The Maniqure Nail Salon on the outskirts of Kuala Lumpur has designed a set of nails for each of the show’s nine episodes.

“Red Light, Green Light” features the killer giant animatronic doll from the first episode, while “Hell” includes a picture of the red-suited game officials and a pink-ribboned coffin.

“Is it difficult to draw? Yes, a little bit, because it’s all 100% hand painting, not printing,” said salon co-owner Lim Pei Xin. “Every fine line, we have to stop breathing.”

“Squid Game” earlier this week became Netflix’s biggest original series launch, notching up 111 million viewers in less than a month.

The dystopian drama, in which cash-strapped contestants play childhood games with deadly consequences in a bid to win 45.6 billion won, has inspired countless memes, Halloween costumes and real-world recreations.

It has also sparked a debate within South Korea about toxic competitive societies, and prompted new interest in the country’s culture and language around the world.

Chin Kwan How, co-owner of the salon, said demand for the press-on version of the themed nails had come from international buyers via the business’ website, as well as locals.
