00:00The main character says, I will find you as Liam Neeson does
00:16This is a vengeance story, the main character says, I will find you as Liam Neeson does
00:25And I want to know if you talked about Liam Neeson and that movie
00:30And why Korean movie and series about Vengeance are so good
00:37Why you love so much Vengeance
00:40I think it's a little bit different in the case of Kyun's story
00:48Because it's not about personal Vengeance
00:50He's not trying to avenge for any kind of personal damage that he's been going through
00:56When in a greater context, it's more about putting an end to those who created the game
01:02Putting an end to the system that is capitalism
01:05And so because that is where his Vengeance comes from
01:09I think you have to look at it from a different perspective
01:12Of comparing it to personal Vengeance stories
01:25And the recruiter is a total chaos
01:28It's almost like Joker when they say that some men just want to see the world burn
01:35Why in your TV show, some men just want to kill people
01:40Just want to see the world burn
01:42Do you believe that it's true also in our world?
01:45It's also true
01:50I don't think that that is the approach that I would take for Squid Game
01:56Because when I created these VIPs and those that are behind the games
02:00I thought of them as being the highest ones in the ladder of the capitalist society
02:06Leaders of countries, those that have the most amount of wealth
02:09They're the ones who maintain and control this system
02:13Where they make money and wealth off of all of the labor of those that are lower in the pyramid
02:20And they maintain their wealth thanks to all of their pain and labor
02:24It's not to say that they enjoy watching other people in pain
02:29But it is to say that they don't really care about the pain that others go through
02:33Because they honestly believe that we are living in a free labor market
02:38Where people are paid what they are worth
02:41And they don't go through any kind of pain or damage because of them
02:47So it's a little bit different from the villainous characters that Joker is trying to portray
02:52It's more about the social injustice
03:00I think that Squid Game, the games are so scary for us because they associate something that we enjoy when
03:09we are kids to violence
03:11So do you believe that we learn how to be violent when we are kids?
03:17Or the games are like a school to understand what we will face when we were grown up?
03:32I think children's games, when you play them as children, it's literally for play
03:37And through these games, kids can learn how to work with one another, how to collaborate
03:42They can also learn to be fierce fighters, you know, wanting to win
03:45And also they gain physical strength as well through that kind of play
03:49So it's pure playing
03:51The games that we are talking about in Squid Game, when it comes to the game and the rule
03:57It's really more about a metaphor or an allegory to what happens in the actual competitive society
04:03Where those that lose in the competition are driven to poverty, to disease
04:08And they die, you know, as these so-called losers of the competition game
04:14So it's more allegorical violence that's told in the story
04:18And I would hope for the viewers to accept it as more allegory or a metaphor rather than having just
04:29actual violence
04:29Thank you so much
04:35Thank you so much
04:59Thank you so much
