Squid Game

This striking drama has a simple premise: the winner of six children's games walks away with a tantalising prize of 45.6 billion KRW (about £28 million). All contestants wear identical green tracksuits, differentiated only by their identification number tags. The anonymous guards wear hot pink hooded boilersuits and black masks bearing a square, triangle or circle according to their rank. Squid Game explores the idea of 'Hell Joseon', a popular Korean term comparing the social inequalities, injustice and corruption of contemporary Korea to those of the Joseon dynasty (1392-1910).

DES. holding her gameball and KRUKKER holding the first ever "Jenkie" award. The Jenkie is awarded for unparalleled focus on the field, as only one under the influence of jenkem could properly offer.

MOTORBOAT received the gameball even though it was not her usual day to play, and COOLHAND scored the Jenkie.

Secrets secrets are no fun. COOLHAND's face is, though.
