The problem is that only the final survivor can get the prize money, while all of the others must die along the way.</span></p><p> </p><p><span style="color: #000000;">Behind the game, a sinister organization actively scouts and recruits people who are broke or in deep debt, and tempts them to go through six deadly games to win the advertised money. Adopting the motif of life and death survival contests, “Squid Game” evokes American movie “The Hunger Games” as well as the Japanese film “As the Gods Will” and anime “Kaiji: Ultimate Survivor.” The themes and motifs of “Squid Game” are thereby ready-made for universal appeal.</span></p><p> </p><p><span style="color: #000000;">Despite the resemblance to the above foreign films, however, “Squid Game” has its own idiosyncrasies. For one thing, the six survival games consist of children’s games popular in Korea, such as red light/green light, cutting a shape out of a honeycomb without breaking it, tug-of-war, marbles, crossing a glass bridge and, finally, the titular squid game.</span></p><p> </p><p><span style="color: #000000;">The children’s games are highly symbolic because they imply that life and death competition begins as early as our childhood. In fact, children’s games are good metaphors for adult life, full of inhumane competition, deception and factional disputes.</span></p><p> </p><p><span style="color: #000000;">중략..........</span></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p><span style="color: #000000;">------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</span></p><p>※ 돈이 되는 정보의 90%는 영어로 먼저 나온다고 합니다.</p><p>제 해설을 듣고 주요 문장을 암기하시면</p><p>좋은 정보를 더 빨리, 더 정확히 얻을 수 있는 독해 능력이 생깁니다.</p><p>또한, 주요 기사들을 골라서 반복해서 읽으시면</p><p>깔끔하게 논리를 전개할 수 있는 능력도 발달하게 됩니다.</p><p> </p><p> </p>
