Working on 'Squid Game' was so fun and worth it.
Often we eat squid fried, so it's fun to grill it for a change. To grill squid, slice the cleaned bodies open into two flat pieces and thread them, along with the tentacles, onto skewers, then grill quickly over a direct fire with the coals as close as possible to the grate, turning the squid several times.
I try not to dwell too much on the success of 'Squid Game.'
Had I been a contestant in 'Squid Game,' I would have died doing the dalgona.
It's just so much fun when you're working with folks who are not just at the top of their game but reinventing the game. It's like a whole new machine.
Working with the actors, working with production designers, working with the creative people who surround the process is really fun, it's really inspiring and I take great pleasure in working with them. That's what's most fun about directing.
Squid experts have been debating for some time about whether the giant squid is a passive predator that just floats around in the water and waits to bump into something. I was never one to imagine it to be passive.
In my early work, my time in the batting cage, that's serious, and that's when I feel like I'm really working. That's where I have to lock in on my approach, make sure my mechanics are right, and make sure my mindset is right for the upcoming game. But then, when the game comes up, it's a game! You're supposed to have fun when you play games.
Oh, I’m nerdy about science fiction and fantasy and graphic novels and reading, and I’m nerdy about board games. My favorite board game is a board game I’m working on right now. It’s a game of Napoleonic era naval warfare, and it’s going to be fun.

Baseball is a fun game. It beats working for a living.
Squid Game' came at a moment where I was really thinking seriously about my acting career, so I wanted to put this into action finally.
Acting in a new movie or series will be challenging, especially after 'Squid Game,' so I intend not to limit myself to a specific genre.
Squid Game' is a story about human nature that most people can already relate to, yet everything is communicated through easy-to-follow childhood games.
Now, I feel very comfortable with the 'Squid Game' team, so I can slowly get used to this success with people. But when I was at home by myself watching this growth, I was like, 'What?'
The most fun part about working out is being done - getting through the workout, let's be honest. But that feeling afterward? Yeah, that's worth it.
Of course, I always hoped Squid Game would do well. But no one could have predicted it would be this big. In just one month, everything changed.
