A giant animatronic doll sings the Korean phrase for Red Light, Green Light.
Adults in green tracksuits have the length of the jingle to move forward and stop before the doll turns.
The ones who dont stop in time?
(Also, poor Ga-yeong.)
(The penniless losers?
They get off with the low price of a slap to the face.)
Gi-hun is not good.
Its enough to push him to call the phone number.
The recruiter asks if he wants to participate in the game.
with all the other players wearing the same green jumpsuits with numbers on them (Gi-hun is 456).
Its here that theyre told theyll be playing in the innocent kids game Red Light, Green Light.
Suddenly, getting through the round means surviving as much as it means getting a chance at the money.
The lingering shots of the puppets and the observing game master go a smidge too long and extravagant.
For a show this inventive, it leans a little too close to something weve all seen before.
Luckily, our main characters survive.
And for some reason, the elderly man who smiled way too much during the round.
Public outcry around the film even got a law passed in South Korea.
Im excited to make my Vulture debut recapping this show!
