And within a show with many talking points, the character who has intrigued people most appears to be contestant 067 - a somewhat tragic and complex hero in the story. One of the surprise big hits of the year for Netflix is the Korean drama, Squid Game . By now most of us have watched at least some of the series and are waiting for news on season two which will surely materialise at some point considering the enormous global attention the show has garnered.

But who is 067, what happens to her, and who is the actress who plays her?

Here's all your Squid Game scoop on 067.

Who is 067 in Squid Game?

067's name is Kang Sae-byeok (she's played by the actress and model Jung Ho-Yeon) and she enters the game as a defector from North Korea. She has signed up for the game to try and win the big cash prize so that she can save her brother who is stuck in an orphanage and to give them the best chance of starting a new life. Much more information on her backstory was not provided but we do know that she and her brother are the only surviving members of her immediate family and that she was involved with the gangster, Jang Deok-su. A quiet and at times lonely-looking character, she clearly has trust issues and was not keen on teamwork in the games - other players only knew her as 067 for a large part of them. But the games do have an effect on who she is and she changes as they go on - eventually learning to trust other people and showing how strong her morals are in the process.
