Netflix changes scenes in Squid Game after complaints

Noooo, I really can't get enough of it. I'm, just like the whole world I believe, so into Squid Game. So I've already looked up all the Easter eggs, all the behind-the-scenes facts, and so on. I think I'm now a real expert. Did you know, for example, that the actor Lee Jung-jae, who plays Seong Gi-hun, was an incredibly muscular hottie about fifteen years ago? No? Look that up then, because you won't regret it.

But what you might not have known is that Netflix had to make some adjustments to the series. A number of scenes have changed after complaints, so if you're going to rewatch it, Squid Game will be a little different. I don't necessarily know if we'll notice it: it's about phone numbers.

Because the creators thought it was a decent plan to use real numbers for the scenes where phone numbers are shown. And you can probably guess the outcome. HAHA. The owner of the number was finally able to reach Netflix because he was called day and night by numbers from all over the world. It was so bad that his phone was dead in no time. The calls just wouldn't stop. Poor guy.

So that's what has changed: the real number has been changed to a non-existent number. Honestly: how could they think this was a clever plan? Whether it became such a monster hit or not, you wouldn't use a random real phone number, would you? You would think so, but in the Netherlands, that happened sometimes too. In Loverboy for example. How do I know that? Because I was such a childish girl that I actually called that number. It belonged to a girl who absolutely did not appreciate this.
