Grand Prize Gone Missing: Real Squid Game Contest Winner Speaks Out

The popular Korean series Squid Game was very popular; the competition format in the series (the version without death at the end 😅) was adapted to a real competition programme. 4.56 million dollars was given as a prize! However, the winner of the competition said that she still has not received her prize.

Reality-Based Competition

Netflix's South Korean production 'Squid Game' made its mark in 2021 and was watched all over the world.

A reality-based competition format of the popular series was created and we watched real contestants compete in Squid Game: The Challenge...Of course, although not as reactionary as the contest in the series, the real contest was also very exciting.

The Finale

The finalists were Player 287/Mai, Player 451/Phill and Player 16/Sam. No detail was spared: In the final, the three finalists came together for a candlelit steak dinner on a giant triangular table with their special tuxedos!

Different in the real world...

After the food was eaten and the last games were played, the winner of the competition was announced: Mai is the winner of the $4.56 million gold credit card! In the competition in the series, the money was deposited into the account of player number 456, but things are quite different in real life...

''Give my money!''

Mai Whelan, who defeated 455 players, said that although the filming ended in February, she still has not received her prize of 4.56 million dollars!

Saying that she did not receive a single cent, Mai complained, 'Give me my money.'
