For a twisted competition held for the entertainment of the insanely wealthy, “Squid Game” has such an innocent name – being based off a common South Korean schoolyard game in the 1970’s and 80’s.
The record-breaking Netflix series is a chilling look at the darker side of society, and how such a nightmarish organization might hide – and even thrive – off of its cruel and illegal activities. The founder of Squid Game himself justified his actions by claiming that people were no longer capable of helping each other, and so nobody should pretend they care about the lives of strangers.
The show is gory, brutal and completely merciless in depicting the consequences of your desires and actions, and makes a compelling case for why many good-hearted people – when desperate enough – can resort to lying, manipulating, sabotaging, and killing others to stay alive.
Competing to have the most overly-used Halloween costume this year are the Squid Game’s own Pink Soldiers. These enigmatic gunmen wear a distinctly pink-red jumpsuit and hide their identities behind a dark mask.
Sharp-eyed viewers can notice that their masks have varying symbols – these actually denote a guard’s rank in the organization.
The lowest-ranking goons use the Circle symbol. They’re assigned to menial tasks, such as cooking meals and dalgona, rearranging the beds, and carrying corpses into coffins for incineration.
Guards with Triangle-printed masks are soldiers; they’re the ones usually holding firearms to deter rule-breakers and eliminate people who fail a game.
Masks with the Square symbol belong to the supervisors – they provide instructions, arbitrate on rules and clauses, and oversee the rest of the Pink Soldiers.
