It has currently been one week since the release of the new streaming service show “Squid Game.” The South Korean Battle Royale style drama series, created by Hwang Dong-hyuk, has rapidly become a fan favorite. Its attention-catching concept and ability to keep the viewer visually engaged have resulted in its popularity.
Squid Game has gained noticeable praise and attention on a mass scale, holding a consistent spot on Netflix U.S top ten list since its debut date and has an impressive score of 100% on Rotten Tomatoes with an 87% viewership score.
The nine-episode series revolves around the central theme of classic children’s playground games; only the games come with an unexpected and deadly twist: players must survive death in order to win each round. These games are full of high stake scenarios that would be life-changing for any who manage to come out victorious in the end. Popularity is not solely a reason to watch this show — if that is not already a motivator on its own. For anyone looking to watch a high-intensity and attention gripping series, Squid Game should absolutely be on their list.
