Squid Game is returning for Season 2, so be ready for another round of red light, green light. Read on to learn the precise date of the second season’s Netflix launch of the well-liked South Korean drama, which returns with fresh episodes this week.
Three years after winning the 45.6-billion-won prize, past winner Seong Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) makes a comeback to the arena in the upcoming Squid Game chapter. He’s on a mission to permanently end the deadly game, though, rather than merely competing for money or trying to survive. The goal of Player 456 is to defeat the enigmatic Front Man, who is the brains behind Squid Game.
According to the official Season 2 summary, “Player 456 gave up traveling to the States three years after winning Squid Game and returns with a new resolution in his mind.” “Gi-hun returns to the enigmatic survival game, launching a new life-or-death match with fresh players hoping to take home the 45.6-billion-won prize.”
Some old characters, such as Lee Jung-jae, Lee Byung-hun, Wi Ha-jun, and Gong Yoo, are returning in the next season of Squid Game. Yim Si-wan, Kang Ha-neul, Park Gyu-young, Lee Jin-uk, Park Sung-hoon, Yang Dong-geun, Kang Ae-sim, Lee David, Choi Seung-hyun, Roh Jae-won, Jo Yu-ri, and Won Ji-an follow in the footsteps of the returning cast.
Director Hwang Dong-hyuk became the first Asian to win Outstanding Directing for a Drama Series, and the first season of Squid Game won six Primetime Emmy Awards. For their roles, actors Lee You-mi and Lee Jung-jae were also honoured.
