View original image[Asia Economy Reporter Yoon Seul-gi] The costumes from the Netflix drama "Squid Game," which has sparked a global craze, are also gaining popularity as Halloween approaches in about a month.
On the 1st, U.S. online media Axios reported that Americans are frantically trying to get costumes from the drama Squid Game ahead of the Halloween festival on October 31st.
Halloween is a representative festival in the United States, celebrated on October 31st, the day before All Saints' Day, a Christian holiday. People dress up in various costumes such as ghosts or monsters and go door-to-door collecting candy or chocolate.
Axios particularly noted that the red guard costume covering the face is the most popular. People often dress up as characters from popular movies or dramas of the year for Halloween, and this year, as "Squid Game" has been a global hit, the red jumpsuit with the black mask featuring the symbols '□, ○, △' worn by the guards in Squid Game is gaining attention.
Not only the guards but also the green tracksuits worn by the Squid Game participants are quite popular. Axios even introduced a way to make the costume by wearing a white T-shirt with a green tracksuit and attaching a name tag with a number.
