The VIPs-uber-wealthy Westerners for the most part-are painful in every way. Then the VIPs show up in Episode 7 and things take a major turn for the worse. The games were harrowing, the drama and humor were on-point and you really started to see Seong Gi-HunвЂ™s transformation. I had very few complaints for the first six episodes of Squid Game. ItвЂ™s a show you canвЂ™t really look away from-its violence so engrossing and terrible, its characters so clearly desperate in both the real world where they struggle with money problems and in the games where they fight for their lives.Д«ut the show is not without its flaws. Squid Game is not one of those shows that you necessarily enjoy, though it can be quite funny at times.

There are six games and each is increasingly horrible, though I think the pancake game-in which contestants had to carve out one of four different shapes from a hard pancake without breaking any of the edges-was the most tense. Elimination from the games costs you your life. But the price 455 contestants end up paying is higher than anyone imagined. With 45 billion won up for grabs, itвЂ™s a chance at a new beginning. He, like most everyone else in the games, joins without realizing the stakes. He is deeply in debt to ruthless loan sharks and the little bit of winnings he just won at the race track were stolen by a pickpocket-Sae-Byeok-who he later meets at the games. HeвЂ™s a chronic gambler who steals from his elderly mother.
