Get ready to play again—because Front Man (Lee Byung-hun) is gearing up for the next round. In a newly released teaser for Squid Game Season 2, the enigmatic leader gives fans a glimpse into the highly anticipated return of the K-drama.
The teaser, revealed during Geeked Week 2024, takes viewers back to the dangerous world of the Squid Game. The pink soldiers are suiting up, the Front Man is back in control, and Seong Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae), the protagonist, seems more troubled than ever as he dons his iconic 456 tracksuit.
Director Hwang Dong-hyuk is excited about the upcoming season, which premieres on Dec. 26. “There’s a lot of pressure, but I’ll make sure it’s worth the wait,” Hwang said in an interview with Netflix in 2023.
Season 1 introduced us to a deadly game where contestants gamble their lives for a massive cash prize. Seong Gi-hun, the down-and-out lead, will return in Season 2 as the story picks up after his shocking decisions at the end of the first season.
“The cast and crew are pouring their hearts into Season 2,” executive producer Kim Ji-yeon shared with Netflix in December. “We hope fans continue to support us!”
