Squid Games Season 2: What To Expect?
In addition to offering fans multiple twists, Squid Game season 1 also served fans with a number of cliffhangers. Let’s look at the various cliff-hangers Squid Game Season 2 left us with, and the potential plotlines squid game has to offer. We see that the front man shoots the cop in his shoulder, and his body falls into the water. However, the show doesn’t really show his dead body, and given the fact that the shoulder-shot is non-fatal, it leaves room for speculation. Squid game season 2 will reveal whether Jun-Ho is alive or not. Hopefully, the second season of Squid Game will examine the bond between Jun-Ho and his brother.
We can’t wait to see as the series will show the backstory of the recruiter who located Gi-Hun and learns more about the men who created the game series. The Squid Game will also shed light on the Salesman, who is portrayed by the talented Gong Yoo, and how he ended up joining this brutal game. Several VIPs were revealed in Squid Game Season 1, but they were all wearing masks. They never revealed who they really were. Their true identities, as well as their histories, will be revealed in Squid Game season 2.
Squid Game Season 2 Release Date
Dong-Hyuk, who has also directed the thriller, wasn’t sure whether he wanted to move forward with another season. If you are new to the world of K-dramas, let us tell you that 99% of the shows produced in Korea end after only one season. Thanks to the unbelievable love the show and its team have received, Netflix officially gave the ‘go-ahead’ to Squid Game Season 2. Hwang also told a magazine that he has been able to write only a few pages for the next season as of now. Some fans may be unhappy to learn that both the OTT giant and the team behind the show have not shared any confirmation regarding the date for the second season’s release.
However, if the writer of the show is to be believed, the following season of Squid Game won’t premiere in 2023, so the probable release date is assumed to be somewhere in 2024. Till then, you can binge-watch Sweet Home, which is another Netflix original that provides suspense and twist just like Squid Game. Until we share the next Squid Games season 2 update, you can also binge-watch Alice in Borderland, which can be thought of as a Japanese version of Squid Games. It is also being streamed on Netflix.
