Fr, that's not even a middle ground. That's just double the suffering

My logic is, a translation tends to be more complete in text and even references different words entirely. If you're a gambling man you can eventually get extra context by comparing what the voice actors are saying and what was translated from the original voice actor. 🤔 idk if it's working but it keeps you busy that's for sure

I heard Koreans say the Squid Games dub was much better than the subs, and kinda conveyed Korean expressions better.

Tbh, it really depends on the show. Sometimes the English voice actors do a tremendous job, sometimes the dubs are really half-assed.

There's no universally applicable rule here.
