Squid Game (Day 559)

If you're in Sydney, would you go and take a photo with this creepy "Red light, Green light" doll? ;-) There's an even bigger doll (10-story tall) in front of Sogo, Causeway Bay in Hong Kong.

I wonder how many people will dress up in Squid Game uniforms and masks this Halloween in the US. Perhaps not so much for kids but more so for adults.

Who's your favorite character, and why?

I'd like to be the sole survivor and winner of the Squid Game, Seong Gi-hun. No way I'd ever go back to the game for a second time, though. But outside the game, he's such an addicted gambler and irresponsible father, and I can't understand his behavior after winning the game at all.

I also liked Oh Il-nam until I found out that he's the mastermind behind the game. It's hard to imagine with all his wealth, he'd rather subject himself to a diabolic game like this for the thrill before dying.

Cho Sang-woo is the smartest character but very bad at accepting the consequences of his own bad decisions. Abdul Ali is too naive, and Kang Sae-byeok is a victim of circumstances.

So my favorite character is Hwang Jun-ho. The police officer sneaked into the game to find out the truth about his brother's disappearance. He faces danger with calm, brave, and driven.
