Squid Game: The Challenge Winner Alleges Unpaid Prize Money in Shocking Revelations

Henry Ortiz Published December 8, 2023

Mai Whelan, the triumphant contestant and winner of Squid Game: The Challenge, has raised eyebrows with startling claims against Netflix in a recent interview with Time magazine. Despite the show’s promise of a substantial jackpot of $4.56 million for the winner, the Vietnamese immigrant alleges that the final episode was filmed ten months ago, and she has yet to receive the prize money from the streaming giant.

Delayed Payouts and Frustrations: In a candid interview, Mai Whelan expressed her frustration, drawing a parallel with Tom Cruise in Jerry Maguire and exclaiming, “Show me the money!” Her comments came after the premiere of the last episode on Wednesday, shedding light on the delayed fulfillment of Netflix’s commitment to award her the prize money.

The Winning Moment: Mai’s victory unfolded in the final rounds of a rock, paper, scissors competition against Player 451, Phill Cain. Each successful round earned contestants a key, with the potential to unlock a safe containing the coveted prize. Mai emerged victorious as she selected the correct key, revealing a golden credit card within the safe.

Unfulfilled Promises and Future Plans: Despite her triumph, Mai emphasizes that Netflix has not followed through on its commitment to provide her with the prize money. Upon receiving the funds, Mai has intentions to contribute to causes close to her heart, particularly environmental initiatives. Additionally, she plans to explore options for a retirement facility located outside her current residence in Fairfax, Virginia.

Mai Whelan’s revelations add a layer of intrigue to the aftermath of Squid Game: The Challenge, raising questions about the transparency of prize distribution on reality shows. As the allegations unfold, fans and critics alike await Netflix’s response and resolution to ensure that promises made to the contestants are duly fulfilled.
