Shocking: TOP plays a drug addict in Squid Game 2, acting is disastrous, ruining the movie

Recently, TOP surprised everyone when he took on a role related to illegal substances in "Squid Game 2". Many people think that this character has too many similarities with himself in real life.

At 3:00 p.m. on December 26 (Hanoi time), part 2 of the popular series "Squid Game" with 7 episodes was released on Netflix. The script continues to exploit folk games close to children but the quantity is much smaller.

The games in season 2 are all high-risk, but the rules require teamwork and solidarity rather than individual play. Notably, according to Newsen, the appearance of former Big Bang member TOP (real name Choi Seung Hyun) in the film was criticized right from the casting stage.

Director Hwang Dong Hyuk once said: "Please judge after watching the work." But when "Squid Game 2" officially aired, there was still much controversy about TOP's role. Many viewers thought that the male singer was showing "himself" in the film, because this character has many similarities with the scandals he had been involved in.

Accordingly, TOP plays player number 230 - Thanos, named after the famous villain in the comic book "Marvel", also a character widely known worldwide through the series "Avengers: Infinity War" and "Endgame".

Thanos is described as a famous rapper who is now out of his prime. He lost a large sum of money in a cryptocurrency scam involving another player, YouTuber Myung Gi (Im Si Wan). After the incident, he became a drug addict and was lured to a mysterious island.

When participating in the game here, Thanos often acts destructively, affecting others. He flirts with female players, threatens male players and causes many players to go to the other world because of his actions.

Initially, TOP was revealed to have little "space" to act in "Squid Game 2", but when it aired, his time was significant, not inferior to the main characters. However, many Korean newspapers have had bad reviews about the male singer's acting.

In particular, Newsen commented that the former Big Bang member's pronunciation was unclear, especially in his rap lines. Meanwhile, Sports Kyunghyang said that he was the "only acting flaw" in "Squid Game 2", with "embarrassingly clumsy acting skills".

However, there are also many opinions defending the star born in 1987 and expressing the view that he is just a singer who has moved into acting, so he cannot demand too much. Controversies related to the acting of the former Big Bang member are still on hot searches in China.

Previously, from the casting stage, TOP's appearance was criticized. The reason was because he was sentenced to 10 months in prison and 2 years of probation for smoking marijuana. At that time, director Hwang Dong Hyuk responded to the reason for choosing the male singer: "It happened a long time ago and his probation period has ended.

There have been controversial celebrities in society. I saw some people come back from the marijuana scandal, so I thought it was time for TOP to start over. However, when more people expressed their concerns than I had imagined, there were times when I wondered if I had not thought it through or made a mistake.

He is an actor I have always kept an eye on. I can't go into details about the character he plays in season 2 of "Squid Game", but it is a role that requires TOP's courage. I decided to cast him because I think he is the most suitable actor". Despite the controversy, according to the film crew, the former Big Bang member will also return in season 3.
