Abstract

Squid Game is a thriller and suspense television series produced by Netflix that premiered on September 17, 2021. Netflix was founded in 1997 as a subscription streaming platform. With an intense plot and outstanding performances, the Squid Game has been widely praised by audiences around the world. The audience cannot pay attention to the role itself but pay too much attention to the development of the plot, resulting in the audience only leaving a one-sided impression, rather than a deep connotation. In addition, the characters can let the audience find their characteristics and shadows, better interact with the characters, in-depth story. Cho Sang-woo, the character in the drama, is controversial among many viewers. Through research, Cho Sang-woo’s character image is an egoist, who takes egoism as the core of all activities. The mercenary social environment is a social enterprise of refined self-interest. In the face of such egoists, we should abide by the spirit of the contract. Only by paying less attention to interests, understanding mutual benefit, and respecting and caring for each other’s interests can we maintain a long-term relationship.
