The director stated, "The first season of Squid Game took 12 years to complete last year. However, the show only took 12 days to become the most popular series ever.
Digital Desk: Netflix has announced that the Squid Game, a
South Korean survival drama series, will return for a second season. In a
letter shared by Netflix, the director of Squid Game hinted at a few details
regarding the show's second season.
In a letter to fans, director, writer, and director Hwang
Dong-hyuk said, "And now, Gi-hun returns." He predicted that the man
in the suit with ddakji would return. " "You'll meet Young-boyfriend
hee's as well," he continued. One of the games features Young-hee, a
motion-sensing robotic doll.
However, Netflix did not specify a release date for the new
season.
The director stated, "The first season of Squid Game
took 12 years to complete last year. However, the show only took 12 days to
become the most popular series ever.
Hwang stated last year that he would return for Season 2 of
the show.
As a result, he said, "For season two, there's been so
much demand, affection, and attention. As a result, I feel compelled to make a
second season."
Season 1 of Squid Game was released worldwide on September
17, 2021, and it quickly became Netflix's most-watched series, with 1.65
billion hours of streaming in the first 28 days alone in the United States.
"Squid Game" portrays contestants from the margins
of society vying for money in traditional South Korean children's games, with
the losers being executed.
The series increased global interest in Korean material,
encouraging global players such as Walt Disney Co., Apple Inc., and Warner
Media to invest in local-language titles and original programmes to attract
customers.
Meanwhile, Netflix's stock has risen, with the online
streaming service resuming its global success after a sudden decline in
subscribers.
It has been reported in April that it had lost 200,000
subscribers in the first quarter, the first time it had lost consumers since
2011. Netflix is betting that a second season will help halt this year's 70%
drop in stock.
It may be mentioned that the company projected it would
shrink by another 2 million customers in the second quarter.
