Squid Game might be a sensation all over the world, but having a copy in North Korea can apparently get you into a lot of trouble.
The recent South Korean series was created by Hwang Dong-hyuk, and quickly became Netflix’s most-watched show in history.
According to Radio Free Asia the supposed smuggler “brought a copy of Squid Game into North Korea back from China and sold USB flash drives containing the series” to a group of students.
Given that the convicted smuggler in the case will reportedly be sentenced to death by firing squad, we can sort of see why.
