"The resulting opening theme to Squid Game is a masterclass in calculated imperfection, a series of thin, piercing notes that frequently break into shrill, unintended squeaks."
"I’m not a professional or an expert recorder player... We actually tried to correct it with auto-tune later on. But the director decided that the correct sound did not sound right."
Jung Jae-il, composer of Squid Game, creates unsettling music that contrasts innocence with horror. His work on the series features a discordant children's recorder theme, performed by himself despite lacking expertise. This choice resulted in a raw, imperfect sound that enhances the show's chilling atmosphere. Jung, a multi-instrumentalist, will conduct his score for Parasite at the Sydney Opera House, showcasing his versatility and innovative approach to music composition.
