Just, why? The story would be entirely fine without them at all. They are horrible actors, their dialogue is cringey, and it seems their only criteria for being hired was their ability to speak English. Are they supposed to be comedy relief? Because they aren't funny. Are they supposed to portray the ultra rich? Because they look more like a group of extras from Mad Max. Just WHY??? Surely, there were some English speaking natives on the team that could've advised the director to not include these actors. Korean shows have come a long way since the 90s. It is NO LONGER ACCEPTABLE TO HIRE ACTORS FOR FOREIGN ROLES BASED SOLELY ON THEIR ABILITY TO SPEAK THE LANGUAGE. The rest of Squid Game is great but including these actors really reflects negatively on the director.

This episode in general was decent. Really moving in places. But what the hell have they done to the VIPs?

Their voices sound dubbed over, and it usually doesn't match with their mouth movements well. It really takes you out of any scene they're in.

The woman VIP in particular barely moves her mouth but whoever has clearly voiced her over is annunciating a lot more.

I appreciate the translation from Korean to English may not be spot on or sound natural in the script, but there was no need for them to totally butcher them like this. It's really poorly done and I expect better from a show that is one of the biggest on Netflix.

Adding the non korean actors is a very poor choice. They were so cringey to watch because of their amateur acting even the asian actress that was added. They should have stick to the local scene. Its the final series, they should have thought about this through. They dont look like millionaires or rich ones. They look like wanna be's. By this time it was too late to change but I just need to say that it was a really bad choice. They could have come up with something better than this storyline than "acting mediocre" to be someone they cant even portray. So disappointing to watch on the very final leg of the series.

This episode keeps the season's intensity high, but it also starts to show some signs of formula fatigue. Visually, it's stunning. The new game they introduce is creative, tense, and very well shot. The direction builds suspense really effectively-Squid Game still nails that feeling of danger in every second.

What I liked the most was the emotional depth some characters begin to show. You can tell that past decisions are starting to weigh heavily on them, which adds a human layer to the chaos. There are moments that really hit emotionally, though I wish the episode had slowed down just a bit to let them breathe more.

There are also some powerful scenes near the end-can't say too much without spoilers-but they explore serious themes like guilt, forgiveness, and moral limits in a very raw, compelling way.

What didn't quite work for me was the pacing. Everything feels a bit rushed, like the episode tries to squeeze too much emotion and action into a short amount of time. And the formula of "intense game + dramatic moment" is starting to feel a bit repetitive, which takes away some of the unpredictability.

All in all, "It's Not Your Fault" is a solid episode with strong performances, impressive visuals, and a few standout scenes. But it also shows that the series needs to start taking new risks if it wants to keep surprising us. Good, but not my favorite.

I really liked Episode 3 of Season 3 of Squid Game, it was super entertaining and had a lot of impact on the overall story. The tension, the pacing, the visuals,everything just hit the right notes for me. It felt like one of those episodes that sticks with you, especially with how the plot starts to shift in more intense directions.

That said, the VIPs honestly kind of ruined parts of it for me. I get that they're supposed to represent the ultra-wealthy and show how detached they are from the games, but their dialogue just feels... off. They talk like NPCs in a bad video game, super stiff, awkward, and really unnatural. It almost sounds like the lines were dubbed in after the fact, which makes their scenes feel weirdly out of place compared to the rest of the show, which is usually so grounded and well-acted.

It's frustrating because the rest of the episode is so strong, but every time the VIPs show up, it kind of kills the momentum. I feel like with better writing or delivery, they could've actually added something chilling or creepy. Instead, they just feel kind of cartoonish. Still love the episode overall, but man, those parts took me out of it a bit.
