Netflix has started lifting the lid ever so slightly on Squid Game season two —knowing that millions of fans worldwide are dying to know what’s going on with Lee Jung-jae’s Seong Gi-hun. Like, for instance, why is he back in the game that nearly took his life in season one? You won’t find that answered in the clues so far ( the new poster , the video of cast members debunking fan theories ), but this brand-new clip, a “special teaser” shared as part of Geeked Week, conveys tiny bit more detail. https://www.
youtube.com/watch?v=1GqzyjUbT4c There’s not even enough there for a breakdown; it’s more imagery designed to build tension and remind you why you couldn’t get enough of season one. We’ve got a freaked-out Gi-hun answering his door with a gun drawn to “greet” a masked visitor (is that you, Front Man?), a countdown clock, pink jumpsuits galore, a fireball, bullets flying, that money-stuffed giant piggy bank, and another look at Gi-hun: this time, back as Player 456, surveying a room full of tracksuit-clad competitors destined for horrific ends.
The official synopsis is: “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 456 billion won.” With director-writer-producer Hwang Dong-hyuk once again running the show, the cast includes the returning Lee as well as Lee Byung-hun (the Front Man), Wi Ha-jun (the detective), and Gong Yoo (the Salesman).
New cast members include 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. Squid Game season two arrives December 26 on Netflix. A third and final season is also on the way in 2025.
