Minh Tiep declares war on Squid Game 2 for "slip of the tongue" about Vietnam, netizens agree?

Actor Minh Tiep, a familiar name in the film industry, has spoken out to advise young people not to watch Squid Game 2 because of the sensitivity of the character's dialogue in the film, which is said to touch on Vietnamese history.

Minh Tiep, who is famous as a model, MC and also an actor appearing in famous Vietnamese TV dramas and movies, expressed his anger about the dialogue of the character wearing shirt number 388 (played by Kang Ha Neul).

In a pivotal scene, the character talks about his father's participation in the Vietnam War, to which another character responds with, "Your dad seems great." This is a detail that audiences consider offensive and historically inaccurate, especially for Vietnamese people who suffered greatly during the war.

Shortly after, Minh Tiep posted a status on social media calling on the community to "boycott" the film, emphasizing that the use of such dialogue is unacceptable. He also called on parents not to let their children watch the film, as it could cause serious misunderstandings about the country's history.

Minh Tiep’s statement quickly attracted public attention, especially in the context of Squid Game, which has become a global television phenomenon. The actor was not simply expressing his personal opinion, but also representing viewers who felt that the film had crossed the line when it came to sensitive issues in Vietnamese history.

Not only stopping at the reactions from the online community, the Vietnam Cinema Department has also quickly stepped in to check this detail. According to information from Mr. Do Quoc Viet, Deputy Director of the Cinema Department, this agency has grasped information about the incident and is carefully checking the controversial dialogue in Squid Game 2. He said that the Department will conduct a thorough assessment and will provide official information to the press in the near future.

According to the Vietnamese Cinema Law, the inspection of films released on online platforms is also part of the post-inspection work. The inspection results are expected to be announced soon and may affect the release of Squid Game 2 in the Vietnamese market.

With an engaging storyline, Squid Game 2 also received great expectations from global audiences. However, besides praise for its content and dramatic elements, the second part of the film has not lacked mixed opinions, especially about the film's pace.

However, the most notable thing is the appearance of a controversial detail related to Vietnamese history. In one scene, character number 388 (Kang Ha Neul) talks about his father participating in the Vietnam War, and another character responds: "Your father seems great." This line of dialogue offended many Vietnamese viewers, who believed that the film was "distorting" history and downplaying the seriousness of the war.

Immediately after the second part of Squid Game was broadcast, there were many mixed opinions from the online community. A part of the audience expressed disappointment and anger with this sensitive detail, thinking that the film did not respect Vietnam's history. They called for a boycott of the film and strongly opposed the way the film portrayed this issue.

However, there are also viewers who think that this is just a small detail in the film and should not be exaggerated. They think that the purpose of the film is to create entertainment and not the place to delve into complex historical issues. However, the majority still agree that the use of such dialogue is inappropriate and needs to be adjusted.
