Well, this is a bit weird - haven't the foggiest why it became so popular....

Even though I recognized them the actors who play Seong GiHun and Cho SangWoo are so completely different from their previous roles in dramas we saw....the first in Chief of Staff 1 and 2 and the second in Prison Playbook....
I've never seen so many articles and talks on cable TV about a Korean drama - not even when Parasite won the Oscar....

I have not watched anything on cable news so I have not seen any commentary about it. I will check it out on Google.

So the Front Man with the fancy mask is Lee ByungHun whom we know from IRIS and Mr Sunshine among others - I do hope we get to see his face....
I am not reading any more until we finish as a lot of articles mention spoilers...
Interestingly, I can understand almost everything the immigrant player says as he speaks so clearly and slowly....without the esubs that is...lol...

Episode 6---My guess is that the thug, the pickpocket girl, San Woo and Gi HUn will be the last 4 players standing

I thought the pickpocket girl didn't have a partner - where did she go??
Those two women - the North Korean and the other one...when the other one told the NK about seeing some movie after she was out - she said Lee ByungHun was in it...lol....
Interesting when Front Man made a phone call, he spoke in Engish...

The pickpocket girl is the one from NK that partnered with the other girl and just sat around talking. It was the annoying slutty girl who had no partner and was dragged away and probably shot.

Oh, you are correct....I guess all the violence got to me...I lost track among the hundreds of dead people....lol...
So only one will be left at the end...is that what happens? An awful lot of money for just one person, I think....
I wonder where the cop who snuck in has got to...he hasn't been shown that much...with all their hi-tech equipment you would think they could find him easily...

One more to go and it had to be a battle between Gi Hun and Sang Ho---Good vs. evil. It was a good twist that Front Man was the cop's brother

Yes, that was quite surprising and I must say Lee ByungHun has looked better. So since the cop brother fell off the cliff, will he end up alive like most of the cliff fallers do? ;-)
