Fans thought that the first season of Squid Game was already a well-contained story, but with the series becoming a massive success for Netflix, a second season was inevitable. Squid Game 2 is set to release this December, and we just got a new teaser for Halloween.
Check this out:
Here’s the official description for the second season:
Three years after winning Squid Game, Player 456 gave up going to the states and comes back with a new resolution in his mind. Gi-hun once again dives into the mysterious survival game, starting another life-or-death game with new participants gathered to win the prize of 45.6 billion won.
We never really knew how Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) planned to take down the games after he won, but it does look like he’s just going to join as a regular participant and try to convince everyone to stop playing the games by confirming that he’s a previous winner.
Admittedly, it doesn’t seem like the smartest plan on Gi-hun’s part, but maybe there’s some kind of mind game that he’s playing with the game masters; and him looking desperate was just part of his plan.
I’ll have to say I was one of the more sceptical people when a second season was announced, but it does seem that director Hwang Dong-hyuk had something planned for a follow-up. Let’s just hope that the series manages to captivate audiences just as much as the first one did.
Watch out for Squid Game 2 when it comes to Netflix on Dec. 26.
