‘Perghh, is anyone interested in becoming a‘ gganbu ’writer to join this new Netflix program?’
Netflix Inc. plans to hold a reality show based on its popular drama series released last year, Squid Game.
It is believed to be the company’s new marketing strategy to ‘lure’ customers back to Netflix’s streaming service which has seen a decline in its subscription value since the end.
Netflix sources confirmed that the reality show, Squid Game: The Challenge, has gotten the green light to run and will be offering a $ 4.56 million winning prize.
According to the source, the winning prize offer of $ 4.56 million is the largest value in the history of reality TV in the world.
Squid Game: The Challenge is said to follow a similar game concept as the drama series, which has a total of 1.65 billion hours of views over a 28 -day period, the only difference being that no life bets are pawned.
This is not the first time a game like Squid Game has been brought to the real world, where previously the famous YouTuber MrBeast once held a similar program called Red Light, Green Light.
For now, no further statement has been issued other than the news that the show will be filmed in the United Kingdom (UK).
In the meantime, it’s worth noting that last year’s Squid Game phenomenon has helped the surge in Netflix shares so much so that it has become one of the leading streaming services in the United States (US).
In addition, the company also announced the 2nd season of the drama series which is expected to restore Netflix's increasingly volatile performance.
