Squid Game: The Challenge | Announcement | Netflix 

Tell me you didnt understand the theme of Squid Game without telling me you didnt understand the theme of Squid Game

The real question is, what's gonna happen the ones that lose? The whole greatness of squid game was that every game has the death risk. It wouldn't be that intense without it.

I literally cannot express just how ironic Netflix being a huge corporate entity & making the general public play Squid Game for everyone's entertainment is

Everyone gangster until this becomes a real life version of the show.

You're telling me the day after the economy is officially in a recession, inflation is at a 40 year high and gas is over $5 a gallon, you want to announce casting for a real life Squid Game? Great timing, actually. These are peak dystopian times we're living in.

Truly a masterpiece. The entire point of the show being done unironically missing the entire point of the show

I think it would be interesting if the reality show is somewhat related to season 2 or at least gives us hints. Like the game has really been going on in more than just one country, not just South Korea. I checked the website and saw they're casting people from the US and UK. They’re casting globally too. It would be a nice way to get fans involved and make them feel part of the story

Season 2nd waiting ❤️❤️

I got so excited thinking this was a season 2 promo

Tip for those who are signing up: Become friends with whoever is No.1 Have a nice game 😊

I can’t believe they actually went through with this lol.

"Contestants claim conditions on Squid Game: The Challenge were inhumane, and the game was rigged in favor of competitors who included Instagram and TikTok influencers."

I really wanna play!!! I’m registering for sure 😊

Isn't the whole point of this series that making a game out of people's financial desperation is bad? Don't tell me Netflix execs thought the perverse billionaires at the end of the show were the good guys?

If we go off of what Hwang has said he envisions for the series, the next installment of the series could actually be a prequel and highlight the backstory of the Frontman. In particular, the story would focus on his history as a police officer.

It's so difficult to control the Excitement for this Show.. Please Netflix Upload the trailer soon.

The moral of Squid Game is that actually doing the squid games would be super fun and cool and should be a major game for everyone.

So...we can all agree that the theme of Squid Game went over Netflix's heads

Netflix is just copying Mr.Beast . LOL

MrBeast: **remakes squid game with a $456,000 prize.** Netflix: I'll do you one better.

Second season is going to be crazy.

It is ironic that the creator of this series wanted to show what people are ready for for the sake of money, and as a result, real people began to call the phone number that was in the series to participate in the game.

This is actually insane 😭 I can't imagine how this will turn out

This is genuinely shameful, and you also have all these allegations of the game being rigged and participants injured. So shameful, poor Hwang Dong

Plot twist: It goes from Reality show to actually being season 2 and everyones thinking its fake but its real 💀

Pov: You registered for this reality challenge but you got killed in the game cuz that was the part of the game!😳🔥also part of the season 2

I thought they were about to announce the season 2 of this fantabulous show

Amber heard be begging for the challenge

This show will always have a place in my heart, even though the first episode gave me the biggest chock cause I really didn´t know anything could be so brutal. The actors are so good that I haven´t once thought of them as actors.

Cant wait for season 2

This feels like Netflix painfully missing the point of the show lol

One Of The Most Thrilling Series 😍♥️🔥

Making a typical reality show competition out of a story about how the gamification of misery under capitalism is inhumane has to be one of the stupidest things I've ever heard of.

Challengers: They're fake guns right? Guards: Challengers: They're fake...right?

Are they turning this series into a reality show ?? 🤣

*me wanting to play* Netflix: You have to be 21 or older .. I get it but MMMMM-

Imagine all the celebrities from all over the world joins the Squid game. Now that would be epic.

Bro Netflix just stealing mr beast videos now ☠️

Waiting for season 2 . It will another record breaker for sure 🔥🔥

my name is Lance and I was on a show called canadas worst driver and I was named the worst out of 8 episodes, I went on to do a reality show locally attempting records and losing those too. its become a gimmick. I would love to redeem myself on this show. how do I apply?

I applied in the US region. But, if I notice the cast are some RU-vid vloggers, TikTok makers, and Instagram models, this whole sign up thing was a sham to begin with.

