Episode two of Squid Game is “Hell”. Join Player 456’s hosts Jack and Colin as they deep dive into the second episode of Netflix’s most popular show of all time. They offer their insight, thoughts and appreciation, and also cover your questions, queries and theories.
All the players have been deposited back to their normal lives, with some dropped off in pairs (coincidence - we think not). Jack and Colin, again, look at some of the clearest foreshadowing so far from Hwang Dong-hyuk and discuss the theme of “Hell” in more detail.
Compared to English, the Korean language has a different and quite complex system to refer to one another and this is clear with Sang-woo and Ali’s interactions in this episode.
We are briefly introduced to Hwang Jun-ho, who has his own, personal reasons for wanting to ‘enter’ the Squid Game world while further themes such as desperation and suicide are discussed, and the social commentary about capitalism is again clear to see.
