Netflix’s 'One Piece' Season 2 is back with a Korean dub — and the waterworks are real. Hiriluk’s gut-punch line is going viral for making fans cry all over again.
On March 19, the 'Netflix Korea' YouTube channel posted the clip, drawing huge attention from longtime fans and first-time viewers alike.
The video captures the moment Hiriluk, trapped by a scheme, faces his death inside Drum Castle. In particular, the iconic line, "When do you think people die?" follows, heightening the dramatic impact.
Most viewers praise voice actor Kim Ik-tae for a powerhouse, emotionally charged performance. The nuanced direction — rarely heard in older dubbing series — is earning raves.
Interestingly, behind the scenes, Netflix reportedly brought Kim Ik-tae back to revive the original emotion. Thanks to this move, audiences say they were able to sink even deeper into the scene.
According to related reports, the new Korean dub was designed to rekindle the early-2000s sentiment, and the cast’s passionate performances are driving its surging popularity.