Dang it, I'm 18 and really think i'm about to miss the opportunity of a lifetime. Hopefully this comes when I'm in college

Easily one of the most interesting shows on Netflix 💫

Mr. Beast: I’m giving away 456,000 in a recreation of Squid Game! Netflix: Hold My Beer 🍺

"Is this an out-of-season April's Fool joke?"

I am confused?! Is this the season 2 title name or a game show that’s being made?!?

Netflix be like “If MrBeast can do this, so can we” 😆

I signed up for this faster than you can say "Red light"

This was such a surprise for me. Thought I'd watch a few episodes and move on to something else. It was a bit silly for the first few eps and I almost gave up. Then nope, got hooked and I loved it! Wishing the best for this next one to be another success.

This South Korean drama was watched by 142 million people in 28 days

Also if squid game can be turned into a reality show I am pretty sure the actual Thanos lurking somewhere in the universe might just get the idea that him making an entry and doing his thing might be ok too 😂

Can you let MrBeast make a guest appearance in the last episode so he can learn how to play the final game, Squid Game. lol

This still give me chills on my back I hope amber wins so he could pay back Johny fast 😬

Squid Game creator Hwang Dong-hyuk: The show is a allegory on the evils of capitalism and how desperate people will dehumanize themselves for money. Netflix: Can we make it real?

I can relate! After watching squid game, I thought Koreans were made up, but then I saw one in real life and I couldn't believe my eyes 😯. I walked up to it and asked it to be my Gganbu. It seemed confused, and I explained that it was Korean, like from squid game, to which it replied "Dude, I'm Filipino". After he introduced himself as "Phillip Inyo", I told him my Korean name was Saegin ​​Geum, so he'd feel more comfortable with me. He gave me a weird look, and told me to leave him alone. This confused me, but I then realized that I had to show him how well endowed I was with Korean culture (after watching squid game in sub 😌 instead of dub 🤢, I feel that I have a strong grasp of Korean culture 🇯🇵)! As he walked away, I ran up and blocked his path, and announced that I challenged him to a round of squid game! I noticed that he looked rather confused, or even scared, so I whipped out my Samsung phone (also korean btw) and played the squid game theme as I ran up to him and attempted to tackle him. He yelled at me to "get off him" and called me a "racist prick", which I didn't remember from squid game (I watched it in sub 😌 instead of dub 🤢 because I am cultured, so I would have remembered seeing it). Afterwards, I was approached by another Korean in a police uniform! He then claimed I was "under arrest" for "assault". It was at that point that I realized he must be a guard, just like from squid game! I asked him why he was out of his squid game uniform, to which he replied "I'm Japanese, you moron" (idk why all these Koreans are introducing themselves, but they're very polite! 😊). After Jappa Knees put me in his police cruiser, a stunning realization hit me... I was being taken to participate in the squid games 🤩! Throughout the ride, I asked him how many other participants were going to be in the game this round, but he would either ignore me or tell me to "shut up". I also said that I wasn't in debt or anything, so I didn't really have a need for the prize money, but he continued to not respond (which I understood, he must have been a circle guard or something). After we got to a building that said "police station" (which isn't Korean, I know because I watched squid game in sub 😌 and not dub 🤢, so I can tell Korean words apart from English words), I had my photograph taken (just like in squid game!) and was put in a cell, with a few other contestants. While I waited for the first game to begin, I asked the other contestants how much debt they had accumulated. After hours of asking them and not getting a response, they all started to beat the absolute shit out of me. That's when I realized that the first game had begun! Before I could fight back though, one of the guards came in and broke up the fight. I noticed that no one had died yet, so I tried asking the guards what the prize pool was at, to which they told me to "shut up" (I watched the squid game show in sub 😌 instead of dub 🤢, so I could tell that "shut up" was not a Korean term, kinda sus). After spending a couple days in there, they said I was free to go, which made me sad because that means I had missed out on the prize money 😔. That just goes to show that I just wasn't prepared for the squid games. A few days later, I got a letter about a "court date". I was thrilled 😁! I called the number on the front and told them I would like to participate in the squid games again! I was also sure to mention that I watched the show in sub 😌 instead of dub 🤢, to which they then abruptly hung up on me (just like in squid game!). My "court date" is about 1 week away, and I'm so excited! This time, I'm gonna be sure that I'm ready to eliminate whoever is there for that big cash reward! Wish me luck 👍!

