Editor cut VIP scenes, focusing Squid Game on players

The editor of Squid Game Season 3 cut several VIP scenes to maintain the show's tension and focus on the players' experiences. This decision aimed to keep the audience emotionally invested in the games. The editor, Nam Na-young, revealed that excessive VIP scenes diluted the emotional impact of the games. The remaining VIP scenes still served to advance plot points, such as the twist involving Player 222, without distracting from the main narrative. This editing choice helped maintain the season's momentum, especially during the finale. The focus on the players and the games, rather than the VIPs, ultimately made the season more compelling for viewers.
