The
wheat-free dog treats come in the shapes of sugar candies
popularised by the series, as well as the guards in pink
jumpsuits and black masks who appear in the nine-part thriller,
said shop owner Lee Jin-sun, who has a one-year-old Maltese
poodle named Geumdong.
"We can't go to Halloween parties these days (due to COVID-19).
So, after watching the Squid Game, I came up with the idea of
baking these cookies my dog loves," she said, of the treats in
which she uses rice and coconut powder instead of wheat, and
beetroot and carob for colouring.
Lee's one-on-one, in-person class is already fully booked for
October.
"It's like a dog version of Squid Game. It's so much fun and
seems like the dog loves it too," said Hwang Hye-won who joined
Lee for baking class this week, offering a cookie to Geumdong
dressed in a dog-sized costume, themed like the green tracksuits
from the show.
"Squid Game", which debuted on Sept. 17, became Netflix's
most-watched original series in its first month, helping the
world's largest streaming service add 4.38 million new
subscribers.
