📖 Synopsis
Seong Gi-hun, a debt-ridden and absent father, receives an invitation to participate in a series of children's games with a prize of 45.6 billion won. Alongside 455 other contestants burdened with insurmountable debts, he discovers that losing means more than just elimination. Hwang Dong-hyuk's South Korean series became the most-watched show in Netflix history during its first four weeks, with its social critique of South Korea's debt system resonating globally.
✍️ Our review
8.5/10
★★★★☆
Squid Game works because its social commentary on debt and inequality is disguised as a flawless survival thriller. The aesthetic is inimitable. The second season expands the universe with greater political risk.
