Squid Game: The Challenge contestant says players wore “nasty” tracksuit
Contestant number 326, whose real name is Melissa, revealed on TikTok that players were made to wear the same outfit the entire time they were competing in Squid Games: The Challenge.
“The outfits that they gave us is all that we had,” the contestant divulged. “They gave us one tracksuit and one pair of shoes.”
However, while the contestants only had one outfit, they did explain that the bathrooms had draws filled with underwear which they could change daily. Not only that, but the bathrooms also had body wash, shampoo, conditioner, and lotion to help them stay clean, as well as spray-on deodorant.
“It did suck that we had to wear the tracksuits,” said the contestant. “They told us we had to sleep in them too.”
They made note that in certain challenges such as Dalgona, where competitors were sat in the sand, they still had to go back to their dorm at the end of it in the same tracksuit.
“Let me tell you all, those tracksuits were getting nasty towards the end.
Squid Game: The Challenge Batch 1 (Episodes 1-5) is available to stream on Netflix now, while Batch 2 (Episodes 6-9) arrives on November 29.
