTY! Season 2 was great!
Lee Jin Wook was never convicted for SA due to lack of evidence, yet people still want him cancelled and his career ruined? That’s insane. I guess for K-netizens, men are automatically guilty even when proven innocent.
really?? theres no evidence??
@@aespa4genleaders584
Where is the evidence
The only thing I found was that he drank champagne with her in some club and he went to his home. ¯\_ಠ_ಠ_/¯
It's not a flop and the new characters were alright. The problem is with the ending, it ended to abruptly. It basically had no ending... It's errrrr scratch head, what was that??
NOT a flop! Once again, sanctimonious pearl clutchers are bloody annoying with their cancel culture. TOP was supposed to be cringe, it's his role and he did a very good job! The scene of Russian roulette in Ep1 was mind-blowing (no pun intended) and The Front Man being part of the game was genius, so I personally was NOT disappointed and looking forward to S3! I take it all the negative nellies out there aren't watching American movies anymore because there, ALL of them are corrupted to the core!
Give T.O.P. some mercy. His criminal history is a Korean Rapper that used Marijuana?
Korea, allow me to introduce you to Snoop Dogg. He carried the USA Torch at the Olympics
And T.O.P. PAID his debt to society, and society still does not forgive?
In a show about how merciless society can be to debtors or the mistake makers?
"We only hire the most successful that everyone likes already, to act as the downtrodden pain filled cannon fodder for our "second chance" gladiatorial games". So here is a rapper that fell because of drugs, playing a rapper that fell, and making sure that no one glamorizes or "likes" the drugs part.
He may be the most REAL squid game contestant
I'm sorry it didn't flopp
it is not a flop wdym, it is perfect like season 1
I'm glad I am not the only one who thought T.O.P's acting was too unnaturally extra and really cringe. Especially with him having such similarities with the character Thanos. His scense were off putting i could have done without his character all together or they could have hired a real actor instead
it didn´t flop. Me and many of my friends loved it and watched the whole season immediately in 1-2 days lol😭 and all the feedback I saw online was quite positive
What are you talking about?!!
It was not that bad, but it was not great. Season 1 was too good. They should have used more storylines from Kaiji as they did for Season 1.
How this flop? This was better than Season1. I watched this 4 times already!!!
I loved it even more than the first.
It’s NOT a flop. Such an exaggeration. Worlwide audiences enjoyed it. I think a lot of korean netizens are expecting the same hype as season 1. The novelty has died down but the squid game series is still a good quality series. Korean netizens just are too much
I think she's focusing towards how many koreans and netizens feel about the show and casting. Especially since in the US you probably wouldn't have known who Lee Jin Wook is and the controversy. Maybe it didn't do that well in Korea. (this is a guess I am not Korean nor do I live there.) Also many South Korean people are mad that the show casted a straight male actor as a transgender woman. Tbh I liked the show but some of my friends didn't. (see? split opinions. just cause you like it doesn't mean everyone else likes it.) I mean also the ending. Big cliffhanger and now we have to wait like another 3 years until the next season.
The next season of squid game is coming on 2025 fourth quarter.
@@aashleshateke4906 oh thats great
Hmm…not sure if it truly flopped. I know people really expected a lot more, and there was some controversy here and there, but now that those who watched it are aware of how the season is split, and the finale will be coming soon this year, overall, it’s alright.
This show is going to be one of those memorable series for the ages, much like a lot of highly rated HBO and FX shows are.
I don't know but i like this season more than the previous one
It’s not a flop, where you getting that from?
100%! I ALWAYS SAY THEY SHOULD CAST A REAL MURDERER TO ACT A KILLER!!! WHAT!? What do you mean "acting">?!?!?
