Additionally, using data from Google and Naver search engines as well as Netflix, an attempt was made to determine which children’s games in the series garnered the most attention from viewers.

Moreover, the most searched games on Google wereidentifiedas “Sugar Honeycomb Game and Dalgona Candy”while on Naver they were “Red Light Green Light Game and Squid Game Doll”. It was observed that the obtained data were also corroborated by Netflix data. On the other hand, children’s games are considered an effective tool that can serve therapeutic recreation purposes, such as supporting individuals’ physical, mental, and emotional helth, reducing stress levels, and enhancing social interaction.
