‘Squid Game’ creator Hwang Dong-hyuk wrote the show in 2009 but was rejected by studios for 10 years. He once had to stop writing the script + sell his $675 laptop due to money struggles. Today, it’s #1 in 90 countries + set to become the most-watched show in Netflix history.

Greg Russo: “The story idea really is everything. It’s the beginning of everything we do, everything follows that idea. To me, I think that’s the hardest part of screenwriting. Finding the idea.” #screenwriting
