Westworld Season 2: 10 Biggest Twists, Theories & Questions From 'Journey Into Night'

7. And It's In Chinese Territory

Not only does the episode confirm that the park is an island, but it also gives some hints as to where exactly it is, with the prevalent theory that it's in Chinese territory.

The military official who confronts Strand, leading to the island reveal, speaks Chinese, which has been taken as a major hint of its location. That could simply be because in this timeline China has expanded its territory in the world, but then the Season 1 finale already gave us some clues about where it is.

Finnish subtitles, as spotted by Reddit, gave coordinates that mark a place in the South China Sea called, fittingly, Mischief Reef, which is a great Easter egg from the writers, but now also further confirmation that the park is located just off China, which would then make the country the "mainland" we've heard mentioned.
