Netflix's cool drama " Squid Game ", which synchronizes with her, broke the curse of hegemony of British and American dramas, and won the top spot in more than 20 countries including Britain, the United States, Japan and South Korea, and became a benchmark for Asian drama counterattacks.
When this TV series that is popular with audiences around the world spread to the domestic Internet, it was like a match igniting a gasoline barrel, and rounds of discussion and debate came. People began to look for every foreshadowing in the details of the picture, study 100 ways to make sugar, or think about the various paths of glass bridges. A drama created several myths, the goddess Zheng Haoyan soared into the sky, and the share price of drama god Netflix rose by 120 billion. Even the sugar makers have become magical. Mr. An, a Korean candy vendor, provided 700 sugar props for "Squid Game". Now he can sell more than 500 sugar candy every day. He has enough work to have no time to eat and go to the bathroom and has not been home for a week.
01 Gambler's game Korean films and TV shows have always been brave enough to self-examination, good at using desire for human nature, and questioning everyone, especially the global hit drama "Squid Game". The protagonist Cheng Qixun is a gambler. In his quagmire life, only gambling is valuable. He stole the money from his elderly mother and went to bet on horses to win money. Even if his daughter celebrated her birthday, she had to hold gifts in the mall machine. After the game, it seemed that he became the last winner, but he continued to fall and lived like a homeless man.
Cheng Qixun’s self-abandoned life is too annoying, too terrifying, and too real. He is in line with the weaknesses of selfishness, selfishness, cowardice, incompetence, arrogance and other weaknesses in the spiritual world. Expanded to the show, most characters are part of the "League of Losers". Park Hae-soo is a small town worker from a low-level background. Even if you go to the Department of Economics and Management of Seoul University, you still cannot change your destiny. Jiang Xiao, a North Korean defector, was a desperate man who was cheated of all his money and was added to the police list. These people are actually the same type of people, and their choices are always gambling. When life falls to the point where a career declines, a wife and a child are separated, or even a murderer, they have no choice but to go back and need to participate in the squid game to fight for their lives for the future. Kindness and malice, withdrawal and staying, murder or suicide. Every choice of gamblers reveals people's truest desires, from former teammates to killing each other, there may be only a small marble. This highly inclined life and death game is more realistic.
In "Squid Game", the game itself is not complicated, and many of them are familiar childhood games. Starting from "123 Wood Man", to digging candy and hopscotch, the game with its own tone of innocence, combined with the setting of headshots when losing, the whole drama is absurd. Surreal colorful bright scenes can be seen everywhere. In the second game, the scene was arranged in a pink and yellow game field, but the body of the eliminated person slowly fell from the slide next to it. In the cute pig pig bank, there is 45.6 billion won. It is hung high, emitting a golden light, shining with a dizzying light. When a childhood game that represents innocence in life, after a layer of blood is dyed one day, the game will no longer be happy. Behind the brightness and beauty, there are devastations, and the desires of adults are also released. "Survival or destruction" is far from enough. It is necessary to tear the normal and disorder apart and mix it up to create a bizarre world. 02 "Sauce Candy" became popular offline and was filming on the set. What impressed Jung Ho-yeon the most was the scene of shooting the second game. Teacher Fengtang kept stirring Fengtang in the background, and the whole set was filled with the fragrance of Fengtang. The sweet taste of
floats out of the drama, until Paris, France, which means that "Squid Game" is popular offline in the world.On October 2, a "Squid Game Cafe" was opened in the 2nd District of Paris. The store continued the TV series style, from colorful decoration designs, to the red onesie with icons on the waiter, and to the settings of multiple same games including snatching candy, all of which have highly restored the plot. Since it was only open to the public for two days, fans who were queuing up to check in, and the per capita lined up for four or five hours to enter. There were also chaotic scenes such as jumping in line and pushing each other on the spot. Someone once fought. The same scene is the same when you walk into the Itaewon subway station in South Korea. In this offline interactive experience exhibition, the scenes of "one, two, three wooden people" and "sweet candy" are mainly built. The typical giant girl in the play looks back and the amusement facilities are perfectly restored. Offline fans can play childhood games here, then draw lottery, take photos, or buy peripheral props like "Squid Game".
