Streamer confirms hit Korean show’s return as director Hwang Dong-hyuk hints at details in a message to fans
It could be the most inevitable announcement ever made, but now it is official: Squid Game will return for a second season. Netflix confirmed the news on Sunday, while offering a few hints about what is to come in the hit Korean dystopian drama.
Squid Game became Netflix’s most-watched series when it was released in September. The show tells the story of cash-strapped contestants who play childhood games for a chance of life-changing sums of money. It inspired countless memes and Halloween costumes, kickstarted sales of green tracksuits and laid bare the extent of South Korea’s personal debt crisis.
