My next guests are the stars of the biggest television show in the world, Squid Game. It is streaming now on Netflix. Here are Lee Chung-jae, Park Hae-soo, Lee Han-jin, and Chung Ho-young. Welcome, welcome to The Tonight Show. Thank you so much for being here. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for having us. This is a big deal. I just want to start. Chung-jae, you're the first one we meet in the show, and you're so charming and like lovable. We're rooting for you. I know that you're famous in Korea for mostly playing villains in a movie. How can that face be a villain? You're so friendly and likable. Can you tell everyone what Squid Game is about? It's frightening. It is shocking, but it's also really beautiful. And right now, it is number one on Netflix in 90 countries. It is bigger than... Hae-soo, when did you realize the show became so big? Even right now. Right now? Yeah, right now. I want to meet Jimmy's brother. That's my man. I love it. Come on. I'm so happy. Han-jin, what do you think people around the world are connecting to? Yeah, it is. It's bizarre how the combo of that, the children's game, but also people desperate kind of to just change their life and get money. And it starts with the creepiest doll. And I have to show you, for people who haven't seen, I got this sent over to us. This came in the mail. This came in the mail for me. Yeah, thank you so much. Wait, no, if you haven't seen this, wait, watch this. So this is what they played, red light, green light, but this giant doll looks at them, okay? And she says, green light, and her head is turned around. When she says, red light, she turns around and her eyes are cameras. And if you move, you get shot. But I know, but also this robot is based on a character, right, from Korean textbooks. Like when kids are growing up, you know who this, who is this? Who is this psycho robot? When we were at the school, there were, like, characters. One is a boy and one is the girl. The boy's name was Cheolsook, and the girl's name was Younghee. And she's the one. Yeah. Chungjae, this show is pretty dark, but your character is optimistic and funny. And I was just wondering, is there anything that didn't make it to the show that was, or maybe things that were in the show that were improvised? I remember that scene. It's in the first episode. No spoilers. I'm not giving any spoilers tonight, so everyone knows. Hyesoo, you became a dad the day Squid Game premiered. Is that correct? Yes, it is. Thank you so much. Interestingly, it was 4 p.m. Korean time, and I met my baby at 3.50 p.m. I think that was the first time I met a baby, so it was a blessing for me. Yeah, little baby Squid. How cute. Come on. I want to show everyone a clip from the show. This is Squid Game. Take a look. Do not kiss me. Fill my heart with song. And let me sing forevermore. Long for worship and adore. Please be true to us. Thank you. I love it. The cast of the show is streaming now on Netflix. Hey, hey, hey.
