What is Squid Game? Thanks for asking!

Since its release in September 2021, Squid Game has become the most popular Netflix show of all time. The South Korean production tells the dystopian tale of 456 people mired in debt, who face off against one another in survival games. The show has become the most-watched series in 90 countries.
