  I am down to the last eppisode of SG 3.

I was not expecting much from Season 3,  Season 2 was definately sub par
compared to Season 1, not just because we were all familiar with the format,
but it lacked a lot of what I felt was some of the darker elements and shock
of the first season.  Which even for a Korean drama had some pretty good shock
moments.

Season 3 while not completely capturing it, did bring back the raw class
warfare, greed, and depravity of the human condition. The irony and sacrifice
of the mother / son sub plot of Guen-Ja and Yong-sik was interesting and heart
wrenching to see to its conclusion.  

The dynamic of the baby being put into the games is also chilling, and is
intruiging to think about from being an outsider who has been able to view
Korean culture while living there for 14 years, and the drastic social changes
that have taken place just in that time span and their plummeting birthrate. 
In a country that had in the past been a collective society and very mindful
of its future as a whole, and the importance of family.  The younger
generation seems more focused on amassing wealth and security for themselves
and keeping up with the latest tech and fashion trends than tradition family
roles/values, and ultimately the continuation of their society.

Looking forward to watching the final eppisode.

Have you seen any of The Squid Games series?  What are your thoughts?
