The “Squid Game” team that attended the ceremony were director Hwang Dong Hyuk and “Squid Game” cast members; actors Lee Jung Jae, Jung Ho Yeon, Oh Young Soo, and Park Hae Soo.

“Squid Game” team won two prominent awards for “Outstanding Directing For Drama Series” and “Outstanding Lead Actor In A Drama Series,” from 14 nominations. Other nominations are for the “Squid Game” cast; Jung Ho Yeon for “Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series,” and Park Hae Soo and Oh Young Soo for “Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series.”

In his award acceptance speech, director Hwang Dong Hyuk said, 

“People keep telling me that I made history, but I don’t think I made history by myself. Because it was you who opened up the doors for “Squid Game.” Inviting us here tonight at the Emmys. I have to say we all made history together. I truly hope that “Squid Game” won’t be the last non-English series to be here at the Emmys, and I also hope this won’t be my last Emmy either. I’ll be back with Season 2.”
