Games

The creator of Squid Game doesn’t think Los Angeles Lakers star Lebron James should be criticizing artist pieces.

Squid Game creator Hwang Dong-Hyuk has had his profile raised to an almost unimaginable degree over the last month or so. A 50-year-old writer and director who spent years trying to get his hyper-violent satire of capitalism off the ground, Hwang is now the creator of one of the biggest shows on the planet.
