For those of you who are curious, here are interesting facts and theories about the Korean Drama Squid Game that you can listen to.

1. The Mysterious Color of Ddakji Cards

Gi Hun's involvement in the Squid Game begins when he is approached by a mysterious man, played by Gong Yoo. At that time, Gi Hun was offered to play ddakji and asked to choose one of the red and blue cards. Gi Hun also chose blue.

Theories emerge and say that the color in the selection of this card has something to do with the role of a person in the Squid Game. This is a unique way from the makers of Squid Game to recruit participants.

If someone chooses red, then he will be chosen to be a game officer. However, if he chooses blue, he will be selected as a participant in the game.

This theory is quite interesting, considering that the uniforms worn by the participants and officers of the Squid Game match the color of the ddakji card. Where, the officers wear pink uniforms, while the participants wear blue semi-green uniforms.

2. Clue Game Behind the Wall

Squid Game consists of five main games. To be the winner, participants must pass all the games safely.

As is known, the clue to the Squid Game game was never known by the previous participants. This is done to create justice for each participant. Thus, they have the same chance to win a prize of 4.56 billion won.

But who would have thought, it turned out that the clue was hidden behind the wall of their bed. This can be seen in the 8th episode which shows an empty room with the remaining three participants' beds. In the trailer, you can see some of the games they have played.

3. Red Haired Gi Hun's Transformation

In the last episode of the drama Squid Game, viewers can see the drastic transformation of Gi Hun who decides to change his hair color to red. Then a theory emerged which said that Gi Hun's red hair was related to the ddakji which symbolized the uniforms of the officers.

The audience then speculated that Gi Hun's fate would end the same as Front Man. Considering Front Man, played by Lee Byung Hun, is also the winner of the 2015 Squid Game.

Viewers believe that Gi Hun will return to the Squid Game as a high ranking officer. They speculate that Gi Hun will come back to find out the truth of the dirty game.

4. Phone Number Facts on Card Squid Game

The Korean drama production team Squid Game is reportedly threatened with a fine for violating the law. This started with complaints from netizens who were victims of illegal exposure of telephone numbers in one of the episodes.

He often gets calls and text messages from people he doesn't know. It was later discovered that his phone number was shown in the drama Squid Game, precisely written on the business card. He said that the number was the same as his phone number which had been used for more than 10 years.

The number was shown twice in the first episode when Gong Yoo gave his business card to Seong Gi Hun. Then, that number also appears in the second episode where Seong Gi Hun will rejoin the game.
