Some participants in the reality show Squid Game: The Challenge have suffered health problems such as pneumonia, injuries, and psychological trauma. The reality show is produced by an online entertainment platform and is being filmed in Bedfordshire, England.

Express Solicitors - a firm that specialises in personal injury legal matters in the UK - said it was representing two contestants on the show Squid Game: The Challenge .

The two unnamed players said they did not anticipate that they would have to risk their health by taking on the lengthy challenges outdoors in cold weather.

Previously, the show's production unit also admitted that 3 out of 456 contestants had to receive medical treatment during the filming of the first challenge. However, the producer said that no contestant suffered serious health damage. This information was given after some information said that contestants participating in the show were exhausted during the filming.

"The participants initially thought they were participating in a fun, exciting program. Those who were injured and suffered health damage did not anticipate the consequences they would have to endure. Some participants were injured after having to film some physical challenges in cold weather for a long period of time," said a representative of the law firm.

The reality show Squid Game: The Challenge will air on an online entertainment platform next week. The show is based on the Korean series Squid Game .

In this reality game show, contestants from many countries around the world will compete in challenges to find the winner of 4.56 million USD in cash (equivalent to more than 110 billion VND). This is considered the largest prize ever seen in the history of reality TV shows.

In the original series, players from poor backgrounds or in financial trouble decide to participate in a game that presents a series of seemingly simple challenges. Players will have to risk their lives in the process of overcoming the challenges in the hope of getting their hands on the prize and getting out of their financial problems.

Squid Game is considered a global phenomenon in 2021. Therefore, the reality show based on this movie is also attracting a lot of attention.

Currently, the production team of Squid Game: The Challenge confirms that no official lawsuit has been filed by any player. They also confirm that the production process has always considered the safety of all players.
