It seems that most conspiracy theories or general interest, mainly surround the American or western ultra elite. Think pedophile rings, human sacrifices etc.
Then outside of the westerners there's a good bit about the ultra rich Russians.

And we have heard snippets of the Middle East wealthy...

But I rarely hear any about the ultra rich Asians. One would imagine that there has to be some out there. There is so much money being made in Asia by a select few, that I'm sure there are clubs or groups, that play into their god like level of arrogance towards the rest of the non rich.

Which had me thinking...what if Squid games was a documentary of sorts?
Similar to how our Hollywood sometimes shows snippets of what's actually going on via movies or scenes.

The Asian ultra wealthy all seem to be better insulated than their contemporaries in the west. It feels as if the governments shield them.

If there were ever something like a squid games in real life, Asia sounds most likely. Powerful but corrupt governments, willing to work with criminals for the right price . Also Asia holds the gambling capital of the world, so in theory there should be a lot of people in similar situations that were on the show.
