Singaporean TikTokers Put A Local Spin On Netflix K-Drama Squid Game
TikTokers are putting a local spin on the K-drama series – imagining how it'd be like if it took place in Singapore
Right now, there certainly ain't no game like Squid Game as local TikTokers are putting a spin on the K-drama series – imagining how it'd be like if these fictional games took place in Singapore, instead of South Korea.
Although the show's director, Hwang Dong-hyuk has said that he's not considering a sequel anytime soon, that hasn't stopped TikTokers from continuing the hype.
With the TikTok video garnering 63,300 views and over 7,000 likes, it looks like many people agree with the casting.
Unfortunately, TikToker joshuaalexius doesn't seem to have high hopes about making it to the end.
For those who might struggle with the Korean phrases used in Red Light Green Light, maybe this Chinese translation by local actor Mike Kwah might help.
Involved replacing the shapes used in the honeycomb game with well-known Singaporean icons — such as the Merlion, the durian, the Shopee logo, and even an extra-difficult outline of our sunny island.
You never know, these skills might come in handy someday.
