Need I say more? This week, Grace (@purplepolaroids) and I are talking about the BIGGEST Netflix Kdrama to date: Squid Game! Follow us as we try to navigate around spoilers and stuff that everyone's already talking about. We're sorry for the spoilers in advance D:
Squid Game might be the phenomenal, record-breaking Netflix Original, but some claim that the drama isn't that original? Squid Game copied key elements and styles from predecessors such as Battle Royale (2000), As The Gods Will (2014), Money Heist (2017-), and Alice in Borderland (2020-). Why, then, is Squid Game such a big hit??
