Few shows have captured the imaginations of the entire planet out of seemingly nowhere quite like Hwang Dong-hyuk's surreal survival game show thriller Squid Game did last year.

Yet, even with the deadly versions of the children's games seen within the barbaric competition themselves often leading to some massively shocking and unsettling developments, those stunning beats pale in comparison to the level of surprise conjured up in the revelation of none other than sweet old man Oh Il-nam being the one behind the entire Squid Game in the first place.

In actual fact, though, this jaw-dropping reveal could actually be spotted from the very first moment the game's creator rocked up on the scene, with Il-nam's boasting of the playing number "001" on his clothes alluding to the fact that he was granted entry to the comp first due to being its maker.

Along with this numerical clue, Il-nam being completely unfazed by the horrific nature of the very first "red light, green light" game also acts as another hint at his knowledge of what is on the horizon due to having a hand in creating the madness in the first place.
