Making the first season of Squid Game cost its creator, Hwang Dong-hyuk, nine of his teeth. If you’re among the quarter of a billion viewers who watched the ultra-violent Netflix series, you might fantasise about how this happened. Was his head locked by studio execs in a ghastly contraption, a single tooth pulled for each day the script was late? Or his mouthwash swapped for corrosive acid when he failed to tie up plot strands? The reality was more pedestrian: Hwang was so busy and stressed that he totally neglected his oral hygiene. After production wrapped in 2020, he got dental implants.
制作《鱿鱼游戏》第一季让其创作者黄东赫(Hwang Dong-hyuk)失去了九颗牙齿。如果你是这部极端暴力的Netflix系列的2.5亿观众之一，你可能会幻想这是怎么发生的。他的头是否被工作室高管锁在一个可怕的装置中，每天剧本晚交一天就拔一颗牙？或者当他未能解决情节线索时，他的漱口水被换成了腐蚀性酸？现实更为平淡：黄东赫太忙太紧张，以至于完全忽视了口腔卫生。2020年制作结束后，他接受了牙齿植入手术。
