Squid Game: What does the carousel song mean ?

© Netflix

If the first episode of season 2 of Squid Game gave us hope, this new batch of episodes is unfortunately not up to par for many viewers, including us. Despite everything, the Netflix phenomenon is a success. Less than two weeks after its release, season 2 of Squid Game is breaking records and achieving the best start with over 68 million views in one week.

On social media, two episodes in particular have people talking. They are episodes 5 and 6, which offer to discover a new challenge. And to accompany the latter, there is a South Korean children's rhyme. If the music is (unbearably) catchy, like It’s a small world” at Disneyland Paris, it makes French-speaking spectators laugh a lot, who are victims of an auditory hallucination.

What is the song of the small merry-go-round challenge in Squid Game ?

We know Squid Game with its children's games and its deaths in case of failure. Thus, the test of the little merry-go-round (or mingle) is particularly creepy. While the players are on a rotating platform, a children's nursery rhyme plays. When the music stops, the voice announces a number and the participants must gather and lock themselves in a room. Otherwise…

In both the original and French versions, the nursery rhyme is sung in Korean. But some French-speaking spectators were able to hear a sentence in French: “coucou les Congolais”. In reality, no French word has slipped into the song, it is a question of an auditory hallucination. The actual phrase “Doong-geul-geh, Doong-geul-geh” could be translated as “Turn the carousel”. That doesn’t stop Internet users from having fun with this funny auditory hallucination on social media. Others go even further and even hear “Your grandmother wants cheddar”.

The lyrics of this children's rhyme are extremely simple. You can get to know them by watching the series in VOSTFR:

Turn the carousel< br /> Clap!
Spin the carousel
Clap!
We form a big circle
And we all dance together

We clap our hands
Clap!
And we all sing in chorus
Clap!

La, la, la, la
We have fun while dancing
Ding, ding, ding
Ding, ding, ding
Ding, ding, ding
Ding, ding, ding
We move forward hand in hand
Jumpin' and laughing

Finally, nothing very scary in the lyrics of this children's song.
