“I’ll be your best friend, but I won’t hesitate to betray you!”

The terrifying Korean series from Netflix takes a sordid turn since it will become a reality TV, with 456 participants who will compete to win the sum of 4.56 million dollars… On the menu: classic games of Squid Game to clean up among the candidates, even the famous “One, two, three, sun”, where those who move will be shot… by bullets paint ball. We have the right to find this in bad taste.

The first images from the official trailer (below) show that there will be friendships and betrayals in the game. Like in any reality TV ultimately.

Of course, there will be no death (a priori) at the end of the countdown. Despite everything, if the idea behind Squid Game was to denounce the perversity of the entertainment society or the manipulation of the less fortunate, the mere existence of this show in real life arouses perplexity…
