Sobre este producto
  • Premiered in September 2021, the South Korean TV series Squid Game took the world by storm, capturing the collective imagination of audiences across the globe. In a matter of weeks, it skyrocketed to become Netflix’s most-watched show ever, a testament to its unprecedented popularity and the cultural impact it wielded. However, Squid Game’s extraordinary success extends far beyond mere viewership numbers, as it transcended the boundaries of a hyper-buzzy phenomenon with a dystopian anti-capitalist flavor. This survival drama, created by the visionary mind of Hwang Dong-hyuk, demands critical analysis and exploration from a media culture perspective. Squid Game Unmasked sets out on an intellectual exploration of the complex questions and themes raised by the series. It investigates the underlying codes and symbols embedded in the show’s narrative and visual language, while analyzing its far-reaching influence on contemporary culture. This updated edition includes a new chapter reflecting on the series’ powerful conclusion in its third and final season, released in 2025, offering fresh insights into the evolution of its characters, messages, and mythos. Unveiling the deeper essence of Squid Game, this book is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the intersection of media, culture, and society. Prepare to be challenged and inspired by this compelling investigation into one of the most important television events of our time. Paolo Granata is an Associate Professor at St. Michael’s College in the University of Toronto. As an educator, an innovator, and a cross-disciplinary media scholar – nurtured by the centuries-old tradition of his Alma Mater, the University of Bologna – his research and teaching interests lie broadly in the areas of media ecology, media ethics, semiotics, print culture, and visual studies.
