Squid Game: Lee Jung-jae, ‘Player 456’ Reveals Which Season Was Most Difficult To Film Posted: 22 Oct 2021 10:00 PM PDT Squid Game star Lee Jung-jae, who played the role of Gi-hun (Player 456), reveals which of the show's deadly games were most difficult to film.Squid Game features a talented ensemble that includes Park Hae-soo, Wi Ha-joon, Jung Ho-yeon, O Yeong-su, Heo Sung-tae, Anupam Tripathi, and Kim Joo-ryoung. Another has to do with the writing, which serves partially as a commentary on class divisions and unfettered capitalism. But a big part of the appeal has to do with the concept itself, as it's predicated on the kind of kids play that would be familiar to most viewers.In a wide-ranging interview with EW in which he discusses Squid Game's popularity and the potential for season 2, Lee also reveals which of the series' games were most difficult to film. The actor singles out two competitions, in particular, first mentioning the Honeycomb game. He explained: "I had to express with very minimal movement." Still, he noted it was that final confrontation between Gi-hun and Sang-woo (Park) that was the most challenging. Lee's quote is below. "Because Gi-hun is very hurt because of all these games. And he knows he has to admit the fact that he deceived others in order to survive himself, so he's very disappointed in himself and in Sang-woo [Park Hae-soo], his close friend, because he betrayed him. "These two characters are fighting against each other with their life on the line when they're childhood friends, so the scene itself is very heartbreaking. It was very emotionally tough. "Secondly, I remember that when we were filming that scene when the two were fighting, it was in winter, so the weather was very cold. In Korea the winter is very freezing cold. I remember filming that scene for about four days in the rain with the sprinkler, so it was very emotionally and physically tough." |
