“Squid Game” now feels like a copycat
Due to my developing crushes on both Yuki Yamada and Ryo Yoshizawa, I have been watching their previous works, including “Tomodachi Games” (2017) [original manga first published in 2013], and then we also have another J-drama “Alice In Borderland” (2020) [original manga first published in 2010].
With the similarities and similar premise, “Squid Game” doesn’t feel that original.
