Trivia[]
- Choi Woo-seong shares his name with Player 112, the person who won the 6th Squid Game. It's possible, though extremely unlikely, that these two are the same person.
- According to his player file, Choi Woo-seong's resident registration number is 760523-1347785, and he lives in Dongchun-dong, Yeonsu-gu, Incheon.[3]
Mistakes[]
- Player 006's icon shows a woman, even though he is portrayed by a man physically and in his player file.
- In his player file, Choi Woo-seong's wife and son were born on August 1, 1953 and November 17, 1973 but are listed as being 40 and 20 years old, respectively.
- Furthermore, the file states that Woo-seong fell into debt on February 1, 1991, when he would have been a minor and legally unable to enter into any financial contracts. The reason for these errors are unknown.
- Player 006 has not passed Sugar Honeycombs when the game was already over, meaning that he should've been eliminated due to time out. This is likely just a continuity error.
Behind the scenes[]
