denying that in the past two months Squid Game has really become a global

REAL LIFE SQUID GAME IN LA

Netflix [https://netflixjunkie.com/category/news/] upped the game by one more
step in the City of Angels when they brought the crazy games from the show to
life as a “Halloween Surprise”. An amazing setup was created to give people an
experience of a lifetime. People came and played games that were featured on the
show. The games included the recruiting game “Ddakji”, the tasty-but kinda
wicked “Honeycomb/Ppopgi” where people carve out shapes from a dalgona candy,
and of course the most famous “Red Light! Green Light!”.

The visitors even got to witness more than just the games, as they were even
given the signature blue jumpsuits that all the players wore during the course
of the show. There even were those masked soldiers from the show wearing the red
jumpsuits and controlling the games around the venue.


SQUID GAME AND HALLOWEEN

There never was a doubt that the Netflix show was going to cause a global
phenomenon. With Halloween right around the corner, it came sooner than later.
Pretty much like the signature Money Heist red jumpsuits a few years back and
the Joker cosplay, the jumpsuits from the Korean drama were destined to have
been a hit among people this Halloween.

Everyone saw it coming. Even the New York school district saw it, as they banned
any costume inspired by the show

It really tells you about how crazy and wicked this show was when talking about
its games and plot.

Netflix posted a video from this little re-creation of the show on their Twitter
handle. It was clear that fans had an amazing time enjoying the American and
Korean cultures coming together in the most beautiful way possible (a little
awkward too).