Although the recent exhibition was closed early due to the epidemic, it did not affect the enthusiasm of fans. What is more intuitive is the profits brought to Netflix by "Squid Game". A drama raised the sales of marbles to 860%. The price of the sugar set on the website ebay has increased by 13 times compared with that of South Korea. The sales volume of Korean products including soju, ramen, soda and soda have also risen. This drama has even become a popular game platform. On the world's largest online game creation game platform Roblox, some users adapted the plot of the drama into a mini game that everyone can challenge, and has been on the recommendation list since its launch. Even if some people accuse "Squid Game" of not that myth, not only are the plot suspected of plagiarism, but many plots are not clichéd, and too much subsequent marketing is offensive, but this cannot be concealed, and there are many followers online and offline. After all, there is nothing in this world that can touch people more than emotions. Taking advantage of the popularity of the TV series and the audience is still excited about the show, offline interactive marketing is an extremely skilled decision. Netflix has created a unique emotional connection through interactive marketing, building a bridge of interconnection between the absurd film and television world and the boring real world. 03 A contemporary social fable "The Squid Game", with a very interesting name. This is a game popular among children in South Korea in the 1970s. The task of fighting against both sides is to let the other party leave the competition area. Even children's games are extremely competitive and can be regarded as a kind of social irony. Pulling away the duckweed on the water is the most secret part of "Squid Game".
Its core is, in a society where money is paramount, what should we choose if people live in extreme competition? Director Huang Donghe wants to describe a fable: "What I want to write is a fable, a story about the contemporary capitalist society. It tells about a competition in some extreme form, which is to compete for life. Korean society emphasizes this kind of competition, which makes everyone in it feel a lot of pressure." In "The Squid Game", put aside the rough distinction between superiors and inferiors, gamblers are typical products of capital manipulation, regardless of men or women. This is too scent of alienation theory. The protagonist should create more possibilities in the process of labor and work, but when he was laid off by a car factory, lost his career and family, and his life was getting worse and worse, he could only choose to gambling to achieve a chance of success with slim hope. As the subject, he was alienated into a gambler by money. In fact, the experience of the protagonist Cheng Qixun is really prototyped. In 2009, due to a large-scale 2,500 workers in the automobile company, a Shuanglong Automobile demonstration broke out in South Korea. The workers discovered that although the company was rich, they just refused to pay wages and announced a full strike, and even used temporary slingshots, molten bottles, etc. to attack the factory and the police. As a result, 70 workers were imprisoned. The protagonist who walked out of the mud went out and found that he had to face this extreme squid game. Everyone became tool people, and gamblers fought each other, and the organizers watched and had fun throughout the whole process. In the high-end VIP room, the presentation is more obvious. The young men and women are naked and painted with human body paintings. Some are dressed as animals and plants, and some act as "foot pads" for VIPs. What's even more bizarre is that the poor are willing to be used as tools.In the play, they return to reality and ask to restart the game in turn. Human nature is hell. Even if they understand the ending of the game, they only die or get 45.6 billion won by one person. No matter which choice, it is much better than letting others win awards and live a bad life. The underlying internal rollup even rolls out the unspoken rules. The Squid Game has been held for decades, and the new managers are often the winners of previous sessions. When the protagonist found out that he won, he was still under surveillance and chose to dye his head and red hair, which made people wonder whether he really wanted to join the management. All the scenes in the play are permeated. The director’s hatred of capital society and the formation of a closed loop in mutual harm is also an annotation of reality. If Netflix breaks out of the episode itself, it will be more magical. A world-renowned streaming company that has made a world-renowned streaming company that has made a drama that contains capital. Netflix's last similar operation was the movie " Parasite " that won the Academy Award. Perhaps there is no equality. The equality of the game in "Squid Game" is based on death and misfortune. The equality of creation outside the play is based on the creator's reliance on Netflix to give movies and TV series the opportunity to be filmed.
"Kingdom" and "Squid Game" have all faced the dilemma of bloody scripts and no one invested in them. This is again formed. Similar to the game in the drama, gamblers/creators hate capital, rely on capital, and rely on capital. Netflix doesn't care whether there is anyone. In the play, he accused capital of making people alienated into gamblers and repeatedly repeating the cruel game of life and death. After all, it’s just a swearing, and it’s good if someone pays it. The creator cannot give a definite answer to this, because director Huang Donghe himself is a surrender. In the business community, it is difficult to comment on the right and wrong. It is just that the creator's thoughts, reflected in the work, are the question of whether the competition between gamblers is reasonable, and in the play, it becomes visible to the naked eye.
