ABOUT SQUID GAME:

Squid Game is a fan-beloved Korean drama that quickly became a cultural phenomenon and Netflix's most popular show ever. Created by Hwang Dong-hyuk, Squid Game's highly anticipated third and final season had a record-setting #1 debut in all countries ranked, making history as the first show to do so in its premiere week; amassed more than 106 million views through two weeks; and currently ranks at #3 on the Most Popular Non-English TV List. Season 2 launched in December 2024, smashing multiple records including most views for a show in its premiere week and entering the Most Popular Non-English TV list in just three days - it ranks #2 with 192.6 Million views just behind Season 1 at 265.2 Million. The show became a global sensation boosting interest in K-content; iconic moments went viral, Vans slip-on sneakers sales increased 8,000%; and Halloween costumes sold out around the world, shaping trends and solidifying its place in pop culture. Squid Game made Emmy(R) history with first-ever wins for a non-English language show and Season 2 was nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Television Series - Drama. In 2023, Netflix debuted the Emmy(R) nominated and BAFTA-winning reality competition Squid Game: The Challenge, which spent five weeks on the Global Top 10 (English) List. The franchise continues to expand with Squid Game: The Experience, a touring activation where fans can play games inspired by the show; fans can bring their favorite show home with a variety of lifestyle products and collaborations; and with Squid Game: Unleashed, a multiplayer video game that is on track to become Netflix's most downloaded game. Squid Game Seasons 1, 2 and 3 are now streaming on Netflix.
