KDMEO Episode 213 - Squid Game Season 2 (오징어게임 2)

January 30
1h 45m

Episode Description

WHAT EXACTLY IS THE PLAN HERE. Judy and Linda discuss season 2 of "Squid Game" (오징어게임), starring Lee JungJae and Lee ByungHun.

 

Next episode will be a First Impressions with "The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call" (중증외상센터), "The Trunk" (트렁크), "When the Phone Rings" (지금 거신 전화는), and "The Queen Who Crowns" (원경).

 

 

Digressions:  

0:52 - Judy has finally acquired a can of pine drink (솔의눈) and we drank it! Our first attempt at ASMR!

9:08 - New Patreon donor and Listener E-mails!

17:44 - "Borderlands" movie is irredeemably awful, and Judy can't figure out who is was made for, other than the actors who were extremely bored during the pandemic.

21:12 - Gasp! Linda watched "Revenant" (악귀) starring Kim TaeRi? New horizons have opened up!

24:02 - "Gladiator II" was so disappointing. If you have such an uncharismatic lead character, who am I supposed to root for? Judy is mad that there isn't enough Pedro Pascal. 

29:03 - Linda finally watched "Mister Sunshine" (미스터 션샤인) and found it to be beautiful but long.

32:40 - Judy's new dinnertime show is "White Collar", starring Matt Bomer and Tim DeKay.

34:50 - Linda watched "Blitz" starring Saoirse Ronan on Apple TV, which is excellent for historical reference but aimless as a film.

37:55 - Judy started playing "Indiana Jones and the Great Circle", and is thrilled that she gets to be the whip-cracking archaeologist. 

40:47 - Linda watched Part 1 of "Alienoid" (외계+인), and found it...interesting.
