“Squid Game: The Challenge” Actors Break Silence on Harsh Set Conditions

“Squid Game: The Challenge” contestants speak out on alleged “inhumane setup.”
$4.56 million prize spinoff premiered on November 22.
Other players refute claims, call it a tough competition.

Contestants from Netflix’s “Squid Game: The Challenge” have finally spoken out about the competition’s conditions after an anonymous player criticized the production for its “inhumane setup.”

The reality show, a spinoff of the Emmy-winning Korean drama “Squid Game,” premiered on November 22, featuring 456 participants competing in games for a staggering $4.56 million prize.

Earlier this summer, an unnamed competitor contacted Variety, expressing discontent with the filming conditions.

According to the source, the first challenge, Red Light, Green Light, which eliminated 228 contestants, was filmed under “inhumane” conditions on an extremely cold day, leading to his elimination.

“This is not a Bear Grylls survival show. If they had told us it was going to be that cold, no one would have gone through with it,” he had said.

Refuting the claims, other players told Entertainment Tonight that the competition was meant to be difficult. “I was very surprised that somebody ran to the media that fast because they’re just really upset that they got eliminated really quick,” said one of the players named Bryton.

Another player, who considered himself “the strongest player” but got eliminated, told the outlet, “You have to expect some difficulties. If not, it would have been advertised as having ice cream in Malibu instead of Squid Game: The Challenge, right?”

Rick, the show’s oldest competitor, also laughed off the accusations, and said, “It expected it to be difficult. You know, $4.56 million – it needs to be difficult.”
