It is one of the biggest successes of Netflix in 2021. Squid Game it is a series around indebted people finding themselves of their own accord in a life-size game to win several tens of millions of euros and thus try to leave their rotten life. Except that the game is a huge mass killing where all the participants who lose are immediately killed. Against a background of societal criticism, Squid Game tries to send a message against the elites and the wealthy. The show will immediately have found its way into a cult work of today’s pop culture, just as it has been. La Casa de Papel. But with all its faults.
In addition to being, in our opinion, a very bad series, it is just as dangerous. By exacerbating its success, the media and fans made this wave happen Squid Game in the youngest, causing a lot of problems in the playgrounds. There will already be a season 2 to continue the story established after the climax of the first season, where the character of Gi-Hun, the big winner of the games, seems to want to do battle personally with the organizers of these mass killings. The creator Hwang Dong-hyuk previously confided that the series would highlight other societal messages but above all, he unveiled at Korea Times that a season 3, even before a start of the second, was already in talks:
“I am in talks with Netflix for Season 2 as well as Season 3. We will come to a conclusion soon. “
It is in a previous interview with Entertainment Weekly that the creator had unveiled the probable content of this second season. This should really center around Gi-Hun, once again straining him in the face of several dilemmas. Given the mechanics of the series, no doubt this story should be the backdrop for new Squid Games, with all new characters. No release date or start of filming has yet been announced.
