I'm not a big fan of foreign movies generally but Squid Games was actually solid. It's well dubbed in English. Other watchable foreign media off the top of my head is The Heist, a Spanish TV series that started out strong, gets pretty soap opera-ish later though. The Meg is a Chinese and American sci fi movie. Doesn't have the best rating ever but it's a high budget action movie about a giant shark, that gets my vote. And Russian media is actually producing, not exactly great movies, but stuff more in line with American production quality now. Better than Us was an okay watch on Netflix.

Can’t stand watching dubbed shows. I tried with the iron chef decades ago, it is awful for me.

I watched SG with subtitles. Mostly because I know from experience Korean overacting can get so extreme no English speaking actor can fit it without the whole thing looking ridiculous.