Plot twist..out 456 only 56 are paid artist and know about the game like that old man...while other 400 are real person who are still missing

This the only time where *you do need to read the terms of use* just in case 😂 have fun signing up!

These are the only Terms of Conditions you'll want to thoroughly read 😅

They mad because Mr.Beast did it first.

Here’s hoping the participants don’t die if they lose

Looking forward on casting Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, Carlos Slim & Zuckerberg as rich-ass billionaires in couches, watching the players at the Level 4 Hopscotch.

Im auditioning tomorrow 👀

My respect for thanos grows everyday

So that means everyone's gonna win the first 2 games easily

As long as the challenges are difficult like in the show and you get punished for losing, I will definitely check this out.

Turning it into a reality show just diminished every part of Squid Game... I didn't watch it but I knew of its premise and anyone on this series will not be killed for one so the tense factor is lost. This is just Who Wants To Be A Millionaire with extra steps.

omg thank you netflix so much i’m so excited for season 2🙏🏻❤️!!!

Mr. Beast really pissed them off this time

Man idk. Are we gonna die if we lose? Lmao 💀 🤣

I'd like to see a human chess game in season 2 that would be pretty cool

It’s the fact that the locals thought it was either a movie or just watched it cause it was getting hyped up💀 some didn’t even know it was Korean jeez… locals are scary

We are living in the peak of dystopia right now, this is perfect timing

Looking forward to it, i wonder how everyone will like the new characters Edit: ok my bad ppl in the comments cleared it up i thought this was a season 2 announcement sorry😭

Hope some of you guys make it on the show!

I have already signed up, let's go baby!

they stole is from Mr. Beast edit: I mean having the Squid Game in real life

Imagine Squid Game was real all along and this is how they get the players for the new season

I liked this series. someone should do one about surviving elementary school in the US without being shot.

this didn’t age well

Hire Mr. Beast as part of the staff

I just applied, hands down giga excited for this. I'm not a fan of reality shows, but damn Squid Game is just pure joy.

Cannot wait for season 2 to announce, I am very excited to watch with my family. Because we are biggest fans of Korean k dramas and movies as well. I hope everyone would enjoy it as well

I loved the first season and exited for the second one and the reality show. I also bought some Squid Game 2.0 token at launch, now sitting at 1Mil MC (ath 2.5Mil)

Can't wait to see Amber Turd competing to win the money to pay Johnny

If Lee Jung-jae is part of the prize then count my ass in 😂

If they’re doing a reality show, it has to be new games and not the ones we saw in the show since everyone knows what the games are and how to beat it. Also removing the fear of death and having nothing to lose does not really work in reality, it works as a fictional series much more better

Now y’all just milking the crap out of this series at this point show kinda lost hype as well

I swear, if this is real I'm running up that hill to compete in the challenges.

Я Зарегистрировался Ещё Вчера, Ну Правда Я Живу В России, Ну Ничего Самое Главное Это Принять Участие В Этой Игре.

*Who is excited for SEASON 2!!*

I'm so excited

As long as nobody is actually getting killed, I’m interested. Seriously, I don’t want to see someone get legitimately shot in the head on TV just because they moved on Red light.

Mr. Beast's squid game was fine. We want season 2

Ah yes cause the original games were definetly something people would want to play No but seriously this is really cool, even if you don't like reality tv it's awesome for those who are in need of money or who want to participate just for fun

This is gonna amazing as always Korean Dramas..... Can't wait

Nothing ruins a tongue-in-cheek satire about societal greed quite like turning it out to to a reality show. What a silly ouroboros.

Thank You Netflix... for giving this masterpiece

Get your shit together Netflix. We want season 2 of this and "the dark crystal" AND "live with yourself" AND "Black mirror."

Waiting for season 2🤩

Gotta love when an American company makes a reality show out of a fictional show whilst missing the entire point of the fictional show.
