On Sept.17, 2021, Netflix released the first season of its brand new Korean drama, Squid Game, consisting of 9 episodes. We know that the streaming platform allocated a large amount of its 2021 fund to Korean dramas, so the news was not shocking. Considering the fact that the Korean dramas were doing so well on Netflix, seeing Squid Game’s immediate success was not surprising either. The Squid Game cast, however, deserves a shout-out at this point, as they are perfect in delivering their parts.

Based on a game in which more than 400 people race and only one can win, the show raises the stakes of the games we know to the highest level. All the participants of the show are in high debt and once they fail in the game, they die. Considering the fact that winning the game is a must for each one of them since they need the prize to pay off their debt adds even more to the drama.

In this article, we will take a look at the lives of the Squid Game cast. If you are a Korean drama fan, don’t miss out on this article!
