The 77-year-old actor said he's found it hard to handle the "volume of calls" he's received. "Squid Game" actor Yeong-su Oh reportedly told the South Korean TV show "How Do I Play" that he was having trouble dealing with the number of calls he's receiving about acting opportunities after the surprise popularity of the Netflix show. "Squid Game" is now the most-watched series on the platform after receiving 111 million views within a month. However, Variety reported that co-CEO Ted Sarandos said about the show's early success in September: "we did not see that coming, in terms of its global popularity."

It makes me think, 'I need to calm down, organise my thoughts, and hold myself back right now,'" he said according to South Korean outlet Soompi. "So many people have been contacting me, and because I don't have a manager to help me, it's hard for me to handle the volume of calls and messages I've been receiving, so my daughter has been helping me." The "Squid Game" actor continued: "Things have changed quite a bit. Even when I go out to a cafe or somewhere like that, I now have to be aware of [how I appear to others]. It's made me think, 'Being famous is tough, too.'"

Whilst the series is fictional, Insider recently spoke to a number of Millenials in South Korea who said their lives aren't that different than the characters in the show due to an unprecedented debt crisis in South Korea. "I consider myself lucky that I managed to keep my debt under $50,000," Kim Keunha told Insider. "I'm very aware of how much financial trouble I'm in right now, but there's very little I can do to change my situation." Thousands of union workers in South Korea also recently protested in "Squid Game" outfits calling on the government to improve worker's rights. Hwang Dong-hyuk, the creator and director of "Squid Game," told IndieWire that the story is based on issues in the world including the economic crisis in South Korea.

How to earn from Google?

You can connect a Google AdSense account to your search engine to make money on contextually-relevant ads placed into the search results. Advertisers compete for placement in the search results, and when someone clicks on one of their ads, you can make a portion of the revenue.

We're in the process of creating a new system for publishers seeking to monetize their search engines. To prepare for this change, we’re disabling the current system effective April 2022. This will apply to search engines created in both the Programmable Search Engine control panel and in AdSense . Publishers without existing monetized search engines will be unable to monetize their engines. Ads will continue to show on these engines, but revenue sharing will not be available while we are preparing for the new system to be implemented. In the future, the new system of monetization will be opened up to publishers on an invitation only basis. For publishers that have at least one existing monetized search engine, there will be no change in behavior. These publishers will be able to monetize both existing and newly created engines.
