Let’s say they remade the entire series but with the cast consisting of Westerners and they’re speaking English (the original one takes place in South Korea with a Korean cast with subtitles), but the thing is that the actual “Squid Game” is a Korean children’s game which is not something that resonates with US culture, so would an actual American remake really succeed or fail?
they would turn it into a a sort of play on the mrbeast bullshit. that’s all they would have to substitute. instead of being a Korean children’s game it’d be like youtube challenge bullshit. I.E. who can keep their hand on this stack of money the longest and when someone lets go they get shot.
