Three film titles directed by "Squid Games" landed on Netflix's U.S. platform

Hwang Dong-hyuk's "The Melting Pot" is based on true events and revolves around a teacher who has just started working in a school for the hearing impaired. When he discovers that the school's teachers have been abusing his students, he tries to get the truth out, only to find that the surrounding community is struggling to cover up the truth.

Odd Her is much lighter than Squid Games and The Melting Pot, which tells the story of a 74-year-old woman who escapes her imprisonment in a nursing home in an unusual way. After wandering to a strange photo studio and taking photos, she reappears as a 20-year-old woman, which leads to a series of warm, funny, and touching stories.

Namhansanseong is the latest of the three and was released in 2017.

All three films can be seen on Netflix for Viewers in the United States. While they may not be as popular as Squid Games, they may help them survive as fans wait for a second season.
