Squid Game actress Lee Yoo Mi has the perfect Halloween costume this year as she transforms into the show's iconic green light, red light doll. Created by Korean filmmaker Hwang Dong-hyuk for Netflix, Squid Game is a riveting drama that explores social themes like survival and economic disparity. The story is about 456 players participating in a series of children's games for the chance to win a big cash prize. They soon discover that there's a deadly catch: only one winner will emerge from the competition, and failing to advance means sure and immediate execution.
Lee plays Ji Yeong, a young woman who comes into the games after her release from prison for killing her abusive father. Squid Game also stars an ensemble cast of Asian stars including Lee Jung Jae, Park Hae Soo, Wi Ha Joon, Jung HoHyeon, Anupam Tripathi, and O Yeong Su. Despite its gory violence, the series received attention from all over the world and is praised for its powerful storytelling and thrilling scenes. Squid Game's phenomenal success makes it Netflix's most-watched series to date.
Squid Game's popularity is evident as Halloween approaches, inspiring fans to dress as one of the characters from the show. Actress Lee kicks off the holiday by posing as the show's iconic green light, red light doll. The 27-year-old South Korean star recently shared photos of her Halloween costume on Instagram, and Squid Game fans are impressed with her perfect impersonation. Lee's transformation as the creepy robotic doll is spot on, wearing its unmistakable yellow shirt and orange jumper-dress and styling her hair in the doll's signature pigtails.

Also known as the Younghee doll, the figure appeared on Squid Game's pilot episode and has become an iconic figure for the series. In the first game, the contestants played a round of red light, green light as the 10-foot robotic doll towers before them. It sing-songs a chilling and ominous phrase as the players nervously run around. If the doll catches anyone making a wrong move, the player instantly gets shot by snipers.
What makes the red light, green light doll so creepy is that its image is actually lifted from the classic Korean character in children's textbooks. While it's meant to be friendly, Squid Game has turned it into a sinister image. The concept behind the Squid Game doll makes it the perfect Halloween costume this year, and many fans are expected to attend parties dressed as the chilling figure. Lee's uncanny take is among the best ones so far; it's an acknowledgment of Squid Game's popularity and impact on pop culture.
