"Squid Game": Live or die, decide with one game

I have always liked to watch survival games, and "Squid Game" has my favorite actor Lee Jung-jae, so as soon as the show started, I immediately watched it and finished the show within three days.

There are nine episodes in this play. Except for the first two episodes, which explain the background of each contestant, the remaining seven episodes are exciting and tense games, and there is no cold scene, which makes people watch it episode by episode.

What is the story about?

The story is very simple, that is, 456 people who are in financial difficulties are invited to participate in a game with huge bonuses. As long as they win 6 levels, they can get huge bonuses, up to 45.6 billion won. The problem is that those who lose the game will lose. life.

Who would want to play games with their own lives? The answer is people who are forced to a dead end.

People who owe a lot of debts owe a debt that will never be repaid in a lifetime. If they have no money to repay, they are forced to sign a letter of abandonment of the body. Debt is one thing, and they may also have urgent financial needs, such as paying for surgery for their family.

There is really no way to raise money, anyway, there is a dead end, and you can only fight with your own life.

So, they knew it was a game of death, but because this was the only hope, they could only fight for this slim hope.

What game to play?

This is definitely a death game, because every game kills a lot of people.

Every game is a game played in childhood, such as "123 Wooden Man/123 Traffic Light" that has appeared in the trailer. This is a game played by children, so the rules are very simple, but the loser will be killed. Like this game, as long as someone moves when the wooden man turns his head, he is immediately shot. This is the first game. Before playing, everyone didn't know that they would be killed, so it can be seen how crazy the player would be when they suddenly saw the person in front of them being shot. Want to go back? There is no retreat behind, and as long as you move, you will be shot and killed. If you don’t want to die, you can only rush to the end within a limited time, otherwise it will still be a dead end.

There are a total of 6 levels in the game, and I don't plan to spoil each level of the game, because if the audience is like the people who play the game, it will be more exciting not to know the content of the game in advance.

Often players have to make choices before they know what the game is about, such as choosing a different shape, or choosing a different teammate. When everyone has made a choice, they know what game to play, and the choice just made is definitely the key to victory or defeat. Choose the wrong one and you may die.

The nature of the 6 games is different, so each time will bring a different experience to the audience. The only fly in the ointment is that the final game is supposed to be a climax, but there is a feeling of being lightly passed, but it is the weakest of the 6 games.

Cass and themes

"Squid Game" has a super gorgeous cast.

In addition to the protagonist Lee Jung-jae, who is my favorite, there are also cameos from the big cast, such as Kong Liu who has already appeared in the first episode, and another actor who only appeared at the end.

Li Zhengzai's acting skills are really nothing to say. Even if he deliberately dresses up sloppy and decadent, he still looks good. Every episode can see his acting skills explode. Of course, as a movie fan, he is very satisfied.

In fact, dramas/movies/comics similar to this type of survival game are not uncommon. For example, many people will compare this with "Listen to the Word of God", "Apocalypse of Gambling", "The Kingdom of Now", etc. , but I prefer the rarely mentioned "Cheat Game", it is really pure wits, good-looking, and the "Darwin's Game" I watched recently is that players will be killed in the game, and the gameplay is on a larger scale. (Everyone said that I like to watch this kind of subject.)

Since there have been so many works of similar themes before, I never expected anything new in "Squid Game", it's all like this, but I still watched it happily, and the Japanese drama "Squid Game" that was also on Netflix earlier Compared with "The Land of the World", this one is too refreshing. I almost fell asleep in the last few episodes of "Today".

Is the show good?

It's good to watch, the first two episodes may be a little boring because of the background of the characters, but once you enter the game, you can hardly stop.

At the end of each episode, I really wanted to know the result, so I watched the next episode again, and the person quickly followed the whole drama.

Every time this type of survival game, there must be characters with different personalities, like a human nature hypermarket, there must be bullies, people who tend to be inflamed, people who are selfish, people who stick to their beliefs, people who follow the team, There are people who act alone... When a group of characters get together, they can naturally create different tensions, and there are powerful dramatic effects outside the game.

"Squid Game" has some twists and turns, and the ending is also emotional. Although the behind-the-scenes and game purpose have been revealed at the end, it seems to pave the way for the second season. Although I feel that even if there is no second season, it is already very complete, but I still hope that I can watch it again.

Of course, if you're not good at this kind of bloody survival game at all, it's definitely not your cup of tea. But if I like this kind of subject matter, I will definitely enjoy watching it.
