The second season of "Squid Games" is officially announced!

Netflix suddenly announced last year's global phenomenon-level hit series "Squid Game", the pilot trailer for the second season -

The trailer is a huge-animated animator, Young-hee, with a flash of eyes showing a "2" with the caption: "Red light, green light!" The second season of Squid Games is officially back! ”

In the first season, she was a horror doll in the "123 Wooden Man" game, impressing too many viewers.

Additionally, the male protagonist Sung Ki Hoon (Lee Jeong Jae), Huang Renhao (Lee Bingxian), and the man in the suit (Kong Liu) with the picture film may all return, as screenwriter, director, and creator Huang Dong Hyuk can't help but reveal in advance in his letter to the audience.

Look at director Hwang Dong Hyuk's message containing spoilers "A new game has begun" It took 12 years for the first season of "Squid Games" to meet everyone last year, but it took only 12 days for "Squid Games" to become the most popular series in Netflix history. As the writer, director, and producer of "Squid Game", I would like to extend my greetings to everyone, and thank you for watching and loving "Squid Game".


Squid Game Season 2 Announced

Season 2 of The Squid Game announced the return of Kihoon. Ki-hoon, the frontman and Yeong-hee's boyfriend are also said to be withdrawn. Maybe the person in the suit can come back. It's a comeback that's so exciting to hear just about it. So let's wait for Squid Game 2 and think about how Season 2 will go.



"Squid Games" was really hot last year, and last year's first season was very well received, with a Rotten Tomatoes freshness rating of 95%!


Not only that, but the first season set a rating miracle last year, with 142 million members watching in the first four weeks of Netflix, setting a record for the first four weeks of streaming dramas in history, and the first four weeks of viewing reached 1.65045 million hours! This super high record, for the time being, no episode can surpass.

Squid game season 2 release date 2022

Squid Game Season 2 will unfortunately not be available on the popular streaming service in July 2022. In an interview with People Magazine, Lee Jung-Jae (Seong Gi-hun), hinted that fans might still have to wait a while for Season 2. "It appears that [Hwang Dong-hyuk] is having a lot of difficulties writing the script. Actually, I intended to inquire about it with director Hwang."


Squid game season 2 predictions

The squid game ends with Kihoon winning the game. But not only that, but you don't get on a plane to see your beloved daughter, you don't ride like you're going to stand up to them. This allows us to see that he will face off against the Squid Game organizers in Season 2. I think Season 2 is going to be about the frontman, not the genitals. So, the story of Hwang In-ho and Lee Byung-hun. I think the prequel will probably cover why Hwang In-ho became the frontman. I feel like the story of Hwang In-ho becoming a frontman and the story of Sung-Ki-hoon going against it are going to come at a crossroads.

In fact, you can think of the Hunger Games series as a survival movie like The Squid Game. The Hunger Games end with the protagonist winning, but the next Hunger Games is played by the 'winners'. Squid Game Season 2 can also be played as a squid game by the winners. The same way the game progresses can be boring, so it's a way to change the criteria for choosing participants so that both the old protagonist and the new ones appear.



But I don't think the reward for winning is as much for the money as the winners to participate. It will lead to the winners having no choice but to join the game, right? This situation in itself can lead to a different kind of enjoyment.

I think Hwang Joon-ho, who fell off a cliff in Season 2, could come back to life. As with all movies, you can come back alive unless death comes out accurately. The director's previous announcement mentioned that if Season 2 of Squid Game came out, it would address issues related to the police. Now that Hwang Joon-ho, who chased him into the squid game to find his older brother in the game, was a cop, it's much more likely that he will appear.

I think the process of Lee Byung-heon becoming a frontman and the process of Sung-Ki-hoon chasing the frontman will be half-and-a-half, and eventually Gen Ki-hoon will become the 2nd frontman. I think there's going to be a police intervention in the part of Gen Ki-hoon chasing the frontman.


The Squid game was such a huge success that there was a blast, a craze. The Korean drama has led to unprecedented success around the world. It is believed that this factor must be accurately identified and dissolved, so that Season 2 will be a success. Like a house of paper, I hope the series is all successful.
