"Look at hers, this is a disaster!"

Can you complete this ‘Squid Game’-inspired challenge?

Location: Brown Butter Café, Singapore

Customers at this café are trying to break apart a Dalgona candy

without damaging its shape

in a challenge reminiscent of Netflix hit ‘Squid Game’

In the show 456 cash-strapped contestants compete in childhood games

for a prize of 45.6 billion won ($38.66 million)

(SOUNDBITE) (English) CO-OWNER AND CREATIVE DIRECTOR, BROWN BUTTER CAFE, PEARLYN TAN, SAYING: "So we actually, we are trying to do brand awareness and I happened to watch the show. So me and my marketing team, all of us we came up with this….. We didn't know that it will take off so well, I mean we went viral on TikTok.’’

Luckily for these customers the only punishment they will face

is not winning a prize

(SOUNDBITE) (English) 32-YEAR-OLD SOFTWARE ENGINEER, WANG CHEN, SAYING: "I think I almost made it. There's this little chip here. I think if we are so strict as in the game, in the real TV show...I’m gone!"
