ahhh, profiteering off of often Low income people through gambling… Just what Squid Games was promoting…
It’s gone full circle, think that means we get some free spins
Press button and dopamine comes out
If you run out of money on the card it shoots you in the head
And the game being rigged to have the house win.
Ironic
Surprised there isn’t one already. I went to the casino recently and there’s all sorts of licensed slots based on tv shows and movies
A quick google shows some terrible House of Cards and Orange is the New Black machines. Surprisingly, nothing for Stranger Things.
Most places take targeting children with gambling very seriously so putting kids on a slot machine probably wouldn’t fly
I’ve never seen Stranger Things. I didn’t realize it was rated TV-14 or intended to be family friendly.
Fun fact) Slot machines in Korea is illegal. The only casino Koreans can use is government-run. Even doing it oversea and coming back is illegal.
Korea has casinos, but only non-Koreans can visit them, which usually leads to a lot of Chinese and Japanese tourists playing baccarat.
There aren’t any laws for Koreans gambling overseas though. You might be thinking of Koreans using drugs overseas while visiting places that legalized it. That is illegal and Koreans can get hit with a drug test on arrival to Korea after visiting Amsterdam, Thailand, or any other place where they might have partaken.

Nope. 속인주의 (nationality principle) is a thing here. Any criminal things you do outside the country is to be punished if you are Korean.
There are a lot of celebrities who fucked up their career because of that. The government is not that nonsensical though so you won’t get (realistically) punished over few hundred dollars but if you go over that, not only you will get punished for gambling, but you’ll also get punished for Foreign Exchange Transactions Act violation, since you are not likely to have brought that much of a money outside the country legally.
Tldr; It’s illegal. South Korean law will follow you wherever you go if you are Korean.
Irony is dead. Irony remains dead. And we have killed it. How shall we comfort ourselves, the murderers of all murderers?
Do I get shot when I loose?
Sega Sammy moment (yes that SEGA)
