‘Squid Game’ Creator Says Show’s Evil VIPs ‘Resemble Elon Musk’

Netflix’s hit series “Squid Game” has captivated audiences around the world with its intense storyline and complex characters. In a recent interview with Time magazine, series creator Hwang Dong-hyuk discussed the real-life inspirations behind the show’s villains, known as the VIPs.

Hwang revealed that he couldn’t help but draw parallels between the VIPs in “Squid Game” and Tesla founder Elon Musk. He pointed out that Musk’s ubiquitous presence in the media and his larger-than-life personality made him a fitting comparison for the exuberantly rich and sinister VIPs in the show.

In the upcoming Season 3 of “Squid Game,” viewers can expect to see the VIPs taking a more active role in the deadly games. Instead of simply observing from the sidelines, they will join the competition and engage in the violence themselves. This decision was influenced by Hwang’s observations of the current political climate in the United States.

According to Hwang, the shift towards the VIPs actively participating in the games was inspired by the changing dynamics of power and control in society. He noted that in the past, those in positions of power would operate behind the scenes, hidden from public view. However, in today’s world, particularly in America, the wealthy elite and tech moguls are more vocal and visible about their influence and control.

Hwang highlighted the concept of oligarchy and how the so-called “big tech owners” are no longer hiding their power. Instead, they are openly declaring their dominance and control over the system. This theme of unmasking the true power players behind the scenes will be a central focus in Season 3 of “Squid Game.”

As fans eagerly await the release of the new season, they can expect to see the VIPs, including characters reminiscent of Elon Musk, stepping into the spotlight and revealing their true colors. The series continues to push boundaries and explore complex themes of power, control, and the dark side of human nature.

Stay tuned for more updates on “Squid Game” Season 3 as the creators delve deeper into the chilling world of the VIPs and their deadly games.
