The stardom of Korean series movie, Squid Game, has been taking the world by storm upon its story about surviving through all the deadly matches from the tournaments based on children’s game for a substantial prize that could change a people’s life, which originated a one-of-a-kind series movie and i am amazed how visionary they are since they released them on September 17th, which is before Halloween and they know their fans are going to wear a costume like a pink soldier, creepy doll, player, frontman, salesman or even the creator of the game in order to increase the trend traffic.
Smart move!
But wait, before we jump right into further, there are some spoiler alerts to discuss about the upcoming of Squid Game.
I am truly say that the whole show is an absolute piece of art, It is literally like a speech that unveils the untold truth of life. It is not about the plots, characters or games, if you really pay attention to the every details in it, you might see a bigger picture of it and it is the jaw-dropping moment that you might have to discover it by yourself. So that i do not want to ruin your good time so please skip it to this point and carry on to watch the entire series if you wish and mark my word, it is worth the time to spend on it. For real!
Now, let’s get back on track!
- Will it be a season 2 of Squid Game?
No brainer, it has to be released soon regardless since the kinda cliff hanger at the end of episode 9, the decision of dyeing red hair colour, it represents the anger, a desire of vengeance from the appearance of the “winner”, Gi-hun, really want to blow up the entire organization since he thought that was the end of the game, but sadly, he would find out the truth behind of it and the game would keep continuing for the business of gambling.
Even though, the director Hwang Dong-hyuk told the Hollywood Reporter that it was an opened ending to finish the show without keeping on any further seasons since he made it all up by himself and it is always a pressure when he thinks about it.
However, the enormous volume of fanbase keeps growing everyday, he might pull some ideas based on the fans to create for the next season. “I think that’s what I’m wrestling with right now — that I shouldn’t just view it as a huge amount of pressure, but think of all of this love and support I’m receiving as a big box of inspiration that I can leverage for season two.” he said.
Additionally, there are famous pros basketball, Lebron James, with his teammate Anthony Davis were caught on camera criticized about the end of Squid Game was not that reasonable for James following of leaving the airport to track down the organization in Squid Game after a call with them after planning to reunite with his daughter in USA.
“Get on the flight and see your f****** daughter” he joked

From that point, in an interview with The Guardian on Tuesday, Dong-hyuk fired back to James with the question: “Have you seen Space Jam 2?“. He said: “LeBron James is cool and can say what he wants. I respect that. I’m very thankful he watched the whole series. But I wouldn’t change my ending. That’s my ending. If he has his own ending that would satisfy him, maybe he could make his own sequel. I’ll check it out and maybe send him a message saying, ‘I liked your whole show, except the ending.'”
Personally, i would say James did some libel to the director Dong-hyuk and both did not want to ruin each other’s reputation, so they had to defend for their own thoughts about it since Squid Game officially became one of the biggest Netflix shows ever.
- Which characters could be returned?
Maybe some new characters will be appeared that have a bond relative to the previous characters like Ali’s wife could replace Ali to search for her justice.

Kang Sae-byeok’s younger brother, Cheol, could also appear and there are rumours that he will help Gi-hun to be a worker like the policeman, Hwang Jun-ho. Lottle people know about the part when the policeman climbed down from a secret exit, he found a random button that only made for the VIP to explode the entire organization, which could be an easter egg that younger brother or the policeman might push the button to wipe them out.
Oh Il-nam’s son could show up as the leader of the worker? Or also come to help Gi-hun for what Il-nam be careless to his own son? He must be likely as wealthy as his dad for sure, but he could be a substitution of his dad to carry on the story of making this tournament.

Frontman will absolutely be in the next season, it could be a detail story of how he was becoming a frontman for the organization. Besides, he used to be a winner in 2015 as a player 132 and we will dig deeper into the reason why he could go home with the price, but instead he chose to be the frontman. Is it the rule that a winner can choose to be a frontman voluntarily? So that Gi-hun could replace him and changed the whole system into a charity fund since Gi-hun realized that money can’t buy happiness or else they had to conflict together to take place of.
The policeman, Hwang Jun-ho, the brotherhood with the his brother had been unveiled and we all know that the shot just on the left shoulder, so no way he could be dead like that after the fall into the ocean. However, he called back to the police station for the help already, which he could be rescued from that point, but seems like the game still keep going or else he could be dead already from loosing too much blood then. I personally think that some magical would happen to him because the character had so much potentials to discover more about the secret behind the organization.
Well, Squid Game left so much energy to all the fans to be excited for the next season, we shall see what it would be happened next and we all hope that next year is the earliest comeback of the show.
