Squid Game is a thriller suspense drama from Netflix (Neflix).

"The Squid Game" was directed by Hwang Dong Hyuk and starred Lee Jung Jae, Park Hae Soo, Wei Hwa Joon, and Jung Ho-Juan, and was released on September 17, 2021 on Netflix. The drama is about a group of people who are disillusioned in life who suddenly receive a mysterious invitation to participate in a survival game.

Behind the fa?ade of the game, it's essentially an infinite stream survival game - 456 marginalized people in Korean society, or more precisely, a group of marginalized people who have been swept away by fate due to personal reasons such as criminality, greed, decadence, gambling, etc., and who have been lured into a "Battle Royale" game by a mysterious organization with a huge prize at a time when they have no other choice. The "Battle Royale" is a mysterious organization that lures them into a secret room with a huge prize. Although the ultimate prize is 45.6 billion won, the price for winning the prize and getting out of the room is the lives of the remaining 455 people.

The game in the drama "Squid Game" is the same game that most viewers played in their childhood, and the game is realistic and immersive; at the same time, the characters in the drama are also realistic in their portrayal of the "desperate" contestants:

The main character, who is in his middle age but has accomplished nothing, the "school bully" who is highly expected by his mother, and the "student" who is a good student, are also very realistic.
