The Foreigner Actors that Grabbed Our Attention in Squid Game, and One is a Filipino!

-

 To anyone who watched Squid Game, you might have noticed these 2 foreigners were part of the 456 players vying for the 45.6B won in the deadly game. They are Anupam Tripathi and Chris Chan. 


Anupam Tripathi portrays Player 199, Ali in the series. His character is an exploited Pakistani migrant worker who is not being paid by his employer for months. In episode 6, he met his demise when he was betrayed by Sang Woo (Park Hae Soo) and he lost in the marble game. It was one of the most devastating scenes in the drama. 

His role and his portrayal of a trusting friend found its way into our hearts. And many were saddened by his untimely death. 

Tripathi can also be seen in The 8th Night.

Another player in the deadly Squid Game is portrayed by Filipino Christian Lagahit, aka Chris Chan. He portrays Player 276 in the series and was part of the tug of war game with the main characters played by Park Hae Soo and Lee Jung Jae.

Surprisingly enough, these two were seen together also in the recently concluded The Devil Judge and in the movie Space Sweepers (although they don't have a scene together). Friendship goals!
