Netflix has shared more preview images from “Squid Games” Season 2, increasing the anticipation from the show. Earlier, they uploaded the trailer for season 2 on November 1 and it is already having more than 17 million views.
On November 14, Netflix released some more preview images for “Squid Games” Season 2. These photos feature familiar faces like Gi-hun (played by Lee Jung-jae), Jun-ho (Wi Ha-joon), and the enigmatic Frontman (Lee Byung-hun), alongside fresh characters, each with distinct backstories that add layers to the series’ gripping themes.
Among the newcomers is Participant 333, a YouTuber named Myung-gi (played by Im Si-wan), who joins the games after burdened by debts from cryptocurrency losses. Also entering the deadly competition is Yong-sik (Yang Dong-geun), whose struggle to clear his gambling debts drives him to participate, and his mother Geum-ja (Kang Ae-shim), who is determined to protect him. Another new character is Gi-hun’s friend Jung-bae (Lee Seo-hwan), and Jun-hee (Jo Yu-ri), a former investor who lost a fortune on faulty information. Each of these individuals adds their own desperation and intensity to the games, further amplifying the stakes and tension.
The Season 2 cast also includes well-known actors Kang Ha-neul, Park Gyu-young, Lee Jin-wook, and Park Sung-hoon, whose characters’ significant stories contribute to the realistic yet high-stakes world of “Squid Game”. Their inclusion has increased the anticipation as they promise to bring raw, gripping performances that will make the survival drama even more immersive.
The tone of the preview images gives impression of the vivid, yet eerie world “Squid Game” fans know well, contrasting bright, almost fairy tale-like settings with the dark reality faced by the green track-suit-clad contestants and the ominous pink guards. The Frontman’s revealed face and masked guards also hint at some hidden motives and conflicts.
“Squid Game” Season 2 is set to premiere on Netflix on December 26.
