Squid Game Season 1 introduced us to some masked egoistic and sadistic VIPs who were invited by Oh Il-nam to witness the sufferings of the people who agreed to be a part of the death games to for the sake of money.

The VIPs in Squid Game are the ultra-rich business-class people who see poor or working-class people as puppets. They are initially invited by Oh Il-Nam or Player 001, who initially made us believe that he was one of the poorer players. However, he had to quit midway because he had a terminal illness. His final scene on his deathbed was the biggest shock to fans, as Oh Il-nam revealed that he had originally conceived the idea for these games because he was bored. Similarly, like him, there were other individuals who were bored, so they funded the game for their own entertainment.

To be honest, the VIPs who arrived in the final season were way more sadistic compared to the ones we met in the first season. They were showcasing the reality of what some businessmen think of the working class; they don’t even see them as humans. For instance, when the players were dying while trying to cross the bridge in the jumping rope game, the VIPs were seen enjoying drinks and laughing while watching the brutal deaths.

Do the VIPs Control the Games or the Players?

Well, the VIPs have the capability to control both. They are billionaires who fund the games, so the deadly games are designed according to their wishes. The more brutal the game is, the more fun it becomes for these merciless spectators. The VIPs are basically the ones to fund the high-tech setups of the entire Island, so it’s obvious they would want the game to be full of bloodshed.

Besides that, initially, every person who arrived on the Island looked happy, but soon, the games broke them, especially our main protagonist, Player 456. The VIPs thrive on violence and see the players as mere puppets, so it’s them who want the games not to let any player be dead or broken, if alive.

Who Portrays the VIPs in Squid Game Season?

The actors who portray the VIPs in Squid Game are mostly those who haven’t yet made it big in the industry.

VIPs in Squid Game Season 3 were played by David Sayers, Jane Wong, Bryan Bucco, Jordan Lambertoni, and Kevin Yorn.
