Squid Game is undergoing unprecedented success

At this point, I don’t think Squid Game needs any introduction. It is one of the most unique shows that Netflix has produced. Its premise revolves around 456 participants playing a game. All of them are financially constrained with crippling debts. And that forced their hand to participate in this game with prize money of 46.5 billion Won. There’s only one catch – if you lose, you die. The show truly shows the lows that humans can fall down to just to survive in a system that exploits them to the fullest. And now, it looks like social media influencers like MrBeast are also cashing in on Squid Game.
