SquidGame creator Hwang Dong-hyuk has teased a rough release date timeline for Season 2 of the hit survival drama, saying it should arrive in 2023 or 2024.🙌
Squid Game creator Hwang Dong-hyuk has an update on when season 2 may release on Netflix. The South Korean dystopian thriller, which follows a group of players competing in a deadly tournament for cash, was a global sensation in 2021. Squid Game became the most-watched Netflix show in 90 countries within 10 days of its release, and ultimately the streaming service's most-watched show of all time, earning 1 billion hours viewed in its first 28 days on the platform.
Squid Game's popularity was enough to garner a season 2, which Netflix announced earlier this year. Not many details about Squid Game season 2 have been disclosed, but Hwang has confirmed that protagonist Seong Gi-hun and game overseer Front Man will return in the follow-up installment. Hwang also recently hinted that Squid Game season 2 will introduce more deadly games that will be"even better" than season 1.
Despite Squid Game's creators not having much to share about how the story will continue, the movement on the show is still exciting for fans who ravenously binged through all nine episodes of season 1 last year. However, shows that become surprise smash hits always face the risk of disappointing in their second installment, so Hwang will likely be taking his time to craft the script and build on the ideas introduced in the hugely successful Squid Game season 1.
Of course, Squid Game has done more than just bring the world another entertaining show to watch. Squid Game has also made a significant cultural impact, putting Korean entertainment under a global spotlight and serving as a gateway for many into the world of K-drama. Thanks to Squid Game and other successful endeavors like the Academy Award-winning Parasite and Apple's Pachinko, not to mention the wild popularity of K-pop, interest in Korean content is on the rise.
