The games are also much simpler than those of other death-arena tales. Even after they find out what horrors await, they are all in a desperate enough situation (through debt, mostly) that they want to come back.
If they survive long enough to win, they're awarded an obscene amount of money, but what sets this show apart from the rest is that each one of these participants actually volunteers to play of their own free will. In a similar vein to The Hunger Games and Japanese stories like Battle Royale, As the Gods Will and Alice In Borderland, Squid Game forces strangers to fight to the death in a twisted and deadly competition. But if you haven't done so already, you might want to start with Squid Game, a new thriller that may turn out to be Netflix's most popular Korean export yet.
From Love Alarm and Itaewon Class to Kingdom and Crash Landing On You, there's a whole world of Korean content on there that demands to be explored. Anyone complaining that there's nothing good to watch on Netflix clearly hasn't been paying attention to all of the amazing Korean content that's available to subscribers worldwide.
