The Subtitles Aren’t Accurate
Anyone who has watched or is in the process of watching “Squid Game” with subtitles will be disappointed in learning that the subtitles don’t always convey the real meaning of everything that was said. According to people who speak Korean fluently, in one scene, one of the players attempts to persuade another to play with her by saying “I’m not a genius, but I still got it worked out,” at least according to the subtitles. But what the character actually said was, “I am very smart. I just never got a chance to study.”
