Actor Park Gyu-young met with the United Kingdom's leading daily newspaper 'The Times'.
'The Times', founded in 1785, is one of the oldest daily newspapers in the UK and is recognized for its authority. 'The Times' presented an interview with Park Gyu-young, introducing her as a rising star in the Netflix series 'Squid Game' Season 3 and as a central figure among the female characters leading the Season 3 narrative.
Park Gyu-young said, "I think the Pink Guard is an iconic character representing 'Squid Game.'" She continued, "When I auditioned, I thought I would be playing a contestant role, but it was very intriguing to be able to show this world from the perspective of the Pink Guard in a pink suit." She shared her thoughts on taking on the role of the Pink Guard 'No-eul.' She further introduced, "No-eul is a character with a strong sense of moral values that one should have as a human being." She added, "I think there's not much difference between the rabbit mask used in Season 2 at the amusement park and the Pink Guard's mask. Since No-eul has deep emotional scars, I think she didn't want to fully reveal herself. I believe there are both similarities and differences between the two appearances."
'The Times' then focused on his background and daily life. Finally, 'The Times' noted, "The world's attention is on Park Gyu-young, a rising star in the hottest show in television history. And he is ready to embrace it all." Additionally, many leading foreign media outlets are intensively reporting on Park Gyu-young, expressing high interest and expectations for him to leap as a new global star.

Moreover, it became the first Netflix series to reach number one in 93 countries within its first week of release, proving its immense global interest.
