How does violence become the only value in “Houckee 3”?

The first part of the “squid game” dealt with debt and despair issues and the poverty, while the second part focused on the risk of the victim turning into a tool in the same system that he was opposing. As for the third part, it reviews how the human weaknesses can be used by programming. The contestants enter into a fatal experience that mimics reality, within a virtual world designed with a “Call of Duty” and “Black Mirror” and Black Mirror, as their decisions are not only wounded, but also predict.

The work raises a harsh question that in a world governed by predictive algorithms and behavioral data, is the free will still possible? Each level that the players must pass is not only reflects their physical skills or despair, but also reflects the amount of their identity that they want to carry, bite, or lose, while the old moral option between betrayal or cooperation is now controlling other equations.

“Houckee 3” is the most violent and terrifying season, not only because of the escalation of blood games, but because it dives brutally in the depth of human feelings and ideological structure. For 6 episodes, the narration deviates from the idea of ​​the revolution, heading towards an existential personal conflict based on sacrifice, and shows the contradictions of the “FRONTIN” person who controls the course of the game. Events develop from fatal childish games to tragic moral confrontations: from killing children, to suicide, then self -sacrifice.

Personalities like John He and Jum Ja embody the absence of humanity under the weight of fighting in order to survive, while Ji Hoon remains a symbol of the human conscience, refusing to kill innocent people. The open end, with a new American female soldier (Actress Kate Blanchett), is highlighted that the deadly gaming system has not ended, but rather prepares for a more fierce stage.

This season is escalated from the frequency of violence and terror by re -introducing childhood games in distorted formulas, to find the scenes itself in front of a more deadly version of “red light, green light” led by two deadly dolls, and an exaggerated version of the squid game, in which the results are decided by betrayal between the difference.

Ethical tests beyond the possibility

The events begin with the return of Jahun to the games after his failure to take the revolution. The teams are divided into a group that carries keys and others carrying knives, and they are racing in a mysterious maze. Weak characters are killed first, while the spark of betrayal begins between the players. Police investigator Junuhu and his men also appear, trying to reach the island with naval perspectives, but one of them later becomes clear that he is a double agent in favor of the “Introduction Man”.

The game “Jumping on the Cord” is played over a high bridge, amid the monitoring of the Sadia “Important” group. The game is moved with dolls -like masks. Johnhi’s child is born, holding the game of play. Jahun undertakes to protect the child, while a number of players lose their lives. A member called “Gio Nam” is killed after his fall, and J. Hun is subjected to a first moral option to face “from Sue”.

Players face the consequences of the maze episode. Hyun Joe dies after her success in protecting John She and her family, while the clouds of Ja decided to kill her son, Yong Seick, in order to save the mother and the child, and then commit suicide from the severity of the guilt. Jon Hoon kills “Die Ho” suffocating, after feeling “the duty of revenge.” The season concludes with the island’s explosion, and J. Hun sacrifices himself to save the child. Keith Blanchett appears as a new soldier, paving the new global merger of games. After 6 months, the “man” will deliver the prize amount and Ibn Jahun to his daughter in Los Angeles.

Each game in the new season is characterized by more violence, bloody and pushing the players to extremist moral decisions, which indicates that violence was not only physical, but it is an emotional to the point that leads the entire situation to emotional destruction stemming from the narration. “Games Ja”, a mother and a player, kills her son in a tragic moment, to end her life after minutes.

G Hoon, who has now radically changed, ultimately sacrifices himself to ensure that John Hee’s child was born during the games, and who won the great sacrifice of Ji Hoon.

Despite the severe shock with that huge amount of physical and emotional violence, a stream of questions and a state of meditation makes them work on the meaning of continuing life while the regime insists on stripping the individual of his humanity at every turn. The work also reveals the psychological “man of the introduction” or “if it”, whose tragic background story shows how even the winners of the game can become prisoners of the regime, as the man who dominates the game offers an unexpected behavior in the end when he honors the sacrifice of “J Hun” and delivered the financial prize to his daughter. The surprise of the end comes with the emergence of the new American female soldier to indicate that the game will become universal in the next part, indicating that capitalist brutality does not exclude any spot on the planet.

Red surreal paintings

If the first season was shocked by viewers with its bold mix between nostalgia and brutal violence, and the second season deepens this tension with closed places, then the third season turns the screen into a nightmare of control, monitoring and moral controversy, embodied in colors, light, shadows, and space.

Unlike the previous two seasons, which exclusively, most of the horror in designer arenas and bounds subject to control, the third season expands the optical world, as games are held through large and dysfunctional and diverse areas similar to the arenas of wars, while others resemble abandoned cabarets or ancient legendary temples. Film photography widely uses drones and rotating tracking shots to emphasize one feeling that no one is free, and the players are just small pieces inside a huge machine designed to crush their lives for entertainment.

Lighting plays a decisive role in visual contrast, as well as green tones and tension, and saturated red and ice blue shades indicate danger and separation.

Perhaps the most prominent decoration touches appeared through the events of the “Silence Tower” game that took place in the maze of a spiral vertical death, designed in the form of a prison that allows everyone to be monitored, and the more the player ascends to the top, the more he was killed, which creates a visual metaphor for the ambition that leads to destruction.

Great opportunities for performance

The six episodes came with feelings, so it was natural that the performance in many scenes appeared in a theatrical distinction, but that does not negate the wealth and that ingenuity that distinguished a full season in which the main construction is based on revealing each character, and thus giving the actor his full opportunity to shine.

Actor Lee Gong Jai, again, is the lead in the role of Song Ji Hoon. But this is not the same man that we met in the first season, as he does not fight for money, but rather in search of meaning and adherence to good thought in the human nature. His face has the length of work with a mixture of sadness and anger, ending with his last scenes when he jumped from the tower, sacrificing himself for the sake of the future, to depict the director as if an angel fly, not a person falling dead.

New stars also shine in the acting team. Kim C Yun, who embodies the role of Mother Guard JA, performs a rich performance as a woman who is taking place to make impossible decisions. The director changed the rules of the performance game in this season, as it replaced the performance with honesty, so the actors accompanied this transformation, and every tear, cry and silence emanating from the heart appeared.
