Player 230, nicknamed Thanos, was played by South Korean rapper T.O.P in Squid Game Season 2, released in December 2024, and quickly became one of its most memed characters. Sigma Boy, originally a Russian pop track by Betsy and Maria Yankovskaya from 2024, spread worldwide on TikTok and YouTube Shorts at the same time. Fans merged the two trends into edits that loop Thanos dancing and posing to the chorus, and the pairing stuck because both the character and the song project the same exaggerated confidence.