your video flopped 😂 not squid game 2 😂🎉
I agree
Tbh it wasnt as good as the first but still pretty good. Tbh it needed more episodes, feels liek s3 was supposed to be in season 2
No one but anti woke crybabies hated it. Truth is the series was better then series 1 and was simply a masterpiece despite people wanting to hate it when it really is hard to hate perfection
It didn't flopped but it was definitely not on season 1 level. Season 1 was really emotional and every scene was great. This one had a lot of unnecessary scenes and you could see whats gonna happen from a mile away. Like nothing was unexpected. The characters that seemed interesting became forgotten like the dynamic between the dad and the square girl, he just got killed for no reason. Thanos was interesting and they killed him for an uninteresting crypto scammer. Thanos's friend who killed that one girl by stabbing her in the neck was bland and one dimensional. The only character that I actually do care about other than Gi Hun was Gi Hun's friend who got killed in the final episode. He was interesting and funny and they just killed him off. Leaving us with a scared fake soldier, a grandma and her son that are kinda boring, a trans person with the most basic ass personality and story and some old dude. Also many characters were stupid af. In s1 voting made sense because we had a whole episode showing why they came back to the game. Here it just doesm't make any sense its like one side is cheering. In s1 people voted to stay but were still sad about it. In s1 there were yakuza thugs so it made sense that they didn't care about killing people, here people just killed so easily. Also, why didn't Gi Hun's friend tell on gamemaster after he snapped dude's neck? Another reason why s2 was kinda bad is that the whole search team stuff was completely useless and stupid and it was obvious that the captain of the ship was a bad guy, but it was foreshadowed kinda badly. But that whole part with the search team was just stupid. And also the voting oarts were so dragged out and were easily skippable for the most.
JUST WAIT until the next season is out (in like June btw), but this show is a banger.
I can’t believe squid games had to ruin the season 2 For me by bringing this BS Trans Conversation even into the show. the old ladies reaction when she first met him is exactly what mine is
Squid Game 2 biggest disaster flop of the Year 2024..😂😂
It absolutely didn't. It's incredible!!
top was funny as hell
The controversies might be relevant to the ever outraged K netizens, but not to the rest of the international audience. The stats prove the popularity, but I suppose this is mainly to get some attention.
every high budget show netflix claims as number 1. its no suprise. plus it didn't had any viral moments or trended. the hype died down very quickly
That's very very false. Squid Game season 1 was the most viewed show in Netflix history. Season 2 is on pace to break those viewership numbers. Plenty of their shows flopped and got cancelled. You clearly have no idea what you're talking about. And it had plenty of viral moments and trended and there are already tons of memes about it. Cope. Everyone agrees it wasn't as good as season 1, but it's still a massive success. You can look the viewership numbers up for yourself. The most watched Netflix show ever was Squid Game season 1. The 2nd most watched was Wednesday season 2. The third most watched was Squid Game season 3.
@@UKKam1979 wrong! its second week views dropped significantly. almost 60% decline compared to 1st. look it up
It's not a flop because I still enjoyed squid game season 2 alot and great video MISS-K-DRAMA :]
Squid game 2 flopped no you're wrong miss k drama
I'm really tired of these negative drama channels.
Man it was better than season 1
It's not a flop
Koreans doesnt like seeing themselves in the likes of this kind of this series. 🤷♀️
I enjoyed Season 2 just as much as 1.
The ‘controversial’ decision to hire a former drug addict. That’s the big controversy? What’s this rubbish?😂😂😂
There goes the black sheep in your record…proof saying whatever just won’t suffice sometimes honestly some ktubers need to get their shit together sometimes they will just spew nonsense and pull of criticism from their ass just to gain views crazyy
Dear, it's not a flop 😅
Guilty without proof? 🤡🤡🤡🤡
Flopped? It was better than s1 actually it was indeed so good
It wasn't even close to season 1
It flopped?!? Girl bye.
I LOVE SQUID GAME SEASON 2 WHAT IS DRAMA ON ABOUT?
Flop? U mean the drama that topped netflix reviews in 93 out of 93 countries? I'm sorry but you should get your resources straight. The show was amazing and some opinions from a minority of k netizens won't mmake the show a "flop" I personally loved it and can't stop rewatching it. I watched it in one sitting too.
It topped because of season 1's quality and because people binge watched it
Y’all are just finding faults to find faults it was a great season
Was an excellent show can not wait for season 3
lol it didn’t flop it was part 1 of season 2 and is incredible 🎉
BY FLOPPED, ITS NUMBER ONE IN ALMOST EVERY COUNTRY STOP WITH THIS BULL CRAP
Flopped? The whole comment section says otherwise 😂
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️THANOS MADE THE ENTIRE SHOW ❤❤❤❤❤❤ GO T.O.P 👑 ♥️♥️♥️💕💕💕💕
Left “medicines” baffled? What is with this AI UA-cam channel crap?
