The South Korean drama Squid Game has become sensational all over the world due to its attention-seeking universal theme of class disparity and the grandeur production value. Very little CGI has been used throughout the series, and every set has been created physically, from those twisting stairs to that creepy doll. Though Netflix has kept an eye on tiny details, including Easter eggs and clues, they forgot a one really important thing.

For those who are unaware, the card that was being used in the series contained a phone number to contact the game recruiters. What the streaming giant forgot was to check if it is a real number or not. It has turned out to be a real number of a man in South Korea who has reportedly said that he has received thousands of calls since the release of the hit show.

As per one report, the man said that the callers were asking about how to enter the game or whether it was real. After being on air with the number for a couple of weeks, Netflix has finally taken action to fix this giant mishap. The streaming giant has said that they will do whatever they can to protect the identity of the man whose number was on the card in Squid Game.
