The Squid Game has taken Netflix by storm over the last few weeks. Fans are obsessed with the new Korean drama where to lose game means death. For those who are not familiar with this new must-watch Netflix series, the plot centres around a handful people who are massively in debt due to fraud, gambling, and many more, and get invited to join a game where the big prize is cash – approximately $40 million. Once in the game, the 465 players – among them Seong Gi-hun (Lee Jung Jae), Cho Sang Woo (Park Hae Soo) and Kang Sae Byeok (Ho Yeon Jung) – realise that it isn’t just a regular game but rather it is based on surviving children’s games such as “red light, green light,” and tug of war.
The show has become an instant favourite amongst the Men’s Folio team (many of us binged the show in less than 48 hours), and a big topic of conversation has been not just on the plot and acting, but also the outfits appeared throughout the show. From the bright fuschia pink guard outfit – which many have desired to wear them as this year’s Halloween costume – to the players’ deep bluish green track suits, here are some of the curated dupes inspired by the Netflix’s thriller series.
