Squid Game Season 2 reveals meaning behind guards' mask symbols

"Squid Game" Season 2 introduces a new character, No-Eul, who provides insight into the guards' roles. The season has become Netflix's biggest TV debut, sparking discussions about its themes and symbols. The guards wear masks with three symbols: a circle, triangle, and square. The circle represents the lowest rank, responsible for basic tasks. The triangle symbolizes armed soldiers enforcing rules, while the square denotes managers overseeing operations. The symbols also connect to the Korean alphabet. The circle stands for 'O', the triangle for 'J', and the square for 'M', together forming "OJM," the initials of "Ojingeo Geim," the show's title in Korean.
