The South Korean hit drama returns for a second season in December.
The dystopian Korean drama Squid Game became a global sensation when it was released in 2021When I ask the creator of the hit Korean drama Squid Game about reports that he was so stressed while shooting the first series he lost six teeth, he quickly corrects me. “It was eight or nine,” he laughs.
In this series, the previous winner, Gi-hun, re-enters the game on a quest to bring it down and save the latest round of contestants. But it is clear from talking to Hwang, that the violence is fully thought out. He is a man who thinks and cares deeply about the world and is motivated by a mounting unease.
“I don't think this will make viewers warm to him, but it may help them better understand his choices.”Hwang says Netflix only paid him a modest upfront amount for the show, which is estimated to have made £650m They paid him a modest upfront amount, leaving him unable to cash in on the whopping £650m it is estimated to have made the platform.
The issue is compounded in South Korea, creators say, due to its outdated copyright law, which does not protect them.
