Netizens are disgusted by the behavior.
Recently, a viral moment of Squid game has sparked a ruthless and controversial trend on social media. Influencers are recreating the lottery scene with homeless people, offering them bread or a lottery ticket, in hopes of creating a viral video.
Not only did a Korean influencer take part, but now it has also spread overseas.
An English influencer offers a homeless person a scratch card or some bread. The man accepts the scratch card.
He gives the man a coin to scratch off the ticket. However, when the man wins nothing and asks if he can keep the coin, the man demands it back.
Then he tramples the bread in front of the man.
Many comments expressed disapproval of the exploitative and tasteless excuse of the content. Others also pointed out the irony of the show’s message that the rich exploit the poor for entertainment as the influencer did.
