Squid Game: The Challenge

Photo: COURTESY OF NETFLIX

Here I sit before you, convinced that not only does Squid Game: The Challenge qualify as damn good reality television, it even serves as an unexpectedly effective adaptation of the original K-drama. The game show uses the language of modern reality television to realize, in its own strange way, the themes in Dong-hyuk’s parable of capitalism grinding human beings into dust. That reality television itself is an artifact of late-stage capitalism only underscores the point. — Nicholas Quah, “Oh No, Is Squid Game: The Challenge … Good?”
