If you have plans to rewatch Squid Game<\/a>, you may well notice that something is missing from one of the episodes.<\/p>\n

The change occurs in the very first episode when Seong Gi-hun is on the subway and he is given a business card by someone acting very mysteriously. The problem for Netflix arose because of that business card as the number shown on it was actually a real one.<\/p>\n

According to the website Money Today<\/a>, the unfortunate man who owns the number has been getting more than a few calls since the show aired \u2013 and it is understandably not ideal for him.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt has come to the point where people are reaching out day and night due to their curiosity,\u201d he told the site. \u201cIt drains my phone\u2019s battery and it turns off.\u201d The business card is the catalyst for Seong to enter the games so it would seem people are calling the number to see if Squid Game is a true story<\/a>.<\/p>

Realising they have made something of a faux par, Netflix will be trimming the scene, telling the ABC: \u201cTogether with the production company, we are working to resolve this matter, including editing scenes with phone numbers where necessary.\u201d<\/p>\n

Problems with business cards aside, Squid Game has been a monster-sized hit for Netflix \u2013 at this point, it is all but certain that Squid Game season two will be announced imminently. Let\u2019s just hope that some poor person doesn\u2019t get inundated with calls when that eventually airs.<\/p>\n
